How to store next/return URL in Django FormView
I have a Django FormView that has two entry points from different edit buttons on different URLs. Once the user is done editing, I would like to return then to the URL they were originally on. To do this, I need to know the URL the user originally came from. So far, I have done the following: include a next parameter in the call to the FormView, then add that next parameter to the form action so that when the form is posted I can retrieve it e.g. <form method="post" action="http://127.0.0.1:8000/main/2/item/update?next=read_view"> ... </form> However, on the form post I cannot seem to get hold of the action to get the next parameter. Is there a standard way to handle this in Django? My approach feels a bit clunky. -
Not able to migrate, Foreignkey in models is causing the issue
so I have the two following models that I'm trying to migrate. class Organisation(models.Model): id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True) name = models.CharField(max_length=256) created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) updated_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) status = models.CharField(max_length=64,choices=STATUS,default='active') logo_file_path = models.CharField(max_length=2048) and class Team(models.Model): id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True) name = models.CharField(max_length=256) created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) updated_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) status = models.CharField(max_length=64,choices=STATUS,default='active') org_id = models.ForeignKey(Organisation(),to_field=id, on_delete=models.CASCADE) I need Team.org_id linked to Organisation.id, so I'm trying to use it as a foreign key. but while trying to make migration it is giving me the following system error: SystemCheckError: System check identified some issues: ERRORS: db_app.Team.org_id: (fields.E312) The to_field 'db_app.Team.id' doesn't exist on the related model 'db_app.Organisation'. Note: db_app is my django app name. I guess the to_field argument in the foreign key is causing the issue. I'm not sure though. I have tried it on different models in a different project the error remains the same. -

How do I create a tally card for my items in my warehouse management system

And when the user clicked on the item, it will display all the transactions made on that item like the table above So far, I have this in my model to save items and their info in the warehouse.

How can I display the result of steganalysis on my website using Django and HTML?
I am currently developing a website for steganalysis. All codes and functions can be used appropriately, however I could not make the result appear on the page of my website. In this website, I should have produced the result of steganalysis onto the same pagee in its own section but it did not happen. I have intergrated the index.html and views.py according to the mentioned code below. return render(request, 'index.html') For each tasks in views.py, I have included above code, however nothing changed. The result still does not display on the web page. The concept of the website is similar to cyberchef where it does not store any of the analysis tasks. It only perform tasks selected by user and produces the results. -

How to implement authentication in postgresql based on Django?

That is, there is a database, it has a table in which the login and password are stored. We can simply go through authorization when accessing it. How to make it so that when a user registers, the login and password are entered directly into this table (where the login and password are stored)?
