Django: Get status of subprocess (running/finished) initiated from one view and display it to another view
I want to start a subprocess from a specific url (say eg: 'localhost:8000/start'). The status of subprocess (ie., subprocess is running or finished) should be showed on another url (say eg: 'localhost:8000/status'). I already started the subprocess. But I am struggling to display the status in other url. Is there any way to achieve this? -
Redirect from bootstrap tab to another Django
I have two tabs in a template.In one tab I can create attendance(tab1) in another tab I can view attendance(tab2) that was created previously.Now when I create a attendance successfully I want to check if the attendance is valid and if valid I want to redirect from tab 1 to tab 2. How can I achieve this in Django? Here's my template and view snippet https://gist.github.com/quantum2020/c55adeb3b8c2ee0ac2d99ff46f5699e8 https://gist.github.com/quantum2020/2cb28233608c3a219ff97762e1fd62be -
Django admin exclude in proxy model
Currently i have this user proxy model: class UserProxy(User): class Meta: verbose_name = 'Staff' verbose_name_plural = 'Staffs' proxy = True And on the admin side i have the following admin like so: class StaffAdmin(UserAdmin): def get_queryset(self, request): qs = super(StaffAdmin, self).get_queryset(request) return qs.filter(is_staff=True) exclude = ('first_name', 'last_name',) def save_model(self, request, obj, form, change): if request.user.is_superuser: obj.is_staff = True obj.save() admin.site.register(UserProxy, StaffAdmin) When i go to any form of the proxy model on admin it return the following error: "Key 'first_name' not found in 'UserProxyForm'. Choices are: date_joined, email, groups, is_active, is_staff, is_superuser, last_login, password, user_permissions, username." I figured that was weird and i tried to only exclude is_staff and now it return: "Key 'is_staff' not found in 'UserProxyForm'. Choices are: date_joined, email, first_name, groups, is_active, is_superuser, last_login, last_name, password, user_permissions, username." Why is this happening ? isn't the proxy model should have all the fields from base model ? -
How to integrate my django app with django cms properly?

Cómo establecer un valor por defecto a un objeto tipo DateFromToRangeFilter en django [closed]
Estoy usando un filtro de fechas en django 1.11.11, es de un proyecto de hace dos años, el filtrado se realiza correctamente, sin embargo el filtro no muestra los valores que se enviaron desde el front-end, en ves de eso muestra los "inputs" correspondientes al rango de fechas vacíos. Quiero poder asignar valores por defecto desde el backend si es posible en la views.py pero hasta ahora no he podido. Más o menos tengo lo siguiente: filters.py class PolicyNewActivesFilter(django_filters.FilterSet): ini_between = django_filters.DateFromToRangeFilter(name='start_date', label='Fecha de inicio (rango)') class Meta: model = Policy fields = ['ini_between',] views.py def policy_new_active_view(request) data = request.GET.copy() pol_filter = PolicyNewActivesFilter(data) pol_filter.form.fields["ini_between"].widget.widgets[0].value = ["01/01/2020", "02/02/2020"] ... return render(request, 'operation/policy_list.html', {'table': table, 'policy_filter': pol_filter}) Y en el template puedo acceder a los valores del filtro así: policy_list.html {{policy_filter.form.ini_between.value}} Y lo que muestra es: [None, None] Quiero saber si hay alguna forma de hacer esto(aunque lo que yo pongo aquí no me funcionó): pol_filter.form.fields["ini_between"].widget.widgets[0].value = ["01/01/2020", "02/02/2020"] -
