Django: How to reduce size and increase cohesion of views
As my project is becoming bigger and bigger, I am starting to get very large CBVs because they are required to handle a lot of actions especially live responses through AJAX (More single page application style). For example I have class ScheduledBooking. It does everything from showing timelines of bookings, booking appointments and viewing/editing other appointments in one page. I utilise a variety of model managers for complex filtering/aggregation but not sure if it's Pythonic to extend it's role of these managers to handling booking actions such as allocating bookings, checking availability of bookings, broadcasting bookings (Even if they use other models)? To reduce size and cohesion of the view although the model manager then will just take on the workload affecting it's own level of cohesion. Or is there a better way/alternative for this? Another problem is the Live Responses from ajax. I use a large amount due to a single page application style although the action handling clogs up a lot of the view. I was wondering if there is an alternative place or way this can be handled? class ScheduledBooking(TemplateView, BetterFormsChoiceValidationMixin, SessionHandlerMixin, BookingMixin, AJAXFormSerialiserMixin): template_name = 'emissions_dashboard/booking_scheduled.html' def get_context_data(self): [... 20 lines..] return args def get(self, request, … -
How to add pagination to search view in django
could you please support adding pagination to the below search function based view, here is my code def post_search(request): form = SearchForm() query = None results = [] if 'query' in request.GET: form = SearchForm(request.GET) if form.is_valid(): query = form.cleaned_data['query'] search_vector = SearchVector('title', weight='A') + \ SearchVector('body', weight='B') search_query = SearchQuery(query) results = Post.published.annotate( search=search_vector, rank=SearchRank(search_vector, search_query) ).filter(rank__gte=0.1).order_by('-rank') return render(request, 'blog/post/search.html', {'form': form, 'query': query, 'results': results}) -
Custom login using Django's user template
I'm trying to make my custom login form using Django's user template. What i'm trying to do is the authentication of a user using username and password. Register works, every user is registered correctly, but when i'm trying to login using the correct fields, my: user = authenticate(request, username=username, password=password) returns None as value. Here is my def login_view in views.py (i'm using logger to know what is going on) def login_view(request): import logging logging.basicConfig(filename='mylog.log', level=logging.DEBUG) logging.debug('inizio') title = 'LOGIN' form = UserLoginForm() if request.user.is_authenticated: return redirect('board.html') if request.method == 'POST': form = UserLoginForm(request=request, data=request.POST) username= request.POST.get('username') password= request.POST.get('password') print(form.errors) if form.is_valid(): logging.debug('form is valid') logging.debug('called form.save(), result=%s', UserLoginForm) logging.debug('username, result=%s', username) logging.debug('password, result=%s', password) user = authenticate(request, username=username, password=password) logging.debug('user, result=%s', user) #### if user is not None: login(request, user) logging.debug('username, result=%s', username) logging.debug('password, result=%s', password) messages.info(request, "You are now logged in as {username}") return redirect('board.html') else: messages.error(request, "Invalid username or password.") logging.debug('primo else') return redirect('/') #### else: print(form.errors) logging.debug('errore form: , result=%s', form.errors) messages.error(request, "Invalid username or password.") logging.debug('secondo') username = request.POST.get('username') password = request.POST.get('password') messages.error(request, "Invalid username or password.") logging.debug('username, result=%s', username) logging.debug('password, result=%s', password) return redirect('/') return render(request=request, template_name="login.html", context={"form": form , "title":title}) And that's my … -

How to get anything else that a string with ChoiceField in django forms?
I created a form with some ChoiceField inside. My probleme is that I always get a string even if the value of my ChoiceField is an integer or an array. In my view I try to handle the data of the form and get something like that : formTemplate = QcmForm(request.POST) if(formTemplate.is_valid()): rep1 = formTemplate.cleaned_data['Q1'] print("REPONSE", rep1) print("::", type(rep1)) And this is what I get REPONSE : [('L', 1)] :: <class 'str'> So Here is how I defined my form and a second try I did with TypeChoiceField which wasn't sucessful : Q1_TITLE = "intitule of question" Q2_CHOICES = ( ([("L", 1)], "some item"), ([("W", 0.5)], "other item") ) class QcmForm(forms.Form): Q1 = forms.ChoiceField(choices = Q1_CHOICES, label=Q1_TITLE, initial='', widget=forms.Select(), required=True) So if I choose "some item" I get in my print a string instead of a list or a tuple. Next Try : I changeed with TypeChoiceField class QcmForm(forms.Form): Q1 = forms.TypedChoiceField(coerce=list, choices = Q1_CHOICES, label=Q1_TITLE, initial='', widget=forms.Select(), required=True) And here the result is worst, it consider my reponse as a list of character instead of a list of tuple.

Django encrypt FileField before saving it
I'm trying to save pdfs in the disk with django which is easy. However I want to encrypt them before saving them. As far as i know i should rewrite the save of the model to encrypt the file content before making the super().save() The problem is that i'm not managing to encryopt the content, i've tried with: self.file.write(f.encrypt(self.file.read())) However it does not modify anything. I'm not seeing with the debuger where the content of the file is to modify it or how should i do it. Thanks! -

Is there way to call a Javascript function when a Django Admin Popup (Add, Update, Delete) completes?
Image, I have this situation, where I have bind the change event on Person field. We rely on some JavaScript to be run each time a select value changes. It is currently listening to the change event of said element, which works fine when the user clicks a value directly in the menu proposed by the select. Sadly, when this select is populated through the Admin Popup functionality, it seems the change event is not fired for the select, as our callback is not executed, even though the element's value is actually changed. Is there another event we can listen to to get the same behaviour than when the user clicks a value directly from the list ? -

Getting the number of comments from a specific post in django
I have a little problem with a query. I work on a blog website with django.

Where to Perform Additional Operations When Using Django Rest Framework
I have a CustomUser model and am using Django Rest Framework. I have several needs before/after saving a user object. For example: Adding the user's email, first/last name to a mailchimp list using mail chimp's API. Hashing a user's password before saving. I successfully do this in the UserSerializer class thus: class UserSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = CustomUser fields = '__all__' def create(self, validated_data): groups = validated_data.pop('groups', None) password = validated_data.pop('password', None) user_permissions = validated_data.pop('user_permissions') u = CustomUser.objects.create( password=make_password(password), **validated_data) u.groups.set(groups) u.user_permissions.set(user_permissions) return u However, let's say I want to also create a user in the admin tool and not repeat this logic? Doesn't it make more sense to add this logic by overriding the CustomUser's save method, or is that problematic? What's the best solution for this use-case? -
What permissions should be given to socket files or its parent folder?
What permission should be given to a .sock file and the folder containing it ? Is permission 777 mandatory for it to work ? If not, is it still risk free to do so ? If not, what should be the ideal permission [standard practice / best practice] ? BONUS --> Any other good practices associated with socket files [e.g never keep socket file in same folder as app] POSSIBLY REQUIRED INFO: Current Permissions: drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4096 Nov 15 14:44 folder-containing-socket-files As you can see current permissions given are drwxrwxrwx or 777. Does having permissions set to 777 have any security implications here is my primary concern. Assume Django application - gunicorn - nginx Nginx is serving to a gunicorn socket in my case. My system has the following - USERS --> root , dev1 , dev2 GROUPS --> root , www-root , developers It has folder structure as follows: all_projects ├── all_apps ├── folder-containing-socket-files ├── django_proj_1 └── django_proj_2 {django_proj_1 , django_proj_2 are folders which contain the manage.py file}
