Stop Celery caching Django template
I have Django 3.24, celery 4.4.7 and celerybeat 2.2.0 setup via the RabbitMQ broker. I have have a celery task that renders a Django template and then sends it to a number of email recipients. The Django template is dynamic in as much as changes can be made to it's content at any time, which in turn rewrites the template. The trouble is that on occasions, I have to restart celery to get it to re-read the template. My question is, is there any way of forcing celery to reread the template file, without requiring a full celery restart? celery.py from __future__ import absolute_import, unicode_literals import os from celery import Celery os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'backoffice.settings') app = Celery('backoffice') default_config = 'backoffice.celery_config' app.config_from_object(default_config) app.autodiscover_tasks() @app.task(bind=True) def debug_task(self): print('Request: {0!r}'.format(self.request)) celery_config.py from django.conf import settings broker_url = "amqp://someusername:somepassword@webserver:5672/backoffice" worker_send_task_event = False task_ignore_result = True task_time_limit = 60 task_soft_time_limit = 50 task_acks_late = True worker_prefetch_multiplier = 10 worker_cancel_long_running_tasks_on_connection_loss = True -
How to Improve IFrame Loading Speed?
I am working on a project for a client who is using Square booking and would like that embedded into their website. I have added an IFrame on the site which points to their booking page on Square's website, however this IFrame loads painfully slow. I am using Django templates for the front end of the website. Is there any way to make this IFrame load faster? Is there a way to load it in the background of the homepage so that it is cached when the user goes to the booking page? -
Issue with Django blog tutorial on youtube, class view and GET method not clear
Was following a youtube tut regarding a django blog but ran into an issue. Link to video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnaB4Nb0-R8&t=607s The tut says to use the following code in the blog app's view.py file: from django.views.generic. import ListView, DetailView from .models import Post from django.views import View class Blogview(ListView): model = Post template_name = 'blog.html' When I tried to implement the code this way, I was given an error referencing something to do with GET. Looking into it, I modified my code to look like the following: from django.shortcuts import render from .models import Post from django.views import View class Blogview(View): model = Post template_name = 'blog.html' def get(self, request): return render(request,'blog.html') The above version of code works now for me. I find it frustrating why I couldn't figure out why the youtube tutorial code seemed to be much simlified and worked just as expected, whereas when I tried it word for word it failed and had to include a reference to the get method. I'll let you know I did simplify my version of the template file 'blog.html' to be something as simple as a single line of text whereas the tutorial had a template file which took all the posts … -

