When using django-simple-history and DRF, how can I create an extra action to access the history of an object?
I'm new to Python, Django and DRF but I've gone through all the tutorials needed to set up a basic REST server and for this example, we'll pretend that it only serves one thing: a list of customers. Additionally, I have installed django-simple-history and registered my Customer model with it. This is the code that I've written so far and everything seems to work just fine. api/urls.py from django.urls import path, include from rest_framework import routers import api.views as views router = routers.DefaultRouter(trailing_slash=False) router.register('customers', views.CustomerView) router.register('customerhistory', views.CustomerHistoryView) urlpatterns = [ path('', include(router.urls)), ] api/views.py from rest_framework import viewsets from retail.models.customers import Customer class CustomerView(viewsets.ModelViewSet): queryset = Customer.objects.all() serializer_class = CustomerSerializer filterset_fields = '__all__' search_fields = ['name'] class CustomerHistoryView(viewsets.ModelViewSet): queryset = Customer.history.all() serializer_class = CustomerHistorySerializer filterset_fields = '__all__' api/serializers.py from rest_framework import serializers from retail.models.customers import Customer class CustomerSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = Customer fields = '__all__' class CustomerHistorySerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = Customer.history.model fields = '__all__' As it is, when I go to api/customerhistory/1, it gives me a lovely list of all the history for customer 1. Question What I'd like to do is access the same list by going to api/customer/1/history. My Attempt So Far... To do this, I'm … -
passing django views into a separate highcharts js script file
I have a template that visualizes data from a django view using Highcharts js (as shown below) and it works IF the Content Security Policy is disabled. However, I don't want the CSP disabled and after some reading I come to the conclusion that the best way is to host the highcharts script into another (external) file which then would be allowed by the CSP 'self' directive (please correct me if I wrong). <script> document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () { const chart = Highcharts.chart('container', { chart: { backgroundColor: '#eaeaea', type: 'bar' }, title: { text: 'Rezultatet sipas lëndëve' }, xAxis: { categories: [{% for cat, value in cat_scores.items %} '{{ cat }}' {% if not forloop.last %}, {% endif %}{% endfor %}] }, yAxis: { title: { text: 'Suksesi' } }, series: [{ name: 'Saktë', data: [{% for cat, value in cat_scores.items %} {{ value.2 }} {% if not forloop.last %}, {% endif %}{% endfor %}] }, { name: 'Pasaktë', data: [{% for cat, value in cat_scores.items %} {{ value.1 }} {% if not forloop.last %}, {% endif %}{% endfor %}] }, { name: 'Perqindje', data: [{% for cat, value in cat_scores.items %} {{ value.0 }} {% if not forloop.last %}, {% … -

