Mocking a function that behaves as if exception never occurred
I am have django view that calls the function on post request, and that function internally calls an other external API, which required to keys to connect. In case of failure that exception occur. What I want is to behave this method behave as if everything is fine, and no exception occurred. But I am not able to do so. What I have tried so far: This is my view @action(detail=False, methods=["POST"]) def unsubscribe(self, request, *args, **kwargs): subscription_id = request.data.get('email') if subscription.email: remove_email_from_list(subscription.email) return Response("Success") this is my remove_email_from_list remove_email_from_list(email): result = exteral_api(email) if result != "1": raise SendyError(result) My test: @mock.patch('core.utils.sendy.remove_email_from_list') @mock.patch('core.utils.simple_texting.remove_phone_from_list') @mock.patch('requests.post',"API.external_api") def test_unsubscribe(self, mock_remove_email, mock_remove_phone, mock_post, mock_external_api): mock_external_api.side_effect = None mock_remove_email.return_value = mock.MagicMock() mock_remove_phone.return_value = mock.MagicMock() mock_post.return_value = mock.MagicMock() self.login_admin() url = reverse('v2-subscription-list') url = f"{url}unsubscribe/" response = self.client.post(url, data={'email': "randomperson@internet.com"}) self.assertOK(response) self.assertEqual(Subscription.objects.all().count(), 0) When I do this it actually access the internet and try the API, but when that API fails I get this error sendy.exceptions.SendyError: <MagicMock name='unsubscribe()' id='140427579614256'> . How can I pass as if exception never occurred? -

Django - Include UpdateView in modal of Templateview
I have built an app that allow user to create a report about clients. Inside that app, to dsplay all the report, I have a page called report_validated.html, which is rendered by a TemplateView (by the way, should I use a ListView instead?) I allow the users to edit their report with an UpdateView that is rendered in report_update.html. So far, everything works good like this. However now, I'd like to allow the user to click on an Edit button that load a modal which will render the update form filled by the already exisiting data from the database. I have been trying to do this and I have been checking multiple posts on this website to find a solution but I have been unable to achieve it. models.py class Report(models.Model): input_title = models.CharField(max_length=200) content = models.TextField() refs = models.CharField(max_length=20) comment = models.TextField() is_noticed = models.BooleanField(default='False') tags = TaggableManager() date_of_writing = models.DateField(default=datetime.date.today) created_by = models.ForeignKey(User, related_name="report", blank=True, null=True, on_delete=models.CASCADE) views.py class ReportValidated(TemplateView): template_name = "taskflow/report_validated.html" def get_context_data(self, **kwargs): context = super().get_context_data(**kwargs) today = datetime.date.today() context['preceding_validated_report'] = Report.objects.filter(is_noticed=True).exclude(date_of_writing=today).order_by('-id') context['validated_report_of_today'] = Report.objects.filter(date_of_writing=today).order_by('-id') return context class ReportCreate(LoginRequiredMixin, CreateView): model = Report template_name = 'taskflow/report_create.html' form_class = ReportForm success_url = None def form_valid(self, form): … -
Is it possible to make email confirmation key shorter with dj-rest-auth?
I am making a rest api for mobile application. I am using dj-rest-auth package for the overall authentication process. Overall auth functionality works fine but One thing I want to modify is to make the email confirmation key shorter. User will get email like this. Please use this key to confirm your email.

Saving data from Views to Database
Hi I'm building a Webshop with a cart and checkout function. Now I'm trying to save the cart data in a Django Model so I can retrieve it. Now my question is how could I do that? and how can I get the data from an model?

Django Oauth Toolkit: User data over introspection
Current Scenario: I'm using Introspect to validate access token on the authentication server. This call returns only 'username' of the user from the authentication server and saves it in the resource server. The Id of the same user on the authentication server and the resource server are no necessarily the same. Desired Scenario: I want to receive more data about the user (email, phone number, address, etc..) and save it in the resource server. What I have done so far: I modified the django-oauth-toolkit/oauth2_provider/views/introspect.py/ get_token_response to return the data I need. What is remaining: How do I save those data in the resource server? or is it better to make an api call to the authentication server whenever I require the user data? -

how to retrieve an object with generic relation (ContentType) in Django

creating pandas dataframe from large list of records: how to make more efficient?
I am creating an epidemiological model which takes inputs and produces outputs. A standard output is a python dictionary with the following information { 'Location': 'Australia', 'Age group': '1 to 4', 'Sex': 'm', 'Cancer': 'cervical', 'Stage': 'stage IV', 'Coverage': 'Covered', 'Year of cohort': 2022, 'Year': 2025, 'Mortality': 0.0 } However, the current model produces 330,000 dictionaries which look like this. I'd like to create a dashboard using this information, which maintains the data in each entry. My first thought was to create the dataframe iteratively as follows: pd.DataFrame([x for x in huge_list_of_dictionaries], index=[0]) This produces the intended result, but takes several minutes to aggregate the data (using my personal computer, intel i7, nothing fancy). The hope is that this data can be used fairly quickly in a webapp using django, so reducing the speed is essential. I have had two thoughts about quicker solutions, Encode the strings as integers (e.g. male sex = 0), then remap the data once in the dataframe, or even when plots are generated. Have an intermediary step where the relevant data is selected (e.g. only prostate cancer) and only return this data Is there a more obvious solution that I am missing? -

Django Multiple Types of Users, one base usertype?
I am attempting to create a food delivery app clone. Which has two types of users Restaurant User and Customers. I want the restaurant user to be able to also be customers, using the same login info. This is how my models are setup right now: class Restaurant(models.Model): user_name = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='restaurant') full_name = models.CharField(max_length=500) phone = models.CharField(max_length=500) employee_id = models.CharField(max_length=500) class Customer(models.Model): user_name = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='customer') full_name = models.CharField(max_length=500) email = models.CharField(max_length=500) avatar = models.CharField(max_length=500) phone = models.CharField(max_length=500) address = models.CharField(max_length=500) I don't believe this works as intended. Would it be better to create a base usertype, for login and shared information, like user_name, full_name, phone? I created the following for that purpose: class CustomUser(AbstractUser): user_name = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='CustomUser') full_name = models.CharField(max_length=500) phone = models.CharField(max_length=30) But I'm not sure how to connect this between the other user models. Or if this is even the proper way to do it. So how can I achieve what I am trying to do, what would my models look like? -
How to insert Year choices in DateInput Widget?
I have a current widget like this: date_fr= forms.DateField(widget=forms.widgets.DateInput(attrs={'type': 'date'})) Which renders a simple datepicker on template (input type=date) However, I dont know how to limit the years. my choices: YEAR_CHOICES = [] years = calendar.get_year(0) #calendar.get_year separate py function to get the years for i, x in enumerate(years): print(x) YEAR_CHOICES.append(([x, x])) My other form: forms.DateField(widget=forms.SelectDateWidget(years=YEAR_CHOICES)) Does limit the years but it separates the month, day and year on three separate select drop downs.
