Why is Django throwing me this attribute error even though I am passing a slug to the url?
I am trying to use the UserPassesTestMixin in some of my generic views, but Django keep giving me this attribute error as if I were not passing a pk or slug to the url for a specific page (in my case, I pass a slug). Here's the AttributeError: Generic detail view PostUpdateView must be called with either an object pk or a slug in the URLconf. Here's the url conf for your reference: urlpatterns = [ path("create/", views.CreateObjView.as_view(), name="create-obj-upn"), path("update/<slug:slugstring>/", views.ObjUpdateView.as_view(), name="obj-update-upn"), path("delete/<slug:slugstring>/", views.ObjDeleteView.as_view(), name="obj-delete-upn"), ] Here's two of the generic views I am trying to use with the UserPassesTestMixin: class PostCreateView(LoginRequiredMixin, UserPassesTestMixin, CreateView): model = Post fields = ["content"] template_name = "post/post_create.html" def test_func(self): return self.request.user == self.get_object().author class PostUpdateView(LoginRequiredMixin, UserPassesTestMixin, UpdateView): model = Post fields = ["content"] template_name = "post/post_update.html" def test_func(self): return self.request.user in self.get_object().author What might I be doing wrong?

How to call a view as a command in Heroku's Scheduler?
I've a test app that goes to a page, do some webscrapping and create a record with some of the contents of this page.

Django Admin multiple Inlines without cascading\nested tables
(I'm struggling with how to title this, so please feel free to edit or suggest an edit) In Django Admin, I would like to be able to view all the details for a "flagged" album, including the photos themselves. class Album(models.Model): user = models.ForeignKey( settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, on_delete=models.CASCADE, ) title = models.CharField(max_length=40) class Photo(models.Model): album = models.ForeignKey(Album, on_delete=models.CASCADE) name = models.CharField(max_length=255) photo = models.ImageField(upload_to='photos/%Y/%m/%d/', height_field='photo_height', width_field='photo_width') class Flag(models.Model): album = models.ForeignKey(Album, on_delete=models.CASCADE) description = models.TextField(blank=True) The problem I'm running into is that Photo and Flag are "sister" tables of Album (not sure how to describe that) so there's not cascading one-to-many relationships. Viewing the photos from the Album is easy with an inline... class PhotoInline(admin.TabularInline): model = Photo class AlbumAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): inlines = (PhotoInline, ) admin.site.register(Album, AlbumAdmin) but how do I then include THAT in my FlagAdmin class? All I really care about is seeing the photo names\url (or eventually preview.) are "inlines" the wrong way of going about this since I'm not needing to edit the "child" records? -

How do you add 2 specific people to a specific chat and then redirect them to another page in chat in django channels
I want to take anyone who connects to our server and immediately connect them with someone from our team and redirect both of them to a unique chat page. I don't know how to connect them with someone from our team and redirect both of them. I am stuck on that part. I really appreciate the help. I tried redirecting from the consumer page, but that did not seem to work whatever I did. It would get to the redirect and then do nothing. I then tried closing the socket connection and then redirecting them and that did not work either. I am stuck on how to group them and redirect both of them. class ChatConsumer(WebsocketConsumer): def connect(self): self.room_name = self.scope['url_route']['kwargs']['room_name'] self.room_group_name = 'chat_%s' % self.room_name # Join room group async_to_sync(self.channel_layer.group_add)( self.room_group_name, self.channel_name ) self.accept() # mine! # finds which user just connected to the websocket user = self.scope['user'] print(user) ready.append(user) # trying to group person online and from our team # async_to_sync(self.channel_layer.group_add)( # self.room_group_name, # self.channel_name, # ready[0], # team[0], # ) # trying different ways to redirect, none worked # self.disconnect(close_code=redirect('https://www.yahoo.com/')) # self.close() # redirecting() # ready.append(user) # print(ready[0]) # self.disconnect(self.redirectIT('home')) # # raise channels.exceptions.StopConsumer # redirect('room', 'hi') … -

How to POST over multiple variables using forms in Django
Using HTML forms if you wanted to POST over multiple variables you would have to set the name of your input field to "name[]", and then when you POST['name'] you can get the information form every input field with the name "name[]". Currently I am working with Django, and implementing a view that involves a form that will POST over a variable amount of variables. When I try to implement the same method as described above in Django, I am getting a "MultiValueDictKeyError" instead. By removing the brackets in the input variables name I no longer get the error, but it will only POST over the last value, and I need it to POST over all the values. <form action = "{% url view_name %}" method = POST> /* Variable amount of these inputs */ <input type = "input" name = "name[]"> <input typy = "input" name = "name[]"> <input type = "submit" name = "submit" value = "Submit"> </form> postVar = request.POST["name"] -