How to decide whether to have one or many apps in Django project
What are the design decisions one should make when choosing to have just one large app versus several smaller apps in a Django project? I read 2 Scoops of Djangowhich strongly asserts that latter- that it should always be several small apps. However, others assert the opposite, that building production-level projects at scale are a nightmare if broken up into several apps. My project currently has 2 apps: animals and store where animals stores animal related data and store stores online shop related data. I was thinking about breaking store up into a cart app, a vendor app, and product app but have been advised that I should have it all in one app and that store should also be in the animal app, as there is a few FK rel between animal and store, so that I will just have one app. This is my first project and Ive already rebuilt it once and want to make the right design decisions now so that it is optimally functional and wont be a nightmare when moving it to production. I appreciate any advice about how to make these decisions from those who have more experience building production level Django apps. … -
What's the most convenient full softare stack to incorporate video chats among about 5-10 clients at the same time?
I'm thinking of building a website where a small group of people can video chat while playing simple games together on their computers (not mobile). (If such website already exists, please let me know, because I failed to find one after lots of search). I have never programmed video chats into a website before, is there a specific software web stack that is very convenient to incorporate video chats with? Many years ago I used Django on the backend and Angular.js was very popular at that time. I just found out Angular.js is no longer going to be maintained. So if there are specific software I should or should not use, please let me know, since web development changes rapidly and I might be missing something obvious, and Google searches would yield a lot of outdated resources. I plan to host it for free on github pages. -
How to add relation in a model instantiation before save/create the instance in database?
I had a problem adding bulk with m2m, so I created a script a little different from the examples I found. Post here This seems to work, until the part of adding the instance arrives. This does not work in the examples: - Add using ModelName(related_m2m_field=related_instance) not works, django says to use something like: ModelName(id=1).related_m2m_field=related_instance. - So, try using this way, but not works, I get the error: django.db.utils.IntegrityError: FOREIGN KEY constraint failed because the instance hasn't been created yet, I THINK, so I can't add a relation to an instance that hasn't been created, the problem is that I can't just create it, since I'm using bulk_create, everything should be ready before executing the bulk. You can see the complete code in the linked post. But here is the code that raise the error: # other imports.... from olympic.models import Game, Athlete # ... some code athlete_objs = [] game_objs = [] athlete_instance = Athlete( id=pk, name=name, sex=sex, age=age, height=height, weight=weight, team=team, noc=noc, ) athlete_objs.append(athlete_instance) game_objs.append( Game( id=register_row_number, name=game_name, year=year, season=season, city=city, sport=sport, event=event, medal=medal, ).athlete.add(athlete_instance) # I can't do this before save/creation!!!? ) # bulk code out of the instance scope Athlete.objects.bulk_create(athlete_objs, ignore_conflicts=True) Game.objects.bulk_create(game_objs, ignore_conflicts=True) -

Django model object as parameter for celery task raises EncodeError - 'object of type someModelName is not JSON serializable'
Im working with a django project(im pretty new to django) and running into an issue passing a model object between my view and a celery task. I am taking input from a form which contains several ModelChoiceField fields and using the selected object in a celery task. When I queue the task(from the post method in the view) using someTask.delay(x, y, z) where x, y and z are various objects from the form ModelChoiceFields I get the error object of type <someModelName> is not JSON serializable. That said, if I create a simple test function and pass any of the same objects from the form into the function I get the expected behavior and the name of the object selected in the form is logged. def test(object): logger.debug(object.name) I have done some poking based on the above error and found django serializers which allows for a workaround by serializing the object using serializers.serialize('json', [template]), in the view before passing it to the celery task. I can then access the object in the celery task by using template = json.loads(template)[0].get('fields') to access its required bits as a dictionary -- while this works, it does seem a bit inelegant and I wanted … -

How to implement a conditional formset with multiple updates in one and the same sessionwizard step (Django 2.2)
I'm using a formwizard, SessionWizard, and I want to be able do to multiple choices in one step before proceeding to the next wizard step. In the below image there's a MultipleChoiceField 'choices' where the content should change, or update based on the selected features + feature 1-3 with Boolean buttons. The 'submit features' button is meant for updating the MultipleChoiceField 'choices' based on the choices of features and the Next button is meant for proceeding to the next wizard step. I've read some documentation and followed some tutorials on formsets but it doesn't work in the form wizard. In the first wizard step in get_form_kwargs(), step 0, in the view a dynamic list is filtered by the chosen features 1-3 and used for the MultipleChoiceField. Both the form Form1 and the step 0 in get_form_kwargs() should be updated, or reiterated as long as there are more filtered options in the list dynamic_ls in the MultipleChoiceField prior to proceeding to the next wizard step. How can I do this ? I found a django-multipleformwizard on Pypi that seems to be an extension for doing this type of task but I'm not sure how to use it or if it can … -
Display all of a single user's content on a profile page in django
I want to create a public-facing user profile page that displays these three things: 1-the user's Profile (model-singular-) data (image, name, email, etc..) 2-The Blog (model -list of posts-) posts the user has published. 3-The Art (model -list of art pieces-) pieces the user has published. All three of these models have fields that tie them to their User. So far I have been able to display all of these models on one page, but I cannot figure out how to sort them down to only display the content of the user who's profile page is being visited. I am trying to display all of this data on a ListView view, not sure if that is the correct move. I have been searching around for hours trying to find how to adjust the get_queryset and get_context_data but I can't figure out how to grab the <pk> from the url (i.e. artist/44). I also tried putting <username> in the url but I wasn't able to grab that either. The two views below are the views I have been working on. One uses (username) and the other uses (id) in the url: views.py class UserPostListView(ListView): model = Post template_name = 'blog/user_posts.html' context_object_name … -

