Django Inheritance one model choice field from another
I have couple tables in DB. class VehicleBrand(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=128, unique=True) class VehicleModel(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=128, unique=True) class Vehicle(models.Model): link = models.CharField(max_length=256, unique=True, blank=False, null=False) model = models.ForeignKey(VehicleModel, on_delete=models.PROTECT) brand = models.ForeignKey(VehicleBrand, on_delete=models.PROTECT) I tried to crate form with two ModelChoiceField depending one from another. I have first Field (just all items from VehicleBrand) # first field brand = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=VehicleBrand.objects.all()) Next I want to get qs of models depending of first choice: # get brand brand = VehicleBrand.oblects.get(name=brand) # get qs for all items with chosen brand qs = Vehicle.objects.filter(brand=brand) # I want get second field with choices as list of distinct models values model = qs.values('model').distinct() For example I have next table 1 link1 Toyota Corolla 2 link2 Toyota Camry 3 link3 Nissan Altima 4 link4 Nissan Almera If I choose 'Toyota' I wanna have only models for it: 'Corolla' and 'Camry'. I wanna get it in one page dinamically depending of first(brand) field. Is it possible? Could someone give me advise please? Thanks. -

Nextcloud as User Master for other web apps (i.e. django based)
I have a Nextcloud instance where all potential users have an account. I would like to set up an Open Source Doodle (Bitpoll) that is django based, as I don't like the nextcloud poll app. For security reasons I would like to limit the Doodle app to users of my nextcloud. Also I don't want them to enter a password using the doodle app (so single sign on is required). I imagine a similar user user flow as the Login in with Github button that can be used to also create user accounts. The doodle app supports LDAP, so does nextcloud. There are django modules for OAuth as well as for the nextcloud. I have no LDAP experience at all and only very little OAuth experience. With which Nextcloud Settings / Apps and which Django Apps (and an idea of the settings) can I realize the explained scenario? To be more precise: Do I need to use LDAP at all? Or can I configure OAuth in a way that all users that come from nextcloud.mydomain.org generate a new account in the app? What are the correct OAuth terms for my nextcloud istance and for the doodle app in this scenario? … -
Images not showing after about 1 day of upload with editors (ckeditor)
I host my files on Digitalocean space. Almost everything works fine. The only issue is that I am unable to see images uploaded with editors for instance ckeditor after about a day of upload. This does show at first but fail to display by second day. When I tried to preview the image to ascertain what is wrong, I encountered this kind of error: <Error> <Code>AccessDenied</Code> <RequestId>txgjk006000a4ca-47ce82d-nyc3bkkhv**""**</RequestId> <HostId>47ce82d-***********zg02</HostId> </Error> Note: I replaced some things with ****.

Nested Serializer in case of multiple children models

How to serialize ChoiceFields in Django Rest Framework?
First time Python user here, coming from Javascript world. I'm able to retrieve my Model serialized to JSON from Django API and display it on the frontend written in React. But now I just added one more field priority to the Model that has multiple choices and I struggle to get these choices to the frontend (I want to display them in a dropdown and update REST API). Migration was successful and I can select choices from the back end but on the frontend I just get the default value set from migrations. Here is my code right now: models.py class Todo(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=120) description = models.TextField() completed = models.BooleanField(default=False) priority_choices = [ ('High', 'High'), ('Medium', 'Medium'), ('Low', 'Low'), ] priority= models.CharField(max_length=6, choices=priority_choices, default='Low') #new field def __str__(self): return self.title serializers.py from rest_framework import serializers from .models import Todo class TodoSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = Todo fields = ('id', 'title', 'description', 'completed', 'priority') views.py class TodoView(viewsets.ModelViewSet): serializer_class = TodoSerializer queryset = Todo.objects.all() I just want the simplest solution, preferably to just update TodoSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer) class inside serializers.py so that it would all come from this one Model. Is that possible? Reading https://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/fields/#choicefield is not clear for me whether I need … -

