How to add more data when registering a user by python-social-auth
I already implemented a successful Facebook register form in my django project with python-social-auth. However, now I need to create the registered user with additional data in the register form of my page.

Django - how to store different parsing techniques for different XML formats?
Every user has different csv/xml feed url. Some users feeds are "standardized" so the parsing techniques/scripts can be shared. But some users has very unique feed formats and I need to write custom script. I'm trying to figure out way to store such scripts so either I choose existing parsing technique inside admin or I write code and assign it to the object. How would you do that? My idea is to have a folder with these scripts and every object would have FilePathField so I can choose or create a new script. Is there another way? class Feed(BaseTimeStampedModel): url .... name = models.CharField(max_length=64) template = models.FilePathField(path='feeds/parsers/', recursive=True, match='tparser__.*') -

How to actually make a PATCH request to DRF
So I've been looking around and researching a bit and still couldn't figure out how to make a PATCH request to the DRF. Here's my view: class AttendanceView(viewsets.ModelViewSet): queryset = Attendance.objects.all() serializer_class = AttendanceSerializer permission_classes = (permissions.IsAuthenticatedOrReadOnly,) parser_classes = (MultiPartParser, FormParser) def patch(self, request, *args, **kwargs): att = self.request.query_params.get('id', None) att_obj = get_object_or_404(Attendance, pk=att) serializer = AttendanceSerializer(att_obj, data=request.data, partial=True) if serializer.is_valid(): att_obj = serializer.save() return Response(AttendanceSerializer(att_obj).data) return Response(serializer.errors, status=status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST) def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs): file_serializer = AttendanceSerializer(data=request.data) if file_serializer.is_valid(): file_serializer.save() return Response(file_serializer.data, status=status.HTTP_201_CREATED) else: return Response(file_serializer.errors, status=status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST) And I have all the standard serializers and urls set. I am using the Python requests library. How do I send a PATCH request to my API so I can update a field in my attendance object? Also please let me know if there's something missing in or for my patch method. I appreciate your time in reading this. Thank you so much. -

S3 old uploaded image displayed with django-storages - deactivate caching?
When uploading a file I want to overwrite the existing file. I save all files with the same name. The upload to S3 seems to work but the new image is not displayed. I think, this is due to S3 caching making images (saved under the same name) available after 24h? I want to disable that cashing when uploading a new file with boto3 and django-storages but I can't seem to figure out how this works? I the docs I find this parameter, but is does not seem to work: AWS_S3_OBJECT_PARAMETERS = { 'CacheControl': 'max-age=86400', } -
