Django Views not cooperating on form submit
I have 3 buttons that should change the behavior of the videos on the page depending on the chosen dropdowns. But the user chooses a choice from the dropdown, the videos don't cooperate. This is the front end. When I choose something on for example language, the videos should change, but it doesn't. The page ends up on http://localhost:8000/?language=EN&level=LEV&category=CAT then the page breaks I tried adding a reverse_url on the views but it still didn't fix the error. def home(request): filter_form = AMLVideoFilterForm(request.GET) videos = AMLVideo.objects.all() category = filter_form.data.get('category') if category: videos = videos.filter( category__exact=category ) language = filter_form.data.get('language') if language: videos = videos.filter( language__exact=language ) level = filter_form.data.get('level') if level: videos = videos.filter( level__exact=level ) videos = videos.order_by("-category", "-language", "-level") context = {'videos': videos, 'filter_form': filter_form, 'level': level, 'language': language, 'category': category,} return render(request, 'home.html', context) The forms.py is: class AMLVideoFilterForm(forms.Form): LANGUAGE = [ ('LAN', 'Language'), ('EN', 'English'), ('FR', 'French'), ('HIN', 'Hindi'), ('SPA', 'Spanish'), ('GER', 'German'), ] LEVEL = [ ('LEV', 'Level'), ('BEG', 'Beginner'), ('INT', 'Intermediary'), ('ADV', 'Advanced'), ] CATEGORY = [ ('CAT', 'Category'), ('ADN', 'Adventure'), ('ANI', 'Animal'), ('ENV', 'Environmental'), ('MOR', 'Moral'), ('FOLK', 'Folktales'), ('POE', 'Poems'), ('FUN', 'Funny'), ] language = forms.ChoiceField( required=False, choices=LANGUAGE, widget=forms.Select( attrs={ 'onchange' : "this.form.submit()", … -
How to Send an Email Django
Previously, I was using SendGrid to serve emails using Django's SMTP backend, which worked perfectly fine. However, now I would like my project to use Microsoft Exchange.

Bootstrap Notify and Django Messages
How can I show error and warning Django messages using Bootstrap Notify? I'm using this template. I tried django-messages-to-bootstrap-notify but it's not working. I also used a HTML that I inspected from my browser: {% if messages %} {% for message in messages %} <div data-notify="container"><button type="button" aria-hidden="true" class="close" data-notify="dismiss" style="position: absolute; right: 10px; top: 5px; z-index: 1033;">×</button><span data-notify="icon"></span> <span data-notify="title"></span> <span data-notify="message">{{ message }}</span><a href="#" target="_blank" data-notify="url"></a></div> {% endfor %} {% endif %} This is a demo of the form. The author included a PHP code with the form and I think this is the part that shows the notification messages: if(!$mail->Send()) { $response = array ('response'=>'error', 'message'=> $mail->ErrorInfo); }else { $response = array ('response'=>'success'); } What's the best and easiest way to do this ? -

Integrating Jumbo React template with Django
I am pretty new to React (and to frontend development, in general), and I am trying to integrate Jumbo React Admin template with Django. I have been able to launch Jumbo React Admin template on its own following this documentation, and I have, also, been able to integrate Django with React following this tutorial. The main difference between both tutorials (besides directory structure, that is not such a big issue) is that the first one is based in yarn, and the second one on webpack. I decided to use the official Jumbo documentation, and I am trying to do the integration using yarn. So far, I created a Django new project with a frontend application, and I copied Jumbo Admin template's directory in it. This is the resulting directories structure of the project: As you can see in the image, there is the following file: /Users/hugovillalobos/Documents/Code/JumboDjangoProject/JumboDjango/frontend/source/public/index.html but, any way, when I run yarn start, I get the following error: (JumboDjangoVenv) MacBook-Pro-de-Hugo:frontend hugovillalobos$ yarn start yarn run v1.17.3 $ react-scripts start Could not find a required file.

