Starting docker with powershell dev script
I am doing a docker project from scratch, and following a tutorial (I am following the Django2 WebDevelopment Cookbook). I came upon a section, that I don't know how to convert to Powershell from Bash. I have the following script in my /bin/dev.ps1 #!/usr/bin/env bash # bin/dev # environment variables to be defined externally for security # - MYSQL_USER # - MYSQL_PASSWORD # - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD DOMAIN=myproject.local DJANGO_USE_DEBUG=1 \ DJANGO_USE_DEBUG_TOOLBAR=1 \ SITE_HOST="$DOMAIN" \ MEDIA_HOST="media.$DOMAIN" \ STATIC_HOST="static.$DOMAIN" \ MYSQL_HOST="localhost" \ MYSQL_DATABASE="myproject_db" \ docker-compose $* I have edited the file to such, since the above wasn't working for Windows: #!/usr/bin/env bash # bin/dev # environment variables to be defined externally for security # - MYSQL_USER # - MYSQL_PASSWORD # - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD $DOMAIN="myproject.local" $DJANGO_USE_DEBUG=1 $DJANGO_USE_DEBUG_TOOLBAR=1 $SITE_HOST="$DOMAIN" $MEDIA_HOST="media.$DOMAIN" $STATIC_HOST="static.$DOMAIN" $MYSQL_HOST="localhost" $MYSQL_DATABASE="myproject_db" docker-compose And now it gives me the standard output when you run docker-compose without any arguments. I am trying to also run the following from my terminal: MYSQL_USER=myproject_user \ > MYSQL_PASSWORD=pass1234 \ > ./bin/dev up -d Obviously this won't work in Windows, it even gives me an error that it can't find the MYSQL_USER command or anything. How do I edit the PS file so that I can use it for Windows? And how … -

Django (or sqlite3) change(s) the sequence of attributes of a model
I'm using django with sqlite3, and here is my models.py: from django.db import models from django.conf import settings from django.utils import timezone class VoterDetails(models.Model): number = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) voter_id = models.CharField(null=True,max_length=200) elector_name = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) father_or_husband_name = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) has_husband = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) house_no = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) age = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) sex = models.CharField(max_length=6,null=True) ac_name = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) parl_constituency = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) part_no = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) year = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) state = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) filename = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) main_town = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) police_station = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) mandal = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) revenue_division = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) district = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) pin_code = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) polling_station_name = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) polling_station_address = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) net_electors_male = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) net_electors_female = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) net_electors_third_gender = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) net_electors_total = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True) change = models.CharField(default="",max_length=200,null=True) def __str__(self): return self.elector_name As one can see, there is no attribute, which would claim to be the primary key. In this case, django generates an attribute id, which is an auto incrementing Auto field, which is chosen as the primary key. I did the migrations, and then checked the schema of the table temp_voterdetails thus generated.(temp is the name of my app.) sqlite> .schema temp_voterdetails CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS "temp_voterdetails" ( "id" integer NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, "age" varchar(200) NULL, "ac_name" varchar(200) NULL, "change" varchar(200) NULL, "district" varchar(200) NULL, "elector_name" varchar(200) NULL, … -
Specify related string field in Django Rest Framework
Django 1.11, Django Rest Framework 3.6. I have 2 models, Foo and Bar: class Foo(models.Model): name=models.CharField() sex=models.CharField() class Bar(models.Model): type=models.CharField() foo=models.ForeignKey(Foo) In my serializers.py I have: class FooSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = Foo fields = ('sex',) class BarSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): foo = FooSerializer(many=False) class Meta: model = Bar fields = ('type', 'foo',) This produces JSON like this: { "type": "abcdefg", "foo": { "sex": "male" } } What I really want is for the "foo" field to be flat, i.e.: { "type": "abcdefg", "foo": "male" } One possible solution would be to use the StringRelatedField, but this would entail setting the __str__ method of the Foo model to return the sex field, which I do not want. -

Django tables2 sorting
I have a django model that I am rendering with django tables2. I am trying to make the columns sortable. It appears by default clicking on the headers should sort them already looking at the browser address localhost:10000/gui/?sort=max_val But it doesn't do anything. I added a method following https://django-tables2.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pages/ordering.html But this still does not order anything. class Strategy(models.Model): ... max_val = models.DecimalField(max_digits=32, decimal_places=0) class DfTable(tables.Table): max_val = tables.Column() def order_max_val(self, QuerySet, is_descending): QuerySet = QuerySet.order_by(('-' if is_descending else '') + 'max_val') return (QuerySet, True) Any idea what I am missing here? -

