python manage.py dumpdata Access is denied
I got the error message - (ECOMME~1) C:\Users\HP\Django Projects\EcommerceProject>python manage.py dumpdata products --format json --indent 4 > products/fixtures Access is denied. I assumed it was because I had changed my databases because the default databases are not sufficient if you want mapping functionality. I read the post Django loaddata returns a permission denied for relation and asked GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE Blog&Cart for user postgres. -
My very simple Django Form not passing value to another View
I'm new to Django with a background in Database design. I spent most of my IT career developing prototypes in MS Access so this Web stuff is new to me. Now I'm trying to develop prototype reports in Django for a reporting wing of a SAAS offering. I've got a rough report developed, and if I hard-code the values to pass into some raw queries, it renders a report. Now I'm trying to make a simple form to enter a value into and pass it into the view that renders the report. (Pardon me if I'm using the correct lingo.) Here's the form for the data entry: product_batch.py from django import forms class PrdBtchSelect(forms.Form): prd_btch_nbr = forms.CharField(max_length=20) Here is the data entry HTML: prd_btch_select.html {% extends "base.html" %} {% block title %}Product Batch Select{% endblock %} {% block content %} <form action={% url 'prd_btch_dtl' form.prd_btch_nbr %} method="post"> {% csrf_token %} {{ form }} <input type="submit" value="Submit"> </form> {% endblock %} Here are the views for the data entry form and for rendering the report: view\product_batch.py from django.shortcuts import render from reports.views import sql from reports.models import Accounts from reports.forms import PrdBtchSelect # import datetime def prd_btch_dtl(request, prd_btch_nbr): """View function for … -
Where do I keep ORM in a distributed app?
I am designing a scalable web app. I have APIs (Django Rest Framework) in one container instance, Web App (Django) in another, Database (Postgreql) in another and finally CDN in another (Azurite). I wanted to decouple API since mobile apps will use the same - eventually. Question: Where do I keep ORM in this scenario? If I keep it part of Web apps, then how do the APIs recognize and use the objects? Or, if I keep them part of the API services, how do the front end (web apps) understand the objects? -

Using django without models
Is it possible to use Django but without models? Instead of models I want to use raw sql queries with help of mysql cursor. I want to implement Car Rental site to rent a car. There will be three tables: Cars, Users, Orders. Anyone can sign up on the webpage, sign in and make orders. The only limitation is that a have to do this using raw sql queries so I think that I have to avoid using models. Is this even possible? I'm new to Django and this might be dump question but need to know cause this is my academic project. -
Failing django migrate from ProcessedImageField to FilerImageField
I currently have a model for reusable images: class Image(models.Model): class Meta: verbose_name = _('Image') verbose_name_plural = _('Images') name = models.CharField( max_length=200, unique=False, blank=False, null=False, verbose_name=_('Image name') ) full_size = ProcessedImageField( upload_to='images/', processors=[ResizeToFit(height=450, upscale=False)], format='JPEG', options={'quality': 90}, ) thumbnail = ImageSpecField( source='full_size', processors=[Thumbnail(width=200, height=115, crop=True, upscale=False)], format='JPEG', options={'quality': 60} ) def __str__(self): return self.name Now I'm trying to move over to the FilerImageField from django-filer.

Can I nest similar model relationships under a custom type in Graphene Django?
Assuming I have a Django model with a number of relationships that are related, is it possible to nest them through a non-model type for querying purposes? A specific example: Assume I have a model Organization with relationships that include X_projects, X_accounts, etc which are also Django models. It is pretty easy to allow queries like: query fetchOrganization($id: Int!) { organization(id: $id) { id, ... other fields ... X_accounts { ... } X_projects { ... } } } but I would prefer to support queries like: query fetchOrganization($id: Int!) { organization(id: $id) { id, ... other fields ... X { accounts { ... } projects { ... } } } } Given that X doesn't actually make sense to be a Django model / relation on the backend, is there a way to achieve this? -

Django group and sum QuerySet for template
Hoping someone can help! Apologies if the question isn't well written, this is my first post. I am trying to pass a queryset through to a template - I get an error if I do not pass the id through (ID1 in example output below) but I do not want to do that as it interferes with a group by: ID1 Staff No. Week Start Hours Staff ID 1 12345 2020-10-24 15 1 2 12345 2020-10-17 7.5 1 4 12345 2020-10-17 10.0 1 Basically, I want the output to grouped to display only TWO rows (2020-10-17 should be one row with 17.5 hours in total).

Timestamp keeps updating in admin

I can't use model field created because __init__ runs first. But in the above code, after creating the model instance and id_str assigned, when I refresh the admin page, id_str also gets refreshed to an updated timestamp. Why does datetime.now() refreshes itself in admin? -
How to get data from another table by using foreign key and JOIN in django and display it in angular using restapi

How do you turn a new-style middleware class into a decorator for generic DRF views?
I have middleware that I need for certain views. I don't want the middleware to run globally, so I would like to decorate some generic DRF views with it instead. I'm guessing that this should be simple to do, but I haven't had much luck. I was trying to use the decorator_from_middleware decorator with the middleware, but that appears to only work with old-style middleware. Below is a simplified example of what I am trying to do. class LoggerMiddleware: """ Middleware that logs Request and Response context """ def __init__(self, get_response): self.get_response = get_response def __call__(self, request): response = self.get_response(request) # capture the data I need here return response This decorator fails with the middleware, but I do not know what to replace it with. @decorator_from_middleware(LoggerMiddleware) class TestView(CreateAPIView): def post(self, request): return Response({'detail': 'attempting this'}) -

How to create a User object when creating another object with OneToOne relationship in Wagtail

Can't configure django TinyMCE in settings.py while it's possible in html script
I used TinyMCE for django for a prior project and as far as I remember, it was possible to configure in django settings.py file. Now, I'm working on another project but couldn't find any solution to make it done except adding the TinyMCE configuration js script to the template I want to use it on.
