How to log every request and response if 500 error occurs in django rest framework?
I am using django for rest APIs. I do have a logging code in settings.py. LOGGING = { 'version': 1, 'disable_existing_loggers': False, 'formatters': { 'verbose': { 'format': '%(asctime)s %(levelname)s %(module)s %(process)d %(thread)d %(message)s' }, 'simple': { 'format': '%(asctime)s %(levelname)s %(message)s' }, }, 'handlers': { 'file': { 'level': 'ERROR', 'class': 'logging.FileHandler', 'filename': '/tmp/OAuthLog_Production.log', 'formatter': 'simple' }, }, 'loggers': { 'oauth': { 'handlers': ['file'], 'level': 'ERROR', 'propagate': True, } }, } In the views.py it is being used like this whenever any exception occurs. import logging logger = logging.getLogger("oauth") except Exception as ex: logger.exception(ex) response = helper.generateStandardResponse(ResponseCodes.exception_in_finding_user, "Exception in finding user", data, False); logger.info("get_profile_details : Exception in finding user") return Response(response, status=status.HTTP_200_OK) Since, I am using Elastic beanstalk to host the application I am not returning 500 status code. I am returning custom responses. Even after this there are few 500 errors returned by application. And those are causing environment to "Degrade". I checked my log file but it has errors like this. 2019-11-23 23:53:10,600 ERROR UserProfile matching query does not exist.

Custom Template Tag Render Method Receiving Request Context Instead of Context
This book - https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Django-2-Web-Development-Cookbook-Third-Edition - provides a number of useful custom template tags (except I can't get each to work for the same reason). For example here is the 'try_to_include' custom template tag - class IncludeNode(template.Node): def __init__(self, template_name): self.template_name = template.Variable(template_name) def render(self, context): try: # Loading the template and rendering it included_template = self.template_name.resolve(context) if isinstance(included_template, str): included_template = get_template(included_template) rendered_template = included_template.render(context) except (template.TemplateDoesNotExist, template.VariableDoesNotExist, AttributeError): rendered_template = "" return rendered_template @register.tag def try_to_include(parser, token): """ Usage: {% try_to_include "sometemplate.html" %} This will fail silently if the template doesn't exist. If it does exist, it will be rendered with the current context. """ try: tag_name, template_name = token.split_contents() except ValueError: tag_name = token.contents.split()[0] raise template.TemplateSyntaxError( f"{tag_name} tag requires a single argument") return IncludeNode(template_name) The line - rendered_template = included_template.render(context) throws the error - context must be a dict rather than RequestContext So naturally I checked the django docs - https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/howto/custom-template-tags/#writing-the-renderer Where it doesn't really mention the 'context' parameter. But it seems obvious enough - at least you'd have thought: the 'context' object is the context passed to the template. Indeed later on at section - https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/howto/custom-template-tags/#setting-a-variable-in-the-context - it gives the example of adding a variable to the … -
'ManyToOneRel' object has no attribute 'verbose_name' error after searching
I have an app where I created a relation between Offer and the Contractor in the Offer model: contractor = models.ForeignKey(Contractor, on_delete=models.CASCADE) Everything works fine except one thing. When I am trying to search through Contractors model using verbose name, I am receiving an Atributeerror: 'ManyToOneRel' object has no attribute 'verbose_name' Searching code below (contractors/views.py): def get(self,request): contractors = self.model.objects.all() if 'search' in request.GET: search_for = request.GET['search'] if search_for is not '': filter = request.GET['filterSelect'] search_in = [field.name for field in Contractor._meta.get_fields() if field.verbose_name==filter] kwargs = {'{0}__{1}'.format(search_in[0], 'contains'): search_for} contractors = self.model.objects.all().filter(**kwargs) Why Am I receiving and error if searching is performed on Constructor model and Constructor model have no fields related to Offer model?

