How to add pdf file to django response

How to separate logic correctly into separate applications?
I implement simple django website, where I tried to separate different parts from website in different APPs, but I'm facing some problems: I have two django apps, right now (core - where are heaader, footer, index) and (objects - where I have objects which I want to list at index page): core/templates/header.html (header elements, login, logout etc) core/templates/index.html (html tags, blocks, etc..): <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> {% block 'head-title' %} {% endblock %} {% load static %} <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.3.1/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-ggOyR0iXCbMQv3Xipma34MD+dH/1fQ784/j6cY/iJTQUOhcWr7x9JvoRxT2MZw1T" crossorigin="anonymous"> <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.4.1.min.js" integrity="sha256-CSXorXvZcTkaix6Yvo6HppcZGetbYMGWSFlBw8HfCJo=" crossorigin="anonymous"> </script> <script src="{% static 'core/js/custom.js' %}"></script> </head> <body> {% include 'header.html' %} {% block 'body' %} {% endblock %} </body> </html> core/templates/home.html (homepage - here I want to list all Objects and implement filters for them): {% extends 'index.html' %} {% block 'body' %} {% endblock %} core/views.py: from django.shortcuts import render, redirect def show_home_page(request): return render(request, "home.html") Ok everything is perfect, but now I don't know how to add listing of elements: What I tried is to call Object model in show_home_page() function with Object.objects.all() and pass this list to home.html and for filters to call same function with parameters, for example def show_home_page(request, price_up, distance): But then I mess … -
Djanog/drf - delete method
I want to delete likes from my Likes table. for which I am making an axios call from the front end with axios({ method: "delete", url:http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/delete/, params: { companyid: xyz } }) It is supposed to delete a like that has company_id = xyz in it. The Url looks like this path('delete/', DeleteLikesView.as_view()), (/api/ is included in the project's urls.py. So taken care of...) and the DeleteLikesView - class DeleteLikesView(DestroyAPIView): queryset = Likes.objects.all() serializer_class = LikesSerializer def perform_destroy(self, request): print(self.kwargs['companyid']) companyid = self.kwargs['companyid'] instance = Likes.objects.get( company_id=companyid, user_id=request.user.id) instance.delete() I am either being stuck with errors 403 (csrf_token error. Although I tried using csrf_exempt, no luck) or 405 method not allowed(for which I refered this. the solution in this question puts me back with 403 error) Any help is appreciated. Thank! -

MySQL: cannot save non-ascii characters in database
Whenever I try to save an address with non-ascii characters like: 721-1 Higashishiokōjichō, Shimogyō-ku, Kyoto, 600-8216, Japan Mysql fails with an error: OperationalError(1366, "Incorrect string value: '\\xC5\\x8Djich...' for column 'formatted_address' at row 1") What is the best practice to save foreign language characters in database?

Cost calculations: suggestions for code improvements
I stumbled upon this piece of code to calculate costs based on country code and city(optional). There is also a condition that countries in Asia have separate pricing logic depending on both country and city and they are stored in a different table (for segregating regional price variances). For the rest, it's only dependent on country code. Let's assume we must have separate tables Asia & the rest. Please suggest some improvements in the below code. def get_cost_by_location(country_code: str, city=None) -> Optional[models.OperatorCost]: cost = None # check if the country is in Asia if models.OperatorCostAsia.objects.filter(country=country_code).exists(): cost = models.OperatorCostAsia.objects.filter(country=country_code, city__icontains=city).first() if cost is None: cost = models.OperatorCostAsia.objects.filter(country=country_code).first() else: cost = models.OperatorCost.objects.filter(country=country_code).first() return cost -
Django cannot login user after registration

In a django model, provide a set of default set of fields but also allow users to add their own
Not the most descriptive title, I know, but my question is much better illustrated with an example. Let's say I'm making an application that will allow student drivers to log their driving time. They are required to log day time and night time, so I provide both fields by default. But let's say for the sake of argument that one curious teenager decides he wants to track the time he spends while driving in thunderstorms as well. And another one decides he wants to track how much time he spends driving in snow. What is the best way of making this possible using Django? This is a rough outline of how I'm thinking about this now. Assume this is in models.py: class Trip(models.Model): user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete = models.CASCADE) date = models.DateField() class DrivingTime(models.Model): trip = models.ForeignKey(Trip, on_delete=models.CASCADE) tag = models.ForeignKey(AcceptableTimeType, on_delete=models.CASCADE) hours = models.TimeField() class AcceptableTimeType(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=50) # null/blank if visible for everyone # otherwise, should link to the user that wants this specific type of time tracked user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=CASCADE, blank=True, null=True) I pre-set the list of default types of time (day/night in this example) in the Django admin and leave the User field blank. … -

How to represent multiple routes on Google Maps API with GPS Coordiates
I've looked at similar questions, and they all refer to Google Maps API DirectionsRenderer(). I have a set of GPS coordinates, and each set has a flight_id. Instead of Point A to Point B directions, I have every GPS coordinate I want to plot, connecting the lines from each distinct flight_id start and end points together with a provided timestamp. For example: [{ "flight_id": "2220", "first": { "lat": 41.9554, "lng": -87.888, "timestamp": "2019-07-15T22:32:50" }, "last": { "lat": 41.9554, "lng": -87.888, "timestamp": "2019-07-23T17:45:33" } }, { "flight_id": "2365", "first": { "lat": 41.9469, "lng": -87.8651, "timestamp": "2019-08-11T13:31:20" }, "last": { "lat": 36.844, "lng": -76.288, "timestamp": "2019-08-13T14:15:40" } }] I'm able to get one set of GPS coords first and last points to display on a map, but not multiple.

How to use pypy with Django along with postgresql backend?
Is there a way to install psycopg2 with pypy. I am trying to run Django with pypy and the main problem I am facing is psycopg2 library. pypy documentation says that I can install psycopg2cffi library instead, but I don't know how to tell Django postgresql backend to use psycopg2cffi instead of psycopg2. Is there any way I can do that? Is there a way to install psycopg2 with pypy. or more broadly, is there any advantage of using pypy than normal Cpython compiler with Django? I tried running various python programs using both Cpython and pypy and shockingly pypy was much faster. So, I thought using pypy can actually increase the throughput of APIs by reducing the time of each API, but I haven't found any documentation for the same? Any leads are welcome!! Thanks in advance. -
Automatically import custom files in Django
I have a Django project containing some files which are, obviously, not automatically discovered by Django. My workaround is to import them in urls.py so that Django can see them. This is how my urls.py looks like: from django.contrib import admin from django.urls import path from custom_file_1 import * # "unused" import from custom_file_2 import * # "unused" import urlpatterns = [ ... ] My IDE considers the commented imports unused, since they are not used, but they are vital so that Django can process those files. And the question: is there any nice way to let Django see those files? And how to do that? -
