How to pass kwargs to the django signals
I want to send kwargs to Django signals from my serializer which is actually creating an object of a model User. Here is the create method of serializer - @transaction.atomic def create(self, validated_data): company = validated_data.pop('company') user_group = validated_data.pop('user_group') user_group = Group.objects.get(name=user_group) company = CompanyDetails.objects.create(**company) validated_data['company'] = company user = User.objects.create_user(**validated_data) user_and_group = user.groups.add(user_group) return user The User model also has a manager class as stated below - class UserManager(BaseUserManager): def create_user(self, first_name, last_name, email, mobile_number, password, company, is_mobile_number_verified=None, is_email_varified=None, is_active=None): if not email: raise ValueError("You need an email to create account") user = self.model( email = self.normalize_email(email), first_name = first_name, last_name = last_name, mobile_number = mobile_number, password = password, company = company, is_mobile_number_verified = is_mobile_number_verified, is_email_varified = is_email_varified, is_active = is_active ) user.set_password(password) user.save(using = self._db) return user In models.py I have connected to User model's post_save signal as shown below - signals.post_save.connect(user_post_save, sender=User) user_post_save is receiver method which sends email to the newly registered users. I want this method to send email only if user is registered as Organisation Admin. So how do I pass a flag as Organisation Admin= True to the receiver from my serializer's create method. -
Why does my apache2 server temporarily crash when I submit forms on my django website?
I have made a website using Django. It has login functionality and allows you two create, update and like posts. It works correctly on the development server running locally but when I set it up on apache2 almost all the functionality works. The parts that break are that whenever I create, update or like a post the page does not load and the apache server shuts down for a while. When I check the apache logs it gives an empty 408 error. I have tried making both the timeouts in the apache config larger and this has not helped. I'm sorry if the answer to this is on here as I couldn't find it despite searching if you know of one please link me. If any extra info is required please ask. Thank you! -
Django: return populated form after login redirect
I have a form for posting comments to a Django website that redirects to the login page if an anonymous user attempts to comment, then directs to the comment form after login.

How to get data from a form and store it in a variable in django
So here is the form class in views.py: class SearchForm(forms.Form): querry = forms.CharField(label='Search', max_length=10) The form is added to the concerned page as: <form action="/encyclopedia/search.html" method="get"> <input class="search" type="text" name="q" placeholder="Search Encyclopedia"> {{ form }} </form> I've tried to implement the view function in two ways: first:- def search(request): form = SearchForm(request.GET) if form.is_valid(): querry = form.cleaned_data['querry'] else: querry = None return HttpResponse(querry) second:- def search(request): form = SearchForm(request.GET) querry = request.GET.get("querry") return HttpResponse(querry) The given HttpResponse is just to check if i have successfully got the desired data inside variable "querry". In both ways, it simply returns None. I see methods to get data from POST all over the internet. Am i missing something here??? I've tried so many things. Can someone please just write a function they would use to get data from a form using GET method? I will really appreciate it. I have no idea what else to do now.... -

How do I pass parameters to Django forms?
So let me explain what I'm trying to build first. There is a question provided to each user, and the user answers. It looks like this: class Question(models.Model): question_number = models.IntegerField(primary_key=True) main_question = models.CharField(max_length = 200, blank=False, default="") sub_question = models.CharField(max_length = 100, blank=False, default="") class Answer(models.Model): authuser = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True) question_number = models.ForeignKey(Question, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True) main_answer = models.CharField(max_length = 10000, blank = True, default="") sub_answer = models.CharField(max_length = 10000, blank = True, default="") Apparently, main_answer is the answer that user inputs for main_question and the sub_answer works the same way. Then form is provided is as well, for each question. Like this: class AnswerForm(forms.ModelForm): main_answer = forms.CharField(required=True, widget=forms.Textarea(attrs={'rows' : 3})) sub_answer = forms.CharField(required=False, widget=forms.Textarea(attrs={'rows' : 2})) And finally, this is the view. Pretty standard. (As you can see, I'm using formset) def userAnswer(request, pk): AnswerFormSet = modelformset_factory(Answer, form=AnswerForm, extra=1) formset = AnswerFormSet(queryset=Answer.objects.filter(authuser=request.user.id, question_number=pk)) thisQuestion = Question.objects.get(question_number=pk) if request.method == "POST": formset = AnswerFormSet(request.POST) if formset.is_valid(): instance = formset.save(commit=False) instance[0].authuser = request.user instance[0].question_number = thisQuestion instance[0].save() return redirect('/home') context = { 'thisQuestion':thisQuestion, 'formset':formset } return render(request, 'qanda/userAnswer.html', context) NOW THE THING IS, I want to add label to each input field(main_answer and sub_answer) with respective question(main_question and sub_answer).

Is it possible to pass an instance of a class defined in one view to another view in Django
Is it possible to pass an instance of a class defined in one view to another view in Django? I tried using session and am able to pass attributes but not able to pass a method. Ideally, I'd like to pass the class instance to session directly but I get an error saying 'Object is not JSON Serializable' More context, I have 2 views. One renders a page for each user. It also declares a class (MyClass) with a method get_response() that returns a response based on an input text. def display_user(request, pk, slug): obj = MyClass(...) ... request.session['obj_name'] = obj.name request.session['obj_method'] = obj.method(input_text) # <-- how to pass method to session return render(request, 'page.html', context = {...}) I have a view that I can make api calls to get the response from the method of the class defined above. def obj_api(request, pk, slug): obj_name = request.session['obj_name'] # this works if request.method == 'POST': input_data = json.loads(request.body.decode('utf-8')) response = obj.get_response(input_data) # <-- how to get method from session ## response = request.session['obj_method'](input_data) ... return JsonResponse(response_data, status=200) Any help would be appreciated. -

Incomplete Context in Template due to ManyToManyField

Django CSRF cookie not being set inside iframe
Short story, I need my Django site to be used by a bunch third party sites. I was able to get the site to display inside iframes by using django-csp. But whenever I need any user to use a form, the main problem being the login, I get a CSRF verification error that's caused because the csrftoken cookie is not being created when the page is loaded inside an iframe. Also, I suspect any AJAX request made by the site will also fail as they required CSRF validations. I have already tried the following settings: CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS = ['mydomain.com', 'examplethirdparty.com'] CSRF_COOKIE_SAMESITE = None CSRF_COOKIE_SECURE = True It still doesn't work, I have read the Django documentation regarding CSRF and I found nothing else about this matter. I know I can disable CSRF protection but that's not an option for me. I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions to solve this. -