How to filter out objects and only show ones where the user is in a ManyToMany field associated with the object Django
So I have this system where my Post object has a ManyToMany field and it's called Saves. So like for example on Reddit you can save a post. So I got it working and users can save posts, and it adds them to the ManyToMany field. However, I want to filter out these posts and only show the posts where said user is in the ManyToMany field. Here is my models.py class Post(models.Model): author = models.ForeignKey(User,related_name='posts',on_delete=models.CASCADE) saves = models.ManyToManyField(User,blank=True,related_name='post_saves') I have the saves field connected to the User model Django provides. And here is my views.py class PostSaveRedirect(RedirectView): def get_redirect_url(self,*args,**kwargs): pk = self.kwargs.get("pk") slug = self.kwargs.get("slug") obj = get_object_or_404(Post,pk=pk,slug=slug) url_ = obj.get_absolute_url() user = self.request.user if user.is_authenticated: if user in obj.saves.all(): obj.saves.remove(user) else: obj.saves.add(user) return url_ So this is all working fine, it adds the user to the ManyToMany field, but now I want to know how I can filter out posts and only display ones where the user is in the ManyToMany field. Here is my saved posts view. class PostSaveListView(ListView): model = Post template_name = 'mainapp/post_saved.html' paginate_by = 10 queryset = models.Post.objects.all() def get(self,request): posts = Post.objects.all() return render(request, self.template_name) def get_queryset(self): return Post.objects.filter().order_by('-published_date') So with Post.objects.all(), how … -
Django redirection malfunctioning behind a load balancer
I have to deploy my Django based app behind a load-balancer that I can't control. E.g https://example.com/loadbalancer/django/. It means all requests targeted to that url (and subsequent additional ones) will be diverted to my Django app. So I worked on the urls.py main file to add a variable named URL_PREFIX = "loadbalancer/django/" : from django.conf import settings from django.contrib import admin from django.urls import include, path, re_path from django.views.generic import TemplateView from django.conf.urls.static import static urlpatterns = [ path("admin/", admin.site.urls), re_path(r"^api-auth/", include("rest_framework.urls")), re_path(r"^accounts/", include("allauth.urls")), path("", TemplateView.as_view(template_name="landing.html"), name="landing"), ] if settings.URL_PREFIX: urlpatterns = [path(r"{}".format(settings.URL_PREFIX), include(urlpatterns))] So far I deployed the application using Nginx, Supervisor and Gunicorn. Everything works perfectly except when I try to use the confirmation dialog for django-allauth. When the user clicks on the link for confirming his signup e-mail e.g: https://example.com/loadbalancer/django/accounts/confirm-email/MQ:1iYsGH:_O-2PyGzd_FiqrpP-2HvI-pmy2s/ , the form generate a new url https://example.com/loadbalancer/django/accounts/confirm-email/MQ:1iYsGH:_O-2PyGzd_FiqrpP-2HvI-pmy2s/loadbalancer/django/beaver/accounts/login/ where the form try to send data. And that produce an error. What solution would you advise me to take ? I have tried to use an adapter : from django.conf import settings from allauth.account.adapter import DefaultAccountAdapter from decouple import config class BeaverAdapter(DefaultAccountAdapter): def get_email_confirmation_redirect_url(self, request): path = config("URL_PREFIX", default="/giews/food-prices/beaver/") + "accounts/login/" return path But it hasn't worked so … -

For example: CITIZENSHIP_CHOICES = { (u'Canada', u'Canada'), (u'USA', u'USA'), (u'United Kingdom', u'United Kingdom'), (u'None', u"None of the above"), } COUNTRY_CHOICES = { ('USA', 'USA'),('Canada', 'Canada'),('Israel', 'Israel'),('UK', 'UK'),('Afghanistan', 'Afghanistan'),('Albania', 'Albania'),('Algeria', 'Algeria'),('Andorra', 'Andorra'),('Angola', 'Angola'),('Antigua and Barbuda', 'Antigua and Barbuda'),('Argentina', 'Argentina'),('Armenia', 'Armenia'),('Australia', 'Australia'),('Austria', 'Austria'),('Azerbaijan', 'Azerbaijan'),('Bahamas', 'Bahamas'),('Bahrain', 'Bahrain'),('Bangladesh', 'Bangladesh'),('Barbados', 'Barbados'),('Belarus', 'Belarus'),('Belgium', 'Belgium'),('Belize', 'Belize'),('Benin', 'Benin'),('Bermuda', 'Bermuda'),('Bhutan', 'Bhutan'),('Bolivia', 'Bolivia'),... } SERVICE_LENGTH_CHOICES = { (6, "6"), (12, "12"), (18, "18"), (21, "21"), (24, "24"), (28, "28"), (30, "30"), (32, "32"), (32, "36"), (42, "42") } All of my fields are in the same model in models.py. Each one of the drop down fields looks like this: citizenship = models.CharField(max_length=100, choices=CITIZENSHIP_CHOICES, null=True, blank=True) For some reason though, in my form, the drop downs are in a strange order. I'd like it either to be in the order I entered it in models.py or to order it alphabetically/numerically. 321 Everything I've found online discusses foreign keys, but I'm not using any foreign keys. Any help is much appreciated. -

