Django static files using s3
I am having problems using an s3 bucket for my sites static files. Currently using django-storages and boto3. In my setting.py I have: AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID = env("AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID") AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY = env("AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY") AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME = env("AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME") AWS_S3_FILE_OVERWITE = False AWS_DEFAULT_ACL = None AWS_S3_CUSTOM_DOMAIN = f'{AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME}.s3.amazonaws.com' AWS_LOCATION = 'static' STATIC_URL = f'https://{AWS_S3_CUSTOM_DOMAIN}/{AWS_LOCATION}/' STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'storages.backends.s3boto3.S3Boto3Storage' Running collectstatic sends static files to the s3 bucket successfully, but the static urls in my templates do not update.

Django 'PdfFileWriter' object has no attribute 'get' - Creating PDFs in Django
I'm trying to generate PDFs in my Django web app using Reportlab & PyPDF2. The goal is to create a canvas with some product information & then layover that canvas on top of an existing PDF template to "fill" the template. I tested my code in Jupyter, It works fine, however, I need some help to use that code in a Django view. The following code is working in Jupyter. from PyPDF2 import PdfFileWriter, PdfFileReader import io from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas from reportlab.lib.pagesizes import letter packet = io.BytesIO() # create a new PDF with Reportlab can = canvas.Canvas(packet, pagesize=letter) can.drawString(493, 724, " ".join('2009')) # hardcoded for testing purposes(will later use a form allowing the user to enter details) can.save() packet.seek(0) new_pdf = PdfFileReader(packet) # read your existing PDF existing_pdf = PdfFileReader(open('path to my existing PDF template here - template_file.pdf', "rb")) output = PdfFileWriter() # add the "watermark" (which is the new pdf) on the existing page page = existing_pdf.getPage(1) ######## select 0 to get first page, and 1 to get second page page.mergePage(new_pdf.getPage(0)) output.addPage(page) # finally, write "output" to a real file outputStream = open("destination.pdf", "wb") output.write(outputStream) outputStream.close() in order to use it in django, I created a view class … -
Django - size of ArrayField based on a field value of a related model
I have 2 models: Report and STO with a one-to-many relationship between them, so a STO can have many related reports. STO model class STO(TerminableWithTerminableRelatedModel): name = models.CharField(_('name'), unique=True, blank=False, max_length=255) description = models.TextField(_('description'), blank=True, null=True) answer_no = models.PositiveSmallIntegerField(_('number of answers'), default=5) # that's the value I'm interested in result_note = models.TextField(_('STO result note'), blank=True, null=True) Report model class Report(models.Model): @property def answer_no(self): return STO.objects.get(id=self.STO).answer_no date = models.DateField(_('date'), blank=False, null=False) STO = models.ForeignKey(STO, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='reports') answers = ArrayField(AnswerField(), size=answer_no, blank=False, null=False) # here comes the problem As you can see, each Report has an array of AnswerField (AnswerField is a custom field, I've omitted it because it's out of the scope of this question). The size of this array should be specified on the related STO class, on the answer_no field. I made this decision because this value is equals for each report of a given STO, so inserting that in each single report would lead to data duplication. I've tried to achieve this using a property, but Django complaints that he can't serialize properties when doing migration: ValueError: Cannot serialize: <property object at 0x7faf02161ea0> There are some values Django cannot serialize into migration files. -
How to save form with relationship in django?

Run Django on Docker with Daphne and Gunicorn
At the moment I am trying to run a project in Docker where I need to implement websockets to my productive Django Server, so I decided to use Daphne. For now I used Gunicorn and Nginx along with Postgres as Database. My first thought was now to use Supervisor to run Gunicorn and Daphne on the same server: Container: Django + Gunicorn + Daphne Container: Nginx Container: Postgres But a Docker Best Practice is to run every process on an own container. So my thought now is to run Daphne and Gunicorn on different Containers, so Gunicorn serves the Website-Data and Daphne takes over the Socket-Things. Like: Container: Django + Gunicorn Container: Django + Daphne Container: Nginx Container: Postgres But will this work? What about the Database? Are two servers able to edit the same tables? What about the sessions and data, how to sync data between the two servers? Overall, are there any Best Practices for using Django with Daphne and Gunicorn the same time on Docker? Thanks in advance for your help! -

