How to create relationships between django models
I have the two models, One is the User model and the other is a Contact model. The Contact model is as follows: class Contact(models.Model): pass user = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, default=1, null=True, on_delete=models.CASCADE, verbose_name=_('User'), related_name="user") contact = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, default=1, null=True, on_delete=models.CASCADE, verbose_name=_('Contact'), related_name="contact") created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=False, auto_now_add=True) updated_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True, auto_now_add=False) is_contact = models.BooleanField(default=False) Basically, what is does is create a contact for a user. Kind of a friend request and accept simple model. So the loggedIn user(request.user) could be either the contact.user or contact.contact. And the settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL is a CustomUser model: class CustomUser(AbstractUser): pass email = models.EmailField(unique=True) first_name = models.CharField(max_length=20, default="", blank=True) last_name = models.CharField(max_length=20, default="", blank=True) How can I create a relationship, where I can get a users contact by doing something like this: // get user contacts user=CustomUser.objects.get(pk=1) user.contacts.objects.all() -
Read data from cache in Django Admin Changelist View
I want to read data from cache in Django admin changelist view. But I notice that ChangeList is using QuerySet and read data from database. I was wondering if there is a way to custom Changlist view to make it read from cache? -

How to update two models using one serializer
I am facing one issue for updating models using django serializer.

[Django]How to display a message(correct or incorrect) after submitting the form, without refreshing the page?
I have a made a quiz page, which checks whether the answer of the user is correct or not using a "checkans" function. I want to return a "Correct" message if the answer is correct and an "Incorrect" message if the answer is not correct. Now I can "kind of" do it, but not exactly what I want. Now it returns the message after redirecting to a whole new page, with the Question Box and everything else totally disappeared, only with the message. I want the message to be shown on the same original question page, somewhere under the question box or within the question box, without redirecting to another page or refreshing the page, after submitting the answer. I don't know how to do it. Here is my view: class QuizView(generic.ListView): template_name = 'geniusdennis/quiz.html' queryset = Spanish.objects.all() def get_context_data(self, **kwargs): context = super().get_context_data(**kwargs) # grab the max id in the database max_id = Spanish.objects.order_by('-id')[0].id random_id = random.randint(1, max_id + 1) random_spanish_question = Spanish.objects.filter(id__gte=random_id)[0] context['random_spanish_question'] = random_spanish_question return context Here is my function for checking the answer: def checkans(request, spanish_id): random_spanish_question = get_object_or_404(Spanish, pk=spanish_id) query = request.GET.get('ans') coreng = random_spanish_question.english_set.get() if query == str(coreng): return render(request, 'geniusdennis/quiz.html',{ 'message': "Correct!", }) … -
Models not rendering in Django templates
I'm trying to pass an abstract model to an inclusion tag like via takes_context=True. The abstract model contains choices for a model field. I want to pass the abstract model instead of hardcoding the choices in the template to stay DRY. While debugging I realized that the template isn't receiving the model as expected. # urls.py ... urlpatterns = [ path('', IndexView.as_view(), name='index'), ] # views.py ... class IndexView(TemplateView): """Home Page""" template_name = 'index.html' def get_context_data(self, **kwargs): kwargs['model'] = MyModel return super(IndexView, self).get_context_data(**kwargs) ... # index.html {{model}} The above renders nothing in the browser. When I change the variable to a string, the context renders as expected. # views.py ... class IndexView(BaseSearchBarMixin, TemplateView): """Home Page""" template_name = 'index.html' def get_context_data(self, **kwargs): kwargs['model'] = 'testing 123' return super(IndexView, self).get_context_data(**kwargs) ... # index.html {{MyModel}} # browser testing 123 I have a feeling I'm doing something stupid but don't know what -
Directing url.py to correct HTML in Pythonanywhere Django
I have created my Django project locally, and used the following structure to store URLs: - main_project folder --app folder ---templates folder ----app folder -----results.html -----thanks.html Now, when I moved this project to PythonAnywhere, it's not picking any of the html files, or their URLs - and any URL is just directing to the main (index) page.

ModelAdmin related issues in Django
Below is my code within the admin.py file. class JobAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): prepopulated_fields = {'slug': ('title', 'organization',)} save_as = True Issue #1: I'm trying to prepopulate my slug using 2 different fields. The title field is getting populated correctly, whereas the organization field is a foreign key field, which is also getting populated but with an integer value. I would like to have this field populated with its original value which is the name field within the Organization model. To achieve this, I did try changing the organization field as follows: class JobAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): prepopulated_fields = {'slug': ('title', 'organization__name',)} But this is giving me an error. ERRORS: <class 'jobs.admin.JobAdmin'>: (admin.E030) The value of 'prepopulated_fields["slug"][0]' refers to 'organization__name', which is not an attribute of 'jobs.Job'. System check identified 1 issue (0 silenced). Issue #2: The save_as = True does not enable the “Save as new” button. I did refer to the Django Admin Document but I'm unable to comprehend what else needs to be done to enable this. I would be really thankful if anyone could help me in fixing these issues. Thanks for your time and help in advance! -
Django compare strings in template (for loop) and replace output
There is a forloop in a template file in django {% for tag in tags_list %} {{ tag }} {% endfor %} The output is all the contents in tags_list like the example below 1 2 3 4 5 I tried to replace number 3 with the string "Not available" like below {% for tag in tags_list %} {% if 3 == tag %} {% tag = "Not available" %} {{ tag }} {% else %} {{ tag }} {% endif %} {% endfor %} But it does not work. There are two problems: 1- {% if 3 == tag %} cannot compare. 2- {% tag == "Not available" %} cannot change the value of the variable. What is wrong with these codes? -
Django and aggregating grand-child records
I am new to Django but have been around RdB for a while. I am finally getting the hang of model-view-template. I am struggling a little on "aggregate" and "annotate" especially when my model has grand-child records and I want aggregate. I use Django 3 on Python 3.