name 'get_object_or_404' is not defined
I am following this tutorial: https://tutorial-extensions.djangogirls.org/en/homework_create_more_models/ Which i am adding onto a simple blog I made so i can add comments Me error: name 'get_object_or_404' is not defined From this method in views.py def add_comment_to_post(request, pk): post = get_object_or_404(Post, pk=pk) # post = Post if request.method == "POST": form = CommentForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): comment = form.save(commit=False) comment.post = post comment.save() return redirect('post_detail', pk=post.pk) else: form = CommentForm() return render(request, 'add_comment_to_post.html', {'form': form}) As you see the #hashed out line. This allows me to get to the comment view but then then I get the error that Cannot assign "<class 'blog.models.Post'>": "Comment.post" must be a "Post" instance. That makes sense but wanted to point that out. I assume this is a database issue? my models.py: from django.db import models from django.contrib.auth.models import User STATUS = ( (0,"Draft"), (1,"Publish") ) class Post(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=200, unique=True) slug = models.SlugField(max_length=200, unique=True) author = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete= models.CASCADE,related_name='blog_posts') updated_on = models.DateTimeField(auto_now= True) content = models.TextField() created_on = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) status = models.IntegerField(choices=STATUS, default=0) class Meta: ordering = ['-created_on'] def __str__(self): return self.title class Comment(models.Model): comment = models.CharField(max_length=100) created_on = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) post = models.ForeignKey('blog.Post', on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='comments') def __str__(self): return self.comment class Meta: ordering = ['created_on'] Everything in … -
Materialize css adds ::after to input labels and does not display them
Screenshot of the form and inspect page I'm making forms with django for user input. I added materialize css styles. However, the latest removes labels from several inputs in the form as on screenshot. When i disable materialize css, labels display normally. As i've seen, materialize css adds "::after" to some labels. I've tried specifying labels directly in django, however it didn't help. Whan can i do to display them? Django template: {% load static %} {% block content %} <div class="container"> <form method="post"> <h3>Add a new appointment</h3> {% csrf_token %} {% for field in form %} {{ field.label_tag }} {{ field }} {% endfor %} <div class="right-align total"> <button type="submit" class="waves-effect waves-light btn green submit">Submit</button> </div> </form> </div> <script> $(document).ready(function() { $('select').material_select(); }); </script> {% endblock content %} in layout.html i specify <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/materialize/1.0.0/css/materialize.min.css"> -
Alternative to apt-get install packages on pythonanywhere?
I'm trying to deploy a django project to pythonanywhere. I'm using this package in my project: https://github.com/algoo/preview-generator In order for preview-generator to work it has the following requirements: apt-get install zlib1g-dev libjpeg-dev python3-pythonmagick inkscape xvfb poppler-utils libfile-mimeinfo-perl qpdf libimage-exiftool-perl ufraw-batch ffmpeg Is there any way for me to install these required packages on the pythonanywhere server? I read that the best you can do is make a request to the pythonanywhere team to have the packages added in future versions. If this is still the case can anyone recommend a host that allows you to install these kinds of modules?
