Django Rest Framework - Filter by custom field
I have Serializer which defines a custom column, in the serializers.py which I am trying to filter a query on. The itemsoutstanding column example below, I am trying to filter it from my view but it returns "is not defined" class OverView(serializers.ModelSerializer): itemsoutstanding = serializers.SerializerMethodField() class Meta: model = Order fields = ['id','total_price', 'created_at','itemsoutstanding'] def get_itemsoutstanding(self, obj): count= Items.objects.filter(order=obj.id).count() return count In my view I am trying to filter on the serializer column, but it says it's not defined queryset = Order.objects.all() serializer_class = OverView queryset = Order.objects.filter(shop=shop) queryset = queryset.filter(itemsoutstanding> 0) Is there any way to filter based on the serializer columns? -

Django 3.0 tutorial - mysite/URL not working
I have completed all seven steps of the Writing your first Django app tutorial for 3.0. Everything works great, except the base site URL for 'mysite' at http://127.0.0.1:8000/. At the beginning of the tutorial, it worked, but it stopped working as I progressed/at the end. http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/ works fine. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Based on how the tutorial is structured, i.e. "add this and that and this and that," etc., that I overwrote something. Here is the error I'm receiving in my browser: Page not found (404) Request Method: GET Request URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000/ Using the URLconf defined in mysite.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order: polls/ admin/ The empty path didn't match any of these.

Pulling Values From List Python
I am working in Django and I am saving the below variable as a list: manifestData = form.cleaned_data so if I print this it returns: [{'ProductCode': <Product: APPLES-1>, 'UnitQty': u'11', 'Price': u'11.00', 'Amount': u'121', 'DescriptionOfGoods': u'Washington Extra Fancy', 'Type': u'Cases', u'id': None, u'DELETE': False}, {'ProductCode': <Product: ORANGES-1>, 'UnitQty': u'1', 'Price': u'12.00', 'Amount': u'12', 'DescriptionOfGoods': u'SUNKIST ORANGES', 'Type': u'Cases', u'id': None, u'DELETE': False}] I need to pull the ProductCode values out of this and save them to variables. Really I need the values APPLES-1 and ORANGES-1 pulled from the list. What would my best approach be for this? Thanks! -

Django Save Object "Receipts"
I'm building a Django web application, part of it involves an online ordering system for food. I want to make a "receipt" object to save transactions. My concern, however, is this - let's say I have an object Receipt that relates to Orders which relate to Items, if the items get edited or change over time, it will make the receipts look different down the line. Is there a way to save these at the moment of a transaction? I am implementing a "soft deletion" to my models to avoid deletion issues however I don't think this would protect against edits. -

Django: How to optimize and reduce repetitive code the django way?
I am new to development and to Django, still learning OOP but I wanted to learn better with some examples from the code that I created. I have created a function in my view file. The function is getting very long and probably I will have to make it longer. I think the if statement could be written as a function but not sure where to start. What would be a way to reduce the code making it easier to maintain.

Beginner questions about Wagtail (in comparison with Django)
I'm a beginner learning Wagtail, and a lot of things are un-clear to me, and unfortunately not found sufficient explanation in Wagtail documentation. Please help and give me some answers, and I feel I'm on the edge of giving up on Wagtail and switching back to Django. Here are a few noob questions I have, How to handle POST request? I've watched a few tutorials at LearnWagtail.com, it seems in Wagtail, development is all about creating models, no need to set urls.py or views.py. And we could create Routable pages to respond to custom url-patterns. Question: but how to respond to POST request if without defining a view? I don't see any example of Routable page handling POST request. Is the home app the only entry to a Wagtail website? From what I see, home app is a default one created by Wagtail when a project is created. And the home.HomePage is the default page when I open the website on 127.0.0.1:8000. Question: so I cannot remove this home app? How to set urls.py or should we set them? For example, a typicall urls.py settings are as follows. And my understanding is the wagtail_urls will point to home.HomePage by default. … -

Invalid HOST Header from router IP
I keep getting an Invalid HOST Header error which I am trying to find the cause of. It reads as such: Report at /GponForm/diag_Form Invalid HTTP_HOST header: '192.168.0.1:443'. You may need to add '192.168.0.1' to ALLOWED_HOSTS I do not know what /GponForm/diag_Form is but from the looks of it, it may be a vulnerability attacked by malware. I also am wondering why the IP is from a router 192.168.0.1 as well as why it is coming through SLL :443 Should I consider putting a HoneyPot and blocking this IP address? Before I do, why does the IP look like a local router? The full Request URL in the report looks like this: Request URL: https://192.168.0.1:443/GponForm/diag_Form?style/ I am getting this error at least ~10x/day now so I would like to stop it. -

Combining django templates with content editable for non-technical users
We use django to generate HTML pages using templates which include javascript. Our website only consists out of a limited number of pages (creating new pages isn't a common use case) and we have people editing the content without python (and html) knowledge. Is there a way to have a simple user interface where non-technical editors can (in the best case) use a WYSIWYG editor to change the content (mainly text) of a template and a developer can build the page with html, css and javascript around it? The problem we see with full CMS system like Wagtail and Django-CMS is that they don't give us the same flexibility to build the pages and don't offer the needed functionality to make our platform configurable (When setting up the system, a user can configure their specific instance of the system as many use cases have the same structure and only need specific configurations). -
form_invalid method not displaying fields in error
I have a CBV CreateView and a django form that behaves correctly when you entered data that is valid. However, when the form has fields in error (duplicate phone number or more than one primary contact phone), then is re-displayed by form_invalid method, but the fields that were previously populated are now displayed blank. The customUser field in the Phone model which is the foreign key to the user CustomUser(AbstractUser) model appears to be blank when I print the request.post data. This is my model: class Phone(models.Model): COUNTRIES = ( (55, _('Brazil')), (1, _('United States of America')), ) PHONETYPES = ( ('1', _('Mobile')), ('2', _('Home')), ('3', _('Work')), ('4', _('Other')), ) status = models.CharField(_("Record Status"), max_length=1, default='A') status_dt = models.DateTimeField(_("Status Date"), default=timezone.now) customUser = models.ForeignKey(CustomUser, verbose_name=_("User"), on_delete=models.CASCADE) phone_name = models.CharField(_("Phone name"), max_length=20, default="PH"+str(random.randint(1,99999))) country = models.IntegerField(_("Country Dialing Code"), choices=COUNTRIES) phone_number = models.CharField(_("Phone Number"), max_length=11) phone_type = models.CharField(_("Phone Type"), max_length=1, default="4", choices=PHONETYPES) verified = models.BooleanField(verbose_name=_('verified'), default=False) primary = models.BooleanField(verbose_name=_('primary'), default=False) at_user = models.CharField(_("Audit Trail (user)"), max_length=255, blank=True) at_ip = models.GenericIPAddressField(_("Audit Trail (IP)"), protocol='both', blank=True, null=True) at_dttm = models.DateTimeField(_("Audit Trail (Date-Time)"), default=timezone.now) at_action = models.CharField(_("Audit Trail (Function performed)"), max_length=255, blank=True) UniqueConstraint(fields=['customUser', 'country', 'phone_number'], name='user_unique_phone_number') class Meta: verbose_name = _("Phone Number") verbose_name_plural = _("Phone …