Create a Django fixture file that leaves some fields unchanged when loaded into DB
Is it possible to create a fixture that is written to the DB using loaddata, and overwrites some fields of an existing record, but not all of them? For example, suppose I have a table in my DB called app_foo: id bar baz 1 "a" "b" 2 "c" "d" The corresponding YAML fixture file for this would look like: - model: app.foo pk: 1 fields: bar: "a" baz: "b" - model: app.foo pk: 2 fields: bar: "c" baz: "d" How would I modify this fixture such that: Records 1 and 2 have an empty baz field when loading the fixture into a fresh empty database. When the fixture is loaded into a database already containing records 1 and 2 that have values for baz, they aren't overwritten with NULL. I thought that I could do something like this: - model: app.foo pk: 1 fields: bar: "a" - model: app.foo pk: 2 fields: bar: "c" or this: - model: app.foo pk: 1 fields: bar: "a" baz: - model: app.foo pk: 2 fields: bar: "c" baz: But both attempts overwrote the baz field for DB records 1 and 2 with NULL. This isn't specified in the documentation for fixtures, but is an … -

Why does django libraries documentation dive straight into how to implement rather than starting with what it is about?
I was checking out the celery documentation: https://docs.celeryproject.org/en/stable/django/first-steps-with-django.html which of course I found by googling django celery. I read in an article that I can use the asynchronous tools that it provides which serves my purpose. My question is what is the best way to read the celery documentation since it immediately starts with how to use it. Wouldn't it be rather nice from the readers point of view if the documentation started with an overview of what it is about and the major functions it provides. I would like to hear your opinion about it. Thank you in advance! -
Django does not import local site packages on apache
I've pulled my django project onto an apache server and installed all dependecies with requirements.txt. All of the packages have downloaded to a local folder on the server and django appears to be pointing to it (as seen in the picture below) but none of them can actually be imported when running with apache (works fine with the django server). I can definitely see all packages in the /home/bitnami/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages folder so I'm not sure what could possibly be wrong. I've set up the deployment following djangos but I assume there's some sort of import I'm missing. Any ideas? server .conf file WSGIScriptAlias / /opt/bitnami/projects/my_website/core/wsgi.py WSGIPythonPath /opt/bitnami/projects/my_website <Directory /opt/bitnami/projects/my_website/core> <Files wsgi.py> Require all granted </Files> </Directory> tweepy failed import pic - text below Exception Value: No module named 'tweepy' Exception Location: /opt/bitnami/projects/my_website/twitterapp/controllers/twitter_controller_rename.py, line 2, in <module> Python Executable: /opt/bitnami/python/bin/python3 Python Version: 3.8.5 Python Path: ['/opt/bitnami/projects/my_website', '/opt/bitnami/projects/my_website', '/opt/bitnami/python/lib/python38.zip', '/opt/bitnami/python/lib/python3.8', '/opt/bitnami/python/lib/python3.8/lib-dynload', '/opt/bitnami/python/lib/python3.8/site-packages', '/opt/bitnami/python/lib/python3.8/site-packages/setuptools-46.4.0-py3.8.egg', '/opt/bitnami/python/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip-20.2.1-py3.8.egg', '/opt/bitnami/python/lib/python3.8/site-packages/virtualenv-20.0.30-py3.8.egg', '/opt/bitnami/python/lib/python3.8/site-packages/six-1.15.0-py3.8.egg', '/opt/bitnami/python/lib/python3.8/site-packages/filelock-3.0.12-py3.8.egg', '/opt/bitnami/python/lib/python3.8/site-packages/distlib-0.3.1-py3.8.egg', '/opt/bitnami/python/lib/python3.8/site-packages/appdirs-1.4.4-py3.8.egg', (THIS FOLDER) '/home/bitnami/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages']
