Can't run Pycharm Debugger using WSL2
I have a project that has in PostgreSQL, Celery, Redis, RabbitMQ via docker containers. I'm facing an issue with PyCharm's debugger when running a DRF project in WSL2(Ubuntu). The project runs success in normal mode, but when I start the debugger, it hangs and eventually fails with "Handshake failed" errors in the logs. The full command executed is: /home/myuser/myproject/venv/bin/python3.11 /home/myuser/.pycharm_helpers/pydev/pydevd.py --multiprocess --qt-support=auto --port 29781 --file /home/myuser/myproject/manage.py runserver 8000 Here’s a snippet of the PyCharm logs: 025-03-06 12:48:04,336 [6128385] WARN - #c.j.p.PythonHelpersLocator - Helpers pro root does not exist C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Programs\PyCharm Professional\plugins\python-ce\helpers-pro 2025-03-06 12:48:04,337 [6128386] WARN - #c.j.p.PythonHelpersLocator - Helpers pro root does not exist C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Programs\PyCharm Professional\plugins\python-ce\helpers-pro 2025-03-06 12:48:04,337 [6128386] WARN - #c.j.p.PythonHelpersLocator - Helpers pro root does not exist C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Programs\PyCharm Professional\plugins\python-ce\helpers-pro 2025-03-06 12:48:04,338 [6128387] WARN - #c.j.p.PythonHelpersLocator - Helpers pro root does not exist C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Programs\PyCharm Professional\plugins\python-ce\helpers-pro 2025-03-06 12:48:04,454 [6128503] INFO - #c.i.e.wsl - WSL mount root for Ubuntu is /mnt/ (done in 114 ms) 2025-03-06 12:48:04,493 [6128542] WARN - #c.i.u.Alarm - Do not create alarm without coroutineScope: com.intellij.ui.GotItTooltip.(GotItTooltip.kt:94) 2025-03-06 12:48:04,508 [6128557] INFO - #c.i.u.WinFocusStealer - Foreground lock timeout set to 0 2025-03-06 12:48:06,295 [6130344] WARN - #c.j.p.d.p.t.ClientModeDebuggerTransport - [92734501] Handshake failed 2025-03-06 12:48:11,303 [6135352] WARN - #c.j.p.d.p.t.ClientModeDebuggerTransport - [1988656345] Handshake failed … -
Why is Django not using the specified cache backend?
As a simple test, I'm attempting to set the cache backend used by Django to something other than the default django.core.cache.backends.locmem.LocMemCache. I'm using a custom backend defined in the django-bmemcached package, which uses the python-binary-memcached module to access a Memcached instance with authentication. I've set the backend in the settings.py file, with the relevant snippet below: CACHES = { 'default': { 'BACKEND': 'django_bmemcached.memcached.BMemcached', 'LOCATION': <ip>:<port>, 'OPTIONS': { 'username': <username>, 'password': <password>, } }, } The settings.py file is being used by the application, but the default cache being used is not the specified cache backend: >>> from django.conf import settings >>> print(settings.CACHES) {'default': {'BACKEND': 'django_bmemcached.memcached.BMemcached', 'LOCATION': <ip>:<port>, 'OPTIONS': {'username': <username>, 'password': <password>}}} >>> from django.core.cache import caches >>> print(caches['default']) <django.core.cache.backends.locmem.LocMemCache object at 0x73bf66531720> This isn't caused by a third party package overriding the cache backend, and the Memcached instance can be accessed and operations performed successfully if a client for the backend is instantiated: bmemcached.Client(<ip>:<port>, <username>, <password>). Using a different binding, such as pymemcache, and setting the backend to a Django supported django.core.cache.backends.memcached.PyMemcacheCache still results in the above issues described where the default cache being used is not the specified cache backend. If at all possible, I'd like to be … -
How to Conditionally Render Mobile and Desktop Ads in Django to Prevent JavaScript Overlap?
I'm working on a Django project where I need to display different ads for mobile and desktop users. Currently, both mobile and desktop ad JavaScript is being loaded, which causes conflicts as the mobile ad scripts interfere with the desktop ads. Here's a simplified version of my template code: <div class="ads-mobile"> {% ad_simple_tag "mobile_ads" %} </div> <div class="ads-desktop"> {% ad_simple_tag "desktop_ads" %} </div> I'm using Cloudflare, which caches the pages, so I can't rely on server-side logic (like middleware) to determine which ads to display, as the result would be cached. I attempted to use JavaScript and/or css to detect the device type and hide/show or remove the ad blocks accordingly, but both ad scripts are still being loaded, causing issues. How can I ensure that only the relevant ad scripts are loaded based on the user's device type, considering that the page is cached by Cloudflare? Is there a client-side approach or best practice for handling this kind of situation in Django? -
How to apply Apache BasicAuth with IP-based access control for django project
I have a Django application and I am using Apache to manage access control. I want to restrict access to django project with this logic -> Allow access only from specific IP addresses. If the request comes from an IP address outside the allowed list, users should be prompted to authenticate using username and password defined in .htpasswd Apache .htpasswd username:encryptedpassword Apache virtual Host <VirtualHost *:80> LoadModule wsgi_module "/var/www/example.com/venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/mod_wsgi/server/mod_wsgi-py310.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so" DocumentRoot /var/www/example.com ServerName example.com WSGIDaemonProcess myapp python-home=/var/www/example.com/venv python-path=/var/www/example.com:/var/www/example.com/venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages WSGIScriptAlias / /var/www/example.com/example/wsgi.py process-group=myapp <Directory "/var/www/example.com/"> AllowOverride All Require all granted <Files wsgi.py> Require all granted </Files> </Directory> Alias /static/ /var/www/example.com/static/ <Directory /var/www/example.com/static/> Require all granted </Directory> <Directory /var/www/example.com/> AllowOverride All Require all granted </Directory> <Location /> AuthType Basic AuthName "Restricted Access" AuthUserFile /var/www/example.com/.htpasswd Require valid-user <RequireAny> Require ip x.x.x.x Require ip x.x.x.x Require valid-user </RequireAny> </Location> </VirtualHost> Desired behaviour Users accessing any URL in the application from allowed IP addresses should have unrestricted access. Users from non-allowed IP addresses should be prompted for authentication via apache(.htpasswd) Problem is If I am inputing username and password prompted by apache, django gives { "detail": "Invalid username/password." } I dont want to remove headers at apache level because some of my url requires authentication implemented … -
Django images not loading after setting `DEBUG = False` on PythonAnywhere
I have deployed my Django project on PythonAnywhere, and everything was working fine when DEBUG = True. However, after setting DEBUG = False, none of my images (media files) are loading. What I Tried: I have set up MEDIA_URL and MEDIA_ROOT correctly in settings.py: MEDIA_URL = '/media/' MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media') I also ran python manage.py collectstatic --noinput and my static files are loading correctly. The images are uploaded and exist in the /home/myusername/django_ecom_web/ecomprj/media/ directory. I checked the file paths in the browser and they return a 404 Not Found error. How I Fixed It: After some research, I found that Django does not serve media files in production when DEBUG = False. To fix this in PythonAnywhere, I had to: Go to Dashboard → Web → Static Files section. Add the following mapping: /media/ → /home/myusername/django_ecom_web/ecomprj/media/ Reload my web app. After doing this, my images started loading correctly. My Question: Why does Django not serve media files in production when DEBUG = False? Is setting up a manual media mapping the only way to serve media files on PythonAnywhere, or is there a better approach? -

