How do I start my server in debug mode for my VS Code Django application?
I'm using Visual studio Code 1.52.1. I want to debug a Django application. I created this launch.json file ... launch.json { "version": "0.2.0", "configurations": [ { "name": "Run Django", "type": "python", "request": "attach", "pathMappings": [ { "localRoot": "${workspaceFolder}/app", "remoteRoot": "/usr/src/app" } ], "port": 3500, "host": "127.0.0.1", } ] } and added the sections between "start new section" and "end new section" to my manage.py file ... #!/usr/bin/env python import os import sys if __name__ == '__main__': # start new section from django.conf import settings if settings.DEBUG: if os.environ.get('RUN_MAIN') or os.environ.get('WERKZEUG_RUN_MAIN'): import ptvsd ptvsd.enable_attach(address=('0.0.0.0', 3500)) print('Attached!') # end new section if 'test' in sys.argv: print("test activated!") os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "article_project.settings.test") elif os.environ['DJANGO_DEVELOPMENT'] == 'true': os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "article_project.settings.dev") else: os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "article_project.settings.prod") try: from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line except ImportError as exc: raise ImportError( "Couldn't import Django.

Django circular import error, trying to allow location to access activity

Best model for storing list of dates | Django
I'd like to store the different launch dates for my Django object for multiple regions, e.g. object 1: US: July 29, 2014 Asia: July 30, 2014 UK: August 1, 2014 I'm not sure what is the best model to use. Is it better to create a different DateField field for each region, or is there a better way to group them all together in a JSON object, or other type? I'll be displaying them together on a page. I'm expecting to run queries to show, for example, all releases in a region, or to display the first release date for that object. Thanks -
Heroku Django cant find template
Despite that I have 'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')], in my settings, still Heroku cant find the template.

Loop through JSON from django model in template
I don't know how to loop thorugh JSON object with javascripit in template (I know how to do it in HTML part but i need it to be in javascript).

Django Get Root Path From Current URL
I am developing a Django website using the Wagtail CMS. I have a navbar at the top of the page where using template tags, it loops through pages in the navigation variable. {% for item in navigation.menu_items.all %} <a class="nav-link {% if request.get_full_path == item.link %}active{% endif %}" href="{{ item.link }}" {% if item.open_in_new_tab %} target="_blank"{% endif %}>{{ item.title }}</a> {% endfor %} Say that the URL is http://localhost:8000/blog/ and the page URL is the same, then the active class is applied to that iteration. The problem arises when I am on a page with the URL such as http://localhost:8000/blog/example-blog-post/, this does not match with http://localhost:8000/blog/ and the active class is not applied, even though I am in the blog. Is there a way to strip the URL and only keeping the root path, so http://localhost:8000/blog/example-blog-post/ becomes http://localhost:8000/blog/ so that the active class can be applied to subpages in the directory? -

Missing DataDog metrics when using ThreadStats for a Celery task in Django
The problem I have a scheduled Celery task that queries x number of rows, does some processing and upon success (or error) it increments a specific metric using ThreadStats. For each execution of this task, the metric should be incremented by x at a specific time. The problem is that some of these increments are not posted to DataDog. Ex. if the total number of rows is 100 and the task processes x=10 at a time, some of those task executions fails to increment the metric and it ends up displaying only 60. Attempts for resolution This is what I tried to do without success: Manually flushing the metrics in the task by setting flush_in_thread=False and calling the flush() method.

Geodjango + PostGIS. Aggregate polygon area in square meters

Django REST framework: SearchFilter doesn't work with 2 and more values in search bar if they are from the same field
I use SearchFilter to search for therapists: class TherapistSearchListAPIView(generics.ListAPIView): permission_classes = [IsAuthenticated] search_fields = ['first_name', 'therapist_profile__skills__title', 'therapist_profile__counselling_areas__title'] filter_backends = [filters.SearchFilter] queryset = Therapist.objects.all() serializer_class = TherapistSearchSerializer Generally It works great, but there is a problem: When several values are entered in search bar, if among these values 2 or more values are from the same field, even though the request matches with any of therapists, the search returns NULL. Example: Therapist: [ { "first_name": "Thomas", "skills": [ { "id": "0658374347844fd7b69b3d033e17f9b1", "title": "Self-reflection" }, { "id": "2c6ab46d4ebb4cb1a46c934f0c30ebbe", "title": "Patience" }, { "id": "f22c8210dd4d4a3299ea8887c1da7c30", "title": "Flexibility" } ], "counselling_areas": [ { "id": "5fb0c57ced4c41129829b3620076dda4", "title": "Body dysmorphic disorder" } ] ] If I write in search bar "Thomas self-reflection patience", it will return me NULL even though everything matches with the therapist in database. How can I fix this? Is there any solution or I need to write my own search filtering function from the scratch? -

Mock a method that raise an exception a number of times
I have looked for how to do this all day, without luck. I'm using Django 1.11 and Python 2.7 (no possibility to upgrade). I have a method that calls an external API. This API sometimes fails with 504 or 502 errors. So, we decide to, in that case, retrieve the call some times (3 times for now). So, I wrote something like this. def call_external_api(arg_1, arg_2): attempts = 3 data = None ext_api = ExternalAPI() # wrapper class, its method call the external api while attempts > 0: try: data = ext_api.get_data_details(arg_1=arg_1, arg_2=arg_2) except Exception as exception: attempts -= 1 log_message(exception) raise ExternalAPIError('Error calling EXT-API: %s' % str(exception)) return data So, I want to test this, but I do not know how to mock the exception. I know that it is possible to use @patch(SomeClass, 'method_name') to simulate the call to another class, but how to simulate the exception, so the code enters on the except branch and reduces "attempt," repeating the cycle? Notes: I thought that if I can mock the exception, I could test that log_message was called 3 times. What do you think about this approach? -
