django sites and showing id in admin editor
I'm using the Site module in django. In the admin interface, I see domain name and display name. I'd really like to see the primary key id, as well, however, since I specify the sites by SITE_ID. Now I could do this by editing ./venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/contrib/sites/admin.py, but that's poor form in so many ways. I'd just add "id", thus: class SiteAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): list_display = ('id', 'domain', 'name') search_fields = ('id', 'domain', 'name') I did the following in one of my models.py files, which helps in the shell but doesn't show up in admin: def site_name(self): return '{domain} ({id})'.format( domain=self.domain, id=self.id) Site.__str__ = site_name Any suggestion how to do this (or pointer on what I'm doing wrong that I think I want it)? -
Inject variables into Model Form CharField
Pretty quick question - Is it possible to inject variables into CharFields "initial" fields in Model forms on Django? I would like to pass the current year and some link the customer fills out in a previous form field (link) and have it populate the "message." subject = forms.CharField( widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': ('Subject')}), initial="Subject", required=False) link = forms.CharField() message = forms.CharField(widget=forms.Textarea, initial="Dear User, today is **datetime.now()** and here is **link**", required=False) -

Django rest framework incorrect nested serialization
I started a new django rest framework project and bumped into an annoying problem. The nested serialization doesn't work as expected. Instead of serializing relationship models and returning serialized object it returns an extra "relationship" field in addition to defaul "attributes" json field. Here is my python 3.6 code: models.py from django.db import models from django.contrib.auth.models import User class Profile(models.Model): user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, verbose_name='User', null=True, blank=True) first_name = models.CharField('First name', max_length=50) last_name = models.CharField('Last name', max_length=50) phone_number = models.CharField('Phone number', max_length=15) activated = models.DateTimeField('Activated') def __str__(self): return f'<Profile {self.first_name.title()} {self.last_name.title()}>' serializers.py from rest_framework import serializers from .models import Profile from django.contrib.auth.models import User class ProfileSerializer(serializers.HyperlinkedModelSerializer): class Meta: model = Profile fields = ('id', 'first_name', 'last_name', 'phone_number') class UserSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): profile = ProfileSerializer() class Meta: model = User fields = ('id', 'email', 'username', 'profile') views.py from rest_framework.views import APIView from rest_framework.response import Response from django.contrib.auth.models import User from .serializers import UserSerializer from .models import Profile class UserViews(APIView): def get(self, request, format=None): users = User.objects.all() serializer = UserSerializer(users, many=True) return Response(serializer.data) The answer I expect to get: { "data": [ { "type": "UserViews", "id": "1", "attributes": { "email": "", "username": "admin", "profile": { "id": 1, "first_name": "name1", "last_name": "name2", "phone_number": "+79999999999", } … -

Storing a image in Django file-system (without using a database)

And while using request.FILES I'm getting, <MultiValueDict: {}> How should I go about this? Thanks, in advance. -

