how to create a file dynamically with OCR result from an image model
i created two apps in django one to upload a file and process it and one to preform OCR and create a pdf file from the processed image. so i have two models one for images and another for files, when i upload an image it goes through the processing pipeline then automatically the file field in the File model is populated with the result. When i m working with the admin panel or with DRF api root it is working fine, but when i use POSTMAN or react Native front end i get internal server error and the image is uploaded but no file is created. I m still learning django and backend concepts so i don't even know where to look for the issue: here are my models class Uploads(models.Model): id = models.UUIDField(primary_key=True, default=uuid.uuid4, editable=False) title=models.CharField(max_length=100,default='none') image=models.ImageField(upload_to='media',unique=True) created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) super(Uploads, self).save(*args, **kwargs) if self.id : File.objects.create( file=(ContentFile(Create_Pdf(self.image),name='file.txt') )) class File(models.Model): id = models.UUIDField(primary_key=True, default=uuid.uuid4, editable=True) label=models.CharField(max_length=100, default='none') title=models.CharField(max_length=200,default='test') file=models.FileField(upload_to='files') created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) def __str__(self): return str(self.id) import PIL.Image pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = r'C:\Program Files\Tesseract-OCR\tesseract.exe' def Create_Pdf(image): text=pytesseract.image_to_string(PIL.Image.open(image)) return(text) -

Django template: two different font sizes on same line
I'd like to be able to render two different font sizes on the same line using a Django template. Here's my code: <div> <h5>Details</h5> </div> <div> <h6>Creator By:</h6> {{ order.creator }} </div> <div> <h6>Category:</h6> {{ order.category }} </div> This is rendering as follows: Details Created By: Janice Category: Automotive ############################################# Notice that the variables are skipping to a new line. I would like to render these as follows (on the same line): Details Created By: Janice Category: Automotive Is this just a simple mistake I've made with the HTML? Or, is there some nuance I'm missing with the Django form? Thank you! -
How to get the related field of a related field in Django REST Framework serializers?
Imagine having three Django Models: class A: Susu = models.CharField() # props... class B: a = models.ForeignKey(A) Bar = models.CharField() # props... class C: b = models.ForeignKey(B) c_prop # props... I'd like to write a serializer for C objects, such that they are represented as { "c_prop": "Foo", "b" : { "Bar": "Agu" }, "a" : { "Susu", "Jaja" } } i.e. the foreign key of the B class is representated at the same level of nesting as the B object (instead of "within" B) I have these serializers: class ASerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = A fields = ("Susu", ) class BSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = B fields = ("a", ) class CSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): b = BSerializer class Meta: model = C fields = ('c_prop', 'b', 'a', ) # <-- How to get the 'a' here (not just the PK of 'a' but the nested object representation? -
Django authentication/user create functions
I'm trying to start a project in Django, where users can register on my site and subsequently login/logout when they visit it. I have found a template for a user creation view, that looks like this: from django.views.generic import CreateView from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm from django.contrib.auth import authenticate, login class CreateUserView(CreateView): template_name = 'register.html' form_class = UserCreationForm success_url = '/' def form_valid(self, form): valid = super(CreateUserView, self).form_valid(form) username, password = ( form.cleaned_data.get('username'), form.cleaned_data.get('password1') ) new_user = authenticate(username=username, password=password) login(self.request, new_user) return valid Now, I'm wondering why a call to authenticate with a non-existing username should create a new user. I'm trying to find any documentation for the imported functions authenticate and login, however, I can only find documentation for the User-model, AnonymousUser object, Permission-model, Group-model, some authentication backends and signals/validators, but I don't find any documentation for (standalone) functions authenticate and login. Can someone provide me the with a link to the relevant documentation or at least confirm that the way as they are used above is (still?) correct? -

Optimizing Django with prefetch and filters in large table
I had a database in php/html using MySQL and am transferring this to a Django project. I have all the functionalities working, but loading a table of the data I want is immensely slow because of the relations with other tables. After searching for days I know that I probably have to use a model.Manager to use prefetch_all. However, I am not stuck on how to call this into my template. I have the following models(simplified): class OrganisationManager(models.Manager): def get_queryset_director(self): person_query = Position.objects.select_related('person').filter(position_current=True, position_type="director" ) return super().get_queryset().prefetch_related(Prefetch('position_set', queryset=person_query, to_attr="position_list")) def get_queryset_president(self): person_query = Position.objects.select_related('person').filter(position_current=True, position_type="president" ) return super().get_queryset().prefetch_related(Prefetch('position_set', queryset=person_query, to_attr="position_list")) class Person(models.Model): full_name = models.CharField(max_length=255, blank=True, null=True) country = models.ForeignKey(Country, models.CASCADE, blank=True, null=True) birth_date = models.DateField(blank=True, null=True) class Organisation(models.Model): organisation_name = models.CharField(max_length=255, blank=True, null=True) positions = models.ManyToManyField(Person, through='Position') # positions are dynamic, even though there should only be only one director and president at each given time, a onetoone model wouldn't work in this scenario objects = OrganisationManager() # The following defs are currently used to show the names and start dates of the director and president in the detailview and listview def director(self): return self.position_set.filter(position_current=True, position_type="director").last() def president(self): return self.position_set.filter(position_current=True, position_type="P").last() class Position(models.Model): POSITION_TYPES = ( ('president','President'), ('director','Director'), ) … -
Displaying javascript style alert after form submit in Django
I am creating a simple application in Django. I have a form on a page and after the form is submitted, I want to redirect the user to a new page and display a JavaScript alert like this. How would I go about doing this? My code is down bellow.

Past questions have asked me to use Django messages, which is something I don't want to use. Thank you to everyone who helps! -

How to make custom filter based on user

Filtering parent/child using NestedTabularInline in Django
Stuck in getting conceptually my head around a Django/ORM problem for a few days. Searching online (stackoverflow) didn’t address my problem. Furthermore I’m quite new to Django and Python and trying to understand the concepts of abstract models, multitable inheritance and proxy models but I don’t think that’s the solution. Outline: I’ve a general description of a activity/method/task model which describes a general assembly instruction. See my Activity/Method/Task/TaskImage model. On a actual product I want to execute a plan, in which I concretize a series of activity steps, hence my PlanActivity and PlanMethod models. Moreover for each actual plan I want to assign a bill of materials to make the product (therefore the TaskBOM). For convenience I’m heavily using NestedTabularInline for both drag/drop and inline properties. My problem is a bit twofold: Any activity step can have only one single method (Q1) and the available method’s need to be filtered (Q2) on it’s parent (activity). The tasks need to be filtered on the same way based on it’s parent (method). I think/hope my model is sane (thus no need for abstract models, multitable inheritance and proxy models) and I believe I need to use get_queryset or formfield_for_foreignkey functions in some … -
