Django staticfiles of app does not copying in production after manage.py collectstatic
I'm using Django + Nginx + uwsgi Settings.py : INSTALLED_APPS = [ 'django.contrib.admin', 'django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.messages', 'django.contrib.staticfiles', 'main', ] if DEBUG: STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static/") else: STATIC_ROOT = "/var/www/mysite/static/" STATIC_URL = '/static/' if DEBUG: MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "media/") else: MEDIA_ROOT = "/var/www/mysite/media/" MEDIA_URL = '/media/' STATICFILES_FINDERS = [ 'django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.FileSystemFinder', 'django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.AppDirectoriesFinder', ] After update a code (in DEBUG = True all works good, static files are loading correct) I'm using python manage.py collectstatic on DEBUG = False in production server and it's collect admin static, but it's not collecting static for "main" app. In debug mode all working good. Checked serving by Nginx - it's working correct. Why "collectstatic" doesn't collect static from "main" app? -
How to remove put method in RetrieveUpdateAPIView from drf-spectacular API documentation?
I have the following view: class PersonalInfos(generics.RetrieveUpdateAPIView): serializer_class = ClientSerializer permission_classes = [IsAuthenticated] def get_queryset(self): """ :return: A QuerySet Object """ return Client.objects.get(user=self.request.user) def get(self, *args): """ :param args: Handled by rest_framework views.dispatch :return: JSON object containing User Personal Data """ queryset = self.get_queryset() serializer = ClientSerializer(queryset) return Response(data=serializer.data) def patch(self, request): """ :param request: request object is sent by the client :return: Json response with the data sent of the body """ client = self.get_queryset() serializer = ClientSerializer(client, data=request.data, partial=True) if serializer.is_valid(): serializer.save() return Response(data=serializer.data, status=200) return Response(data="Unexpected Parameters", status=400) Everything works fine in the view, but the problem is that I am using drf-spectacular and it is showing me a PUT method in the documentation that we won't be needing in the API. My questions is, how can I customize drf-spectacular to not include a PUT method in the documentation? -
How can I perform a parse and edit function on an article when it's saved?
For a Django blog, I'm trying to find a way to parse the content of an article and automatically make edits when certain conditionals are met, then save the article to the db once the function is complete. Alternatively, I could do this from the view, but I figure it's more efficient and possibly easier to code if it's handled this way. What do I need to edit so I can pass this function when an article is saved? How can I parse the contents of the article and make changes when a conditional is met? Would something like the following work (pseudocode): ''' for line in object.content: line = line.rstrip() conditional: line = 'new line' object.content.save() ''' Sorry, not sure why codeblock isn't working. -
Django PWA - Session variables not updating
I am trying to convert a web application into a PWA using a service worker. I am using django session variables within the application for 'cart' functionality. As I add items to the cart session variable, it isn't getting updated while a service worker is running. I assume this is because of the caching. Is there anyway I can prevent this? the service worker being used (not my own): const PRECACHE = 'precache-v1'; const RUNTIME = 'runtime'; // A list of local resources we always want to be cached. const PRECACHE_URLS = [ '/home', '/base', '/menu' ]; // The install handler takes care of precaching the resources we always need. self.addEventListener('install', event => { event.waitUntil( caches.open(PRECACHE) .then(cache => cache.addAll(PRECACHE_URLS)) .then(self.skipWaiting()) ); }); // The activate handler takes care of cleaning up old caches. self.addEventListener('activate', event => { const currentCaches = [PRECACHE, RUNTIME]; event.waitUntil( caches.keys().then(cacheNames => { return cacheNames.filter(cacheName => !currentCaches.includes(cacheName)); }).then(cachesToDelete => { return Promise.all(cachesToDelete.map(cacheToDelete => { return caches.delete(cacheToDelete); })); }).then(() => self.clients.claim()) ); }); // The fetch handler serves responses for same-origin resources from a cache. // If no response is found, it populates the runtime cache with the response // from the network before returning it to the … -

Django Rest Framework filter a calculated SerializerMethodField() in ViewSet using filterset_fields

javascript function doesnt work on other objects
I have a strange problem and I'm not sure what might be the problem. As you can see from the image, on click (...) dots another menu is showing up, however, this works only for the first card.

How to clear cloned django form data before inserting to template
I have two forms. One modelform (static) and second modelformset (dynamic). I am trying to let users add an arbitrary number of addresses but I am struggling with cloning process. This code works fine. Adds and deletes addresses, but the thing is, whenever a new addressform gets created it contains all the data from the last.