Python Script to test out multiple variants of email addresses
I am new to programming and Python and I am testing out an idea for emails. I want to see if I can create a Python script that will allow me to do 3 things. Allow the user to Input a name and an email url. Insert multiple variants of email name possibilities. Send out a test email to all the variants and return of one of them worked. For number 2, there would be an already set list of the most common variations such as(John.Smith, John-Smith, etc..) I have figured out how to send out emails but I am having trouble with 1 and 2. I’m not sure if a simple “for loop” will work be how to set the parameters. Thanks for your help. It’s a stupid project but I’m hoping it will help me see it a little differently -

How to send data to particular listening channel on client side using Django channels, when data is posted through REST?
Here is the scenario. I have an django channels app, which also consist of restapi framework (DRF) with just one view, which expects a POST call, with data. Once I get the data on that POST endpoint I wish to notify all or particular client connected via websocket (html websocket) So, creating an endpoint was the easiest one, and that has been achieved, and then using async_to_sync(channel_name)({}) (an example) is not being listened by the frontend client. Any working example of this please? -
Django Gunicorn different type of timeout
I serve a Django app with Gunicorn (using Heroku) and Sentry for monitoring. I regularly receive 2 different types of timeout error on Sentry: SystemExit 1 in gunicorn/workers/base.py in handle_abort at line 201 WORKER TIMEOUT (pid:12345) at the Gunicorn level For the second one, It produces H13 errors in Heroku which according to the docs means: This error is thrown when a process in your web dyno accepts a connection but then closes the socket without writing anything to it. One example where this might happen is when a Unicorn web server is configured with a timeout shorter than 30s and a request has not been processed by a worker before the timeout happens. In this case, Unicorn closes the connection before any data is written, resulting in an H13. which is clear enough. However for the System Exit 1, I read that it was a timeout in a similar ticket but I am not sure exactly what is the difference. -

dynamically submit form when values change python
I am new to html and Django and trying to make my forms dynamically auto-submit whenever the user changes their inputs, essentially removing the 'Submit' button. My form has 3 inputs, (all floats) which will go through a 'some_function()' for a calculation. But to save the user time, I would like it dynamic. Hence, no 'submit'. HTML: <div class="container"> <h3>Calculator</h3> <form method="post" > {% csrf_token %} {{ form_c.as_p }} <button type="submit">Submit</button> # <- I would like to remove this </form> </div> My View is below if needed: def post(self, request): form_c = CalculatorForm(request.POST, prefix='form_c') try: if form_c.is_valid(): post = form_c.cleaned_data val1 = float(post.get('val1')) val2 = float(post.get('val2')) val3 = float(post.get('val3')) numbers = some_function(val1, val2, val3) except: pass args = { 'form_c': form_c, 'form_cols': numbers, } return render(request, self.template, args) -

Django programming error relation does not exist despite model being created
I renamed some of my models and tried to apply the migrations, but Django didn't detect that they were renamed. Therefore I deleted the content of manage.py, flushed the db and then ran manage.py makemigrations and manage.py migrate. Now I get the following error when I try to access one of my models via admin console or via any queries: ProgrammingError at /admin/restapi/appuser/ relation "restapi_appuser" does not exist LINE 1: SELECT COUNT(*) AS "__count" FROM "restapi_appuser" When I ran manage.py makemigrations the output included (truncated): Migrations for 'restapi': restapi/migrations/0001_initial.py - Create model AppUser I tried to run python3 manage.py sqlmigrate restapi 0001_initial with the following output (truncated): BEGIN; -- -- Create model AppUser -- CREATE TABLE "restapi_appuser" ("id" serial NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, "username" varchar(30) NOT NULL UNIQUE, "email" varchar(50) NOT NULL UNIQUE, "password" varchar(50) NOT NULL, "join_date" timestamp with time zone NOT NULL); It seems to me like the model should be in the database, but I am wondering why I am getting this error -

Call Django Class based view function with Django-Q's async_task
I can't call async_task on a Django class based view function. Considering following case, where I have a DRF view: class Greeting(generics.GenericAPIView) def greet(self, name): print("Hello: ") sleep(5) print(name) def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs): # enqueue the task async_task("how.to.call.self.greet", "world") return Response( {"message": "you should see this right away"}, status=status.HTTP_200_OK ) When trying to call async_task on a Django class based view function, following errors occur: async_task(self.greeting) returns an cannot pickle '_io.BufferedReader' object error async_task("self.greet") returns an No module named 'self' error I have no issues when putting the greet function outside de class. That is, however, a "solution" a would like to avoid.
