Checking in views whether the object passed in context exists or not
I am working on a basic django website . I am having a cart view as following: def cart(request): customer=request.user.customer order, created=Order.objects.get_or_create(customer=customer, complete=False) items=order.orderitem_set.all() context={ 'items':items, 'order':order, 'types' : Category.objects.all(), } return render(request,"cart.html",context) The items is the products that the customer has in his cart. I want to perform a check whether if the cart is empty(that is there are no items) then I can show a message that cart is empty and then can redirect to a certain page . I am trying to find a way to perform this check and show a message that cart is empty. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. -

Django DataError at /admin/posts/post/add/ integer out of range
I'm getting an integer out of range error when I create a new post in Django Admin. This is DRF project with a Post model that uses a UUIDField as id which is the primary key. It seems like the ID field is causing the problem but I don't understand how the UUIDField can be out of bounds. None of the remaining fields like Title or URL could be out of range. When I go to create a new post in the Admin dashboard, I get this error message after I click the Save button: DataError at /admin/posts/post/add/ integer out of range Request Method: POST Request URL: http://localhost:8000/admin/posts/post/add/ Django Version: 3.0.7 Exception Type: DataError Exception Value: integer out of range Exception Location: /Users/username/Desktop/Workspace/project-api/venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/db/backends/utils.py in _execute, line 86 Python Executable: /Users/username/Desktop/Workspace/project-api/venv/bin/python Python Version: 3.7.3 Here's the Model: class UUIDModel(models.Model): id = models.UUIDField(primary_key=True, editable=False, default=uuid.uuid4) class Meta: abstract = True class TimeStampedUUIDModel(UUIDModel): created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True, editable=False) modified_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True, editable=False) class Meta: abstract = True class Post(TimeStampedUUIDModel): creator = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name="posts") title = models.CharField( _("Title"), max_length=255, blank=False, null=False) description = models.TextField( _("Description"), max_length=1500, blank=False, null=False) url = models.URLField(_("URL"), unique=True, max_length=155, blank=False, null=False) country = models.CharField( _("Country"), max_length=120, blank=False, null=False) post_image = … -
The data in the 2nd plot in vertically stacked Plotly sub-plot not being displayed correctly in Django 3.1 app
I am running a Django 3.1 app using plotly to display an interactive chart in a .html template file. I am trying to create a plot using the subplots functionality. The plot has 2 rows and 1 column. The first row correctly displays the first chart which is a Candlestick plot of daily stock prices. The second row of the plot was to be a bar chart of the volume for each of the days of the stock price. When I run the app, I receive no server errors and the .html page loads as expected. However, the second plot should be a bar chart of the volume but the chart is blank. The plot correctly displays the yaxis and xaxis title and values for the tick as expected for the Volume data. If I set the axis_rangeslider_visible to True, then the chart displays the rangeselector in the 2nd chart where the volume data should be. The axis labels still display the expected values and labels as if the volume data is plotted. The following code is from my views.py file within the Django app. from django.shortcuts import render from django.contrib.auth.mixins import LoginRequiredMixin, UserPassesTestMixin from django.views.generic import ListView, DetailView, CreateView, … -

Converting embedded images to img
I'm working backend with a wagtail headless CMS and the frontend is JavaScript. I'm using a RichTextField and on the API it shows the image like this: "<embed alt="a" embedtype="image" format="fullwidth" id="3"/>" so because its embedtype it can't be shown on our page. I need to change the type to img with a src. I haven't tried anything because i don't even know how to start.

Is there any way to link existing inputs to django form?
Working on an app, I initially started developing the UI via QT (PySide2) but I paused it to work on a full "online version" via Django. The fact is that I'm learning/discovering the framework and how it works step after step. For all HTML I'm building those on Bootstrap Studio which help me to save A LOT of time and of course make things totally easier for me. My current problem is that I just discovered how not simply inputs/forms works in Django (My own opinion !). My app works with several bootstrap modals in order to Add/Edit "element" which are the kind of instances of my app and which will be write/read/edit in database. The problem here is I already created all HTML pages and related modals and I can't find any way on the internet to link my existing modals to Django forms. As far as I understood Django forms "caricaturaly" works like this : Django generate a form that you have to dynamically integrate to your HTML. The fact is it doesn't really arrange me because : I already have my modals with their inputs looking how I want I don't really want a bad looking forms … -
How to stop Folder name to Store in Databse in Django?

Django-allauth for admin authentication using staff_member_required decorator: ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS for non-staff users
I am using django-allauth for the authentication workflow to my django admin site. The relevant snippet in my project-level urls.py file: from django.contrib import admin from django.contrib.admin.views.decorators import staff_member_required admin.site.log = staff_member_required(admin.site.login, login_url = 'accounts/login') admin.autodiscover() ... However, if a registered user, who is not a staff member logs in, the result is an ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS error. Ideally I would like to redirect the user to an 'access denied'-page. I looked at the documentation for the staff_member_required decorator, but I did not find a solution for how to redirect a user if the user is not a staff member but still registered. Does anyone have an idea? -

POST Request works on POSTMAN but fails on my React
Hello so I have a Django API whereby I have the following in my DB: lecturer module video date So when I make a POST request to create another entry to my DB with POSTMAN everything works just fine leaving me to believe that my API is definitely handling everything properly. So now when I try to make a POST request on my client-side when I submit the data I get the following error: [*] Error: {'video': [ErrorDetail(string='The submitted data was not a file. Check the encoding type on the form.', code='invalid')]} So I honestly do not know where I could be going wrong with how I am handling this request can I please get assistance with regards to this matter.

Django's SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT and Heroku causes redirected Rest Framework POST requests to become GET requests
I have Django project hosted on Heroku There's a web-application and a Django REST API. I'm using SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT and SECURE_PROXY_SSL_HEADER = ('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO', 'https') to redirect all http traffic to https. The web-application is happy. If I try to use a http link, it redirects to https, and I can use forms, etc. For the Django REST API, if I try a http link and a POST request, it redirects successfully to https but the method becomes a GET and the API requests the request (because it is meant to be a POST). I do not know if this is expected behaviour, or if this is a Heroku specific thing. If it's expected for redirects, I'd appreciate to understand why (from a technical point). And or if there is a solution. -

How to post data to a locally hosted Django rest API
