Getting Image from image field to views.py model
I am making a social media site in Django. I have a page for making a new post. It has a form with a file field to take an image upload. I want to get the image in views.py to save in the database. In the image variable, a string is getting saved with the name of the image. Also, I don't want to use any external form like forms.py. Here I have also tried request.FILES["image"] but it returned an empty dict. Views.py def newpost(request): if request.method == "POST": image = request.POST.get("image") caption = request.POST.get("caption") post = Post(Image=image,Caption=caption,Owner=request.user.username) post.save() return redirect("/") return render(request,"newpost.html") newpost.html {% load static %} <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"> <title>Spark X- New Post</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{% static 'css/newpost.css' %}"> <script class="jsbin" src="{% static 'js/jquery.js' %}"></script> <link rel="icon" href="{% static 'images/favicon123.png'%}" type="image" sizes="16x16" class="favicon"> <script> function readURL(input) { if (input.files && input.files[0]) { var reader = new FileReader(); reader.onload = function (e) { $('#blah') .attr('src', e.target.result) }; reader.readAsDataURL(input.files[0]); } } </script> </head> <body> <div class="header"> <span class="topband"> <a href="/"><img src="{% static 'images/back icon.png'%}" class="topicon"></a> </span> <div class="logoholder"> <p class="logotext">New Post</p> </div> </div> <div class="mainarea"> <form action="" method="post">{% csrf_token %} <input … -

Django union and if statement based on the table in database
My views.py look like this: def home(request): cars = Car.objects.all() bikes = Bikes.objects.all() vehicles_together = cars.union(bikes, all=True).order_by('power') context = { 'vehicles_together': vehicles_together, } return render(request, 'home.html', context) In my HTML I have got a redirect to the detail page, where I need to pass an id. If there was only one table involved, it would look like that: href="{% url 'detail' car.id %}" But I have data from 2 tables displayed and I need to write an If statement based on the table. Is it possible to write an If statement when union is involved? It would have to look like this: if data from table car then href="{% url 'detail' car.id %}", but if data from table bike it would pass bike.id instead of car.id. My detail view looks like this: def detail_view(request, id): car = get_object_or_404(Car, id=id) bike = get_object_or_404(Bike, id=id) photos = PostImage.objects.filter(car=car) photos2 = PostImageBike.objects.filter(bike=bike) return render(request, 'detail.html', { 'car':car, 'bike':bike, 'photos2':photos2, 'photos':photos }) -
How to forward raw email from django
So I have a raw email string I'd like to send to another recipient. I'd like to use Django for this (have 3.1 running). I know I can take my input (say raw_email) and make it a python email.Message running email.message_from_string(raw_email) but from there I'm not sure the best way. I can imagine I could do something weird like instantiate a new instance of django.core.mail.EmailMultiAlternatives and pass each argument 1 by 1 to the constructor, but that seems heavyweight. FWIW I'm not using SMTP, hence the desire to stick with django code/apis. -

Django: https://127.0.0.1:8000 not working in django
Long story short, I created a django project and used the django for professionals book 2.2 as a reference(Made a couple more fields in the models). However, once I reached the security chapter and tried running the docker commands in the terminal, I get a programming error. After researching and trying to debug, I decided to delete all migrations from the project, the volume from the docker container, and delete/comment out certain files/code. From here, I reran all the migrations and now when I check my terminal, I still get 21 unapplied migrations and "Starting development server at http://0.0.0.0:8000/". When I click on the link, I get the "Disallowed Host at / ...Invalid HTTP_HOST header:..." I am just wondering what went wrong because it seems to me that my docker-compose.yml and settings.py seems to be contributing to this error.

Why is Django giving me a completely different image from what I have?
I've been practising Django for quite awhile and so I've been redoing projects to get myself familiar with the whole process. However, when I started a new project and made a static folder, the image appearing on the website is not the new image I have in my static folder, but is the image from the previous project which has already been deleted. In fact, I've already deleted everything used in that project, but still the image I am trying to use appears as the previous one. On top of that, when I inspect element and look at sources, the image is from my previous django project and not of my new static folder. Is this a bug or feature or did I mess something up? -
I'm learing about Conda environment.yml and I'm not sure how to get Conda to find a certain version of dependancy
So I want to be able to build a environment that contains all libs I need for my project that im going to port to Docker. So far my yml looks like this: name: wt channels: - anaconda - conda-forge - defaults dependencies: - python=3.7.* - django=3.1.1 - wagtail=2.11 So judging by the compatibility link I have the correct versions to run Wagtail but when I goto call conda env create -f environment.yml I get: ResolvePackageNotFound: - wagtail=2.11 So I had a look on the Conda repo and I can't see a version 2.11. How would I get V 2.11 when can only get with v1 or v 2.7 which are both incompatible? I have checked Wagtail Github and they are on version 2.7 but version 2.1 has LTS and thats why I would like to use it. -

How do you add a constraint? in the models.py in Django to check the variable the models get?
I have a code as the following: # models.py class UserFollower(models.Model): user_id = models.ForeignKey(CustomUser, related_name="following", on_delete=models.CASCADE) following_user_id = models.ForeignKey(CustomUser, related_name="followers", on_delete=models.CASCADE) created = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True, db_index=True) def __str__(self): return f"{self.user_id} follows {self.following_user_id}" Now here, I want to check when the data is passed, if the user_id equals the following_user_id, it will output a message saying something like "It isn't possible" and not save the model. Of course later in the development, I wouldn't have the "Follow" button or something like that associated with the same user, but in this case, how would I do so?? Or is it something I can't do in the models.py and do it in the views.py? -

Django TestCase helper function inheritance

Django Has to Keep Updating The Backed Updated Info
I need technical advice about Django and I have no idea where to even look for the general direction. Right now, I have an app that keeps track of work/shift schedule. It is an Android/iOS app with a Django backend and I am the backend engineer. When a user updates their schedule and makes a backup to our server, the phone sends a long sequence of requests. This sequence starts with 'backup' URI and ends with 'vacationData' URI. When the backup is successful, the last request my server will receive will be the 'vacationData' URI. What I am trying to achieve is this: just like in Google Spreadsheet, whenever the user updates their schedule and make a backup, the "shared schedule" URI has to update accordingly. I began setting up the "share schedule" URI with Django Signals that listens to the "vacationData" URI. However, now I realize that the only user sends GET request to "shared schedule" URI and thus the shared timetable won't be updated unless the user chooses to send a new GET request to "shared schedule". Is there any way to send the updated(newly backed up) schedule info to the client regardless of whether they requested it … -
How to get msgctxt in .po file with Django and pgetttext()
I am writing a notification module for a booking app which has English and Spanish. It is supposed to be flexible enough to deal with any model and any status change (e.g. created, updated, cancelled etc). The get_subject() function will prepare a 'subject' line for the notification using the related object's model name (e.g. Appointment) and the status verb. So we should get 'Appointment 123ABC modified' or 'Payment 789XYZ created' etc. I have it working translationwise all apart from allowing for the grammatical gender of words in Spanish. So 'Appointment 123ABC modified' would be 'Cita 123ABC actualizada' whereas say, 'Payment 123ABC modified' would be 'Pago 123ABC actualizado'. I know the solution is to use pgettext(context, string) along with having the msgctxt in the .po file, but I just can't figure out how to get manage.py makemessages to add the msgctxt when it preps the .po file. I have tried various ways of editing the .po directly but I am getting errors when running compilemessages (Execution of msgfmt failed: backend/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/django.po:3966: duplicate message definition...) and makemessages just overwrites my edits anyway. I am not sure whether all I need is the right format for the po file or whether I need the …
