assertRedirect not working. Getting 302 != 201 error

Django sessions - reliability issues - must keep logging in
I have 2 reliability issue with Django sessions. The goal I am trying to achieve is if I use the account at least once a month, I don't even have to log in. 1. The quantity of sessions I am working on the website, I am the only one using it, and Django keeps creating sessions. I have 30 sessions for just myself today (I cleaned out all the sessions at the start of the day). 2. I have to keep logging in I find every now and then I have to log in again (e.g. come back the next day), or after a reboot. My Current Setup: # Set to 1 months of inactivity SESSION_COOKIE_AGE = 31 * 24 * 3600 # After every request store SESSION_SAVE_EVERY_REQUEST = True SESSION_ENGINE = 'django.contrib.sessions.backends.db' # This is the default I used to use cached DB session engine, but with SESSION_SAVE_EVERY_REQUEST i figure its pointless, as it will be a miss every time. I also thought the default DB session engine maybe more reliable (maybe be more reliable or might just be grasping at straws). For the messages storage I use Session storage. I used to use the default FallbackStorage but figure … -
Consuming JSON API data with Django
From a Django app, I am able to consume data from a separate Restful API, but what about filtering? Below returns all books and its data. But what if I want to grab only books by an author, date, etc.? I want to pass an author's name parameter, e.g. .../authors-name or /?author=name and return only those in the json response. Is this possible? views.py def get_books(request): response = requests.get('http://localhost:8090/book/list/').json() return render(request, 'books.html', {'response':response}) So is there a way to filter like a model object? -
How to POST nested Data that contains a File with Django Rest Framework?
I've been trying to post a nested object with one file and some data via django drf for a few days now. The goal is to create a story together with some images, one of these images being the title image of the story. Basically, I am able to post the story successfully with postman (see picture below). However, when I use my react js frontend for sending, I am not able to create the form data in a way that Django understands it. Django always returns the error story_media field is required. I suppose this is because Django does not understand the incoming data correctly. class Story (models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=100,blank=True) author = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True) class Story_Media (models.Model): story = models.ForeignKey(Story,on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True, related_name = 'story_media', related_query_name = 'story_media') file = models.FileField(upload_to='story_media/', null=True) isTitlePicture = models.BooleanField(blank=False, null=True) # Story Story Media Serializer class Story_Media_Serializer (serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = Story_Media fields = ('id','file','isTitlePicture',) # Story Serializer class StoryCreateUpdateSerializer (serializers.ModelSerializer): story_media = Story_Media_Serializer(many=True) class Meta: model = Story fields = ('title','story_media',) def create(self, validated_data): current_user = self.context["request"].user story_media = validated_data.pop('story_media') story_instance = Story.objects.create(author=current_user, **validated_data) for story_media_data in story_media: Story_Media.objects.create(**story_media_data, story=story_instance) # Story Create View Set class StoryCreateUpdateViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet): serializer_class = StoryCreateUpdateSerializer … -
Django elasticsearch dsl completion field issue
I am trying to implement search suggestions using django-elasticsearch-dsl-drf for streets. This is documents.py: class StreetDocument(Document): id = fields.IntegerField() name_ru = StringField( fields={ 'raw': KeywordField(), 'suggest': fields.CompletionField(), } ) ... # same for name_uz and name_oz tags_ru = fields.CompletionField() ... # same for tags_uz and tags_oz class Django: model = Street fields = ( 'code', 'street_type' ) in views.py I have this: from django_elasticsearch_dsl_drf.constants import SUGGESTER_COMPLETION from django_elasticsearch_dsl_drf.filter_backends import SuggesterFilterBackend from django_elasticsearch_dsl_drf.viewsets import DocumentViewSet class SuggestionListAPI(DocumentViewSet): document = StreetDocument serializer_class = StreetDocumentSerializer filter_backends = [ CompoundSearchFilterBackend, SuggesterFilterBackend, ] search_fields = ( 'code', 'name_ru', 'name_uz', 'name_oz', 'tags_ru', 'tags_uz', 'tags_oz' ) suggester_fields = { 'name_ru_suggest': { 'field': 'name_ru.suggest', 'suggesters': [ SUGGESTER_COMPLETION, ], }, ... # same for name_uz and name_oz 'tags_ru': { 'field': 'tags_ru', 'suggesters': [ SUGGESTER_COMPLETION, ], }, ... # same for tags_uz and tags_oz } Request to /suggestions?name_ru_suggest__completion=tolstoy does nothing, just receiving all streets unfiltered. Request to /suggestions?search=tolstoy works great, but I need autocompletion. Where did I go wrong? And that will be great if it's possible to use two fields for suggestion at once. Thanks for your time and help. -

