How do celery workers communicate in Heroku
I have some celery workers in a Heroku app. My app is using python3.6and django, these are the relevant dependencies and their versions: celery==3.1.26.post2 redis==2.10.3 django-celery==3.2.2 I do not know if the are useful to this question, but just in case. On Heroku we are running the Heroku-18 stack. As it's usual, we have our workers declared in a Procfile, with the following content: web: ... our django app .... celeryd: python manage.py celery worker -Q celery --loglevel=INFO -O fair one_type_of_worker: python manage.py celery worker -Q ... --maxtasksperchild=3 --loglevel=INFO -O fair another_type: python manage.py celery worker -Q ... --maxtasksperchild=3 --loglevel=INFO -O fair So, my current understanding of this process is the following: Our celery queues run on multiple workers, each worker runs as a dyno on Heroku (not a server, but a “worker process” kind of thing, since servers aren’t a concept on Heroku). We also have multiple dynos running the same celery worker with the same queue, which results in multiple parallel “threads” for that queue to run more tasks simultaneously (scalability). The web workers, celery workers, and celery queues can talk to each other because celery manages the orchestration between them. I think it's specifically the broker that … -
Post Request in NESTED API from the FrontEnd
I have a question regarding a post request to a nested api. Say we have an API looking like this : [ { "id": 2, "name": "John Smith", "age": 34, "dob": "21-06-2021", "image": null, "party_details": [ { "id": 2, "party": 2, "adress": "Oxford Street No1", "date": "22-06-2021", "arrival": "09:30 PM" } ] } ] How do you make a post request from the frontEnd to enter data in both Models at the same time. Must I add that the API is build in DRF and these are two models with a relationship between them and a nested serializer. One is User and the other is party_details. It work's fine in POSTMAN but I just can't find a way to upload data from the frontEnd I tried Axios but I can't find a way to also send data to the party_details model at the same time. I have no ideea how to approach this. Any help will be much apreciated! Thank you for your time -

Django Forms Customization
I have a page that displays products that have been ordered and I want to give the user the ability to leave a review on their products which have been ordered. I have a review model as well, but when rendering the form it will list all of the products available on the website when I want only the products the customer has ordered to display. Is this possible? I am unsure how to accomplish this with django. This is the form class ReviewForm(forms.ModelForm): class Meta: model = Review exclude = ['user', 'date'] widgets = { 'product': forms.Select(attrs={ 'class': 'form-control' }), 'rating': forms.NumberInput(attrs={ 'class': 'form-control', 'placeholder': '5.0..' }), 'comment': forms.Textarea(attrs={ 'class': 'form-control' }) } This is the view with the get request only class MyOrdersView(LoginRequiredMixin, View): def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs): try: order = ShoppingCartOrder.objects.filter(user=self.request.user, ordered=True) form = ReviewForm() context = { 'object': order, 'form': form } return render(request, 'my_site/my_orders.html', context) except ObjectDoesNotExist: messages.warning(request, 'You do not have any orders') return redirect('all_products') And if needed this is how I am displaying the form on the page <div class="container w-25 mb-5"> <form> {% csrf_token %} {% for field in form %} <div class="form-group px-3 my-3"> {{ field.label_tag }} {{ field }} … -
how to send reset password email at the creation of my user in django API?
I build an API with django and I'm automating the welcome email at creation of one user with Sendinblue. I have no problem at this step. (so we are at the url /add_user/) I have a second url to send a link (uid + token) to a user (thanks to his email). For that I use an external package : djoser. So I use the url of djoser /auth/users/reset_password/ and /auth/users/reset_password_confirm/ My dream would be to combine these 2 functionnalities in the single url /add_user/ My problem is that the logic in /reset_password/ and /reset_password_confirm/ was written by djoser so I can't handle it. Or I don't know how ! Here is what I tried to override djoser views : in urls.py: path('custom_djoser/', ChangeCredentialsView.as_view(), name='customdjoser'), in views.py: class ChangeCredentialsView(UserViewSet): def post(self, *args, **kwargs): print("hello world") return JsonResponse({"helloworld":"success"}) got the following error : The actions argument must be provided when calling .as_view() on a ViewSet. For example .as_view({'get': 'list'}) So I removed the .as_view() in urls.py and got this error : Forbidden (CSRF token missing or incorrect.): /custom_djoser/ For me its incomprehensible because I don't use csrf token, but I tried with @csrf_exempt in a dispatch function inside my class.

How can I test unmanaged database in Django?
I'm working on a Django API that connects to an external database using unmanaged models. I want to create some objects in this database in my unit tests so I can test a few endpoints, but I cannot because this database is entirely unmanaged, there are no migrations at all for it. I have tried using the schema_editor to create the tables but it doesn't work because the schema doesn't exist. I have tried to run raw SQL to create the schema but it doesn't work. I have tried so many variations of so many different things that I honestly don't know which ones are worth describing here in detail. In my current setup I have a custom test runner that looks somewhat like this: from django.db import connections from django.test.runner import DiscoverRunner class TestRunner(DiscoverRunner): def setup_test_environment(self, *args, **kwargs): super().setup_test_environment(*args, **kwargs) with connections["unmanaged_db"].cursor() as cursor: cursor.execute( """ CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXISTS myschema; CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS myschema.mytable ( ... ); """ ) def teardown_test_environment(self, *args, **kwargs): super().teardown_test_environment(*args, **kwargs) Note that when I don't include "IF NOT EXISTS" in my raw SQL, I get errors because the schema and relation "already exist".

Django test not returning proper status code
I was writing some tests for the authentication of my website to check to see if a user already exists a particular username or not. In my main code, it is supposed to return a status code of 409 and I tried to use that status code to assert the status code that I get from my response from the tests but the tests always give me a status code 200. In short, I can't get the response to have a status code of anything other than 200 while running tests, however when I try using it from the manage.py shell it works as expected. Here's the view: views.py def sign_up(request): if request.method == "POST": username = request.POST["username"] email = request.POST["email"] password = request.POST["password"] if User.objects.filter(username=username).count() != 0: messages.add_message(request, messages.ERROR, "An account already exists with that username") return render(request, "authentication/sign_up.html", status=409) else: user = User.objects.create( username=username, email=email, password=password) user.save() return render(request, "authentication/sign_up.html") Here's the test file. class SignUpTests(TestCase): def test_account_with_username_already_exists(self): response = self.client.post(reverse("authentication:sign_up"), { "username": "yasa.zaheen", "email": "yasazaheen728@gmail.com", "password": "12345678" }) self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 409) Here is the assertion error: D:\Aurora\aurora>manage.py test Creating test database for alias 'default'...
