Cannot assign "<User: user.name>: must be a "User" instance
I am having an issue writing a custom django migration where I am trying to set a field value for a model to a user. The model in question is shown below (CustomerMachine). This model uses the django-simple-history module to track changes in model instances. I am attempting to query the instance history in the migration and set the review_submitter value to the last user which edited the instance. The result of the history query history_user returns a <class 'django.contrib.auth.models.User'> type, but when I try to set the review_submitter to that value I get the following error: ValueError: Cannot assign "<User: user.name>": "CustomerMachine.review_submitter" must be a "User" instance. Any insight into whats going on here? simplified class example class CustomerMachine(models.Model): review_submitter = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, default=None) history = HistoricalRecords() custom migration from __future__ import unicode_literals from __future__ import absolute_import from django.conf import settings from django.db import migrations, models from django.contrib.auth.models import User from acceptance.models import CustomerMachine def set_submitter(apps, schema_editor): machines = apps.get_model('acceptance', 'CustomerMachine') for machine in machines.objects.all(): history = CustomerMachine.history.filter(serial=machine.serial) if history: history_user = history.last().history_user machine.review_submitter = history_user machine.save() def reverse_func(apps, schema_editor): pass # code for reverting migration, if any class Migration(migrations.Migration): dependencies = [ ('acceptance', '0031_auto_20200914_1611'), ] operations = [ migrations.RunPython(set_submitter, … -

Django can't get REMOTE_USER
I need to create SSO Authentication using Kebreros in my Django project. I faced with problem when tried to get username from request.META['REMOTE_USER']. KeyError happens. It seems that variable REMOTE_USER is not set but I don't understand why. I added RemoteUserMiddleWare and RemoteUserBackend as it's said in docs. MIDDLEWARE = [ 'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware', 'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware', 'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware', 'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware', 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware', 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.PersistentRemoteUserMiddleware', 'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware', 'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware',] AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = ['django.contrib.auth.backends.RemoteUserBackend',] Apache config: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName test.wit.net ServerAlias test.wit.net DocumentRoot /var/www/test.wit.net/public_html ProxyPass / http://localhost:8000/ ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8000/ ProxyPreserveHost On ProxyTimeout 300 RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto "http" <Location "/"> # Kerberos authentication: AuthType Kerberos AuthName "SRV-APP auth" KrbMethodNegotiate on KrbMethodK5Passwd off KrbServiceName HTTP/test.wit.net@WIT.NET KrbAuthRealms WIT.NET Krb5Keytab /etc/krb5.keytab KrbLocalUserMapping On Require valid-user </Location> SSO works Apache authentificate user successfully, but I can't pass REMOTE_USER to Django.

Create new models from an existing one
need some help with the next issue: I got this model in Django: class myModel(models.Model): Name = models.CharField(max_length=50) parameter1 = models.IntegerField(null=True) parameter2 = models.IntegerField(null=True) # # parametern = models.IntegerField(null=True) The "Name" field is limited to 5, and it gets data to update the rest of the fields, giving as result a main table with n entries wich repeat name but have differents parameters. I want to create 2 table from this main one as follow: The first table has to group up the data by names adding the values of each parameter. The result should be a table with 5 names and the total of each parameter. The second table is the same, but giving the average for each parameter. One solution may be to create and delete each table every time the main table its updated, but im not sure if this is the best way to do it. appreciate any help! Thx to everyone! -

restore postgreSQL database on Django project
I'm working on an application that runs on Ubuntu 18.04, it consists of Django App and PostgreSQL server, each on runs in a separate Docker container. I created a backup for my database, so I can keep it and runs it on a test server for test cases. Now I'm moving my backup database to another test server, but the problem is when I run: docker-compose -f production.yml up both containers of Django & PostgreSQL run fine, the problem is which should I do first to make everything working on the test server, like everything working on the production server? should I restore backup database first then run: python manage.py migrate or should I migrate then restore backup database, actually I ran both, and each time after successfully end both I got this error: ProgrammingError at /accounts/login/ so what should I do to restore backup database? Anther question: I tried to ignore the backup database and just run: python manage.py migrate and create a database from scratch but I got the same error as before!!! I'm there is something common I'm wrong with, so help me with any information on the theory of backup database, please. -

