Django Signals: Can't Use For Loop?
When i remove the for loop in the signals then it works (creates an object properly) but when i use the for loop it should create an object for each post in the Collection object but this doesn't work. It doesn't even create an object of the Collection_List_Item model. Is there a reason why this for loop doesn't work? Is there a way to work around this? models class Collection(models.Model): posts = models.ManyToManyField(Post, related_name='collection_posts', blank=True) author = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True) collection_name = models.CharField(max_length=100) collection_description = models.CharField(max_length=1000, blank=True) collection_likes = models.ManyToManyField(User, related_name='liked_collections', blank=True) collection_image = models.ImageField(upload_to="images/") private = models.BooleanField(default=False) follows = models.ManyToManyField(User, related_name='collection_follows', blank=True) def __str__(self): return self.collection_name class Collection_List_Item(models.Model): post = models.ForeignKey(Post, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True) user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True) collection = models.ForeignKey(Collection, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True) saved = models.BooleanField(default=False) created_date = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) modified_date = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) def __str__(self): return self.collection.collection_name signals: @receiver(post_save, sender=Collection) def create_collection_list_item(sender, instance, created, **kwargs): if created: for i in instance.posts.all(): collection_list_item = Collection_List_Item.objects.create(collection=instance, user=instance.author, post=i) collection_list_item.save() -
Performance issues with django-storages + CloudFront
I'm using S3 Buckets for static and media files of my Django app. I have AWS CloudFront "in front" of the Buckets and I have setup django-storages in order to use this CDN to serve me my files. However, my requests are taking too long. It is worth mentioning that I am using HyperlinkedModelSerializer and VersatileImageField. I would expect that my files were retrieved by the CDN but it looks like my app is using boto3 to actually download the files from S3 (and I think this is happening during serialization). Here's some information from cProfile: ncalls tottime percall cumtime percall filename:lineno(function) 174 0.004 0.000 17.172 0.099 /MyProjectPath/env/lib/python3.8/site-packages/storages/backends/s3boto3.py:515(exists) 61 0.003 0.000 16.586 0.272 /MyProjectPath/env/lib/python3.8/site-packages/boto3/s3/inject.py:723(object_download_fileobj) 61 0.001 0.000 16.582 0.272 /MyProjectPath/env/lib/python3.8/site-packages/boto3/s3/inject.py:624(download_fileobj) 62 0.003 0.000 57.723 0.931 /MyProjectPath/env/lib/python3.8/site-packages/rest_framework/serializers.py:507(to_representation) 62 0.000 0.000 57.687 0.930 /MyProjectPath/env/lib/python3.8/site-packages/versatileimagefield/serializers.py:53(to_representation) 62 0.000 0.000 57.687 0.930 /MyProjectPath/env/lib/python3.8/site-packages/versatileimagefield/serializers.py:42(to_native) 62 0.003 0.000 57.686 0.930 /MyProjectPath/env/lib/python3.8/site-packages/versatileimagefield/utils.py:220(build_versatileimagefield_url_set) I don't think the app should be contacting the S3 Buckets directly. Has anyone experienced this? Could this be a because of a misconfiguration or is there any known issue related to DRF/django-storages/VersatileImage that would affect performance this badly? -

How to use two different databases in Django? (SQLite and MongoDB)
For my project, I'm trying to set up two different databases in Django. These databases are SQLite and MongoDB. What I'm trying to do is I'm trying to hold user data in SQLite and for big data, I want to use MongoDB. After so many searches on the internet, I couldn't understand how to do it. I just did this little code in settings.py: DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3', 'NAME': str(BASE_DIR / 'db.sqlite3'), }, 'bigdata_db' : { 'ENGINE' : 'mypackage.backends.mongodb', 'NAME' : 'bigdata_db', 'HOST' : '', } Please someone could help me. I'm really trying so hard to understand but it's so complicated for me. Also, in Django SQLite came already set up but here the main issue is how to set up MongoDB and connected two of them. -

Can I control how often the pre-ping connection check is done in SqlAlchemy connection pooling?
Environment / usage case info I have a SqlAlchemy django-postgrespool2 connection pool used to connect to a PostgreSQL database. Problem I'm considering using the pre-ping feature in my SqlAlchemy connection pool. However, I read that the pre-ping check is done for every pool connection checkout. I have done some tests, to me this checkout seems to occur for every SQL command I send to the database. I'm concerned all those pre-ping checks will cause a big overhead/delay if the check is made for every SQL command sent to the database. Question Is there a way to configure how often or after what time the pre-ping check should be made? Or do I have to implement my own solution to customize how often the connection is checked? How? Thanks! -
How should I develop the front-end? (help!) [closed]
So basically I have this idea for a web application where users can upload 'posts' which than will be upload to the 'feed'. So pretty much like all forums, social media applications, etc. Just like for example Reddit, I want the user to have specific options in de 'make-a-post-template' that he/she can fill in. It's a pretty complicated concept if I go in the dept of it, but my real question here is: How should I develop the front-end? Here are some key-points that I take in for the decision: I have never used a front-end framework before (basic knowledge of Javascript). But I'm willing to learn if there is much benefit to gain from it. It's going to be a forum website like Reddit, but for a specific audience. I want to use Django Please help me out here, I'm worried that if I don't use a front-end framework, that the speed of the website will dramatically decrease, and because I'm using diffrent content blocks, to create a 'dashboard' kind of style, that something like React will be very suitable for this. Take a look at the images to get some idea of how it's going to work and … -