Accounting for latency in simple multiplayer game?
At the moment, to account for latency, in my game (it is essentially tron lightcycles, but to move, one must solve a math problem), I send out the game state to both players every time one of the players turns. On the frontend, I have a function that draws and a function that undraws (to account for when there is latency). Currently, the setup is not performing the desired behavior: the players are not in sync with each other (neither movements nor positions at which users turn are the same for both players). Can someone help me out? This is my first time making a game. Here is the backend code (this code runs when a user submits an answer to a math problem in order to turn their character): def send_answer(answer, game_object, player_type, current_position, current_direction): creator_directions = ['p1up', 'p1right', 'p1down', 'p1left'] opponent_directions = ['p2up', 'p2right', 'p2down', 'p2left'] with transaction.atomic(): # d for direction if player_type == 'creator': for d in creator_directions: if is_correct_answer(getattr(game_object, d), int(answer)): context['move_direction'] = d print(context) new_problem = generate_problem_game( game_object.level, game_object.operation, game_object, player_type) setattr(game_object, d, new_problem) game_object.save() context['new_problem'] = [d, new_problem] # calculate draw and undraw positions # p1_last_pos: player 1 last position p1_last_pos = game_object.p1lastposupdate … -

How to add a user to django site, when using remote auth backend?
I am using Django for a site, and have a remote auth backend setup. Is there a way In which I can create a new user and give them permissions before they login to the site? I know I can add users through the admin page or directly through the database, but since I do not know the new users password, I am not sure if the system will see them as the same user I have tried using the admin page, but it says I need to enter a password I would like to be able to add users to the system before they logon, and give them permissions, so that when they logon they are not redirected to my unauthorized page. Is this possible? -

The view blog.views.BlogViews didn't return an HttpResponse object. It returned None instead

AJAX not reading json CORS allow-origin headers returned from django
I'm calling a Django view with AJAX cross-domains. I'm returning the proper CORS allow-origin headers properly (works in other ajax calls to my api), however, my AJAX response is still fail with browser console error: "Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'foo' from origin 'bar' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource." In my python console, the response is as expected: {"successMessage": "Sent referral email", "Access-Control-Allow-Origin": "", "Access-Control-Allow-Methods": "POST", "Access-Control-Allow-Headers": "", "Access-Control-Max-Age": "1000"} but for some reason this is not translating to AJAX and it's failing. If I remove the json conversion, and simply return HttpResponse(), I get a status 200 from AJAX and no CORS warning, but it still fails. I assume because it's expecting JSON and that's not what it's getting. Help! My ajax: $.ajax({ url: "http://192.168.0.23:8000/api/SendEmail?email=" + $("#refereeEmail").val() + "&refereeName=" + $("#refereeName").val() + "&referrerName=" + $("#referrerName").val(), dataType: "json" }).fail(function (xhr, status, error) { console.log("fail"); $('#email-alert').text("There was an error communicating with the server.

Django Custom Tag Problems
Hello Stack Overflow ! I am making a news site in Django as a part of my "internship", I have just started learning web development. I was given a task to make a custom template ( it HAS to be a custom template ) which will render out 3 latest news from a category, and I have to include it as a sidebar on my "article" page. I tried to write the custom tag, but it's not going to well unfortunately. This is my "last" task for the website, and I'm stuck (like many times before :P ) Here's the thing..everything is working if I include the custom tag on my "list all articles" page, it renders correctly depending on which category I click on. The thing is, once I try to include my tag into my "single article" page I hit a brick wall. The tag is still working, but is now displaying all of my articles, instead of filtering the articles related to that article's category. To simplyfiy, If i click on a "health" article to open it, I want the sidebar just to include the articles for the "health" category, I hope that makes sense. Anyone with … -
How to use `construct_change_message` to create a `change_message` in my own view to log my actions in the built-in `LogEntry` model?in django
I've added a code in my view to log every add action in my add_new_staff page. Here's the code: message = f'New user added. Added staff profile for {user.first_name} {user.last_name}' log = LogEntry.objects.log_action( user_id=request.user.id, content_type_id=ContentType.objects.get_for_model(user).pk, object_id=repr(user.id), # or any field you wish to represent here object_repr=repr(user.username), action_flag=ADDITION, # assuming it's a new object change_message=message,) # a new user has been added log.save() In here, I only made a custom get message thru message string. And I think, for this add_staff_view it is ok to do this. But now, I'm working on my update_staff_profile_view and also, I need to log this action. I saw how the change/update form in django admin page inserts the change_message in LogEntry model(it shows which fields are changed/updated), and I can't think of ways to do it inside my own update_staff_profile_view. Here's my update_staff_profile_view: @login_required def ProfileUpdateView(request): if request.method == 'POST': user_form = accounts_forms.UserUpdateForm(request.POST, instance=request.user) if request.user.is_staff == True: profile_form = accounts_forms.StaffProfileUpdateForm( request.POST, instance=request.user.staffprofile) else: profile_form = accounts_forms.StudentProfileUpdateForm( request.POST, instance=request.user.studentprofile) if user_form.is_valid() and profile_form.is_valid(): user_form.save() profile_form.save() log = LogEntry.objects.log_action( user_id=request.user.id, content_type_id=ContentType.objects.get_for_model(user).pk, object_id=repr(user.id), object_repr=str(user.username), action_flag=CHANGE, change_message = 'IM STUCK HERE',) log.save() messages.success(request, 'Your profile has been updated.') return redirect('update-profile') else: user_form = accounts_forms.UserUpdateForm(instance=request.user) if request.user.is_staff == True: … -

