How use python-docx to stream a file from template
Ok so right now I have a function in my django app that creates a word document like so: def form_view(request): if request.method == 'POST': #do a bunch of things context = { 'model_1' : model_1, } in_template = "Forms/mytemplate.docx" doc = DocxTemplate(in_template) doc.render(context) out_filename = "outfile.docx" http_word_response = HttpResponse(content_type='application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document') http_word_response['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment; filename=%s' % out_filename doc.save(http_word_response) return http_word_response else: return render( request, 'mysite/form.html', context) So right now, the file is served up as the http_word_response variable and it works great I want to change this so that the file is actually created and saved into S3, but I'd like to not save the file locally first and just use the stream function of the python-docx package: https://python-docx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/documents.html#opening-a-file-like-document Here's the sample it gives: with open('foobar.docx', 'rb') as f: source_stream = StringIO(f.read()) document = Document(source_stream) source_stream.close() ... target_stream = StringIO() document.save(target_stream) I'm not sure how to translate that sample into reading in my template file and outputting a file/object I can then send to S3 and do something with. My best guess would start like this: with open(in_template, 'rb') as f: source_stream = StringIO(f.read()) doc = DocxTemplate(source_stream) source_stream.close() target_stream = StringIO() document.save(target_stream) But then I get confused on where my doc.render(context) ... -
Why does the PATCH of the HTTP method run the model save() method?
I use serializers.ModelSerializer and viewsets.ModelViewSet of Django REST Framework in my REST API. While I was testing, I found out that the PATCH of HTTP method was running model save(). I know PATCH is for updating data, Why DRF use save() instead of update()? -

Silencing exceptions in `makemigrations` can be silenced by in `check`, Django. 2.0
Using a version of django-proxy-overrides, I'm overriding a field in a Proxy model that appears a the base model. I'm using Django 2.0 This causes Django's system-check framework to complain, but in my settings file I have set: SILENCED_SYSTEM_CHECKS = ["fields.E305", "fields.E304", "models.E006", "models.E017"] so python manage.py runserver works fine (and the overriding works beautifully). However, when I run python manage.py makemigrations, Django raises an exception complaining about the clash in names: django.core.exceptions.FieldError: Local field 'person' in class 'ProxyBillSponsorship' clashes with field of the same name from base class 'BillSponsorship'. Is there anyway around this? I have tried setting class Meta: managed=False on the the proxied models in the hope that makemigrations would ignore these models, but no luck. -

Single javascript controller for a audio files generated through loop in Django
I am trying to find a way to have a single javascript controller so i could play the audio files that were shown on the list using a loop in my django app : <script type="text/javascript"> {% for m_word in movie_vocab %} ## here i could generate the ids for each instance of movie_vocab {% endfor %} {% for b_word in blog_vocab %} ## here i could generate the ids for each instance of blog_vocab {% endfor %} {% for e_word in event_vocab %} ## here i could generate the ids for each instance of blog_vocab {% endfor %} var music = document.querySelectorAll([here i could have a list of ids so i can play and pause them ]) function play() { if (music.paused) { music.play(); pButton.value = "Pause"; pButton.className = "btn btn-primary"; } else { music.pause(); pButton.value = "Continue"; pButton.className = "btn btn-light"; } } </script> Hopefully this kind of solution could also pause a previous audio when i would click on the different button Is it possible to do sth like that in javascript ?? -

Django deploy Gunicorn and NginX
While trying to finally deploy my NEW rover web app a problem occured. I already configured Gunicorn and bind it to 0.0.0.0:80 (with wsgi). Website loads, but without any images, css, javascript files (even "admin" site is without any style). Postgres is installed and running fine. I already did python manage.py collectstatic python manage.py migrate I watched tons of tutorials how to do it.

Using {{ form.media }} for multiple forms is causing jquery to be loaded multiple times?
I am restoring an old Django project and noticed I was getting a console error when I loaded a page: TypeError: $(...).select2 is not a function. After some searching on the internet I found that the error could be related to Jquery being loaded more than once. So I looked at the rendered source for all of my pages and saw that where ever in my template I use {{form.meda}} it adds all of these scripts in: <link href="/static/admin/css/vendor/select2/select2.css" type="text/css" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" /> <link href="/static/admin/css/autocomplete.css" type="text/css" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" /> <link href="/static/autocomplete_light/select2.css" type="text/css" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="/static/admin/js/vendor/jquery/jquery.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/static/autocomplete_light/jquery.init.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/static/admin/js/vendor/select2/select2.full.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/static/autocomplete_light/autocomplete.init.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/static/autocomplete_light/forward.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/static/autocomplete_light/select2.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/static/autocomplete_light/jquery.post-setup.js"></script> Keep in mind that I have multiple forms in other templates and use {{form.media}} all over. I didn't realize it all of those scrips were being added each time for every {{form.media}} and I feel it might be causing problems. I am also using Django Autocomplete-light (dal) for some of my form widgets and notice that it also is not working. Is it normal to have all of those scrips added from form.media? Why would it be adding /static/admin/js/vendor/jquery/jquery.js multiple times (or at all) ... -

Displaying different Django forms at different template locations
I have a model like this: models.py from django.db import models class Foo(models.Model): text = models.TextField() Example instances of this model are: Foo.objects.create(text="My first text [[@shorttext_1@]] random text.") Foo.objects.create(text="Select something from below [[@multipleselect_1@]]. text.") Foo.objects.create(text="A different form [[@shorttext_1@]] and another" "form [[@shorttext_2@]] random texts.") Foo.objects.create(text="Mixed form [[@shorttext_1@]] and another" "form [[@multipleselect_1@]] random text.")