Two different indexes on Django: One is properly connecting to the CSS but the other one isn't, despite same paths
I'm relatively a beginner in Django and I'm trying to set a website I made to simulate a store. I have two different HTML files: one being a practice store I made (mainly to try out how the cart function worked) and a polished version of the same store. Both are in the same directory. The main issue is one of them isn't changing when I make modifications to the CSS files while the other one is perfectly. Here's a snippet of the code for reference: This is the non-working HTML: <!DOCTYPE html> {% load static %} <html lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no"> <link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href=" {% static 'App/assets/images/favicon.ico' %} "> <meta name="description" content=""> <meta name="author" content=""> <title>Title</title> <script src=" {% static 'App/assets/vendor/home-banner/jquery.min.js' %} "></script> <!-- main css --> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{% static 'css/main.css' %}"> #### File in question <link rel="stylesheet" href=" {% static 'App/assets/css/home-1.css' %} "> <link rel="stylesheet" href=" {% static 'App/assets/vendor/revolution/vendor/revslider/css/settings.css' %} "> <link rel="stylesheet" href=" {% static 'App/assets/vendor/revolution/responsiveslides.css' %} "> <link rel="stylesheet" href=" {% static 'App/assets/vendor/side-menu/side-menu.css' %} "> <link rel="stylesheet" href=" {% static 'App/assets/vendor/side-menu/jquery.mCustomScrollbar.min.css' %} "> This is the working HTML: {% load static %} <html> <head> … -

How do I use button on card to change a session value?
I am making a menu that goes through a few different steps. Select the grade, then select the textbook, then select the lesson. I want to display the textbooks as cards with buttons that will bring the user to a view of all the lessons associated with that textbook. I've used session to go from the grade to the textbook, but I'm not sure how to go from the textbook to the lessons. I think the way of getting there is to have the button change the session value to that textbook, and bring me to the view that will filter the lessons by that textbook, but I'm not sure how to do that. Any suggestions would be welcome! -

invalidImageFormatError Exception The source file does not appear to be an image
So I am using fallback default image to avoid 500 error and it is not successful. I keep getting the same error "InvalidImageFormatError: The source file does not appear to be an image". In my case I try to thumbnail an image that does not exist. But it is assumed that if the image does not exist it should use the one that is in default as fallback. Any ideas? Someone who has happened in the same way and found a solution? In my case this is my code {% oscar_thumbnail child_image.original|default:'image/default.png' "450x450" format="WEBP" padding=True as thumb_child %} I am migrating from sorl-thumbnails which comes by default with django_oscar for easy_thumbnails. The tag OSCAR_THUMBNAIL is used by django_oscar and oscar replaces it with the thumbnailer that is in settings in this case easy_thumbnails. I have debugged the code, and it is entering the easy_thumb classes well ... and the parameters are arriving correctly. The thing is, it doesn't make me fallback when the image it's trying to process doesn't exist. I have a database with products that have associated images, many of these do not exist in my local environment, because in production they are in s3, and I do … -

Django:Widgets not being picked for filter with relation fields
I have the below set up for models program, courses and providers. class Program(models.Model): subtitle = models.TextField( null=True, blank=True) courses = models.ManyToManyField(Course, related_name='course_bundle') class Course(models.Model): provider = provider = models.ForeignKey( Provider, **and more **) Below is my filter for the same where I want the provider to be a multiselect as every program has multiple courses. However, looks like it does not pick the widget defined in the filter but reads directly from Meta and shows. It neither changes the label or style or anything. class ProgramFilter(django_filters.FilterSet): subtitle = django_filters.CharFilter(lookup_expr='icontains', label="Keywords", widget = forms.TextInput(attrs={ 'class': 'form-control', 'placeholder': 'Search for specialities', 'label': 'Keywords', })) courses__provider = forms.ModelMultipleChoiceField(label='Providers',queryset=Provider.objects.all(), to_field_name='courses__provider', required=False, widget=forms.CheckboxSelectMultiple(attrs={ 'class':'form-control', 'label':'Providers' }),) status = django_filters.ChoiceFilter(choices=Program.STATUS,empty_label="All") class Meta: model = Program fields = ['subtitle','cost' ,'duration','popularity','status','courses__provider'] How should we define the widget for filters with relation based properties like courses__provider.It ignores the code outside of meta completely for courses__provider but works for subtitle. -

Find django object by .id only (unknown Model)
I have two separate django (version >=2.2) apps: campus and equipment. campus Building Room equipment Camera Display Switcher Source etc. There's a lot of foreign key nesting going on, ex. source -> switcher -> room -> building, and all that works fine. I'm able to do things like source_list = Source.objects.filter(switcher__room_id=room_id) with no issues. I'm creating an API for equipment that will be using raw UDP strings, so I'm a little bit limited in how fancy it can be. My question is, can I somehow figure out what specific object is being referenced by the .id alone? I can narrow the query to the equipment app since I can figure out Building/Room based on the host IP address. In other words, my plan is to send a string from the external device with something like 1356|True|hdmi1|whatever|123|abc|stuff| with 1356 being the .id, and then in django efficiently figure out what equipment object 1356 is referring to. I'm good on the whole transport portion of getting the string into a django view, I just need to identify what 1356 is. Doing something (pseudo code) like this can't be the best way: try: Display.objects.get(id=1356) except: not a display... try: Switcher.objects.get(id=1356) except: not a … -

Celery or Schedule for django?
So I am working on a project. And it has a small module where when the user is not authenticated he can try to reset the password and I am implementing an OTP based verification for this, where the key for the otp will be stored in the database and when the user tries to reset the password a random number will be created which will be sent to the user through a email and the user can change the password. Now the problem is that I need the random number stored in the database will be changed to null after 10 min of its creation so now do I use the schedule or do use Celery for this project. -