Is it possible to have multiple Django caches on the same ElastiCache node?
I currently have a Django installation on AWS EC2 that uses an ElastiCache node for database result memcaching. The Django cache is defined as follows in the settings.py: CACHES = { 'default': { 'BACKEND': 'django_elasticache.memcached.ElastiCache', 'LOCATION': 'cacheurl.amazonaws.com:portnumber', } } I'd like to specify a new cache for a specific app in Django (I need to clear it for certain tasks, and I don't want to clear cache for all apps), like so: CACHES = { 'default': { 'BACKEND': 'django_elasticache.memcached.ElastiCache', 'LOCATION': 'cacheurl.amazonaws.com:portnumber', }, 'appname_cache:' { 'BACKEND': 'django_elasticache.memcached.ElastiCache', 'LOCATION': 'cacheurl.amazonaws.com:portnumber', } } My question is: can I do this and still use the same ElastiCache node, or do I need to create a new ElastiCache node to make sure the cache is separate? Which is to say, in this code: from django.core.cache import caches cache1 = caches['default'] cache2 = caches['appname_cache'] Are cache1 and cache2 referencing the same cache, or different ones (if the same node is used)? -
django admin TabularInline - how to access fields when using `through`

In admin.py I've declared class GameTabularInline(admin.TabularInline): model = GameRound.games.through BUT I want to be able to edit the fields within the Game model as well rather than popping a window. I've tried adding: fields = ['games__home_team','games__home_score','games__away_score','games__away_team','games__match_date'] which works for a ManyToOne relationship (ie when Game has a ForeignKey to GameRound) but here gives the error: Unknown field(s) (games__home_team, games__home_score, games__away_team, games__away_score, games__match_date) specified for GameRound_games Is there a way to achieve this? -
Best approach for AWS permissions to allow upload new files and publicly read static/media files for Django website on Heroku
AWS Permissions What is the best approach to make sure the account, bucket and everything is properly secured and on top of that by pushing code to Heroku (Django Website) and using boto s3 library it can upload files to bucket (static, media - via Django Admin / Forms) and the website is properly working. These are the settings in the settings.py AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID = env('DJANGO_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID') AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY = env('DJANGO_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY') AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME = env('DJANGO_AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME') AWS_S3_REGION_NAME = env('REGION_NAME') # e.g. us-east-2 AWS_S3_CUSTOM_DOMAIN = '{}.s3.amazonaws.com'.format(AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME) AWS_AUTO_CREATE_BUCKET = True AWS_QUERYSTRING_AUTH = False AWS_S3_CALLING_FORMAT = OrdinaryCallingFormat() AWS_DEFAULT_ACL = "public-read" Right now my settings are: OFF OFF ON ON Is this proper combination - or what else I should do to protect the bucket more that I have no some security holes but keeping in mind that website is working including uploading files / images via admin and static files. -
Redirecting to root URL from another app's view
I am trying to redirect to root URL when an app's URL is accessed without the user being logged-in. I've tried to do so in 2 ways: Using a decorator @login_required(login_url = '') def index(request): return render(request, 'professors/index.html') Which returned a 404 error saying the current path is accounts/login Passing the views of the root page to redirect def index(request): if request.user.is_authenticated: return render(request, 'professors/index.html') else: return redirect('login.views.index') Which returned a 404 error saying the current path is professors/login.views.index The root URL is localhost:8000/ and I am trying to redirect to it after accessing localhost:8000/professors/ when the user is not logged-in. This problem is similar to what I've found here: Django redirect to root from a view However, applying the solution did not work for me. It looks like when redirecting to root from an app's view, the root it is redirecting to is the app's root, and not the website's, and this is true for any URL redirected after accessing an app's URL. E.g., if the root URL is localhost:8000 and the app's URL is localhost:8000/professors/, then trying to access any other URL from the latter, will mean that localhost:8000/professors/ is the starting point and what I write in … -

I have the following mixins: class AbandonableMixin(object): is_abandoned = models.BooleanField( default=False, verbose_name=_('Abandoned?')) class ReadyMixin(object): is_ready = models.BooleanField( default=False, verbose_name=_('Ready?')) class StoppableMixin(object): is_stopped = models.BooleanField( default=False, verbose_name=_('Stopped?')) I would like to use these in my class like ordinary mixins: class MyObject(models.Model, AbandonableMixin, StoppableMixin): ... class MySecondObject(models.Model, ReadyMixin, StoppableMixin): ... This results in the following error: TypeError: Cannot create a consistent method resolution order (MRO) for bases Model, AbandonableMixin What am I doing wrong?
