Accessing model function via javascript in Django template
I have a Django project which displays a google map using the google javascript map api. The model includes a class called PlacePage which has a function that returns the first (primary) image in an image gallery: class PlacePage(Page): name = models.CharField(max_length=40) email = models.EmailField(max_length=254) place_type = models.CharField(max_length=40) one_line_description = models.CharField(max_length=250) latlng_address = models.CharField(max_length=255) def main_image(self): gallery_item = self.gallery_images.first() print(gallery_item) if gallery_item: return gallery_item.image else: return None The map is created by the javascript code, which receives the list of places: <script> var places; var map; function initMap() { var places = {{ places_array|safe }}; map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), { center: {lat: 38.608000, lng: -121.4555}, zoom: 16.5, styles: [ {elementType: 'labels.text.fill', stylers: [{color: '#746855'}]}, { featureType: 'administrative.locality', elementType: 'labels.text.fill', stylers: [{color: '#d59563'}] }, { featureType: 'road.highway', elementType: 'labels.text.fill', stylers: [{color: '#f3d19c'}] }, { featureType: 'poi.business', stylers: [{visibility: 'off'}] }, { featureType: 'transit', elementType: 'labels.icon', stylers: [{visibility: 'on'}] } ] }); for (index = 0; index < places.length; index++) { addMarker(places[index], index+1); } } There is an event listener on each marker which creates an infowindow: marker.addListener('mouseover', function() { infowindow.open(map, marker); }); function infowindow_content(place) { content = '<div id="content">'+ '<img height="100" src="' + place.main_image + ' width="160">' + '<h3 id="firstHeading" class="firstHeading">' … -

Adding padding to span element when an error message occurs in CSS
In my project, I have a form where users can signup. If an error occurs, I pass it through from my backend(Django) to my frontend. Here in the HTMl, I do an If statement to see if the error has been passed and if so, I want to display it below the field that caused the error. I successfully display the error below the form field the error came from. I display the error inside a span element. The only problem is that I want to add some space above and below the span element itself. I attempt this, but no space at all is added. Here is the code relating to this: <!-This is a flexbox container below-> <div class="flex-container"> <form class="signupForm" autocomplete="off" method="POST"> {% csrf_token %} {% if usernameError %} <span style="color: #E77B04; position:relative; top: 62px; font-size: 15px; padding-top: 15px;"> {{ usernameError }} </span> {% endif %} {% for field in form %} {{ field }} <br> {% endfor %} <button class="signupBtn" type="submit">Sign up</button> </form> </div> -
Expected iterable return type Django GraphQL
I have a many-to-many field in a Django model and a mutation that creates a list of objects then adds them to the object. Checking the created object in the shell seems to confirm the objects are created correctly, yet I still get an error when returning the data?

Django secret key

Build a web mongo shell?
Because my company will block the network between (devbox and laptops) and (database hosts), the "mongo mongodb://ip:port/dataname -u usr -p password" with "mongo shell" will no longer works for any user soon. Instead, the way is "user -> website (a Django server running on the jump server) -> (database hosts). My task is to build a web query server on our Django website to let our users do some query like Robo3T do. I have already done a "high school student" version like this: 1. Django get the query, check it. 2. Django server runs "mongo shell with --eval + query" with python subprocess to query mongodb. 3. Django return the data as HttpResponse to users. However this method has so many limits. I wandered is there any way to hold the "mongo shell session" on the Django server. So the process become the follows: 1. A user send a query to Django. The query is just a string, and the query can return many data, so the "it" (cursor) has to be used to return more following data. 2. Django open a mongo shell session and query with the string, and send back the first batch of data to … -
Is this Hack to work around PASSWORD_RESET_TIMEOUT_DAYS cannot be set to less than one day safe?
Django does not allow the variable PASSWORD_RESET_TIMEOUT_DAYS to be set to less than one day. As a workaround, I am thinking of sending the timestamp in the password reset activation URL, using this format: path('activate/<uidb64>/<timestamp>/<token>/', views.activate, name='activate') Using the timestamp, I could then manually check whether the timestamp is within a period of time that is less than one day. Was wondering if doing this is unsafe from a security point of view? -

Deploying Django Application to Elastic Beanstalk with Django Cities Light
I am deploying a django application to elastic beanstalk and it uses the django-cities-light package. Right now I have the following elasticbeanstalk config: container_commands: 01_add_cities_light: command: "source /opt/python/run/venv/bin/activate && python manage.py cities_light" leader_only: true But this causes every deployment to run the full cities light package, resulting in deployment times in excess of 10 minutes. When this line is removed, deployment takes less than half the same amount of time with far less RDS utilization. Is there a better way to implement this package to allow for more efficient deployments and scaling? -

What is the optimal way to write function-based views in Django?
What is the recommended way to write views (as functions) in Django? I am asking in terms of readability, etc. For example: define the template first, then do the translations, then define models and lastly define context. Here is some example code: def index(request): # Landing page, translated to the browser's language (default is english) template = loader.get_template("koncerti/index.html") # Translators: This is the text on the homepage buttons concerts = gettext("Koncerti") band = gettext("Band") # Translators: This is the option in the language-switch box foreignLanguage = gettext("eng") koncertiUrl = '/koncerti/international' # The URL slug leading to 'koncerti' page bandUrl = '/band/international' # The URL slug leading to 'band' page translationMode = '' # The URL slug that is leading to slovenian translation mode context = { 'Concerts' : concerts, 'Band' : band, 'foreignLanguage' : foreignLanguage, 'koncertiUrl' : koncertiUrl, 'bandUrl' : bandUrl, 'translationMode' : translationMode } return HttpResponse(template.render(context, request)) -
