How to get IMSI number via link to my django webapp?
I have a web application accessible via a mobile browser. I need to detect a mobile device IMSI whenever a user clicks on the link in my app page accessible via web browser. The question is how to get unique device id/sim id via web browser for a specific mobile device. Focus of most of the ideas is, what is the kind of access a browser has over the phone and How can control it using python? Via webpage scripts we can store some data locally at client machine and retrieve it later. Is there a way to get a hook to webap app from the webpage and get the id details via scripts in my page? **Let me know if there is any other option without asking user to installing a local app or browser plugin on the device?**olm -

Obtain the date from datepicker and send it to my backend - Django
I'm using the datepicker from jquery-ui and I need to pass the date to my python backend (I'm working with Django). Obtain the date in my JS it's not a problem, user_date = $("#datepicker").datepicker('getDate'); Then I have a function that pass this result using ajax to my python backend. function getUserDate(user_date){ var csrftoken = $("[name=csrfmiddlewaretoken]").val(); $.ajax({ url: '/../../../getUserData/', type: 'POST', headers:{"X-CSRFToken": csrftoken}, data: { 'Date':user_date }, dataType: "json", cache: true, success: function(response) { var data = response.Data; } }); } But now, when I want to work with it in my python function, I don't know how to do it. I'm doing the following, try1 = request.POST['Date'] print('>>>>>>>>>>>> TRY1 >>>', type(try1)) But this is a string. My question is, how can I receive it as a dictionary, json, timestamp or something similar? That it's more manageable. Thank you very much! -

Django Rest Framework get params inside has_permission
I'm filtering real estates queryset dependent on user status and district (last one with GET param). In views.py I have this: class RealEstateView(APIView): serializer_class = RealEstateSerializer permission_classes = [RealEstatePermission] def get(self, request): district = self.request.query_params.get('pk') if district: serializer = RealEstateSerializer(RealEstate.objects.filter(owner_id=district), many=True) else: serializer = RealEstateSerializer(RealEstate.objects.all(), many=True) return Response(serializer.data) If user is superuser, he have access to all information. If user in not superuser, he can get access only to real estates from district which he is responsible. If user is responsible to district with id=1, but sends a get param with id=2, I need to raise an exception. But the problem is I don't know how to get access to get parameter in has_permission function. Doing this inside views get function seems not good idea. I already tried request.resolver_match.kwargs.get('id') and view.kwargs.get('id'), both of them are empty. in permissions.py: class RealEstatePermission(permissions.BasePermission): def has_permission(self, request, view): if request.user.is_authenticated: if request.user.is_staff: return True ## HERE I need something like request.user.district.id == kwargs('id') if request.user.role == 'district_municipality': return True Thank you for your help. -

How to set Environment Varibales EC2 Ubuntu for Django App
I am EC2 to host a django app and now want the Database settings not to hard coded in the settings file rather set them as environment variables. I changed the /etc/environment and added the variables as .... DB_HOST="HOST VALUE" DB_NAME="DB NAME" .... The app is not reading them and rather acts like the variables are not present.I thought it was only problem with host and its user name and password so i put them directly in settings and left the name of db in the environment variables only. But It wasn't reading the environment variables at all and error came up: No Database Selected I want to set the database variables in such a way that i can use them in settings .... 'HOST':os.environ.get('DB_HOST'), .... and i get the value mentioned in the environments for DB_HOST. -

variable DJANGO_CONFIGURATION is undefined - Django + virtual env + apache
I try to deploy my Django App in my apache server. Despite all the tutorials and threads (including stackoverflow) I read, I'm still not able to find the solution. Just for the context, I made a Django App locally using virtual env and Django 3+. My next step is to put it in the Apache server. So after pulling from my github account, I have set up a virtual environment on the server using virtualenv env Then I run the following command line to install the requirements pip install -r requirements.txt So far so good. Basically, after configurating the virtual host, I have the following error : **django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Configuration cannot be imported, environment variable DJANGO_CONFIGURATION is undefined.** I precise (it will be included below) that everything is installed correctly and the environment variable has been set.