Rendering django model data in html
I am creating a donation application that allows donors to donate stuff. I have a screen, called available supplies.html which renders out all of the donations from the database using a for loop. If someone wants the stuff in the donation, they can click on a view button and are redirected to a page that contains details about the donation. I am struggling with rendering these details out, because I need specific data. Is there any way I can do this? Basically, I want to display data for the donation the user clicked on. My code is down bellow. Donation Model: class Donation(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=30) phonenumber = models.CharField(max_length=12) category = models.CharField(max_length=20) quantity = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True,) HTML (I want the donation data that the user clicked on to render here) {% extends 'suppliesbase.html' %} {% load static %} {% block content %} <div class="row"> <div class="col-lg-12"> <div class="box-element"> <a class="btn btn-outline-dark" href="/availablesupplies/">&#x2190; Back</a> <br> <br> <table class="table"> <tr> <th><h5>Date Posted: <strong>Date</strong></h5></th> <th><h5>Donor:<strong> User</strong></h5></th> <th> <a style="float:right; margin:5px;" class="btn btn-success" href="">Accept</a> </th> </tr> </table> </div> <br> <div class="box-element"> <div class="cart-row"> <div style="flex:2"></div> <div style="flex:2"><strong>Item</strong></div> <div style="flex:1"><strong>Category</strong></div> <div style="flex:1"><strong>Quantity</strong></div> </div> <div class="cart-row"> <div style="flex:2"><img class="row-image" src=""></div> <div style="flex:2"><p>Title</p></div> <div style="flex:1"><p>$20</p></div> <div style="flex:1"> … -
How does one count a foreign key item, esp 'author' created with Django's User model?
Need help getting a better grip with 1) accessing and counting foreign key items in Django and 2) counting foreign key item that is created through Django's built-in User: #1) The answer here suggests using Django's annotate function: eg. questions = Question.objects.annotate(number_of_answers=Count('answer')) (question being a foreign key item to answer). But it is not clear to me where this line belongs to (in the case of the example, question or answer), or which part of an app-models.py or views.py. I tested in both models.py and views.py Here are my models (only the essential lines here): class Post(models.Model): post = models.TextField(max_length=1000) author = models.ForeignKey(User, related_name="author", on_delete=models.CASCADE) class Comment(models.Model): comment = models.TextField(max_length=1000) commenter = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE) post_connected = models.ForeignKey(Post, related_name='posts', on_delete=models.CASCADE, default=None, null=True) #2) How does one access a foreign key item created using Django's built-in model, User? Should I have created a model called "Author" first? -
How do I make the django admin site rely on my custom Django Rest Framework Token Authentication?
Throughout development of my application, the authentication has worked great. Using DRF I overrode DRF's TokenAuthentication to provide an expiring token, and then overrode ObtainAuthToken to create the authentication post request view. Now I'm trying to launch the application into production with DEBUG=False. The application seems to be running fine, but the django admin site will not let me log in to my super user (yes I created it with createsuperuser and have verified it exists in the database). The error I get back is: Forbidden (403) CSRF verification failed. Request aborted. You are seeing this message because this site requires a CSRF cookie when submitting forms. This cookie is required for security reasons, to ensure that your browser is not being hijacked by third parties. If you have configured your browser to disable cookies, please re-enable them, at least for this site, or for “same-origin” requests. This confused me because I'm using Token authentication and not Sessions. In my settings.py: REST_FRAMEWORK = { 'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': [ 'custom_auth.authentication.ExpiringTokenAuthentication' ] } MIDDLEWARE = [ 'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware', 'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware', 'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware', 'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware', 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware', 'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware', 'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware', 'corsheaders.middleware.CorsMiddleware', ] I believe the django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware was put in there by default when I created the application, and I assume this … -

Is there a way to submit multiple forms with a single button and unique hidden values?
Note: I have seen some posts that are quite similar to mine but I don't think those solutions help in my use case. My website (made using Django) has a page for collecting dues payments. There is one page per family, in which there will be multiple dues to be paid by each member. Currently, I have one submit button to each due as you can see in the code below. {% for due in dues %} <tr> <td>{{due.0}}</td> <td>{{due.1}}</td> <td>{{ due.3}}</td> <td>{{ due.4 }}</td> <td>{{ due.5 }}</td> <td><form action="/dues/?family-dues={{ familyprofile }}" method="POST" id= "dues-payment"> {% csrf_token %} <input type="text" placeholder="Enter Amount" name="amount"> <input type="hidden" value="{{due.2}}" name="due-id"> <input type="hidden" value="{{due.0}}" name="member-id"> <input type="hidden" value="{{duefamily.0}}" name="family-id"> <button id="submit-payment">Pay</button></form></td> </tr> {% endfor %} The issue with this is that, only one payment can be done at a time. Is there a way where I can instead submit all the forms in one go. So that the cashier can just enter the appropriate payments in each textbox and when its submitted all the textbox values(paid amount) along with the due id be returned in one go? Current Scenario Due ID 1 textbox(Value is 40) Pay Button Due ID 2 textbox(Value is 80) Pay … -
How can I access an attribute of a model which is a foreignkey to another model in the views.py file
For example I have two models .Brand model which is a foreign key to another model Item. The Brand model has an attribute best_seller which is a boolean field recording whether a certain brand of items is a best seller. In my views I want to filter only the items whose brand is a best seller.How can I do this This is how my models.py looks like class Brand(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=100) best_seller = models.BooleanField(default=False) def __str__ (self): return self.title class Item(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=100) category = models.ForeignKey(Category, on_delete=models.CASCADE) brand = models.ForeignKey(Brand, on_delete=models.CASCADE) new_price = models.DecimalField(max_digits=7, decimal_places=2) image = models.ImageField(upload_to='static/images') old_price = models.DecimalField(max_digits=7, decimal_places=2, null=True, blank=True) slug = models.SlugField() description = models.TextField() featured = models.BooleanField(default=False) def __str__ (self): return self.title Then this the views.py file def home(request): brand = Brand.objects.filter(best_seller=True) bests = Item.objects.filter(brand=True).order_by('-id')[:12] context = { 'items': items, 'bests': bests } return render(request, 'home.html', context) After doing this there's nothing being rendered on the browser -
Nested fields/objects creation with DRF

