how to use django-rest-framework to implement a method that can authenticate users and paginate
I saw some ways to implement paging with drf on the Internet.For example, the following method： def get(self, request, format=None): roles = Product.objects.all() pg = PageNumberPagination() page_roles = pg.paginate_queryset(queryset=roles, request=request, view=self) ser = ProductSerializer(instance=page_roles, many=True) return Response(ser.data, status=HTTP_200_OK) But this method only accepts a single number page number in the request query parameters.I hope this method can accept parameters about user information in order to authenticate user rights. -
Does Django Channels uses ws:// protocol prefix to route between Django view or Channels app?
I am running Django + Channels server using Daphne. Daphne server is behind Nginx. My Nginx config looks like as given at end. When I try to connect to ws://example.com/ws/endpoint I am getting NOT FOUNT /ws/endpoint error. For me, it looks like Daphne is using protocol to route to either Django views or Channels app. If it sees http it routes to Django view and when it sees ws it routes to Channels app. With following Nginx proxy pass configuration the URL always has http protocol prefix. So I am getting 404 or NOT FOUND in logs. If I change proxy_pass prefix to ws Nginx config fails. What is the ideal way to setup Channels in the this scenario? server { listen 443 ssl; server_name example.com location / { # prevents 502 bad gateway error proxy_buffers 8 32k; proxy_buffer_size 64k; # redirect all HTTP traffic to localhost:8088; proxy_pass http://0.0.0.0:8000/; proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; proxy_set_header Host $http_host; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; #proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true; # enables WS support proxy_http_version 1.1; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade"; proxy_read_timeout 999999999; } } -

While sorting: '<' not supported between instances of 'NoneType' and 'str'
I am trying to remove all duplicate and null elements of an array, then sorting it. cities = [js.city for js in company_jscollects] filter(None, cities) cities_unique = list(sorted(set(cities))) But then I got this error: Django Version: 2.0.4 Exception Type: TypeError Exception Value: '<' not supported between instances of 'NoneType' and 'str' Exception Location: D:..\views.py in dashboard_analytics, line 175 Line 175 being the one including the sorted function.

How can I update the photo each second in my django template?
everyone. I am pretty new with django. There is a particular position to show the photo in my django template, and the photo should be updated each second. How can I do that?

I only know how to return a html with a url request, but how can I update a particular item in that html without a new url request? -
Django App on Chrome - Very Slow Performance
I'm desperate posting this question here as I'm having problems that I cannot solve with Django and Chrome. For some reason, which I have not been able to identify, my Django app on the development server as well as the production server gets slowed down by up to 50 times after a while of use (maybe 5 minutes or so). The only thing that 'resets' it back to normal is if I close Chrome, open Chrome, and open the website again. Restarting the development/production server does not work. Closing and reopening the website tab in Chrome does not work. I have a feeling that Chrome is the problem here as I think I've noticed similar issues while browsing StackOverflow. I know of the Django performance issues guide: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/topics/performance/ However note that my database is barely populated with anything so it is definitely not a Django performance issue. There is something else going on here. Any idea where to start with fault finding? Thanks for your help -

sessionid gets deleted from the cookie after browser redirection through SAML authentication - Python/Django
I have a Python/Django web based application hosted in production. The application needs SSO login to get redirected to our application. I'm using SAML authentication process for the logging of users. I have written a django middleware to capture the "sessionid" from the cookie after successful login to display user details in my application homepage. The sessionid is being seen in the browser cookie after successful login but once it gets completely redirected to my application it goes off. Due to this i couldn't able to capture the sessionid from the request.COOKIES after browser refresh/navigation. I'm also storing a session key in request.session to display the user details unless it's a new request/session expiry. But for the next time page refresh, the session is gone. Is there a way where i can store the sessionid after first time login? -

Update the PostgreSQL Database every hour via python script or using django models?
I am setting a web server based on Django Framework with PostgreSQL. I need to update the models in my Django app every hour and I am wondering if is it better way to update the database from another script file using python and psycopg2 or using script that directly connects to Django models and update them using Django API for models? I use this Database only in Django web server. Summarizing... What is better logic? update_db.py that contains: connect to database via psycopg2, update the tables update_db.py that contains: connect to Django app models, update them using Django API for models I will run script every hour using Cron, and the Django Project is already connected to that specific database and it works fine. I am just asking for better performance and better way in logic sense. Data won't be updated very often but it would have big jsons. -

Can't get form data in view function: Django
I need to submit a string to a view function via a dropdown menu and submit button. in my template I have: <form action="{% url 'exec_task' %}" method="post"> {% csrf_token %} <select id="select_task" form="select_task" name="select_task"> {% for task in available_tasks %} <option id="selected_task" value="{{ task }}">{{ task }}</option> {% endfor %} </select> <input class="button" type="submit" value="Run Selected Task"> </form> in my view function I have: def exec_task(request): if request.method == 'POST': task = request.POST.get('select_task') print(task) getattr(tasks, task)(0) return redirect('management') The print(task) always comes out as None, which generates an error when I try to call it via getattr in the next line. I've read through all the questions and tutorials I can find on this and I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but when I print the request.POST object, all I get is the csrf token. The QueryDict has nothing else in it. Any ideas?