How can i login from Axios/Ajax in Django?
I'm building a Vue SPA where Django will be the backend of the Vue app and will communicate with the frontend only usinsg JSON. I'm trying to handle authentication now, and i'm trying to login from the Vue app using Axios (i'm using the standard session authentication), the Django backend uses django-allauth, so basically the Vue app should send a POST request to accounts/login/ which is a Django-Allauth URL in my backend. The problem with my code is that when i send the request with Axios nothing happens, and instead of logging in the response will be HTML instead of a valid response, Django-Allauth supports AJAX calls so that should not be a problem. Here is my code: authenticate() { axios.post('http://127.0.0.1:8000/accounts/login/', { username: 'root', password: 'test', }, { headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'X-CSRFTOKEN': this.csrf_token, }, }) .then(function (response) { console.log(response) }.bind(this)) }, The response is HTML, while this is what i see in the terminal: [23/Mar/2021 20:04:37] "POST /accounts/login/ HTTP/1.1" 200 1607. What am i doing wrong? -
Check whether int value of string is zero, positive or null in Python
I am saving the form data into a model instance. There are fields where the user can enter values from 0 and above or leave them empty. Now I should assign them to a field. Eg code def update(self, my_val): self.my_val = my_val or None This above code works fine for values of 1 and above. But not for 0. How can I allow for 0 and positive numbers and if my_val is an empty string then I should store it as None. How can I do that? -
Uploading a picture in django to a unique folder
I'm fairly new to Django and am having a bit of trouble trying to upload images So broadly, I have a user class: class User(AbstractBaseUser): user_id = models.UUIDField(default=uuid.uuid4, editable=False, unique=True) And a profile class: class Profile(models.Model): user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE) photo = models.ImageField(upload_to=<PATH>, blank=True, default=get_default_profile_image) For the above PATH in profile, I tried to upload it to: 'profiles/' + user.user_id + '/image.png' But if I try to do that, it says "AttributeError: 'OneToOneField' object has no attribute 'user_id'" Is there any way to set the upload_to path as profiles/user_id/image.png where the user_id will be the unique id of that user? -

How do I add a filepath to a React project? (DRF)
I'm building a hybrid Django/DRF - React website. I'd like the react section to have a filepath as its only a part of the website (so .com/app instead of just .com/). Currently react renders correctly without the filepath, however when I add a subdomain to urls.py, index.html renders but without the components. React is in a django app, and the API is in another django app. This is the code with the filepath of 'app' added: src/components/App.js <Route path="app/join" component={RoomJoinPage} /> <Route path="app/info" component={Info} /> <Route path="app/create" component={CreateRoomPage} /> (react app) frontend urls.py from django.urls import path from .views import index app_name = 'frontend' urlpatterns = [ path('', index, name=''), path('info', index), path('join', index), django project urls.py django project urls.py from django.contrib import admin from django.urls import path, include from django.views.generic import TemplateView urlpatterns = [ path('admin/', admin.site.urls), path('api/', include('api.urls')), path('spotify/', include('spotify.urls')), path('app/', TemplateView.as_view(template_name='frontend/index.html')), path('main/', include('main.urls')), ] -
Should i have one django view that has lots of children or just lots of views
I have an api in django with a User class, this class has all CRUD operations and then I have children classes that inherit from this and on get or post requests they call x function e.g BaseUser(APIView): CRUD CreateUser(BaseUser): def post(self, request): BaseUser.create_user(request) then i have another for delete or get info etc but should these be this pattern where its one top user class and lots of children that inherit and call the CRUD operations or should these classes be broken out into their own thing e.g. one with all create logic then one with all delete logic for user. -

Google map integration for website through django
I'm using django(python) to code the page. is it possible to add a Google map feature, that specifically searches for nearby supermarkets based on user location? I see how changing the api adresss to change the search results in the Google document but in all the examples you need to have location as a latitude and longitude. can the webpage just prompt the user for location permissions and the code uses that location? I'm not exactly sure if I made the question clear but I will be grateful if anyone could point me in the right direction. -
What is the ideal way to store comments to a blog?
I am making a demo website using django and in the website you have blogs. What im trying to add is a way to add comments for every blog and what im trying to figure out is how to arrange the database. I thought about 3 options either you store with every blog a list of the comments or you store a list of all comments and the blog they belong to or you create a table for every blog with the comments. Which of these is the best in terms of how dificult it is to implement and how memory consuming it is? -

Django: How to efficiently add objects to ManyToManyFields of multiple objects?
We have a student and class many to many relation, where a student can take multiple classes, and a class can be taken by multiple students. class Class(models.Model): name = models.CharField(null=False, max_length=128) class Student(models.Model): first_name = models.CharField(null=False, max_length=64) classes = ManyToManyField(Class) What is the fastest way to add some object or a whole QueryList (in our case: all classes with Biology in their name), to the ManyToManyField of each object in another QueryList (in our case: all students whose first name is Linus)? The current way I am doing it is: biology_classes = Class.objects.filter(name__contains='Biology') linuses = Student.object.filter(first_name='Linus') for linus in linuses: linus.classes.add(*biology_classes) Which I guess hits the db for each student. I wonder if there is maybe some way to do it all "at once". Maybe something that looks something like this: linuses.classes.add(*biology_classes) # (this does not work) -