How to access primary key of object from url to be used in a form?
I have a ListView which currently displays items from a model called 'Session'. Each session has a title in the ListView template which links to a CreateView (via its pk in the url) in which I want a form to be filled out for a user to make a Booking. The "Session" model is linked to an "IndividualSession" model via fk which has datetimes a session is available. I then have a "Booking" model which I want to use for the form in my CreateView which allows a user to make a booking for an IndividualSession. The issue I am having is I would like to have a ModelChoiceField that displays all the datetimes from the IndividualSession model but only for the Session that the user has clicked on. I currently have it setup so the choices in the form show all the datetimes in the IndividualSession model, I need it so only the datetimes related to session the user clicked on are shown. models.py class Session(models.Model): skill = models.CharField(max_length = 100) description = models.TextField() spaces = models.IntegerField() title = models.CharField(max_length = 100) company = models.CharField(max_length = 100) teacher = models.ForeignKey(User, models.SET_NULL, blank = True, null = True) def __str__(self): … -

Celery 4 + Django + Redis, missing django settings section in documentation?
I am trying to setup celery 4 in my Django project which I want Redis as broker. But I cannot find Django specific settings for broker in the Celery 4 documentation? Also the settings documentation for version 4 does not mention about CELERY_BROKER_URL anymore, I am sure the version 3 documentation does mention these settings. I searched on the web and found these settings: CELERY_BROKER_URL = 'redis://localhost:6379' CELERY_RESULT_BACKEND = 'redis://localhost:6379' CELERY_ACCEPT_CONTENT = ['application/json'] CELERY_RESULT_SERIALIZER = 'json' CELERY_TASK_SERIALIZER = 'json' But I am not sure if it's for version 3 or version 4.

Django Rest Framework. Create/Update multiple images and serialize

Is it possible to pass function returned value as form value from html to views?
I have JS function which returns array of items. I would like to pass it via form to views. At this moment this array is being passed as ajax request but it is not too much reliable. It works but sometimes sends the empty request. Below i put the code to show what I would like to obtain. The js function is kinda dummy because the code is quite long but the role of this function is just to return the array. Is the below logic correct to make it working ? <form method='post' action='/category/' class="form-inline"> {% csrf_token %} <li class="nav-item"> <button class="nav-link purple darken-4" type="submit" name="Array" value=test() style="background-color: grey;">Make order</button> </form> <script> function test(){ var array = [] return aray } </script> -
Add w3school autocomplete functionality to django form field
i want to add the w3school.com autocomplete functionality to one of my django form fields. At first I used a simple html form and it worked, but after implementing the django-way of working with forms and models, I can't get the autocomplete to work anymore. Here is the relevant part of my code: forms.py class PlantForm(forms.ModelForm): class Meta: model = Plant fields = ('plantname') widgets = { 'plantname': forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Trage hier den Namen des gelieferten Produkts ein.', 'class': 'autocomplete', 'autocomplete': 'off'}), models.py class Plant(models.Model): plantname = models.CharField(max_length=255) main.js const plants = ["Strauß", "Pepperoni", "Physalis", "Aster"]; window.onload = function () { autocomplete(document.getElementById("id_plantname"), plants); }; index.html <link rel="stylesheet" href= "{% static 'xyz/index.css' %}"> <script src="{% static 'xyz/main.js' %}"></script> <form autocomplete="off" method="post"> {% csrf_token %} {{ form|crispy }} <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Eintragen</button> </form> The css and js code is copy and paste from the w3schools tutorial. I guess it has something to do with the autocomplete class. Maybe it is assigned wrong in the forms.py? The id of the field in main.js should be right according to the django documentation and my tests. Hope you can help me, many thanks in advance. -
wsgi.py cannot be loaded as Python module

How can I run tests from a live database in Django?
I've got a DRF project that integrates with Salesforce using the django-salesforce package for reading a couple of objects. No writes go to Salesforce - the connection is entirely read-only. That said, I want to write tests for my viewsets and other functional endpoints, but I can't just link the salesforce database config to those test cases since the Django test runner automatically tries to create an isolated testing database. I can't just use SimpleTestCase as far as I know - if Django sees any database transactions, it kills the test. Is there some way to run tests as part of the normal testing flow that just read from the live salesforce database connection without creating a testing database? Do I need to implement a separate custom testing suite with another library in order to do that? -
Cleaning Up Multiple Pipenv Environments
I have a Django project that I set up via PyCharm. Since it was set up, I've moved it and renamed it. In the process, I think I created multiple pipenv environments. The reason I think so is that there are two entries under preferences/Project:xyz/Project Interpreter. One is listed as: xyz/venv/bin/python. The other is: ~/.local/share/virtualenvs/xyz-1IjVbwgz/bin/phton. I replaced the real project name with xyz. The one local to the project has problems installing and uninstalling mysqlclient. Pycharm says it adds or deletes it, but it remains displayed. I just executed "pipenv shell" on the command line and got this response: Launching subshell in virtual environment… . /Users/curt/.local/share/virtualenvs/xyz-1IjVbwgz/bin/activate ➜ merrittsecurity . /Users/curt/.local/share/virtualenvs/xyz-1IjVbwgz/bin/activate It would appear the one in .local/share is the correct one. So a few questions. Is this the normal location for pipenv? I'm on MacOS Mojave. Can I safely delete the one local to the project? There is an option in PyCharm to do that. The project runs fine. I just want to clean it up before using Docker with it.