Cannot resolve keyword 'mem_ev' into field in Django
I have a small Django project that consists of 2 models (Event, mem_ev) plus auth User and Profile such that Users --< mem_ev >-- Events (ie a classic many to many relationship between Users & Events). I want to be able to list all events for a member and all members for an event both of which entail a join between the main dataset and mem_ev.

Django generates complex SQL instead of simple OR condition
I'm encountering an issue where Django's ORM is generating an unexpectedly complex SQL query from a simple function. The function checks if there are any recent or upcoming matches by applying filters for team participation and public season checks on alive matches. Instead of a straightforward OR condition, the generated SQL includes a nested subquery: SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "scheduler_season" WHERE "scheduler_season"."id" IN ( SELECT U0."id" FROM "scheduler_season" U0 WHERE (U0."enddate" >= ?::date AND U0."schedule_is_public" = ?) ) OR "scheduler_season"."id" IN (?, ?, ..., ?) Expected query: SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "scheduler_season" WHERE ("enddate" >= ? AND "schedule_is_public" = ?) OR "id" IN (?, ?, ..., ?) Why does Django create this complex subquery, and how can I modify the Django query to generate the simpler expected SQL? -

In Django 5.1 difference between Model and AbstractUser
I am looking at the Django Documentation and am a bit confused as the differences between: from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser from django.db.models import Model I tried doing the following in a class and got an error that has to do with the following topic: Python multiple inheritance and MRO The error emerged because I had done the following: class Employee(Model, AbstractUser): pass When I went to make migrations in Django, an error message said it violated MRO. When I searched what that meant on Google, I found a Stack Overflow post that mentions that it happens when it can't decide between the two classes, a specific value, or a method. In my research, there might be a conflict amongst similar methods in class. I am expecting to have an Employee that has a custom authentication, and is an entity in the database. How would I go about achieving this, do I have to pick AbstractUser over Model? -