Static method returning empty list in Django

password reset implementation with djoser
I wanted to use djoser for the reset password functionality and as per the documentation " PASSWORD_RESET_CONFIRM_URL URL to your frontend password reset page. It should contain {uid} and {token} placeholders, e.g. #/password-reset/{uid}/{token}. You should pass uid and token to reset password confirmation endpoint. I have done the following: PASSWORD_RESET_CONFIRM_URL': 'reset/password/reset/confirm/{uid}/{token}', url url(r'^reset/password/reset/confirm/(?P<uid>[\w-]+)/(?P<token>[\w-]+)/$', PasswordResetView.as_view(),), View : class PasswordResetView(APIView): def get (self, request, uid, token): post_data = {'uid': uid, 'token': token} return Response(post_data) In my mail I get this link : http://127.0.0.1:8000/reset/password/reset/confirm/Mjk/538-954dccbc1b06171eff4d This is obvious that I will get : { "uid": "Mjk", "token": "538-954dccbc1b06171eff4d" } as my output but I wanted to go to auth/password/reset/confirm when the user clicks the link in the mail. -

Analysing and improving the performance of a query generated by Django's ORM (SORT)
I have a not-so-complex (imho) filtering logic based on several conditions in my Django models. There is one particular query which takes an inusual amount of time to finish. The query is built based on those two querysets: queryset = self.serializer_class.Meta.model.valid_pricelist_objects.filter( Q(drug_prices__pricelist__price_destination__to_all_insurances=True ) | # pylint: disable=line-too-long Q( drug_prices__pricelist__price_destination__to_organization_data__organization__uuid =self.kwargs.get('i_uuid'))) return queryset and return super().get_queryset().filter( Q(active=True), Q(drug_prices__pricelist__active=True), # Lista de precios activa # Q(drug_pictures__is_main=True), # Que tenga una imagen # TODO: Hacer filtros por pais PriceListCountries Q( Q(drug_prices__pricelist__expires=False) | # Que tenga precios que no caducan o Q( Q(drug_prices__pricelist__expires=True), # Que tenga precios que si caducan Y Q(drug_prices__pricelist__datestart__date__lte=timezone.now()), # Fecha de inicio menor que hoy Y Q(drug_prices__pricelist__dateend__date__gte=timezone.now()) # Fecha final mayor que hoy ) ) ).distinct().prefetch_related( 'categories__contexts', 'brands', 'drug_prices__pricelist', 'drug_pictures', 'drug_prices__pricelist__price_destination', ) The second querysets wraps the first one (via the super() call). The resulting query looks like this: SELECT DISTINCT "phdrug_phdrug"."id", "phdrug_phdrug"."uuid", "phdrug_phdrug"."default_description", "phdrug_phdrug"."ean", "phdrug_phdrug"."parent_ean", "phdrug_phdrug"."reg_num", "phdrug_phdrug"."atc_iv", "phdrug_phdrug"."product_type", "phdrug_phdrug"."fraction", "phdrug_phdrug"."active", "phdrug_phdrug"."loyal", "phdrug_phdrug"."patent", "phdrug_phdrug"."chronics", "phdrug_phdrug"."recipe", "phdrug_phdrug"."deal", "phdrug_phdrug"."specialized", "phdrug_phdrug"."armored", "phdrug_phdrug"."hight_speciality", "phdrug_phdrug"."temp_8_15", "phdrug_phdrug"."temp_15_25", "phdrug_phdrug"."temp_2_8", "phdrug_phdrug"."temp_less_15", "phdrug_phdrug"."new", "phdrug_phdrug"."mdk_internal_code", "phdrug_phdrug"."mdk_single_id", "phdrug_phdrug"."is_from_mdk_db", "phdrug_phdrug"."top", "phdrug_phdrug"."laboratory_id", "phdrug_phdrug"."specialty_id" FROM "phdrug_phdrug" INNER JOIN "monetary_drugprice" ON ( "phdrug_phdrug"."id" = "monetary_drugprice"."drug_id" ) INNER JOIN "monetary_pricelist" ON ( "monetary_drugprice"."pricelist_id" = "monetary_pricelist"."id" ) INNER JOIN "monetary_drugprice" T4 ON ( "phdrug_phdrug"."id" = T4."drug_id" ) … -

Gunicorn throws error 403 when accessing static files
python==2.7.5, django==1.11.10, gunicorn==19.7.1, RHEL 7.4 I have a django project at my job written not by me.

Django (DRF) & React - Forbidden (CSRF cookie not set)
There are tens of questions that are essentially identical to the one I'm asking. However, none of their answers seem to be working for me. I have a React front-end where I am using axios to send requests to the back-end. Example const request = await axios.post('${BASE_URL}/logout/') Most of the Django Rest Framework endpoints are made with ViewSets. However, I have a few that are custom and mostly made for authentication. path('createaccount/', views.create_account), path('me/', views.current_user), path('logout/', views.logout), path('login/', views.login), path('resetpassword', views.reset_password), For the development of this project I've included @csrf_exempt above these views because I didn't want to deal with it at the time. Now I'm nearing deployment and it's time to figure it out. Some answers say I need to get a CSRF Token from Django which is stored in cookies and I need to pass that in the header of each request. Some answers say all I need to do is configure axios like axios.defaults.xsrfHeaderName = "X-CSRFTOKEN"; axios.defaults.xsrfCookieName = "XCSRF-TOKEN"; And it will "just work". I've tried adjusting my CSRF_COOKIE_NAME to various values to get this to work too. Some answers even say to keep @csrf_exempt but that sounds like a very, very bad idea. Do I actually … -
