How can I install Ubuntu production server in Godaddy hosting server
So I tried my best to create a full-stack app with Django & React and I built it. And I did want to learn how to deploy the application to Linux/Ubuntu server and wanted to fallow this article. Godaddy provides a Cpanel, not a Ubuntu server. So I was wondering how can I install the Ubuntu production server in Godaddy hosting server. I don't have any experience with Linux or Cpanel or any hosting service (it is my first time buying the domain and hosting server) it would be nice to have a detailed answer. I am open to any kind of advice. Thank you for reading. -

Define variable on django project startup
I am trying to make one variables.py (reusbale module that can be used by other py files in the app) in my django project which should be set only once when the runserver command is executed. ex. reading a csv file using pd.read_csv once at the startup of the project so that every time an API call is made, variable should not load csv file instead it should already have the dataframe value already in the variable.

How do I see the value of a field belonging to my model with the method I defined in restapi?
I can access the foreground in my model with "Advertising.frontal.get". But how can I see this in restapi. The value of the frontal area in restapi appears numerical. Because of the way I describe this area. This is normal. But I know the method I should use when viewing (this method: Advertise.frontal.get).

How to use Django to make a dependent dropdown list from a database I would like to write to as well
I have seen many tutorials of how to pull information using a foreignKey in the models for a dropdown list, but I'd like to keep everything on the same table if possible. First I use AddAreaForm to add the Area, then AddMachineForm, using the Area(in a dropdown) and Machine being typed in. As detailed below this gets me to the point where I have Area and Machine drop downs in the AddTasksForm, but I'd like to make the Machine dropbox dependent on the Area using the SOME VARIABLE(Line 5 in Forms Codeblock and it is defined as area_id on line 4 in Views Codeblock).

How can I prepopulate a form in class based views with url variable <str:>

Should extra fields be an extension of User or Profile in Django?
I am beginner in Django and currently practising by building a calorie counter website where users can register. When they register, I want to ask them for some mandatory fields such as their goal weight, activity level, current weight, current height, etc. Do I add them to a class called Profile(models.Model) such as : class Profile(models.Model): user = models.OneToOne(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE) bio = models.CharField(max_length=500) image = models.ImageField(default="", upload_to="profile_pics") weight = models.FloatField(min_value=1.0) #metric tbd height_metric = models.FloatField(min_value=1.0) #in cm goal_weight = models.FloatField(min_value=1.0) or should I create a custom User model that extends the default User model provided by Django? (or a third option) Thanks -
How to add an extra parameter to a Django object when creating it?
I have a Django model that has many parameters, amongst which is one called 'system' which is a reference to an object of type 'System'. class Format(models.Model): system = models.ForeignKey(System, on_delete=models.SET_NULL, null=True) petition_date = models.DateField(auto_now=True) resolution_date = models.DateField(null=True, default=None) ... other fields ... The system may be null, but I'd want this field to be the same as the user that creates the Format object. My user object is like this: class CustomUser(AbstractUser): current_system = models.ForeignKey(System, on_delete=models.SET_NULL, null=True, default=None) department = models.ForeignKey(Department, on_delete=models.SET_NULL, null=True, default=None) I have a form which successfully creates the Format objects. However, I'd like to know a way to do something like this in my CreateView: class FormatCreateView(LoginRequiredMixin, CreateView): """ -----------------------Vista de crear nuevos articulos-------------------------- """ template_name = 'format_form.html' model = Format success_url = reverse_lazy("formats:formats") form_class = FormatUpdateForm def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs): form = FormatUpdateForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): user = User.objects.get(id=self.request.user.id) format = self.object # I'm pretty sure this is wrong and doesn't get the Format object that was just created format.system = user.current_system format.save(update_fields=['system']) return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('formats:formats')) This, however, doesn't work. Any suggestions would be appreciated. -

Foreign key values do not appear in related rendered table using accessor (django-tables2)
I am trying to display a table with a Tool model as well as a publication DOI model that has the tool as a foreign key. Django (django-tables2) is just not having it and displays - instead of actual values. There are no shortages of examples (Django-tables2: How to use accessor to bring in foreign columns?, Django Tables 2 Field Accessor backward relationship, Accessing related models with django-tables2) and it seems simple, but I cannot get it to work. Here is a bit of code... models.py class DOI(models.Model): """Model representing a doi model.""" doi = models.URLField(verbose_name='DOI', max_length=300, default='', blank=True) tool = models.ForeignKey('Tool', on_delete=models.SET_NULL, null=True) ... class Tool(models.Model): tool_name = models.CharField(verbose_name='Package Name', max_length=200) release_date = models.DateField(verbose_name='Release Date', null=True, blank=False) ... tables.py class ToolTable(tables.Table): tool_name = tables.Column(linkify=True) doi = tables.Column(accessor='doi.doi', linkify=True) id = tables.Column(linkify=True, orderable=False) ...

getting the COUNT of unique values on django queryset with for loop
newbie here on django and django-rest-framework. May I ask if it is possible to get the COUNT of the unique values on a for loop? I have encountered this use case where I need to get the the COUNT of all unique values on a for loop querysets. The implementation was to loop within the querysets and put on the list all the unique objects and return the len() of it. The problem with this implementation was it causes multiple queries on the DB base on django-debug-toolbar. Please see code below for reference. Is there another way to implement this? Thank you in advance. activity_list = [] classes = Class.objects.all() for class in classes: student_activities = class.studentactivity_set.all() for activity in student_activities: if activity not in activity_list: activity_list.append(activity) return len(activity_list) -
Django with vue.js frontend - Static Files Path
I am attempting to serve a django app with a vue frontend and need some help configuring the static files. Django serves the built index.html from vue, however it can not find the static files (scripts/css) that are autoinjected from the build process due to the path being "absolute". I have modified the vue.config.js to not autoinject the scripts (since they will need {% static %} during the build, and the template index.html to add them in appropriately. My directory structure is as follows: - Root - app - migrations - templates - app (outputDir) - index.html (Built from vue) - base.html - templateFolder1 - templateFolder2 - various .py files - assets (assetsDir) - css - static files - js - static files - frontend - public - index.html (Template for build for vue) - src - assets - components - App.vue - main.js The build is run from the frontend directory, with --no-clean to not delete my django templates folder on build. Here is my workaround for adding {% static %} tags to the built index.html. I realize I am breaking the convention vue has that assetsDir is a subdirectory of outputDir, and I am not opposed to adding …
