How to make login in django via login/pass from database?
There is a table 'user' in db which has an attributes 'login', 'password' 'name' and others. How should i make login page? Passwords stored in non-encrypted type (just '1234') (1) I tried this: def check_login_password(request): args = {} args.update(csrf(request)) if request.POST: login = request.POST.get('login','') password = request.POST.get('password', '') user = auth.authenticate(username=login, password=password) if user is not None: auth.login(request, user) return redirect('/test') else: args['login_error']="User not found!" return render(request, 'registration/login.html', args) else: return render(request, 'registration/login.html', args) But this function does not see users in db (user is always none), i only could login via superuser login/pass. (2) I tried use included Django authentication method with abstract user model: path('login/', auth_views.LoginView.as_view(template_name='registration/login.html'), name='login'), - urls.py But it doesn't work too. Hope, you will help me make login page. -
Barcode Image is not being displayed on my html webpage
I have a django project which i'm using to create an inventory management system. I have a html website which shows the product description. It should also show the barcode image which is generated by the code.

Intercepting Django fields access
I understand that Django fields are Python descriptors. Is it possible that I do something extra when I access the field of a Django model? For example, articleInstsnce.author normally returns an Author object, can I also make Django print a log during the access? -

How to add/edit/modify Django permissions on the frontend?
I am working on a Django/Python application that allows users to add employees but I am not sure how to go about adding custom permissions to different employees. For example: Employee one is a manager and needs the manager permission, this gives the manager access to all permissions. A new employee only needs viewing access. An employee needs permissions to edit/update forms, etc. If I am trying to create custom permissions to allow for managers to add those custom permissions to other employees, how do I go about that, from the front end? I know I can do it all in the back end, but I am just simply trying to allow for front end users to manage and add/edit permissions for other users/employees. I have it set up to where they can add new users, but how can I allow for adding custom permissions to individual users, all from the front end? Thank you for your help. -

It works fine when I use username = mock_get_user_from_db(1) instead of the username = get_user_from_db(1) Question: It this the expected behaviour that username = get_user_from*db(1) returns "Alice" in my case? (in the youtube video it returns "Mocked Alice") or am I just doing something wrong? -
In django rest famework serializer, how to change unique validator queryset dynamically
I'm using multiple databases. And every database has the same models. for example there is a concrete model A class AModel(models.Model): name = models.CharField("A name", max_length=10, unique=True) and a drf ModelSerializer class AModelSerializer(serilaizers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = AModel # from above fields = ['name'] And a proxy model which has a custom manager which uses a specific database class CustomManager(models.Manager): def get_queryset(self): return super().get_queryset().using("test") class ProxyModel(AModel): objects = CustomManager() class Meta: proxy = True and even if I dynamically change ModelSerializer's Meta.model to ProxyModel in init, name field's UniqueValidator queryset still refers to A.objects.all() not A.objects.using('test') What I figured out is ModelSerializer only refers concrete model fields, the model it is defined and their model's default manager, which in turn AModel.name, AModel and AModel's default manager in this case. Actually I solved it before using defining concrete models from an abstract model for each databases. and then set ModelSerializer model to abstract class, and then change ModelSerializer's Meta.model to a concrete model. So as I told it refers correct concrete model. but it seems error prone cause some of the code should be hard coded. and I hope to solve this problem more generically. Give me any idea. and if … -
Django Performance improvisation with async views
I am relatively new to django! In my django project i had lot of views and every view had database I/O operation and also had chat application in the same project using django channels (it don't had any database I/O). Now i am using wsgi application with gunicorn and only django channels part( web socket requests) with asgi using daphne. I referred lot of documentations and I realized that Database I/O operations should be performed in async for effective utilization of resources and django had added async support recently. So should I change all the views to async views, remove gunicorn and use only asgi server like daphne or uvicorn for the complete project? I don't have any idea about async implementation for ORM and views, If this sync to async migration make a lot of difference then i will learn and migrate, if not then i will leave as it is, So can someone please suggest me what shall i do now? -

How to handle authentication with Telegram Bot in Django-rest-framework
I've reviewed all related questions, but I'm currently facing a problem for which I'm uncertain about the best approach. I have a web application built with Django and django-allauth. Telegram Bot login has been successfully implemented, and everything is functioning well. In addition, I have a Django Rest API within the same project. Here are my Authentication Backends: AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = ( 'registration.authenticate_backend.EmailOrUsernameModelBackend', 'allauth.account.auth_backends.AuthenticationBackend', ) REST_FRAMEWORK = { 'DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES': [ 'rest_framework.permissions.DjangoModelPermissionsOrAnonReadOnly' ], 'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': [ 'rest_framework.authentication.BasicAuthentication', "rest_framework_simplejwt.authentication.JWTAuthentication",]} What I aim to achieve is as follows: Users join my TelegramBot, and through it, they should be able to manage their accounts and retrieve information via my Django Rest API. However, I'm unsure about how to handle authentication for these requests. Currently, I've implemented a solution by extracting the user_id from the messages that Telegram sends to me and directly using Django ORM. Nonetheless, I would prefer to leverage my API for this purpose. Thank you! -

How to connect my mysql and mongoDB database in my django using web-scraping to populate my databases as a part of my backend?
Background: I'm working on a Django project where I need to populate my database with information about clubs, such as names, addresses, and contact information. The database models are already set up in Django. Models: I have models for City, Club, Event, UserProfile, Review, and Booking.