Django: What's the difference between Queryset.union() and the OR operator?
When combining QuerySets, what's the difference between the QuerySet.union() method and using the OR operator between QuerySets |? Consider the following 2 QuerySets: qs1 = Candidate.objects.filter(id=1) qs2 = Candidate.objects.filter(id=2) How is qs1 | qs2 different from qs1.union(qs2)? Is there some subtlety under the hood that I'm missing? -
Evaluating Django QuerySet is fast, but still consumes a lot of server time
Using Django Query Profiler, I get the following results when loading my page. My query only takes 48ms to run, but the total server time is nearly 2 seconds! I have been able to verify that the query is fast by printing out the raw query and then running it manually. The relevant code in my ListAPIView view looks like: def get_queryset(self): start = time.perf_counter() queryset = MyModel.objects.all() \ .prefetch_related( # Prefetch related fields ).defer( # Don't select these fields ) print(len(queryset)) end = time.perf_counter() print(f"Evaluation time: {(end - start):.2f}s") return [ # Return hardcoded JSON result with single value to eliminate other factors ] The print(len(queryset)) statement is where the evaluation occurs. For some reason, this takes almost 2 seconds to complete, but only 48 ms of it is spent on the database. For some perspective, there are only 11 rows in MyModel. I wanted to rule out the possibilities that the server time was due to transforming the data, serializing the data, etc., so I am just returning a single JSON object. Given that all the other views in my application work just fine, I see no reason the server time can't be at least 10x faster. Any … -

Why does django-channels not connect to secure Websockets wss?
I am trying to deploy my django = app to heroku. All features work except for the chat which uses Websockets. Keep in mind all everything works on my local machine.

Sending Django email through Postfix as a relay to Mailjet
I have a Django project on Ubuntu and I setup Postfix to send emails through Mailjet following this article. That works good to send message from the command line or scripts using mail. I am currently using django-anymail to send Django messages through Mailjet and it works but I was wondering if I could avoid the django-anymail dependency since I got Postfix to send messsages through Mailjet, but I could not make it work. The goal I guess is to safely allow SMTP to relay the Django messages from localhost, which is not enabled by default. The Django config I tried is: EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend' EMAIL_HOST = 'localhost' EMAIL_PORT = 587 EMAIL_HOST_USER = '' EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = '' EMAIL_USE_TLS = True Not sure how to congig Postfix though. -

Format django_filters form

Test and Verify AWS Redis Integration with Django project
I am new to Django. I was trying to implement Redis cache system into my Django project. I am using AWS free tier to host my Django project on EC2 machine using gunicorn web server and trying to integrate AWS Redis Cache. I have added below entry in my settings.py file: CACHE = { 'default': { 'BACKEND' : "redis_cache.cache.RedisCache", 'LOCATION' : "redis://xxx.xxx.xxxxx.cache.amazonaws.com/1", 'OPTIONS' : { 'CLIENT_CLASS' : 'redis_cache.client.DefaultClient', }, } } And below is my view function: def usertable(request): obj = userdetails.objects.get(id=1) name = obj.name if cache.get(name): cache_name = cache.get(name) print ("From CACHE") else: cache_name = obj.name cache.set(name, cache_name) print ("*****************FROM DB********************") context = { 'name' : cache_name, } This code is working for me and I can see From CACHE printed in my terminal. But the key value pair which is set if I manually connect to redis using below cli tool: redis-cli -h xx.xx.xxxxx…cache.amazonaws.com -p 6379 -n 1 on giving keys * I do not see any key value pair is set. I am not sure if this is the correct way to test integration of Redis cache. Kindly advice if anyone had tried Redis Cache system. -
How to pass a variable inside a fetch() for static files in Django?
I'm developing an app that displays Highcharts charts in Django and the graph is typically created by reading the content of a JSON file stored in my static files like so: fetch("{% static 'myfile.json' %}") .then(......) Now I've got a dropdown list from which the user can select the json file name and I'd like to pass it to the fetch() function, but I can't figure out how to make it work. For instance: var resultStr = "{% static 'myfile_with_id_XX.json' %}"; fetch(resultStr) .then(.....) this returns a GET 404 error instead of fetching the appropriate json file. How should I format resultStr so that it can be passed in fetch()? And how should I write the fetch() function ? Many thanks for your help! -
Celery - Django Schedule task from inside a scheduled task
I have a Task (let's call it MainTask) that is scheduled using apply_async method, this task has some validations that can trigger another task (SecondaryTask) to be scheduled with an eta. Every time the MainTask tries to schedule the SecondaryTask using apply_async method, the SecondaryTask runs inmediatly, overriding the eta parameter. How can I schedule a different task from a "Main Task" and to be executed later, using eta? Here is an example of the code: views.py def function(): main_task.apply_async(eta=some_day) tasks.py @app.task(bind=True, name="main_task", autoretry_for=(Exception,), default_retry_delay=10, max_retries=3, queue='mail') def main_task(self): ... if something: ... another_task.apply_async(eta=tomorrow) @app.task(bind=True, name="another_task", autoretry_for=(Exception,), default_retry_delay=10, max_retries=3, queue='mail') def another_task(self): do_something() -
DRF: Simple Switch for a choice field in model via router

