User should not be able to pay until he selects an address
I am Building an eccomerce webiste. So, the issue is that i wanna allow a user to pay only after he selects an address. I have tried required field of html but it seems like it didn't worked. When a user selects an address only then he will be able to pay. But currently when i click on pay button it directly redirects me to payment.

No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' error - font-awesome
Within the past couple of weeks, I've started to get an error that I haven't seen before. My project has not materially changed and so I believe that this may be a change that font-awesome has implemented. Access to CSS stylesheet at 'https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.3.1/css/all.css' from origin 'http://localhost:8000' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Any thoughts on which CORS settings in Django I have to change in order to prevent this from happening? When I hit Ctrl+F5 to refresh the page, the error goes away. When I visit another page in my project, I get the error again. Thanks! -
Use PixiJS with Django
I'm new to django and didn't have the time to fully understand it so I'm hoping someone can help me fix this. I am using this page: Generative UI - Orb Animation [pixi.js] + Frosty Elements ❄️ with the same Javascript file in it. I can use it properly without django by typing <script type="module" src="script.js"></script> in my html file but when it comes to django, I don't actually know what to do. I tried to put it in static folder and load it. It works, but there is no animation! I guess it has something to do with the applications in the script, but again I'm a newbie so I don't know what to do. Any suggestions? -

Django cron job error when pulling the new code
I'm running the Django website with some cron jobs. One of them is running every 3 mins. When I made an update, I will pull the new code: Example for my update code: # my_a.py class MyClass: pass # my_b.py from my_a import MyClass I just notice that sometimes I have an error on this cron job, some files have new code, some files do not. It raises an error: cannot import name MyClass. Does anyone face this problem? I guess the job is running at the time I pull the code but I'm not sure. -

Django : Do you need to name a tag library (templates, static, etc) with a specific folder name?

How to solve UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xff in position 0: invalid start byte
I'm trying to use Black to format my Django code. It works fine in most directories. However, I get the Unicode decode error UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xff in position 0: invalid start byte on the .py files in one directory in particular. The files are in UTF-8, but I have tried multiple different other encodings and have tried deleting and recreating files which hasn't resolved the issue. I'm working in an Anaconda environment, but deactivating that doesn't make any difference. I've also disabled most of my VS Code extensions. I have looked at many SO postings on this, but none of the suggestions thus far have helped. I'm using VS Code on a Mac and have a feeling it is something to do with the fact that in the past I have edited the same code on a Windows machine using VS Code with WSL (code synced with a GitHub repo), but can't figure out how to address it.

Sending a message to inclusion tag Django
Does anyone know how send a message from a main view to an inclusion tag . Application Main View: def post(self, request): name = request.POST.get('name', 'Anonymous') email = request.POST.get('email', 'Anonymous') subject = request.POST.get('subject', 'Anonymous') message = request.POST.get('message', 'Anonymous') contact = Contact.objects.create(name=name, email=email, subject=subject, message=message) contact.save() success(request,"Message Sent") return redirect(reverse('portfolio:home') + '#contact') Main Template with custom tags {% get_introduction_data %} {% get_about_data %} {% get_expertise_data %} {% get_client_data %} {% get_skill_data %} {% get_education_data %} {% get_experience_data %} {% get_work_data %} Supposing I wanted to pass my message from the view into my main template that is then redirected to one of my main view tags. How would I be able to pass the message considering that the message framework requires a request to store a message which is passed on to the next request . The main issue is inclusion tags do not possess their own individual request object and maybe there is a way to pass data from a main template to an included partial.

How to run SearchHeadline (a heavy function) only on the Paginated QuerySet result
I am using Django and Postgresql Full-Text Search to generate a paginated search result for my users. I rank and highlight my results. qs = ( self.filter(Q(title_vector=SearchQuery(search_term))) .annotate(rank=rank) .order_by("-rank", "pk") .annotate( title_snippet=SearchHeadline( "title", SearchQuery(search_term), highlight_all=True ) ) .distinct() ) In performance testing, I've identified that the SearchHeadline function is extremely heavy (as mentioned in the documentation) and is applied to every single row in the result - even if there are thousands of results being paginated in sets of 25. This makes the query take too long to complete. Another user on StackOverflow had the same issue as mine and discovered that only running ts_headline against the paginated results significantly improves performance (Relevant Question). I tested and confirmed that a similar approach would solve my problem. My question is how can I tweak my Django code to generate a SQL query against a query like the below example? After the Paginator applies a limit and offset to the result set, only then run ts_headline against those results only. SELECT id, ts_headline('italian', body, to_tsquery('italian', 'torino')) as headline, rank, title, location FROM ( SELECT id, body, title, location, ts_rank(body_tsvector, query) as rank FROM fulltextsearch.documents, to_tsquery('italian', 'torino') as query WHERE to_tsvector('italian', coalesce(body,'')) @@ … -

Using Smartsheet API: How do I access user data after a user is authenticated and taken to redirect url?
Context: I integrated a Node.js Smartsheet Oauth flow into my Django app by having the login button in django direct the user to the /auth url on the Node server. Once the flow is done and user logs in through Smartsheet, the redirect URL from the Smartsheet dev tools takes the user back to the Django website. Objective: I am trying to access the user data, so that before they log in a variable called user = undefined, and after they log in the variable called user is an object with a set of user data that comes from the smartsheet API. This object would include: id, email, first name, last name, etc... I have tried a few approaches: I tried to fetch data from the /callback url where the OAuth flow generates and saves token data, but I get rejections, maybe due to thoughtful security protocall Ive tried to play with "raw token requests" for current user, maybe accessing them from the Node.js server and then sending data back through a post request. I haven't get it working and it seems incorrect to post user data as it comes, and have the django app try to match the user …