django rest framework, how to override a field so that "null is zero"
Hello I have a Model with a field that is not null on the database -the field "amount". However on the api-level this field can be skipped, which should then be stored as the default value. I have tried several ways, however I keep coming back to the fact that to_internal_value() isn't executed for fields when the value is None? Even though the field has allow_null to be True? class NullIsZeroDecimalField(serializers.DecimalField): def __init__(self, **kwargs): super().__init__(allow_null=True, default=0, **kwargs) def to_internal_value(self, data: Primitive) -> Decimal: """Convert None or empty strings to 0 before validation. :param Primitive data: the input data return Decimal: decimal value """ print('internal value') if data is None or data == "": return Decimal(0) return super().to_internal_value(data) class ModelWithAmountSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): amount = NullIsZeroDecimalField(max_digits=20, decimal_places=10) class Meta: model = AmountModel fields = ("amount",) def test_serializer(self): serializer = ReceiptLineSerializer(data={"amount": None}) is_valid = serializer.is_valid() self.assertEqual(serializer.validated_data["amount"], Decimal(0)) However here the assertion fails. And upon research it turns out that the "to_internal_value" is never called for "none" fields. it is just short-circuited. How to overcome this? And if possible, could I instead of defaulting to "0" default to the "default-of-the-model-definition"? IE as if the value is omitted when creating the model? -

Message ID: 19561950e1b649a0 However, when I receive the email, no attachment is visible. Here's the email-sending code I'm using: from django.core.mail import EmailMultiAlternatives from django.template.loader import render_to_string from django.utils.html import strip_tags from django.conf import settings from email.utils import formataddr import base64 logger = logging.getLogger(__name__) def send_damage_invoice(driver_data, pdf_content): """Send damage invoice email with PDF attachment.""" try: logger.debug("Preparing damage invoice email for %s (%s)", driver_data['name'], driver_data['vrm']) subject = f'Damage Charges Invoice - {driver_data["vrm"]}' from_email = formataddr(('H&S Autocare', settings.DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL)) to_email = driver_data['email'] # Create context for email template context = { 'driver_name': driver_data['name'], 'vrm': driver_data['vrm'] } # Render email content html_content = render_to_string('emails/damage_invoice.html', context) text_content = strip_tags(html_content) # Create email message email = EmailMultiAlternatives( subject=subject, body=text_content, from_email=from_email, to=[to_email] ) email.attach_alternative(html_content, "text/html") # Attach PDF filename = f'invoice_{driver_data["vrm"]}.pdf' logger.debug("Attaching PDF: %s (size: %d bytes)", filename, len(pdf_content)) email.attach(filename, pdf_content, 'application/pdf') email.send(fail_silently=False) logger.info("Email sent successfully to %s", … -
Django Webhook Unauthorized Issue on Azure Despite Successful Local Testing
I have a Django + React project hosted on Azure. I'm using Azure Postgres as my database, and my webhook handler is set up to receive events from an external API (Seal Subscriptions). The webhook subscriptions/create event sends a POST request to my Django backend at: https://vitaverde-backend.greensky-92f80007.eastus.azurecontainerapps.io/shopify/webhook/subscription/ However, I keep getting the following error in my Azure backend log stream: ws 11 128676314590080 Received webhook request 2025-03-04T00:39:38.1700588Z stderr F ERROR 2025-03-04 00:39:38,169 views 11 128676314590080 Unauthenticated user request 2025-03-04T00:39:38.1701766Z stderr F WARNING 2025-03-04 00:39:38,170 log 11 128676314590080 Unauthorized: /shopify/webhook/subscription/ Debugging Steps Taken Tested Webhook Locally: I wrote a test_webhook.sh script, which successfully sends a POST request with the correct headers and HMAC signature.

What is the proper way to handle saving a large amount of huge graphs
I currently use Django 4.2.5 and django-rest-framework 3.14.0. I need a way to handle saving a large amount of huge graphs ~1_000_000 of ~5_000 node's graph. My current database is mariadb, MySQL. I found a lot of different solutions: A graph oriented database such as Neo4j Using SQL relations, by having and intermediate database for parents / children relations Using JSON data and re-construct graph when need it in graph form But none of these solutions are fully advantaging. What solution would you recommend and why ? -
Is it a good idea to let Django server React? What are the pros and cons?

Django How to deal with database locking
I have two functions, periodic_signals(), and update_choice(), and use postgres. update_choice() is called once users make a new choice, and update the database. periodic_signals() is called every 0.1s using Threading.timer, and reads users' choices from the database, and do some stuffs, then send signals back to users, and plot them in real time. When periodic_signals() is called every 1s, I don't have any problems. When periodic_signals() is called every 0.1, everything I call update_choice(), there is a pause in my plot, and I can see the execution time of update_choice() increases 10x. Is it because I read and write to the same row almost at the same time, causing database locking? How can I solve it, except to improve the performance of these two functions (at the moment both function take about 0.005-0.02s depending on the number of users)?
