Django - How access the value of an instance in views.py
I have this model class Post(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=100) title2 = models.CharField( max_length=100) content = models.TextField(default=timezone.now) content2 = models.TextField(default=timezone.now) post_image = models.ImageField(upload_to='post_pics') post_image2 = models.ImageField(upload_to='post2_pics') date_posted = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now) author = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE) Then I have this simple view function that allows me to access each of its field in my HTML: def home(request): postings = { 'listings' : Post.objects.all(), } return render(request, 'front/front.html', postings) {% for listings in listings%} <h1>{{listings.content}}</h1> {% endfor %} With this, I'm able to access the content field for every instance of that model and display it My question is how can I access the content field in my view function and change it. The content field holds a zipcode and I want to use an API to display the city of that zipcode(which I already know how to do) and pass it back to the h1 tag. Each instance holds a unique zipcode so I need it to apply for each instance. How would I approach this? -
How to use object.id to make another object, creator of the current object?

For example, /<local_server_addr>/<client.id>/Add-Installment (because of <int:pk> above) I can create a new client and also I can add installment. But … -
How to obtain geo co-ordinates of a remote user in group video chat?
I am building a group video chat application in Django with the help of Agora where I want to show the user their geo distance from every other user. To a given user, the UI would look something like this (along with the video of course) User A - (User A's remote video) - 5 miles away from you User B - (User B's remote video) - 100 miles away from you User C - (User C's remote video) - 10 miles away from you User D (local user - you) Now in the video chat, a user can log off & a new user can join the call any time. To compute the geo distance of a remote user with the local user, I need geo-coordinates of both the parties. I can obtain the geo-location of the local user by integrating with some location library. I am confused on how to obtain the geo-coordinates of the remote user? My django code flow looks something like renders links to views.py ----> video.html -------> agora.js Video.html renders the video chat room. I am using Agora to power the group video chat whose code is defined in agora.js. Any time a new … -

Django Model Form not saving to database
I have the following ModelForm which when I use as below it is not saving to the database. I have tried other posts and answers on here but cannot get this to save.

How do you properly protect a multitenancy model from the tenants in Django (using django-schemas)?
I'm kind of at a loss here. I'm setting up a multi-tenant project for practice with Django and I decided to use django-tenants because it has the most active Github repo. The problem I've run into has to do with exposing the tenant model to all the tenants. I don't want the tenants to see who the other tenants are. They cannot add, edit or remove any of them but they can see them. I don't want that. What I've tried doing was making two admins (admin and masteradmin) then only registering the tenant model with the master admin. However, if a tenant goes to /masteradmin/ the same problem persists. I figure that django.contrib.admin doesn't know about the tenants and this is why but I'm stuck. What do I do to solve this problem properly? I'm out of resources to read and options to try. Project settings.py apps: SHARED_APPS = ( 'django_tenants', # mandatory, should always be before any django app 'customers', # you must list the app where your tenant model resides in 'website', 'admin_interface', 'colorfield', 'django.contrib.admin', 'django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.messages', 'django.contrib.staticfiles', 'biller_customers', ) TENANT_APPS = ( 'django.contrib.contenttypes', # your tenant-specific apps 'biller_customers', ) Tenant app models.py file: from … -

I would like for each student to have their own dashboard which displays various statistics like how much time they spent on a course and what courses they are enrolled in. This is for a nonprofit organization aimed at elementary through early high school students. Currently, I know the very basics of frontend development (HTML, CSS, JS) and some python however I am unsure where to start to learn backend development to actually create user accounts and courses. Since I am learning python on the side I would prefer to use Django, where is a good place to start for someone with absolutely no prior computer science or web dev experience?
