Get client UUID from browser
I want to get client UUID, when user accesses my website. Actually, I am will be encrypting something a user can download and it will open in my application only. In my application I am getting UUID on the run and decrypting using this: os.popen('wmic csproduct get UUID').read() Everything it working fine, now the only limitation is that I couldn't find any way to get UUID of the client from my website, so that I can encrypt along with some other hashes that my application know and can add as salt and decrypt. My website id developed on Django. Note I think I need to write some script that user will download and it will send me the data all the time and then I will allow the user to download, anyone can guide me on this ? I know you can ask what if user changes the system etc. I just want to get UUID for now I have taken care of other things already. For now lets say I want to work on windows only, no Linux or Mac user -

Django Foreign key on Modelform
I'm working on the project that Django tutorial provides. I'm just trying to expand functionality like: login, registration, poll CRUD and so on. I have two models: class Question(models.Model): question_text = models.CharField(max_length=70) describtion = models.TextField(null=True, max_length=200) pub_date = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) def was_published_recently(self): return self.pub_date >= timezone.now() - datetime.timedelta(days=1) was_published_recently.admin_order_field = 'pub_date' was_published_recently.boolean = True was_published_recently.short_description = 'Published recently?' def __str__(self): return self.question_text class Choice(models.Model): question = models.ForeignKey(Question, on_delete = models.CASCADE) choice_text = models.CharField(max_length=200) votes = models.IntegerField(default=0) def __str__(self): return self.choice_text Thet connected via foreignkey. So, each choice has it's own question. And set up in admin dashboard,so if i try to create new question i can add as many choices i want. I just configured it in admin.py. Problem is this I want to have a form that user can submit a question and its choices. I've done first part that user can create poll question, but cannot handle to add choices while creating question itself. Choices should automatically connected to Question. Please help me solve this problem. My ModelForm looks like this class QuestionForm(ModelForm): class Meta: model = Question fields = ['question_text','describtion'] widgets = { 'question_text': forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'form-control','placeholder':'Enter name for poll','id':'title'}), 'describtion': forms.Textarea(attrs={'class':'form-control','placeholder':'Enter name for poll','id':'describtion'}) } -
Using PyTorch with Celery
I'm trying to run a PyTorch model in a Django app. As it is not recommended to execute the models (or any long-running task) in the views, I decided to run it in a Celery task. My model is quite big and it takes about 12 seconds to load and about 3 seconds to infer. That's why I decided that I couldn't afford to load it at every request. So I tried to load it at settings and save it there for the app to use it. So my final scheme is: When the Django app starts, in the settings the PyTorch model is load and it's accessible from the app. When views.py receives a request, it delays a celery task The celery task uses the settings.model to infer the result The problem here is that the celery task throws the following error when trying to use the model [2020-08-29 09:03:04,015: ERROR/ForkPoolWorker-1] Task app.tasks.task[458934d4-ea03-4bc9-8dcd-77e4c3a9caec] raised unexpected: RuntimeError("Cannot re-initialize CUDA in forked subprocess.

Django model - making db value as dependent from others values from db
i have models as follow: models.py class Book(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=100) author = models.CharField(max_length=30) cat = models.IntegerField() read_pages = models.IntegerField() total_pages = models.IntegerField() read_pages_of_book = models.FloatField(default=round(read_pages/total_pages, 2)) status = models.BooleanField(default=(False if read_of_book < 1 else True)) Please consider read_pages_of_book variable. Is this possible to have value like that as dependent from other values? Or maybe I shouldn't keep this value in db and just use both 'read_pages' and 'total_pages' on my views.py and the send it as a context? I'm really trying to understand this concept and to use it well so for any help i will be gratefull. -