The interface I see looks like this: while I was hoping for a simple dropdown between 0 and ... 3 in this case. Also how would the router have to be registered? Right now I put a path in the urls.py: path('test/', views.OnOff.as_view(), name = "on-off"), which means it will not be listed under 127.0.0.1:8000/api/ which would be nice.

Django VSCode: How to make django-html format as expectedl?
I've seen a ton of unanswered questions about VSCode formatting (and if not here, where do you ask these questions?). There are 2 main issues I run into constantly when I'm trying to write django-html templates. 1. Basic HTML tag linebreak doesn't occur in django-html files. When you write an html tag, and press enter inside of it, it should split the tag with an empty line in the middle like. Expected behavior (pipe "|" represents the cursor): <!-- Write the tag --> <div>|</div> <!-- Press enter --> <tag> | </tag> Here's what's happening in the django-html file after enter: <!-- Press enter --> <tag> |</tag> How do you fix this WITH proper template tag formatting (below)? 2. Django template tags don't indent as expected. Tags within if, with, block, etc. tags should be indented. (treated like html) Expected result: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> </head> <body> {% if x %} <p>I did x</p> {% else %} <p> I did else</p> {% endif %} <nav class="navbar"> </nav> {% block content %} <div class="content"> <p>I'm in contente</p> </div> {% endblock %} </body> </html> Instead, the html tags within the django template tags are flattened on the same indent level. Actual result: <!DOCTYPE … -
Django JavaScript template block
I'm learning Django and JS and jQuery all at the same time for a project I'm working on, and I'm having trouble with running JavaScript in a Django template block OTHER THAN {% block content %}. I've seen several tutorials use a {% block javascript %} template block for JavaScript, but I can only get my JavaScript to run if I include it in the {% block content %} block of the html file. If I include it in a like I've seen in the tutorials, it doesn't work (and neither do other functionalities, like html tags). Here's my base template: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no"> <title>{% block title %}{% endblock title %}</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/css/bootstrap.min.css"> <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/popper.js/1.12.9/umd/popper.min.js"></script> <script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script> {% block style %} {% endblock style %} </head> <body> {% block content %} {% endblock content %} {% block javascript %} {% endblock javascript %} </body> </html> This works: {% extends 'base.html' %} {% block content %} {% load static %} <div class="container-fluid"> <form id="med_input_form"> <div class="form-group" > {% csrf_token %} <label for="{{form.input_meds.id_for_label}}">{{form.input_meds.label}}</label> {{form.input_meds}} </div> <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Reconcile Meds</button> </form> </div> <div class="container-fluid"> <ul id="med_output"> </ul> …