Django templating + Vue templating for the same content for SEO reasons
I'm in the process of building a Django app with limited Javascript interactivity, and am looking at how to incorporate Vue templating along with Django templating for the same content. Imagine an infinite scroll page, where SEO is very important. Django is great at solving this problem since it is per definition a server side framework. However, how would you enrich a page rendered by Django with Vue, provided that both of these technologies need to render the same content? Django would in this case render for the SEO crawlers, right before Vue takes over, Vue "hydrates" these components and make them interactive. After this happens, subsequent content that is fetched asynchronously with AJAX will also be templated using Vue. I have done some research without finding sufficient information on how to solve this: https://vsupalov.com/vue-js-in-django-template/ which is where some parts of the code sample below is based off of https://medium.com/quick-code/crud-app-using-vue-js-and-django-516edf4e4217 which outlines that combining django and vue seems to work pretty well together https://medium.com/@rodrigosmaniotto/integrating-django-and-vuejs-with-vue-cli-3-and-webpack-loader-145c3b98501a I don't get the sense that these sources are talking about SEO, or rather if they are, they utilize Vue templating only where the content is not SEO heavy(like opening a modal). Below is an initial … -

Django: Ignores readonly=True for multiple select of a ManytoManyField despite grayed out area
Bit puzzled, it seems Django Crispy forms ignores readonly=True for a multiple select field linking to a ManytoManyfield. Area is grayed-out but I am still able to change and save the selection into the database. readonly=True should supposedly gray out the area and not allowing to save any changes. readonly=True works on a CharField as intended in the same form. Why is this? is it a bug or a known problem, in such case, what fixes are suggested. class Product(models.Model): product_type = models.CharField(max_length=22, blank=True) class Package(models.Model): product_code = models.CharField(max_length=3) products = models.ManyToManyField('product.Product', blank=True) class ProductModelForm(ModelForm): class Meta: model = Package fields = '__all__' class ProductFieldsForm(ProductModelForm): def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super().__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.helper = FormHelper() self.helper.form_class = 'form-horizontal' self.helper.label_class = 'col-sm-4' self.helper.field_class = 'col-sm-7' self.helper.form_tag = False prd_code = 'product_code' prds = 'products' self.helper.layout = Layout ( Field(prd_code, readonly=True), # WORKS FINE, as intended Field(prds, readonly=True), # **CAN CHANGE and SAVE (gray area)** ) -

What's the proper way to use different pipenv environments for a Django project on different computer systems?
Hopefully this isn't too stupid of a question, concerning the use of pipenv for the same Django project on different computer systems. The scenario is that I'm using pipenv with a test Django project on one laptop, everything works fine, using VS Code and it's using the proper pipenv environment for the Python environment within VS Code. The project however is within Dropbox so when I'm using a different laptop, which I do sometimes, one is my work laptop the other is my personal one at home, I can work on the same project wherever I left off. So you can probably deduce the issue I'm having. I'm using pipenv environment A on my work laptop for the Django project. But when I open the project in VS Code on my personal laptop at home I have to keep specifying the proper pipenv environment to use, which obviously is different than the one on my work laptop. Maybe I shouldn't be working this way and should just work on one laptop for the project, but I imagine others have done the same with similar setups before. Is there a "proper" way to do this, using different pipenv environments on different … -

I am relatively new to Django. I am user a remote auth backend, but I am wondering if there is a way that I can restrict users that do not have permissions, gotten from REMOTE_USER. Is it similar to the way you do it with a Django Auth system? Right now everyone who is logged in on my auth backend can access my site. I want to grant certain users permissions before they login, and deny all other users. Is there a way in which I can do this?