Asynchronous computation and save in django 3 models
I have a problem making part of my models asynchronous in Django 3. This is my models.py: class ModelImages(models.Model): case = models.ForeignKey(Case, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name="slice_img") img = models.ImageField(editable=False) #other def get_slices(instance): # operations return images_array_list def process_3d_image(sender, instance, created, **kwargs): if created: imgs = get_slices(instance) for img in imgs: # other operations case_img = ModelImages(case=instance, img=name) with transaction.atomic(): case_img.save() post_save.connect(process_3d_image, sender=Case) The code is longer but I reported only the crucial parts. It works correctly but I want to make 'process_3d_image' function asynchronous. I tried Celery, Trio, and others without any result. How could I do it? -

How to display a list of posts in a list of categories in Django

Overriding get() method in Django UpdateView gives 'str' has no attribute get error
I have a Stats model which is related to Django User model with a OneToOne Field. I have an UpdateView: class StatsUpdateView(UpdateView): model = Stats fields = ('stat1', 'stat2', 'stat3') It works fine, but any User is allowed to modify the Stats related to any User, I want a User to onlyupdate the Stats related to him. So I override the get() method in StatsUpdateView like this: def get(self, *args, **kwargs): if self.request.user != Stats.objects.get(pk=kwargs['pk']).user: #checks if the user logged in is the same user related to the Stats with the onetoone field. Works fine. return redirect('homepage:home') else: # if the user match, he can access the update view for his own stats print('user match') return reverse('user:updatestats', kwargs={'pk': kwargs['pk']}) The code runs fine until the else statement, 'user match' gets printed into the console but I get this error while running the server: 'str' object has no attribute 'get' Here's the path: path('updatestats/<int:pk>/', StatisticheUpdateView.as_view(), name='updatestats') -
Logging Output for Session on Webclient
I'm using Django to deploy some of my calculations-modules and allow registered and unregistered users to make use of them. Now I happen so see on the serverlogs sometimes invalid files are uploaded and during the process I'm able to fix it to some degree. These calculation-modules are separated from the Django-Project, but still on the same server. My first thought would be to pass on logging-variables through them and return them in the end of the calculation in the server response. This seems to be a dirty and rather invasive solution as everything is basically protocolled with with the basic logging. Any of my methods would with that get an additional logging-variable. Apparently Output log file through Ajax in Django seems to somewhat fit to what I am looking for but this appears only to show the full logs and not by session (given the case one user has two sessions). The modules in the backend don't have any session-ID, but it wouldn't be too difficult to add it just in the constructors. The Ajax-Module on the Client doesn't seem to be the problem (plenty of sources, like: Django - How to show messages under ajax function), but how … -
Django static files not updating inside docker container
My Django project uses Docker, gunicorn, and whitenoise. I recently altered settings to prepare for deployment, most notably adding configurations for AWS-hosted media files. Now when I run the project locally and collectstatic the static files do not update in the browser. I do, however, see the changes where static files are collected. Things I've tried/double checked: Ensuring I have a shared volume between the container and where static files are kept/updated Adding a step to collectstatic in my Dockerfile Confirming my static files settings Is something about django-storages causing the issue? I thought that previously I was able to make SCSS changes and have them show up by refreshing the browser. But that's not happening. Even running collectstatic inside the container has no effect. # relevant settings.py INSTALLED_APPS = [ ...

Now, as I use Django Simple jwt, here's the code for the expiry of the refresh and access tokens: settings.py ACCESS_TOKEN_LIFETIME = datetime.timedelta(hours=2) REFRESH_TOKEN_LIFETIME = datetime.timedelta(days=3) SIMPLE_JWT = { 'ACCESS_TOKEN_LIFETIME': ACCESS_TOKEN_LIFETIME, 'REFRESH_TOKEN_LIFETIME': REFRESH_TOKEN_LIFETIME, ... } While this works really well on web, I do not want the phone app users to have to get logged out automatically every 3 days. Is there a way to alter the refresh token lifetime based on the device that is asking for the tokens? If yes, how? -

Django how to get model values inside another model?
I want the value of username from forms that I get as a string so that when I upload an image it is stored in a subdirectory with that username. i.e. if 'bob' registers the image should be saved in 'static/auth_image/bob/image_name.extension'. Also if I could it during the registration form filling that would be great. models.py class User_data(models.Model): username = models.CharField(max_length=256, null=True, blank=True) email = models.EmailField(max_length=254, null=True, blank=True) four_digit_pass = models.CharField(max_length=256, null=True, blank=True) private_key = models.CharField(max_length=256, null=True, blank=True) profile_pic = models.ImageField(upload_to='static/profilepic', null=True) def getUsername(self): return self.username def __str__(self): return str(self.username) class AuthImages(models.Model): owner = models.ForeignKey('User_data', null=True, on_delete=models.CASCADE) uname=owner. def save_auth_image(self): uname = self.username self.auth_image_file = models.ImageField( upload_to='static/auth_image/%s' % uname, null=True) forms.py class RegistrationForm(forms.ModelForm): four_digit_pass = forms.CharField(widget=forms.PasswordInput()) class Meta: model = User_data fields = ['username', 'email', 'four_digit_pass', 'profile_pic', 'private_key'] register.html {% extends "storage_app/base.html" %} {% block body_block %} <div class="jumbotron"> <h1>Register Page</h1> </div> <div> <form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> {% csrf_token %} {{ form.as_p }} <p>Private Key should not be changed or shared with anyone</p> <button type="submit">Upload</button> </form> </div> {% endblock body_block %} here in HTML, i want to take input for the second i.e. auth_image directly from webcam if possible This is my first question also I am new to Django so … -
