Select which fields to export in django-import-export
I'm adding the django-import-export to the admin in my app. One thing I wanted to do was to offer the possibility of selecting in the admin page of selecting which fields to export. I searched for this topic but I only came across two questions with no answers. Is it possible to add the possibility to dynamically choose which fields to export from the admin page? Thanks. -

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'learning_logs.settings' in Django
For some reason i am not able to migrate file from one to another. I am working on a Django project from the book "Python crash course". CMD prompt message- (ll_env) C:\Users\visha\learning_log>python manage.py makemigrations learning_logs ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'learning_logs.settings' this is in the command prompt. I checked the settings file and i did include the 'learning_logs' with a comma in installed apps tuple.

Commaseparated form field in django
Suppose I have a following fields class SomeField(forms.Charfield): def to_python(self, value): value = super().to_python(value) # some cleaning logic return value def validate(self, value): super().validate(value) #some logic class AnotherField(forms.Charfield): def to_python(self, value): value = super().to_python(value) # some cleaning logic return value def validate(self, value): super().validate(value) #some logic class CommaSeparatedSomeField(Field): base_class=SomeField class CommaSeparatedAnotherField(Field): base_class=AnotherField What is the best way to implement above CommaSeparated***Field, where comma-separated means just a text field, with comma-separated values? I tried to represent it with a CharField, splitted by commas, but now I need to validate and clean each value in a list using the base_class logic. Here I encountered a problem, since all logic is not class methods. -

Storing files Django
I am building an website using django in which I have to store a lot of files. I have a view, which takes file from the user and saves it. def store(request): if request.method == "POST": sender = request.POST['sender'] file = request.POST['file'] I have a model in which i save these data: class t_data(models.Model): sender = models.TextField() file = models.FileField(upload_to='files') and I have this on my settings file: MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR,"media") MEDIA_URL = '/media/' Many files can have same name. Should I rename before saving them? How should I save them. There will be many users, So how can I distinguish files for each user? my question is : **What is the best way to store files in a django application?**Please Thank you -
Anonymous users in django many to many fields
I am trying to make a simple blog in django. I have a django ManyToManyField in my models to keep the record of likes on a blog post. It is working just fine but it only allows authenticated users to like a post but not anonymous users. I also want anonymous users to be able to like a post. Is there a way to do it? here is my models.py class Posts(models.Model): post = models.TextField(max_length=1500) id = models.UUIDField(primary_key=True, default=uuid.uuid4, editable=False) likes = models.ManyToManyField(User, related_name="post_likes") here is my vies.py def likes(request): if request.method == "POST": post = get_object_or_404(Posts, id=request.POST.get("like_button")) post.likes.add(request.user) here like_button is a name of a input in form that has value=id of a post. -
Django admin and wagtail static files not found

Django logging PermissionError with TimedRotatingFileHandler
I am trying to make django create and rotate new logs every 10 minutes using TimedRotatingFileHandler. My settings is as follows: LOGGING = { 'version': 1, 'disable_existing_loggers': False, 'handlers': { 'file': { 'level': 'DEBUG', 'class':'logging.handlers.TimedRotatingFileHandler', 'filename': 'logs/site.log', 'backupCount': 10, 'when':'m', 'interval':10, }, }, 'loggers': { 'django': { 'handlers': ['file'], 'level': 'DEBUG', 'propagate': True, }, }, } The first log file is created successfully. But when it is time to rotate the log file, I get the following error: PermissionError: [WinError 32] The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process: 'F:\\logs\\site.log' -> 'F:\\logs\\site.log.2021-05-22_19-18' How do I configure the logging so that the current log is copied to a timed log and new data written to the main log file? -

How to get Django to make some files public and media files private on AWS S3 (no 403 errors)?
I'm using boto3 and django-storages to serve files from AWS S3. I'd like my static files to be public but other files to be private. I've got it kinda sorta working but not quite. My static files are being served as if they're private, with a pre-signed key. In my template file when I use: <img src="{% static 'images/3d-house-nav-gray.png' %}"> instead of what I want <img src="https://mybucket.s3.amazonaws.com/static/images/3d-house-nav-gray.png"> I'm getting <img id="home-img" src="https://mybucket.s3.amazonaws.com/static/images/3d-house-nav-gray.png?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIA1234564LQ7X4EGHK&amp;Signature=123456gIBTFlTQKCexLo3UJmoPs%3D&amp;Expires=1621693552"> This actually works when the templates are rendered from the server as part of an HTTPResponse, but not when an image like this is simply included as part of, say, a .css file. In that case I'll get: Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 (Forbidden) (I find I can copy and paste the problematic image link and replace the &amp; with an & then I have access, a further mystery.)

Random NoneType Exception when running Django + Guardian with PGPOOL-II
I have kinda complex topic today I would like to share with you. We are running a "massive" Django Backend with high focus on High Availability. For legal reasons we had to change our infrastructure provider and started hosting main database internally (on our kubernetes cluster) instead of using one of the popular Database as a Service offerings. Long story short, with bringing pgpool-II into the game we suffer from random NoneType errors that nobody can explain. Actually the plan was to write a guide how to setup a scalable, ha & production-rdy deployment on k8s.However,for now it seems that there are issues to solve/understand, beforehand. Consider the following setup: We are deploying Django-Applications with Guardian as Docker-Containers to k8s Django 3.2.3 Gunicorn 20.1.0 with uvicorn Workers (0.13.4) ASGI 3 Protocol (asgref 3.3.4) Django-Guardian 2.3.0 Our PostgreSQL Cluster is based on the latest bitnami/postgresql-ha image Pgpool-II (2.2) and PostgreSQL (11.12) Follow best practices we use django's signal logic to execute permission assignment as part of the post_save for various models. What we see now that maybe 1 out 50 requests fails with an NoneType exception. If you check the error trace I linked then u will see the "real" problem … -