TypeError when Django authenticate function tries to bind to custom authenticate function
I am attempting to implement an authentication method where: the user submits their email I generate a token for that user that is stored in the database, or I retrieve the token if it already exists I generate a link to log in and email it to the user, with the token as an HTTP parameter The token is extracted from the link and used to search for an active user The user info is passed to the template Note that this isn't for any mission-critical production software - I'm reading the Obey The Testing Goat O'Reilly book and this is the authentication method the author has us implement. So when the user clicks the link in their email, this is the view function that handles it: from django.contrib.auth import authenticate, login def login(request): uid = request.GET.get('uid') user = authenticate(uid=uid) if user is not None: login(request, user) return redirect('/') In that view function, we call the authenticate function that is provided by django.contrib.auth. Here is that function: def authenticate(request=None, **credentials): """ If the given credentials are valid, return a User object.

How to reload Django context from JavaScript w/out redirect?
I am developing a dictionary application and a simple bookmark page where bookmarked definitions are displayed. I am using JavaScript to add/remove a definition to/from bookmarks through a button. The button works. However, when I am on the bookmarks page and I press it to remove a definition from my bookmarks, the definition stays there until I reload the page. I would like the definition to disappear as soon as I hit the button through JavaScript. I tried to remove the parentNode of my button (the div for definition) but it looks horrible, and that's not what I am looking for. I am now trying to send an AJAX request to my Django bookmarks view to re-load the context, but so far I haven't been able to do it. Can anybody help? Here is my Javascript code (the ? is where I am stuck): function toggleBookmark(event) { // Get definition id. let id = event.target.id.split("-")[1]; // Send AJAX request to bookmark view. $.get("/bookmarks/bookmark/" + id, function (data) { if (data.added) { alert('Definition added to your bookmarks.') event.target.innerHTML = 'Remove definition from your Bookmark'; } else if (data.removed) { alert('Definition removed from your bookmarks.') event.target.innerHTML = 'Add definition to your Bookmarks'; … -

Crispy Forms: Align dynamically
I add some forms to my page dynamically - I always start with a name field and add multiple others depending on a database entry in the data field: class ProductModelForm(ModelForm): class Meta: model = Product fields = ("name", "data") def __init__(self, user, *args, **kwargs): super(ProductModelForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) user_layouts = models.Layout.objects.filter(user__id=user.id) all_fields = {} self.helper = FormHelper() self.helper.form_method = 'POST' HTML_SAVE = HTML(f"""<button type="submit" name="submit" value="save">save</button>""") NAME_FIELD = Column(Field('name'), css_class='form-row') self.helper.layout = Layout(NAME_FIELD) DATA = Field("data", type="hidden") for i in range(0,n): tmpField = Column(Field( ...), css_class=...) self.helper.layout.append(tmpField) self.helper.layout.append(HTML_SAVE) Now my problem is, that because of using column I get a new line for every entry - but I actually would like the forms to be aligned more space preserving. But I never know which kind of form I add - could be a MultipleChoiceField, a BooleanField or a simple CharField. Is there a way so cripsy will align the forms for me in the page?

Passing model field as a slug to URL
models.py: class Article(models.Model): title = models.CharField('Title', max_length=99) slug = AutoSlugField(max_length=99, populate_from='title', unique=True) view_counter = models.IntegerField(default=0) topic = models.ManyToManyField('Topic', related_name='articles') country = models.ManyToManyField('Country', related_name='country', blank=True) class Country(models.Model): slug = models.CharField(max_length=50) name = models.CharField(max_length=50) urls.py: urlpatterns = [ path('', ArticlesListView, name='articles-list'), path('api/', ArticlesApiView, name='articles-api'), path('<slug:country>/', ArticlesListView2.as_view(), name='articles-list1'), path('nope/<slug:slug>/', ArticleDetailView.as_view(), name='article-detail'), ] views.py: class ArticlesListView2(ListView): model = Topic template_name = 'articles/articles-list.html' def get_context_data(self, **kwargs): context = super().get_context_data(**kwargs) context["topics"] = Topic.objects.values() context["countries"] = Country.objects.values() return context I want to pass manytomany model field to url. When I run this code, I get the page, but with a problem. If I write a value that doesn't exist into URL, it doesn't throw error. It shows it as it exist. How can I pass it? Giving slugfield to manytomany field gives error as well.