How to implement Django Session Wizard with multiple templates

MultipleObjectsReturned at /checkout/ get() returned more than one Order -- it returned 2
Hi I'm trying to develop an e-commerce website using Django. I have two models and views on separate folders, one is an order model and view, another is the checkout model and view. The order view creates a new order everytime an item is added to the cart. And the checkout view creates a new billing address. I want to associate the billing address that is created to the order when the checkout form is submitted. But for some reason, it's not happening. It throws an error: MultipleObjectsReturned at /checkout/ get() returned more than one Order -- it returned 2! What is the problem? My orders.models.py: from django.db import models from shopping_cart.models import Cart from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model from accounts2.models import BillingAddress STATUS_CHOICES = ( ("Started", "Started"), ("Abandoned", "Abandoned"), ("Finished", "Finished"), ) User = get_user_model() class Order(models.Model): user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, blank=True, null=True) order_id = models.CharField(max_length=120, default='ABC', unique=True) cart = models.ForeignKey(Cart, on_delete=models.CASCADE) status = models.CharField(max_length=120, choices=STATUS_CHOICES, default="Started") sub_total = models.DecimalField(default=10.99, max_digits=1000, decimal_places=2) tax_total = models.DecimalField(default=0.00, max_digits=1000, decimal_places=2) final_total = models.DecimalField(default=10.99, max_digits=1000, decimal_places=2) timestamp = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True, auto_now=False) billing_address = models.ForeignKey(BillingAddress, on_delete=models.SET_NULL, blank= True, null=True) My orders.views.py: @login_required def order(request): try: the_id = request.session['cart_id'] cart = Cart.objects.get(id=the_id) except: the_id = None return … -
Best approach to multiple user types in django
I have the need for multiple user types in my application, each with different type specific information, and potentially different FK associations to other entities. In my research on the topic I've seen the recommended approach in the documentation is to create a OneToOne related user profile model to the user here. I've also seen this approach suggested in this example and this question. Let's say for the sake of an example: class User(AbstractUser): pass class Student(models.Model): user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, primary_key=True) student_number = models.CharField() class Teacher(models.Model): user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, primary_key=True) department = models.ForeignKey(Department) class Course(models.Model): convenor = models.ForeignKey(Teacher) students = models.ManyToManyField(Student) Contrary to the above examples, I've found only one example recommending the use of subclassing of the User model, here. For the above context this would instead be class User(AbstractUser): pass class Student(User): student_number = models.CharField() class Teacher(User): department = models.ForeignKey(Department) This seems to me to be the much more intuitive and less verbose implementation of the same thing. Is a subclass of a model not just a OneToOne association to the parent model? However in the above stack overflow selected answer this approach is specifically advised against, saying it will lead to problems later. How? I … -
Is it a problem to have two or more exactly same class name at different files?
For my django application, I created class based views and each of them is defined at different file: # foo.py from django.views import View ... class MyView(View): def get(...): foo() # bar.py from django.views import View ... class MyView(View): def get(...): bar() Actually, it is not necessary to have same class names because the views (the web pages) does not have the same content. They have different content created by foo() and bar(). What I want to ask is that is having the same class names at different files is contrary to Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) concepts? Any explanation is appreciated. -

Do I really need to use {% load static %} in Django Templates?
I am using Django 3, the latest version. I have defined the static files directories properly as required. Currently to display an image, both the following source codes work fine. Code 1: <img src="static/img/logo.png"></img> Code 2: {% load static %} <img src="{% static 'img/logo.png' %}"> </img> Since both the code snippets are working and running fine without any problems, I am wondering why not to simply use the way of Code 1 above and refrain from the extra lines of Code 2. Which one would be beneficial and why? Please guide. -
django.urls.exceptions.NoReverseMatch on second level context
I believe my situation is different to other questions and I've tried multiple other answers to no avail. I have a config with a uuid pk. On my list of configs, one can add, edit, delete a config, if you click a config name, it doesn't take you into a detail of the config itself but rather a view of data in other models that references the config as a foreign key (i.e. data "in" that configuration). Within that configuration, one can CRUD each model. I have just started adding the "Add" buttons but get a NoReverseMatch exception. I think this is something to do with my URLs but can't work it out. I know I need to somehow pass the pk from the config to the next view. In addition, when creating an entry for each model, the pk from the config needs to automatically save as a foreign key of the new item (in the background). URLS.PY # My configuration list, and CRUD (this works) path('configurations/', ConfigurationsListView.as_view(), name='configurations'), path('configurations/create/', views.ConfigurationCreate.as_view(), name='configuration_create'), path('configurations/<uuid:pk>/update/', views.ConfigurationUpdate.as_view(), name='configuration_update'), path('configurations/<uuid:pk>/delete/', views.ConfigurationDelete.as_view(), name='configuration_delete'), # My configuration detail view (actually a view of data with the config as a foreign key) path('configurations/configuration/<config_id>', views.ConfigurationDetailView.as_view(), name='configuration_detail'), # … -
