How to save data in django models taken from bootstrap form?
I'm new in Django and now I'm working on my first project. I created model 'nom' to store data and also bootstrap form in html temlplate. My question is how can I save data in my model after clicking submit button in my form in html. All answers i have found recommended me to create Form as class.

Getting a response.POST from on click Google Charts to update a Django view

How to set up my Django view to GET an external API
trying to set up my Django Rest View to properly pass an external API call. class BucketData(APIView): permission_classes = [IsAuthenticated] def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs): external_api_url = "http://localhost:3000/security?select=symbol,company" res = urllib.urlopen(external_api_url).read() data = json.loads(res) print(data) return Response(data, status=HTTP_200_OK) This doesn't seem to work and I get a: { "detail": "Not found." } error when I test out the URL: api url: urlpatterns = [ path('bucket-data/', BucketData.as_view(), name='bucket-data') ] The localhost:3000 API works, I've tested it using curl, and as well using django shell using the requests library. Also, the data avaiable through localhost:3000 is already packaged in JSON. How can I solve my error? Been trying to for a couple of days and I don't think I'm close. -
It there a way to render a partial(div) only in django and then return a html json reponse
I'm looking for a way to return a JSON response for HTML div located on Django partial template. All I want to update a div section, not the entire HTML page. Similarly to the Laravel PHP framework, they are doing this for rendering the view: if ($request->ajax()) { return \Response::json(\View::make('partial_users_table', array('users' => $users))->render()); } return view('users.index', array('users' => $users)); and in javascript: $.ajax({ url : '/users', dataType: 'json', }).done(function (data) { $('.ajax-box').html(data); location.hash = page; }).fail(function (xhr) { alert('List could not be loaded.'); }); This is what I have tried for far views.py if request.is_ajax: return render(request, 'auth_app/users.html', {'users':users}) return render(request, 'auth_app/users.html', { 'users': users }) and I'm getting just a table without the full page. -

django channels race condition
I'm using django channels to handle websocket connections. If two clients send two messages at the same time I get a race condition using channel's WebsocketConsumer. I'm assuming this happens because every connection to this consumer starts its own thread which is then handled in parallel with the other ones. So I thought I'd switch to AsyncWebsocketConsumer. I put async, await, database_sync_to_async and so on where necessary and everything works, but the race condition issue persists. I thought by using AsyncWebsocketConsumer, every connection would be handled in the same thread and calling async def receive(...) would block the thread so that every received message gets handled in sequence. What am I doing wrong? -

Embedded BPMN editor needs a working download button with django
Currently I have a HTML Page which is embedding a BPMN Modeler via https://bpmn.io/. They way it works is that I've an empty .bpmn file in my media directory and everytime I visit my page e.g. it loads the empty .bpmn file and the user is free to model his own diagram from there.

Submitting form in a modal pop-up with Django
I have a problem with submitting a delete form in a modal pop-up with Django class based views. I have a table with objects and each objects has a delete button and this button is linked-in with the modal form. When I click the delete button the modal is opening with the form and on the url is sent the object id in order to delete that object.

Edit item directly on model click in Django Admin
So, I'm making a really simple website with a following structure: Home page (one page) Services (one page) About (one page) Contacts (one page) So far I have 1 app, 4 models and in Django Admin the structure is following: App name -> Model -> Item -> Editor All I want to do is to skip step 3 in this structure in Django Admin, so when click on Home page I can directly go to edit my Home page. Now I have to click two times, because there is only one unique Item in Home page model, the Home page itself. Basically, if I have only one item in Model (or SQL table), how do I skip the list of items in Django Admin and directly edit the item? There are a few solutions, but they are more like patches: I can rename the item "Edit", but it is quite strange, because then I have to click edit two times. I can create one table (and one model) for all pages, but then it will have like 40-50 columns, also not a good solution. Thanks. -
Django Class based views for DELETE method cannot redirect to ListView
I'm using django 3.1 and class based views. When I send a request that is METHOD_OVERRIDE with DELETE and using POST, it is correctly sent to the delete view I setup. @method_decorator(login_required, name="dispatch") class ServerDetail(DeleteView): # form_class = ServerCreateForm model = Server # template_name = "core/server/create.html" success_url = reverse_lazy("servers-list") def get_success_url(self): if self.success_url: return self.success_url else: raise ImproperlyConfigured("No URL to redirect to. Provide a success_url.") def delete(self, request, *args, **kwargs): user = self.request.user social_token = SocialToken.objects.filter( account__user=user, account__provider="digitalocean" ).first() droplet_id = kwargs["pk"] droplet = digitalocean.Droplet(id=droplet_id, token=social_token.token) droplet.destroy() success_url = self.get_success_url() return redirect(success_url) def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs): return self.delete(request, *args, **kwargs) But it will fail as at the redirect to /servers/ there will be a 405 Method Not Allowed error. However, if I sent a regular POST method to /servers/:id/delete and setup the urls accordingly, the redirection is fine. So basically I cannot use DELETE when I used class based views yes?