Update database column if other specific column matches variable
I'm in process of creating a script for my django server that updates a database column named TaskStatus if data from myVariable matches the data stored in my other column named TaskID. Something like a loop that updates every single row, one after one. if myVariable and TaskID matches Update TaskStatus with mySecondVariable I know Django has a exist() function so I assume that should be incoorporated into the script. -
How to generate PDF for a single object in Django Admin?
Greetings mighty community of stackoverflow! Thanks to relevant questions here, I managed to figure out how to get every object of a model with Invoice.objects.all() feeded to an html template pdf.html and then converted to PDF via xhtml2pdf and io. I am able to feed in data of a single object manually , putting Invoice.objects.get(pk=1) and removing the jinja {% for invoice in invoices %} {% endfor %}. Previosly I was able to make a column with clickable link for every object in admin (for a different model) which takes the value from object attribute. This is how it was achieved: from django.utils.html import format_html class SipAccountAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): list_display = ('sip_no', 'show_phone_url') def show_phone_url(self, obj): return format_html("<a href='{url}'>{url}</a>", url=obj.sip_account_ip) show_phone_url.short_description = u'Web interface' However, I do not understand how to create a column in admin view with clickable link in a manner as described above, for this Invoice model on every object to generate PDF using the render method. P.S. It may be that the approach is fundamentally incorrect and the task can be achieved way more elegantly. I apologize in advance , because I am new to django and coding as well as it is a first post here... P.P.S. ... -
How to validate signature on the token on SPA using Azure and Django?
I am trying to use Microsoft Outlook mail API in our web application. Followed this tutorial https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/rest/javascript-tutorial first, but some important thing is skipped in it. [Skipped part] https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/rest/javascript-tutorial#using-the-id-token This sample won't do all of the required validations listed in the OpenID spec. Most notably, it won't validate the signature on the token. Currently requesting the signing keys from Azure would require a server-side component, so we'll skip that step for the sake of simplicity. However, production apps should not skip this important step! In the example code: // Per Azure docs (and OpenID spec), we MUST validate // the ID token before using it. However, full validation // of the signature currently requires a server-side component // to fetch the public signing keys from Azure. This sample will // skip that part (technically violating the OpenID spec) and do // minimal validation I have a server-side component created with Django, but I'm not sure how to fetch the public signing keys from Azure. The actual feature I am implementing is sending email via HTML form. I chose to implement this feature on client-side due to several reasons. It's working and I'd like to make authentication secure before deployment. Just ... -
Running two Django projects on one droplet with Gunicorn and Nginx

How to "autodiscover" a different location for the admin.py file?
I think it makes sense to organize my Django apps in a different way (by protocol): 📂myapp apps.py models.py utilities.py 📂html admin.py urls.py views.py 📂rest serializers.py urls.py views.py 📂graphql etc This would move the admin.py file into the rest folder, but sadly autodiscover does not seem to find it anywhere else than in the myapp folder. Is there a way to point to the correct location: perhaps in apps.py? I am sure a symlink would work, but not really what I am after. -
evenly spaced, horizontal radio buttons with labels underneath
For a user form I need several likert items. (Questions to assess the degree of an opinion. Example at the bottom) I'm required to use the oTree library, which heavily builds on django. A solution that deviates from oTree as little as possible is desirable. The RadioSelectHorizontal widget seems like the obvious choice here. But two differences to the default are mandatory: the option labels ("agree", "neutral", etc.) have to be positioned just underneath the radio buttons. the radio buttons have to be evenly spaced. (Ideally, they are aligned across the entire page) In contrast, the default look will have the labels between the radio buttons and allow only as little space as each label needs: The code: question_1 = models.IntegerField(widget=widgets.RadioSelectHorizontal, label="some question", choices=[[1, "strongly disagree"], [2, "disagree"], [3, "neutral"], [4, "agree"], [5, "strongly agree"]]) How can I approach this? django documentation mentions several approachs, i.e. custom widgets, custom CSS and more. But as far as I can tell, oTree is a bit more limited than django. For illustration an example that meets both requirements: -
Validate a form field in django with a default value
I'm here working with django and I'm having some problems to validate my login form. I want the text areas to appear with a default value, only for esthetic, and then I want to write the real username. The problem is that, I don't want the default value to be admitted, because it is not a correct username. Same with the password. I post here my code: forms.py class AutenticacionForm(forms.ModelForm): class Meta: model = User fields = ['username','password'] widgets={'password': forms.PasswordInput(),} def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super(AutenticacionForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.fields['username'].help_text = None self.fields['username'].label = "" self.fields['username'].widget.attrs.update({'required':'true','data-html':'true', 'value':'USUARIO', 'onfocus':'this.value="";', 'onblur':'if(this.value == ""){this.value = "USUARIO";}'}) self.fields['password'].label = "" self.fields['password'].widget.attrs.update({'required':'true','data-html':'true', 'value':'PASSWORD', 'onfocus':'this.value="";', 'onblur':'if(this.value == ""){this.value = "PASSWORD";}'}) That's the way my form looks. USUARIO is just a default value, so I don't want the login to admit that value as correct.
