How to copy or read a file from the outside of the project file in Django?
I have created a basic ocr system. When a user uploads a PDF file to the system ocr read it and created an xlsm file with the same name. I am using remote control with Azure (Windows). I created a download button. When I click it, download the file with the same name, so it should work but appears an error because I want to read the file from the outside directory of the project. So, I should copy this file to my media dir, or I should read from there. This is my project: C:\Users\f-otc\PycharmProjects\otc This is the file that I want to download: C:\f\otc <a href= "{% static path %}" class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-sm" download>Download Report File</a> This is my button It gets the path correctly but gives an error when file downloaded. -

Django : Changing settings in an exported csv file
I have implemented a button that will export the readings that are taken for a complex (to .csv) In the file that has been downloaded, the data is in the first cell only, separated by a coma. This is fixed in the .csv file by doing the following: Goint to data > get & transform data > from text/csv . 'select the file you wish to change' > transform data > save and close. Is there a way that I can change these settings in my exporting code. Views.py import csv def Avonleacsv(request): data =AvonleaClass.objects.all() response = HttpResponse(content_type='text/csv') response['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment; filename="Avonlea_file.csv"' writer = csv.writer(response) writer.writerow(['Unit', 'Number of Units' ]) for avonleaclass in data: writer.writerow([ avonleaclass.unitNumber, avonleaclass.newReading, ]) return response -

Django - Passing multiple parameters into raw queries with %s format
In the project I am working on before we used a custom connector for MariaDB but now I have to use the default connector for MySQL in Django. The previous MariDb connector used ? For parameterization but MySQL for Django uses %s instead. I create the queries dynamically in the following way: def create_update_query(interpretation, record_id, table): query = "UPDATE `db-dummy`."+table+" " for index, key in enumerate(interpretation): if index == 0: query = query + "SET {0} = %s".format(key) else: query = query + ", {0} = %s".format(key) query += " WHERE record_id = " + record_id return query And this is a sample of a query created dynamically (there could be up to 30 parameters): UPDATE `db-dummy`.s_data SET s_id = %s, h_loss = %s WHERE record_id = 5877 And here comes the problem. With the MariaDB you could something like this: sd_query = create_update_query(interpretation, record_id, tableName) cursor.execute(sd_query, tuple(interpretation.values()) ) But I do not know how to do it with a %s parameterization. I couldn't find anything in the official documentation. EXTRA INFO: If for example we print(tuple(interpretation.values())), this is the outcome: ('SIC0575', '1') -
Is there any way I can pass args Value to pass in django celery periodic tasks?
I got certain following task to be executed from apps.users.email import ConfirmationEmail @shared_task def send_email(receipt, **kwargs): return ConfirmationEmail(context=kwargs).send(to=[receipt]) and send email is called in below function. I am having problem on passing args in periodic task as I could not find any docs regarding this def _email(self): token = RefreshToken.for_user(user=self.user_instance).access_token # get current site current_site = get_current_site(self._request).domain # we are calling verify by email view here whose name path is activate-by-email relative_link = reverse('activate-by-email') # make whole url absolute_url = 'http://' + current_site + relative_link + "?token=" + str(token) self.context = { 'user': self._user.username, 'token': absolute_url } receipent = self._user.email send_email.delay(receipent, **self.context) Above code works fine with redis but I want to send email every 2 minutes but I am confused on passing args while passing the periodic task job. Is the approach wrong or I am missing something? -

How to include non-Python dependencies in a Python Django deployment?
I am deploying a Django application using Heroku. One of my application's dependencies is the 'ta-lib' library, which is a Python wrapper for a library written in C.

Django rest + React front
Currently, I am working with a group to try to create a website with a functional Django backend and a React frontend. We are using a user view set class UserViewset(viewsets.GenericViewSet, mixins.CreateModelMixin, mixins.RetrieveModelMixin, mixins.ListModelMixin, mixins.UpdateModelMixin, mixins.DestroyModelMixin): permissions_classes = (permissions.AllowAny,) serializer_class = UserSerializer queryset = User.objects.all() This is where I am stuck, I haven't used viewsets or serializers before and I am at an impasse on where to go from here.

Make option in form disabled When already requested
I am building an web app that allows users to request items. The user will select the item, the location, the start date and end date of the borrowing in a form. I have the following model which I created the form from: class Request(models.Model): shootkit = models.ForeignKey(Shootkit, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True, blank=True) username = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True, blank=True) request_start_date = models.DateField('Start Date') request_end_date = models.DateField('End Date') location = models.ForeignKey(Location, on_delete=models.CASCADE) I have 5 Items in the database. And here's the model: class Shootkit(models.Model): shootkit = models.CharField('Shootkit', max_length=100, null=True, blank=True) And the def in views: def request_form(request): submitted = False if request.method == "POST": form = requestForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): stock = form.save(commit=False) stock.username = request.user stock.save() return HttpResponseRedirect('/request_form?submitted=True') else: form = requestForm(initial = {'username': request.user}) if 'submitted' in request.GET: submitted = True return render(request, 'request_form.html', {'form':form, 'submitted':submitted,}) The issue here is that I want to grey out (disable?) the items options which have been already requested. so I know that I can filter the date greater or equal than today in objects in the Request table so it means that the item still unavailable. But I am not sure how to block/disable the item. Can anyone help please? -
Which javascript library to choose if I want to use Django for backend?

How to save multiple objects in Django models at once
What I'm trying to do is saving multiple scraped data(actor names) in my Actor table inside Django models. So far I've written the for loop below to achieve this goal but it only saves the last object. class Actor(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=50) url = models.URLField() def __str__(self): return self.name def save(self, *args, **kwargs): i = 0 for num in range(5): title, year, actor_list = scraper(self.url) self.name = actor_list[i] super().save(*args, **kwargs) i += 1 I get the URL from users within a form, then save the form and send it to my models and the scraping begins. I scrape 5 actor names inside the scraper() function and append them to actor_list. But when I try to save the actor_list under the save function, it only saves the 5th actor which I think overwrites the previously saved objects. Is there something wrong with my for loop? or should I completely change my approach for this purpose? I'd also prefer to save the objects using Actor.objects.get_or_create() to skip the already existing objects, but I don't know how and where. I would appreciate it if someone could help me with this.
