CBV form_valid() and form_invalid() methods not called, form not saved to database
I tried following this tutorial: Link Whenever I try creating/updating/deleting a Record (my model, in this case) it redirects me to the page I've told it to redirect me to, and displays that a POST has been called in the command prompt, yet the Record is not created. I've tried overwriting both the form_valid() and form_invalid() functions, and added some print statements. Neither print statements print, so I don't believe either of these methods are called. Why are neither of these methods called, and why isn't my model being created and stored? Here's the model creation form, record_form.html: {% extends "catalog/base.html" %} {% block content %} <h1 class="text py-3 pt-4">Create/Update a Record!</h1> <style> .text { font-size: 40px; font-weight: bold; color: #060007; } </style> <div class="shadow p-3 mb-3 bg-light rounded"> <form class="form" method="POST" action="/catalog/"> {% csrf_token %} <p><label for="my_catalog">Catalog name:</label> {{ form.my_catalog }}</p> <p><label for="name">Name:</label> {{ form.name }}</p> <p><label for="description">Description:</label></p> <p>{{ form.description }}</p> <p><label for="date_start">Date start:</label> {{ form.date_start }}</p> <p><label for="date_end">Date end:</label> {{ form.date_end }}</p> <p><label for="manufacturer">Manufacturer:</label> {{ form.manufacturer }}</p> <p><label for="condition_rating">Condition rating (between 0 and 5):</label> {{ form.condition_rating }}</p> <p><label for="condition_description">Condition description:</label></p> <p>{{ form.condition_description }}</p> <div><input type="submit" value="Save"></div> </form> <style> .form { color: #060007; } </style> </div> {% endblock content … -
Docker - Django - PermissionError after switching to Host volumes on Ubuntu Server
The Docker image / container worked fine on Ubuntu, however I wanted to have access to the static folder. Therefore I added "Host volumes" to the docker-compose.yml (volumes was empty before): version: '3.3' services: api: build: context: . restart: always ports: - "8000:8000" volumes: - ./app_static:/app/static $ docker-compose up After building the image and running the python manage.py collectstatic command, I get the following error: PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'static/media' The folder structure inside the docker image looks like this: appuser@1e2bc02404a2:/app$ ls -la total 24 drwxr-xr-x 1 appuser appuser 4096 Mar 29 21:50 . drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 Mar 29 21:51 .. drwxr-xr-x 1 appuser appuser 4096 Mar 29 21:00 api -rw-r--r-- 1 appuser appuser 765 Mar 29 21:00 manage.py drwxr-xr-x 1 appuser appuser 4096 Mar 29 21:00 mausefallentest drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Mar 29 21:51 static The problem is, that after adding Host volumes to the docker-compose file, the user for the static folder changed to root. But the Docker image is runnung under the "appuser" user. Thus i get the permission denied error. But how can i solve this problem ? I only have this problem on my Ubuntu server. On Windows its working fine. -

Should i use proxy models in django?
im here trying to start a new project, in django and i came across this problem, while creating the models My users will be different types of users, so i was thinking, should i use proxy models for it? because here is how it´s going to be the realtionship between them. i will have a client, and a personal trainer, and the admin of course, but the problem here is that the client is going to have a ForeignKey with personal trainer, my main question is, can i create in a proxy model an extra field where i establish the relationship with personal trainer proxy model? If not, is there any other way that i can aproach this type of situation Thanks in advance -

django oauth toolkit `or` in required scopes in view
I'm using drf and oauth toolkit with IsAuthenticatedOrTokenHasScope permissions as default. I have a view that contains scopes required_scopes = ['mod', 'admin'] When users logs into the app he have special groups which define his permission scope. So when the moderator logs into the app he gets mod scope. When he calls my view he gets 403 because allow_scopes in AccessToken model returns False. That is because the resource_scopes is ['mod', 'admin'] and provided_scopes is 'mod'. When method allow_scopes checks resource_scopes.issubset(provided_scopes) she returns False which is not intentional in my case. Is there any other option without overwriting allow_scopes in AccessToken model to define that this view needs scope mod or scope admin. ? -
How to objects.get/objects.filter from a "through" class?
im a beginner at django - so im a bit lost with how to go about this.

