Django, deployment on Heroku. SMTPSenderRefused at /password_reset/ when i try to send an email
I'm deploying the Django app on Heroku. App works fine, but when I try to reset a forgotten password via sending an email - I encounter this error: SMTPSenderRefused at /password_reset/ (530, b'5.7.0 Authentication Required. Learn more at\n5.7.0 https://support.google.com/mail/?p=WantAuthError h13sm1336757qti.32 - gsmtp', 'None') The only way to fix this error is to replace this: EMAIL_HOST_USER = os.environ.get('EMAIL_USER') EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = os.environ.get('EMAIL_PASS') with this: EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'fake_email' EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'myfakepassword123' and switch on permission to use less secure apps in Gmail settings. BUT THIS IS NOT HOW I WOULD LIKE TO SOLVE THIS 1) i show my host_user and host_password with this approach, which i don't want. 2) each user needs to go here "Gmail -> Settings -> Allow less secure apps", and i don't want that either, because it's not wery user friendly. Moreover, why should the user allow access to unsecure applications? Maybe you have encountered this problem and know how to solve it in a different way? Thanks! -
Django response code 200 React accept error code
I have a web app with React frontend and Django rest API backend. when I enter the correct username and password to log in I get the message that should appear when the username or password is wrong. The React code: fetch('/token-auth/', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', }, body: JSON.stringify({username: this.state.username, password: this.state.password}) }) .then(res => res.json()) .then(json => { if (json.ok) { localStorage.setItem('token', json.token); this.props.notify_login(this.state.username) } else { this.setState({been_failed: true}) } }); So as you can understand the code enters the else block. But the Django server prints the following message saying that the response code is 200. "POST /token-auth/ HTTP/1.1" 200 286 Does anyone know what can cause such a thing? -

How do I render objects in a queryset to different tags in template in Django?
So I'm trying to make a simple scheduler with Django, but then got stuck. I have this following code. ... <td class="myClass" data-date="2020-05-15"> <div class="myContent">today's schedule comes here</div> </td> <td class="myClass" data-date="2020-05-16"> <div class="myContent">today's schedule comes here</div> </td> ... I have a separate model where each object has two fields-date(datefield) and schedule(CharField). Let's assume the user can only put one schedule per day. So for example if the data is [{"date":"2020-05-15", "schedule":"Read books"}, {"date":"2020-05-16", "schedule":"Do laundry"}], how do I assign each schedule to each date? I think I was able to get the objects using query in views.py below, but got stuck on rendering each data(schedule) to each corresponding date in template. from .models import NewEvent def SchedulePage(request): eachDay = NewEvent.objects.all() return render(request, 'schedule.html', {'eachDay':eachDay}) I believe I'll have to use JQuery here but have no idea on how to do it. I very much appreciate your help. :) -

What is the url.py file that opens home using wagtail?
I'm starting using Wagtail + Django. Generally, in Django you set the urls path in a urls.py file. However, I cannot find the url.py that says to my app, when users visits main domain (local http://127.0.0.1:8000/) show home_page.html view. I'm following the get_started tutorial. And used this command to generate the basic apps: wagtail start elim This generated: a) elim, b) home, c) search apps. Only elim app contains a urls.py, but it doesn't set a path for home: from django.conf import settings from django.conf.urls import include, url from django.contrib import admin from wagtail.admin import urls as wagtailadmin_urls from wagtail.core import urls as wagtail_urls from wagtail.documents import urls as wagtaildocs_urls from search import views as search_views urlpatterns = [ url(r'^django-admin/', admin.site.urls), url(r'^admin/', include(wagtailadmin_urls)), url(r'^documents/', include(wagtaildocs_urls)), url(r'^search/$', search_views.search, name='search'), ] This is my project structure: -
