How do I allow the authenticated user to retrieve their API credential from the database automatically?
I am relatively new to Django and I am struggling how to go about a feature that I want to implement. For the feature, I need to get a set of secondary credentials (used to authenticate against third-party software API), hashing the credentials, and then storing it in the database. These creds can then be called by the authenticated user associated with those secondary credentials, unhashed, and then used to make the API connection. My question is, how do I allow the authenticated user to retrieve their API credential from the database automatically? Currently, I have a custom user model set up under a new app called users and in the models.py as: import uuid from django.db import models from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser, BaseUserManager class UserManager(BaseUserManager): def create_user(self, email, username, unique_id, first_name, last_name, password, **other_fields): email = self.normalize_email(email) user = self.model( email = email, username = username, unique_id = unique_id, first_name = first_name, last_name = last_name ) user.set_password(password) user.save(user=self._db) return user def create_superuser(self, email, username, unique_id, first_name, last_name, password, **other_fields): email = self.normalize_email(email) user = self.model( email = email, username = username, unique_id = unique_id, first_name = first_name, last_name = last_name, password = password ) user.is_admin = True user.is_staff = … -

Data loss in an inline formset
I am developing an application which allows an administrator to create several projects and within those projects different tasks can go, the idea is that when the administrator creates a project within that form he can also assign multiple tasks, for this I am using inline formset because I feel That meets my needs, but I have a problem and it is that when I click the button to add more tasks, the select where are the types of tasks is lost.

Django Test with setting up DB extensions
For my project i'm using PostgreSQL with pg_trm and unaccented extensions that I enable by executing a script into the DB.

How to apply css classes to the TimeDurationWidget in Django
I am trying to apply css styling to my modelform. from durationwidget.widgets import TimeDurationWidget class WeightDistanceTimeModelForm(forms.ModelForm): weight = forms.DecimalField(widget=forms.NumberInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Weight', 'class': 'form-control', 'step': 2.5})) distance = forms.IntegerField(widget=forms.NumberInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Distance', 'class': 'form-control'})) time = forms.DurationField(widget=TimeDurationWidget(show_days=False, show_hours=True, show_minutes=True, show_seconds=True), required=False) My weight and distance fields are showing up how I'd like but does anyone know how I can apply a placeholder and class of form-control to each of hours, minutes and seconds. I can't seem to find any documentation that explains this anywhere. Alternatively, is there a better way to display this information? I have also tried adding the class directly into my template: <div class="form-control"> {{ form.time }} </div> But this didn't work either -

How would I be able to set an usb barcode scanner to compare the scanned id to the id in the database table in Django?
First of all, I'm pretty new to programming in general. I've been trying to learn Django/python. I've had an app in mind that i started building. The app would be used to track users coming in and exiting the building. The data that would be stored in the database is the User, date and time at the exact moment of entering/leaving the building, temperature, location of the building. Ok so I have my database set up with the tables. Now the User has an id which is represented in a barcode. The problem I have now is that I want to create a homepage that is empty with just a few words like: Please scan your barcode. And when the barcode is scanned I want the page to redirect to the form for adding a new database entry but is populated with the user data. I don't know how to do that, that's my problem here. -
Retrieve access_token subsequent to login with mozilla_oidc_connect
After I have logged in and authenticated a user with mozilla_django_oidc I need to subsequently use the access token to call an API. mozilla_django_oidc offers to store the access token in the session variable but this is insecure so I'd like to run a second call against the OIDC provider. I need to pull out the logic from OIDCAuthenticationBackend that will retrieve the access token in order to do the API call. I could re-authenticate but that sounds like it will be a pain. -
how to use django 3 with django-otp to send token sms using SMS service provider for user verification and redirecting to password reset form?
I have only been able to make the following changes in django code: settings.py: added along with other apps added in INSTALLED_APPS = [ ..... 'django_otp', 'django_otp.plugins.otp_totp', ] In additions to other middleware configurations, added: MIDDLEWARE = [ 'django_otp.middleware.OTPMiddleware', ] urls.py: from django_otp.admin import OTPAdminSite from django_otp.plugins.otp_totp.models import TOTPDevice admin_site = OTPAdmin(name='OTPAdmin') admin_site.register(User) admin_site.register(TOTPDevice) urlpatterns = [ path('admin/', admin_site.urls), #otp app path('dadmin/', admin.site.urls), ] Then I ran: $ python3 manage.py migrate otp_totp --fake and runserver. Created a user and totp device. Scanned the qr code in google authenticator. Then tried logging in using the admin url to login for this new user. It asks for the token generated which I input, it says invalid token though user is authenticated. Seen other posts where the secret code needs to be converted to 32basecode etc, but don't know exactly and where to implement. What more code needs to be added to get this working? I will require detailed code and steps for my use case where i need to change the time for generating the code and send via sms using my service provider api and redirect to password reset form.

Expose GET-Params for django-filter als CamelCase
I was wondering if I can expose the GET-parameters required for django-filter somehow as CamelCase instead of snake_case. Meaning changing http://example.com/api/v1/object/list?my_parameter=hello to http://example.com/api/v1/object/list?myParameter=hello. I know that I can transform the output of djangorestframework to CamelCase with this neat package: https://pypi.org/project/djangorestframework-camel-case/ I googled around for some time but couldn't come up with a clean solution. Help much appreciated. -

django NoReverseMatch Error when trying to link template to a view function
I'm trying to add a delete object function to an app I'm building and when I try to link to it in my template, I get...
