Django: TypeError, when i try to create new user gives auth group error
I'm still learning Django. When I try to create a new user I get this error: I use Django rest framework and Djoser. I have a simple serializer that I only define the fields, and I put it in Djoser settings. I put my model "accounts" as AUTH_USER_MODEL and is a model changed from AbstractUser. If you need me to put more things here, say it. -
Mocking a class method in Python
Say I have the following: # maincode.py from othermodule import do_something class Myclass(): @staticmethod def return_array(): array_result = do_something() return array_result @classmethod def main(): array_result = cls.return_array() # Test.py # import necessary libraries for mocking class Test: @mock.patch('maincode.Myclass.return_array', autospec=True) def test(self, mock_return_array): mock_return_array.return_value = ["value1"] Myclass.main() However, I am getting TypeError: 'NonCallableMagicMock' object is not callable My mock.patch argument points to the correct place, however when I do print(cls.return_array) in main() I'm getting: <NonCallableMagicMock name='get_exposed_commands' spec='classmethod' id='________'> Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks -

Module "whitenoise.storage" does not define a "CompressedMainfestStaticFilesStorage" attribute/class
I'm using whitenoise to serve static files in my Django project. Here is the settings.py STATIC_URL = 'data/static/' SITE_ROOT = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)) STATICFILES_DIRS = [ os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'data/static/'), ] STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'staticfiles') I have my static files in data/static folder. When I try to run python manage.py collectstatic after commenting this line: STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'whitenoise.storage.CompressedMainfestStaticFilesStorage' It runs fine. But when I try to run collectstatic after uncommenting this, it gives the above error. Anyone has any idea as to why is this an error?

Django forms with classbased view
I am using class-based views for my forms but I'm not using Crispy forms instead I'm using these to submit my form- views.py: class PostCreateView(LoginRequiredMixin, CreateView): model = post fields = ['content'] def form_valid(self, form): form.instance.author = self.request.user return super().form_valid(form) and post-form.html: {% extends "blog/base.html" %} {% block content %} <main> <div class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-8 my-5"> <div class="content-section" style="padding:10px 20px"> <form method="POST" enctype='multipart/form-data'> <fieldset class="form-group"> {% csrf_token %} <fieldset> <label for="content">Name:</label> <input type="text" id="content" name="content"> </fieldset> <button type="submit">Sign Up</button> </form> </div> </div> </div> </main> Now my question is is it safe to use in this way. Can it handle multiple requests for a production environment? -

nested categories in Django and usage in template
I followed some instructions given by stackoverflow's answer for nested categories( by making the category model reference itself in the field called "parent"), but while implementing it, I came across the template tag problems where I can't really iterate the object since the error message says I can't. I tried to avoid this problem by trying using {% for i in c.c_set.all %}(where c stands for the for iterator in my template for loop) but just in vain.

In Django Todo App how can each user have a distinct set of the task?
I am making a todo app using Django.

Django DetailView and FormView on same URL, how to handle form validation errors?
I'm creating a page where a question (DetailView) is asked and the user can answer (FormView) using the same URL. I've basically followed the advice from the docs here - https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/topics/class-based-views/mixins/#an-alternative-better-solution class QuestionView(View): def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs): view = QuestionDetailView.as_view(template_name='question_detail.html') return view(request, *args, **kwargs) def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs): view = AnswerFormView.as_view() return view(request, *args, **kwargs) My DetailView is something like this where you can see I am adding the form to the context. In addition I do some extra validation in my AnswerForm.clean() method. class QuestionDetailView(DetailView): model = QuestionModel def get_context_data(self, **kwargs): context = super().get_context_data(**kwargs) context['form'] = AnswerForm return context It can be displayed properly and when the user submits the Answer (via a POST) it can work when my form validation passes. The problem is how to handle this when the form validation fails because the get_context_data() belongs to the GET, not the POST. I tried just adding the same get_context_data() to the POST related code but then the form errors do not show up on the form, so the user doesn't know what is wrong. Any advice welcome, thanks. -
