Django Allauth Custom User Model - Add Bootstrap Styled Checkbox To Signup Form That Submits To Database
What I want to do sounds simple - basically add a boostrap 4 styled checkbox to the allauth signup form that submits the user's response to that checkbox to the database along with their default allauth signup form data such as their username, email, etc. I cannot find a good tutorial anywhere online how to do this especially since it could have many different uses - such as asking a user on signup to accept the terms of service / privacy policy, sign up for marketing emails, or asking the user if they are above a certain age which is what I am trying to do. Here is what I tried so far (I added a checkbox to the allauth form in one of my forms.py located in one of my main app folders and also tried adding a model in that app for my project). But it is not submitting to the database and I am not sure how to style the checkbox using bootstrap. Courses forms.py: class CaptchaSignupForm(SignupForm, CaptchaRequirement): captcha = CaptchaField() is_age_compliant = forms.BooleanField(required=True,initial=False,label='Are you at least 13 years old?') field_order = ['username', 'email', 'password1', 'password2', 'is_age_compliant', 'captcha',] def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super(CaptchaSignupForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.fields['captcha'].widget.attrs['class'] = … -
Django : How to check if element in the queryset?
I'd liket to make is current_user exist in queryset, so i try: {% if obj.payer.name == current_user.username %} {{ obj.price|intcomma }} / {{obj.dutch_payer.all.count}}</p> <p>={{ obj.price|div_payer_me:obj.dutch_payer.all.count|intcomma }}</p> {% else %} {% if current_user.username in obj.dutch_payer.filter(name=current_user.username) %} {{ obj.price|intcomma }} / {{obj.dutch_payer.all.count|add1}}</p> <p>={{ obj.price|div_payer_notme:obj.dutch_payer.all.count|intcomma }}</p> {% else %} 0 {% endif %} {% endif %} but error occur : Could not parse the remainder: '(name=current_user.username)' from 'obj.dutch_payer.filter(name=current_user.username)' Tempfriend model: class Tempfriend(core_models.TimeStampedModel): name = models.CharField(max_length=30) belongs_to = models.ForeignKey( user_models.User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name="belongs_to") def __str__(self): return self.name moneylog model: class Moneylog(core_models.TimeStampedModel): moneybook = models.ForeignKey( moneybook_models.Moneybook, on_delete=models.CASCADE) pay_day = models.DateTimeField(default=NOW) payer = models.ForeignKey( tempfriend_models.Tempfriend, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name="payer") dutch_payer = models.ManyToManyField( tempfriend_models.Tempfriend, related_name="dutch_payer", blank=True) price = models.IntegerField() category = models.CharField(max_length=10) memo = models.TextField() objects = models.Manager() as you see, dutch_payer and current_user is different model. How can I check the is there current_user in dutch_payer? -

How to run multiple django services in on Docker container?
I have a Django project with a few microservices which heavily rely on django infrastructure itself and have to be started with: python manage.py sevicename1 python manage.py sevicename2 python manage.py sevicename3 python manage.py sevicename4 python manage.py sevicename...

Changing ModelChoiceField to ModelMultipleChoiceField
I have a CreateView CBV where I override get_form to set a field type: def get_form(self, form_class=None): form = super(EventMembershipCreate, self).get_form(form_class) form.fields['person'] = forms.ModelChoiceField( queryset=Person.objects.all(), to_field_name='email' ) return form This works fine when the field is ModelChoiceField, however I want to allow the users to create multiple objects which I will capture and get_or_create in def post():. To do this, I change the field type to a multiple choice field set as form.fields['person'] = forms.ModelMultipleChoiceField. However, even when submitting just one value on the form, I get the following error: ValueError at /lists/event/1/add/ Cannot assign "QuerySet Person: email@domain.com": "EventMembership.person" must be a "Person" instance. The email input definitely is a Person instance, so I am not sure what is throwing this error. Why does this get_form override work with ModelChoiceField and not ModelMultipleChoiceField? -
Unable to run Django server after executing custom python code
I reconstructed a Django boilerplate where I divided the settings as different files for production and development separately inside production.py and development.py respectively. Here, src was renamed from main. They both import everything from base.py. The folder structure of my project looks like this: -Django_boilerplate -src -core -migrations -management -commands -rename.py -main -settings -base.py -development.py -production.py -templates -db.sqlite3 -manage.py I wrote the rename.py so that whenever I work on a new project, I can just start the project by running this file to rename the project accordingly. My rename.py file looks like this: from django.core.management.base import BaseCommand import os class Command(BaseCommand): help = 'Renames a Django project' def add_arguments(self, parser): parser.add_argument('new', type=str, help='The new Django project name') def handle(self, *args, **kwargs): new_project_name = kwargs['new'][0] files_to_rename = ['main/settings/base.py', 'main/asgi.py', 'main/wsgi.py', 'manage.py'] folder_to_rename = 'main' for f in files_to_rename: with open(f, 'r') as file: filedata = file.read() filedata = filedata.replace(folder_to_rename, new_project_name) with open(f, 'w') as file: file.write(filedata) os.rename(folder_to_rename, new_project_name) self.stdout.write(self.style.SUCCESS(f'Project has been renamed to {new_project_name}')) Then I executed the rename.py file by running python rename.py ecommerce The first time, it executed and changed the settings as os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'ecommerce.settings.development') in manage.py and os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'ecommerce.settings') in the asgi.py & wsgi.py files but not in … -

How to get and update an Django object in one query?
To optimize a lot my database I would like to make as less as possible any query. I'm trying to get an object, increment the field "count_limit" and make an If statement after on the Customer instance. To achieve it I've made this query who worked well. Customer.objects.filter(user=user).update(count_limit=F('count_limit') + 1) So after this query, count_limit has been incremented by 1 as I wanted. When I'm trying to get the Customer instance as a result of this query, it returns "1". Is it possible to make both, update the instance and get it as a return object ? Thanks a lot -
overriding restauth password reset email issues
Good day, I am trying to override the password_reset_email of Django allauth. the issue is that it successfully overrides but I get the html code just sent to the user instead of the html representation.

Get the email of the current recipient, Django
I am building a blog app using django. It's a simple blog so it doesn't have a sign-in/sign-up function, but people can leave comments on posts using emails. And things go something like this: 1- Person leaves a comment on a post. 2- Once the comment is saved Person gets added to the subscription list of that post(only if they're not already on that list) so I could notify them when new comments are added to the post. 3- Send emails to people on the subscription list notifying them of the new comment, and with the email, there's a link to let people unsubscribe from receiving further emails. The problem I am facing right now is that I can't figure out how to fetch the recipient's email to pass it to the unsubscribe view instead of asking them to write it in an input field. def unsubscribe_from_post(request, slug, email): #I don't how to know the email of the recipient to pass it post = Post.objects.get(slug=slug) #to this function without asking them to write it down post.recipients.filter(recipient_email=email).delete() in models.py class Post(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=120) body = models.TextField() pub_date = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) categories = models.ManyToManyField('Category', related_name= 'posts') slug = models.SlugField(null=True) recipients = models.ManyToManyField('Recipient') … -