Merging a field in one model to another with ForeignKey, Django Subquery and OuterRef
I have two models, RetailLocation and Transaction, which share a one-to-many relationship respectively. My goal is to annotate RetailLocation with the date of the latest Transaction which corresponds to that RetailLocation. The model Transaction includes "r_loc_name" which is the exact same string as RetailLocation.name. I believe this field is redundant, and I expect there is a better solution using only the r_loc ForeignKey (and set) in RetailLocation, however I have not figured out how. Models class RetailLocation(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True) class Transaction(models.Model): date = models.DateTimeField(null=True) r_loc = models.ForeignKey(RetailLocation, null=True, on_delete=models.SET_NULL) r_loc_name = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True) # Likely redundant Attempted Code loc_latest = RetailLocation.objects.all().annotate( latest_txn_time=Subquery( Transaction.objects.filter(r_loc_name=OuterRef("name")) .order_by("date") .values("date") .last() ) ) Another Attempt loc_latest = RetailLocation.objects.all().annotate( latest_txn_time=Value( Subquery( RetailLocation.objects.get(name=OuterRef("name")) .transaction_set.order_by("date") .last() .date ), DateTimeField(), ) ) My goal is to to reference RetailLocation.latest_txn_time, which would be the annotated datetime of the latest Transaction referenced to that RetailLocation. Thank you very much -

Django SearchFilter Multiple models
Using Django 3.2 with Restframework. I'm trying for search filter and create a API with restframework which would output the searched term with its whole object. I had a little success on that with official doc. But from that I can only search in a single Model and not as globally. I found a blog on how to use multiple Models together?

Why Django unique constraints did not work?

how to put multiple Forms in the same views.py - Django

DRF changes name or ignores "create" route
I'm new to DRF's "viewsets", but I've inherited some problematic code, and am having trouble figuring out what's going on. I have stripped down the code below to isolate the behavior I don't understand. In my urls.py I have from my_app.api import CurrentUserViewSet, from rest_framework.routers import DefaultRouter router = DefaultRouter() router.register("me", CurrentUserViewSet, basename="api-me") print(router.urls) Note the diagnostic print statement at the end. The CurrentUserViewSet is defined as: from rest_framework import viewsets from django.views.generic import View class CurrentUserViewSet(viewsets.ViewSetMixin, View): def create(self, request): """Update current user.""" instance = request.user ... @action(detail=False, methods=["post"]) def some_other_route(self, request): ... When I start a runserver instance that uses the above, it hits my print statement in "urls.py" and displays this: [ <URLPattern '^me/$' [name='api-me-list']>, <URLPattern '^me\.(?P<format>[a-z0-9]+)/?$' [name='api-me-list']>, <URLPattern '^me/some_other_route/$' [name='api-me-some-other-route']>, <URLPattern '^me/some_other_route\.(?P<format>[a-z0-9]+)/?$' [name='api-me-some-other-route']>... ] So it looks like the name of my create route is being changed to list. I don't know how or why this is happening. Interestingly, if I define an addtional route that is actually named "list", the "create" method still does not appear in the URLs created by the router. It seems to be totally ignored. As I mentioned, I inherited this code. I think that even though the original author named … -
