How do I pass a js var to a django view
It's my first time working with JS, and I don't know how to pass a selected row in a table to my django's view file. This is my HTML and my JS: var tabela = document.getElementById("minhaTabela"); var linhas = tabela.getElementsByTagName("tr"); for(var i = 0; i < linhas.length; i++){ var linha = linhas[i]; linha.addEventListener("click", function(){ selLinha(this, true); }); } function selLinha(linha, multiplos){ if(!multiplos){ var linhas = linha.parentElement.getElementsByTagName("tr"); for(var i = 0; i < linhas.length; i++){ var linha_ = linhas[i]; linha_.classList.remove("selecionado"); } } linha.classList.toggle("selecionado"); } var btnVisualizar = document.getElementById("visualizarDados"); btnVisualizar.addEventListener("click", function(){ var selecionados = tabela.getElementsByClassName("selecionado"); //Verificar se eestá selecionado if(selecionados.length < 1){ alert("Selecione pelo menos uma linha"); return false; } var dados = ""; for(var i = 0; i < selecionados.length; i++){ var selecionado = selecionados[i]; selecionado = selecionado.getElementsByTagName("td"); dados += "CNPJ: " + selecionado[0].innerHTML + " - RAZÃO SOCIAL: " + selecionado[1].innerHTML + " - NOME FANTASIA: " + selecionado[2].innerHTML + "\n"; } alert(dados); }); {% load static %} <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <title>Title</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static 'css/banco.css' %}"> </head> <body> <button id="visualizarDados">Visualizar Dados</button> <table border="1" class="dataframe" id="minhaTabela"> <thead> <tr style="text-align: right;"> <th></th> <th>CNPJ</th> <th>RazaoSocial</th> <th>NomeFantasia</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <th>0</th> <td>00000000000</td> <td>xxxxxxxxxxxxx S/A</td> <td>xxxxxxxxxxx</td> </tr> <tr> … -
how to access a django webapp REST API endpoint from unix without requiring the user to enter credentials
i have a django webapp running at work. we have some REST APIs available which get accessed by our flow in unix. currently to avoid asking the users to enter their credentials, we store a service account name and credentials in a "secret" location on disk. my python code reads credentials from there to login and access the REST API running on our django app. i am sure there is a better way to do this. is there a way to leverage that the user is logged into unix somehow to get authentication to work with the REST API? i heard kerberos might be useful here? thanks for the help! -

I must install django for every single project i make?
i am new to Python programming language and Django. I am learning about web development with Django, however, each time I create a new project in PyCharm, it doesn´t recognize django module, so i have to install it again. Is this normal? Because i´ve installed django like 5 times. It doesn´t seem correct to me, there must be a way to install Django once and for all and not have the necessity of using 'pip install django' for each new project I create, I am sure there must be a way but I totally ignore it, I think I have to add django to path but I really don´t know how (just guessing). I will be thankful if anyone can help me :) -
How to make a grid scroll horizontally
I have a grid and I wish I could make it scroll horizontally because currently it is scrolling vertically and I need to have an slider there and firstable to have an slider, it needs to be horizontally scrollable. I think that to make this grid horizontally scrollable the mates-frid-container has to be altered but I dont know how and I have already tried a lot of things overflow and translate, maybe I was doing it wrong. This grid has dynamic data inside so that makes it a bit more complex to make I think. html <div class="mates-grid-content"> <div class="mates-header-content"> </div> <div class="mates-grid-1-1-content"> <div class="mates-grid-2-content"> <button type="button" id="prev-button">prev</button> </div> <div class="mates-grid-1-content"> <div class="mates-item-content"> <img class="mate-pic" src="{{ user.profile.profile_pic.url }}" > </div> <div class="mates-item-content"> <a href="{% url 'profile' username=content.user.username %}" style="float: left">{{ content.user }}</a> </div> <div class="mates-item-content"> <div class="responses"> <div class="response-item-img"> <img class="mates-image" src="{{ content.req_image.url }}" width="400px"> </div> <div class="response-item-bio"> <p>{{ content.req_bio }}</p> </div> <div class="response-item-button"> <button type="submit">Submit</button> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="mates-grid-3-content"> <button type="button" id="next-button">next</button> </div> </div> <div class="mates-grid-2-2-content"> </div> </div> css .mates-grid-content { width: 100%; display: grid; grid-template-columns: 1fr; grid-template-rows: 8% 84% 8%; grid-gap: .5rem; } .mates-header-content { display: flex; text-align: center; justify-content: center; align-items: center; grid-column: 1; grid-row: … -
Django navbar not using Bootstrap with no other CSS
I'm creating my navbar right now with Bootstrap and it's not working. I emptied the css file that used to have some navbar-related css and it's not picking anything up. I've tried multiple versions of this and made sure it wasn't a browser issue. Does Django and Bootstrap not work well together without configuration? Both the DjangoGirls and Mozilla tutorials used Bootstrap in the same way so I thought it would be fine. navbar.html <nav class="navbar navbar-expand-sm"> <div class="mx-auto d-sm-flex d-block flex-sm-nowrap"> <div class="collapse navbar-collapse text-center" id="navbarsExample11"> <ul class="navbar-nav"> <li class="nav-item"> <a class="nav-link" href="{% url 'index' %}">Home</a> </li> <li class="nav-item"> <a class="nav-link" href="{% url 'bakes' %}">Baking List</a> </li> <li class="nav-item"> <a class="nav-link" href="{% url 'about' %}">About</a> </li> </ul> </div> </div> </nav> base.html <!DOCTYPE html> {% load static %} <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <title>Post List</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.2.0/css/bootstrap.min.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.2.0/css/bootstrap-theme.min.css"> <link href="//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lobster&subset=latin,latin-ext" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static 'css/food_blog.css' %}"> </head> <body> {% include 'food_blog/navbar.html' %} <div class="content container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-8"> {% block content %} {% endblock %} </div> </div> </div> {% block pagination %} {% if is_paginated %} <div class="pagination"> <span class="page-links"> {% if page_obj.has_previous %} <a href="{{ request.path }}?page={{ page_obj.previous_page_number }}">previous</a> {% endif %} <span … -
Indexing or filtering Wagtail blog posts by MULTIPLE blog tags
I created a basic Wagtail blog page using Wagtail's tutorial. However, now I want to create a filter on the blog page that allows me to index blog pages by MULTIPLE blog tags.