Why is Python .title() sticky? Applying title case to future strings?
This is a strange one: I'm trying to format a string in python (obviously), and when I use string.title(), it seems like python keeps applying title case to the string, even after applying other formatting to the string. Here's my code: def format_trade_name(self): tr_name = self.trade_name.title() tr_cap = [ 'oxy', 'depo', 'edex', 'emla', 'pred', ] tr_join = '|'.join(tr_cap) tr_regex = r'\b(?!(' +tr_join + r'))(\w{1,4})\b' print(tr_regex) tr_matches = re.search(tr_regex, self.trade_name,re.IGNORECASE) print(tr_matches.groups()) for i in tr_matches.groups(): if i is not None: tr_name = re.sub(r'\b'+i+r'\b',i.upper(),tr_name) print(tr_name) return tr_name Here's the problem: I want the function to capitalize the first letter of each word, and then convert all 4 letter strings (not in tr_cap) to upper case. So if the original string is tylenol depo er, I want the formatted string to be Tylenol Depo ER When I change the 2nd line to tr_name = self.trade_name.capitalize(), my function changes tylenol depo er into Tylenol depo ER (depo is not capitalized). When I keep the 2nd line as as written, tr_name = self.trade_name.title(), my function changes tylenol depo er to Tylenol Depo Er (Er isn't upper case, even though the formatting was applied after using .title(). Can anyone explain to me why the string is … -
Are django signals the correct tool to do post-upload processing?
I'm building a website where I want the website admin to be able to upload a pdf file via the admin site and then for those files to be downloadable via clickable images somewhere on the site (the images would be generated based on the first page of the pdf). I was thinking, I'd use django signals to generate these images every time a pdf is uploaded like so: class Forms(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=200) upload = models.FileField(upload_to='main/data/forms/', validators=[FileExtensionValidator(['pdf'])]) @receiver(post_save, sender=Forms) def generate_image(sender, **kwargs): //do some image generation here Are signals the right tool for this job? I've been reading tutorials about django signals, and it's emphasized that they should only be used for communication between different parts of the code, or for decoupling your code. Is there a better tool to accomplish what I want? P.S. This is my first ever stackoverflow question. I'm super excited, but if I made some faux pas while posting, please tell me! -

AJAX part of the javascript function doesn't work on my Django Project

Django/DRF endpoint to serve SVG static files
I'm building an API with Django and Django Rest Framework. I'm stuck in building an endpoint to serve a collection of SVG files (some fun emojis :P). These SVG files aren't stored in the DB (hence I don't have a Django Model for them), instead they are in the project's static folder where dey have their own sub-folder: | project | + static | | + assets | | | + emojis | | | | | smile.svg | | | | | laugh.svg | | | | | etc... I have tried different approaches but I'm not sure. One was the following view: # Python from os import listdir from os.path import isfile, join # Django from django.http import HttpResponse def list_emojis(request): emojis_path = 'project/static/assets/emojis/' emojis = [f for f in listdir(emojis_path) if isfile(join(emojis_path, f))] ret = [] for emoji in emojis: ret.append(open(emojis_path+emoji, 'r')) return HttpResponse(ret, content_type='multipart/form-data') This is returning a binary file downloaded (when I go to the URL with my browser) which looks like this: <_io.TextIOWrapper name='project/static/assets/emojis/094-user.svg' mode='r' encoding='UTF-8'><_io.TextIOWrapper name='project/static/assets/emojis/059-sad-11.svg' mode='r' encoding='UTF-8'><_io.TextIOWrapper name='project/static/assets/emojis/006-shooting-star.svg' mode='r' encoding='UTF-8'><_io.TextIOWrapper name='project/static/assets/emojis/120-briefcase.svg' mode='r' encoding='UTF-8'><_io.TextIOWrapper name='project/static/assets/emojis/016-monkey.svg' mode='r' encoding='UTF-8'><_io.TextIOWrapper name='project/static/assets/emojis/185-tongue.svg' mode='r' encoding='UTF-8'> I have never returned files from an API before.

Can DRF Simple JWT be used to validate a token it didn't generate?
I'm using @azure/msal-react for AAD authentication on the client. It returns an accessToken and an idToken that I need to send to my Django/DRF API where they need to be validated, user it belongs to found or created if they don't exist, and then a JWT issued back to allow further client-API communication. I'm currently sending the accessToken in the header as Authorization: Bearer <accessToken>. Because I have the following in my settings.py, I am getting Unauthorized: /api/v2/auth/aad_token/validate/: 'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': ( 'rest_framework_simplejwt.authentication.JWTAuthentication', ), The response says: { "detail": "Given token not valid for any token type", "code": "token_not_valid", "messages": [ { "token_class": "AccessToken", "token_type": "access", "message": "Token is invalid or expired" } ] } It looks like it the DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES is intercepting it and can't validate it, I assume because it is one it didn't generate. Due to this, I was about to start writing DRF custom authentication that subclasses BaseAuthentication, permitting the HTTP_AUTHORIZATION to be received where I can do with it what I need. However, I read the Microsoft documentation a few more times, these parts in particular: There are also several third-party open-source libraries available for JWT validation - there is at least one option for almost every …
