How to use logging for print statements inside a python package?
I am working on a Django project which uses some packages that print statements out to the console (some of these packages are by made me). These print statements represent important info and cannot be removed just by commenting out the prints. Can someone guide me as to how to redirect such print statements to a logger? Also what would be the best practice for printing stuff to console while developing a package? -

Invalid block tag 'endwith' Django
I have a Django template which is quite minimal but still throws an error at me, here it is : {% load static %} {% with somevar="somethingcool" %} {% extends 'myapp/ElementBase.html' %} # some html {% endwith %} I get the error "Invalid block tag on line 5: 'endwith'. Did you forget to register or load this tag? " which makes no sense to me. Any idea what i'm missing here ? -
How to improve unit test migration setup with Django?
I have created a Django project, which has more than 150 migration files. While running the unit tests, the setup itself is very much time consuming because Django first drops the database and creates a new test database and runs all migrations. I have tried using --keepdb flag, but with this approach the problem is that ensuring the base setup is clean is not guaranteed. One approach I can think of is using the --keepdb flag along with 2 additional steps- Before starting test, drop database, re-create from a database dump. Which will be way faster than running the migrations Run tests with --keepdb flag Is there any other approach we can take to reduce the total setup time? -

Django postgres django.db.utils.OperationalError by running from Git Repo
I have pushed my Django Projekt with Postgres DB in GitHub and want to run it on a Windows Server. On the server Postgres was installed, in cloned Git Repo DB connection settings were adjusted. However, by running the django server it crashes with an error: conn = _connect(dsn, connection_factory=connection_factory, **kwasync) django.db.utils.OperationalError Postgres is running at the time, all libs are installed. My settings.py DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2', 'NAME': 'Name', 'USER': 'User', 'PASSWORD': 'PW', 'HOST': 'localhost', 'PORT': '5432', } } On the server there is another Django Project connected to the same DB, but i have read that it should not be a problem to share the same User and DB between 2 projects. Maybe someone encountered the same problem? -

Django-Elasticsearch-Dsl does not create an index
I am working on a project and want to index an existing models.Model class to search for it.

How to make Django modifiy JSONField value effictively
With MySQL as database backend, I make Django ORM to update the following JSONField value { "01-task1": {"data":"huge data here"} } just add a new element , "02-testing": {} but I got the following sql log (0.000) UPDATE `by_jsontree_store1` SET `store_type` = 1, `user_id` = 2, `data` = '{\"01-task1\": {\"data\": \"huge data here\"}, \"02-testing\": {}}' WHERE `by_jsontree_store1`.`id` = 1; args=(1, 2, '{"01-task1": {"data": "huge data here"}, "02-testing": {}}', 1) It looks like Django rewrite the whole content of that JSONField. Imaging if the original content is huge, like 100MB, what could happen. Is there any trick could handle that effectively? -

Update the same template without refreshing from different views in Django
I am implementing a geospatial web app where everything is contained within one template in Django. At the moment I want to update a div in the template to display a Plotly graph, which is most easily created with Python and then passed to the template as a template variable. Is there a way I can update the variables returned, and then update the displayed template without refreshing, from a different view which renders the template initially? -

Add links to non-model items in Django admin
I have a few utility tools within my existing Django app, eg. a view which allows Django admin users to send an email to users, or generate embed codes for external websites, etc. I want to add links to these tools to the Django admin index – what's the best way to go about this? I know I can override the admin index template and (presumably) manually add a list of URLs, but this doesn't feel very "Django". The URLs for these utilities live in my app's urls.py – should I try extracting them out into their own app somehow? I really just want to add a box like the one shown here, which links to three or four URLs – there must be a way! -