Python Django: Filtering data based on custom user model with Foreign Key

Does Django caches payload deserialization
Using Django==2.2.13, djangorestframework==3.8.1 I am looking into doing some work in a middleware on incoming requests. A part of the work is to deserialize the payload and check if it has some content (key/value). The Django view is deserializing the payload downstream. I have a few questions: Will Django cache my payload deserialization, or will it do it again in the view regardless? If Django does not cache the deserialized payload, is there any way to enable it to do so? Does the deserialization process take longer when done in the view, vs the middleware? Thank you! -
How to query with the ID of the parent instance using **kwargs?
I am currently implementing soft deletion for all models in my database. The idea is that when an instance gets deleted, it actually gets archived with all of its children. If the user tries to create an instance that is identical to the archived one, the archived one gets undeleted along with all of its children instead of creating a new instance. To do this, I am using django-safedelete where I am making a BaseModel with an overwritten save() method that looks something like this: def save(self, *args, **kwargs): # get the foreign key id foreign_key_id = self.foreign_field.id # execute a query by that id and some other params '''I don't know how to do this''' As to how to do it, I thought I could construct a kwargs dictionary that consists of pairs of <field>:value where <field> = self._meta.get_field(some_field.name) and value = getattr(self, some_field.name). So how do I add the foreign_key_id to kwargs? I know there is this syntax: Model.objects.filter(foreign_field__id=value) ...but I don't know how to replicate that to put into kwargs the way I'm doing it. Likewise, is there a better way to do this in general? I don't want to hard-code too many things, which is why … -

How to get liveserver to render django templates?
I've been messing around with a tutorial site, and I found that my VS Code LiveServer plugin doesn't work properly when I try to open Django templates. The CSS I applied is missing (although it renders correctly in my local development sever), and the template language code is actually printed to the screen rather than executed (see image below). My liveserver plugin appears to be working with html files outside of Django. (1) Right now I'm right clicking and selecting "Open with Liveserver." Is this wrong for Django? The liveserver docs recommend trying to "visit the Actual Server Address: http://localhost/[workspace], not the VS Code extension's Live Server Address: http://127.0.0.1:5500/". I tried including the file path in place of [workspace], but no luck. What do I do here? (2) I saw in another thread where someone recommended their own solution, here. I'm not sure where I'm supposed to run the './manage.py livereload' command, but it's not working in command prompt. What is the difference between './manage.py' and 'py manage.py'? And will this solution be any better than the VS Code plugin? -
Best practices for dealing with nested dicts?
I am loading data from a CSV to a db Model. I use an intermediate layer for data validation. Here's a basic example: {'Team': {'Account': {'InvoiceID' : invID, 'Amount': aLotOfMoney} }} for team in teams.: for account in teams[team]: for invoice in teams[team][account]: acc = Account(ID = teams[team][account][invoiceID], amount=teams[team][account][amount]) acc.save() This works fine and all but it's far from elegant and seems rather inefficient. Is there a way to return the nested Dict instead of the key? -
DJANGO - redirect() not redirecting - appends the current path name to the domain

If I print(sender) I get <class 'users.models.Manager_employees'>. I have tried referenced_employee = sender.employee_id, but this gives me <django.db.models.fields.related_descriptors.ForeignKeyDeferredAttribute object at 0x03616310>. print(sender['employee_id']) gives me 'ModelBase' object is not subscriptable. Thank you.
