Is it possible to use Redis Cloud in Django Channel
Currently I am trying to create DRF (Django REST Framework) project and deploying it on Heroku. Now recently I thought of adding Django channel and see how well it works so for that I did all the local configuration but at the same time I am planning to deploy it on Heroku. My DRF project is already deployed but for Django Channel I need to add 1 configuration which is Redis but now Heroku is asking for Credit Card info to add it. I know it's not a big of a deal but for me as a student I can't afford that right now. So my question is that, is it possible to have different Redis service hosted at different place and then I can provide the URL in my settings.py as: CHANNEL_LAYERS = { 'default': { 'BACKEND': 'channels_redis.core.RedisChannelLayer', 'CONFIG': { "hosts": [('redis://:' + config('REDIS_PASSWORD') + '@<redis-url>', 17566)], }, }, } I thought I can do something from here by using Redis Cloud Host feature. I am not well knowledgeable on how these technology works that's why I am trying my best to understand it. Sorry if it sounds stupid -
how to integrate django app model with variables in other python file?
I am new in making RESTful API, the goal is to make a RESTful API using django that can be access with flutter, the information that will be converted into JSON format by serializer.py is from variables that are processed in other script in python. how to add the variable into the API? is it added in model.py? or maybe using POST method?

Volume to share files from docker container to host in elastic beanstalk single container
I'm trying to share the static files from my container to the host so that nginx can serve them. This is on AWS elastic beanstalk using the Docker single container platform. I have verified that the static files have been generated in the container, however the files are not found in the host directory. The project is otherwise working fine, deployed with eb deploy. Can someone tell me where did I go wrong? Thanks!

IntegrityError at /new_topic/ NOT NULL constraint failed: learning_logs_topic.owner_id
I am setting topics to have its user owner. But I wonder can I add a new_topic that does not have an owner by setting Null=True to some field? class Topic(models.Model): text = models.CharField(max_length=200) date_added = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) owner = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE) def __str__(self): return self.text @login_required def new_topic(request): if request.method != 'POST': form = TopicForm() else: form = TopicForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): form.save() The error said: Not NULL constraint failed. I know the solution as I changed form.save() to the following by set the new_topic with an owner: new_topic = form.save(commit=False) new_topic.owner = request.user new_topic.save() I cleaned all codes snippets having .owner suffix. I was guessing the problem is because as I Forignkey topic owner with User class, the User class now has a topic attribute(field) that sets Null = False by default So any new_topic should have a user as its owner. Here's what I did: class Topic(models.Model): text = models.CharField(max_length=200) date_added = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) owner = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True) def __str__(self): return self.text However, I still get the same error.. I guess that because ForeignKey field dose not support Null = True? or I wonder should I change User's topic field rather than Topic's owner field? if so How should … -

Uploading multiple files using Dropzone.js and Django, file uploading not working
Uploading a single file is working with Dropzone.js and Django but when I set uploadMultiple to true, it even cannot upload files. How can I handle this? In models, file = models.FileField(upload_to='upload/'); In forms, file = forms.FileField(widget=forms.ClearableFileInput(attrs={'multiple': True})) The errors are arising.. if request.method == 'POST': files = request.FILES.getlist('file') print(files) <-- prints [] ,not any files form = PostForm(request.POST, request.FILES) if form.is_valid(): <-- not valid It worked with the single upload case, even it looked like sending multiple files but it processed each file one by one. With the uploadMultiple set, not working. Any sugestions? -
How to return JSON response in Django's HttpResponseServerError?
I am writing a python Django application where I am returning error HttpResponseServerError. I also need to return some json data that i can get a message from and show to the user in my front end.

Is there a way to convert strings containing numbers to integers in Python? [duplicate]
This question already has an answer here: Python: Extract numbers from a string 13 answers I have a Postgres 10 database with a column I need to execute queries against in Django. This column age_data, is of the charField type and the raw data is either an empty string i.e. '' or in the pattern 'XX Years'. Ultimately I'd like to return records based on conditions where a user's age is greater/less than the values in column age_data but I can't compare them numerically because age_data is formatted as a string data type. Basically I need the first two digits isolated, any ideas for this? Thanks for any help! I've tried converting the first two digits of age_data to a substring then an integer like below but received the error: "int() argument must be a string, a bytes-like object or a number, not 'Substr'" I've tried casting age_data as an integer with no avail either. Sample code of the method I was testing. Test = Substr('65 Years', 1, 2) print int(Test) I expected the output of the above to be 65 so I could use numerical conditional statements afterwards. -

Dropzone.js and Django file uploading - form.save works but no files showing
I am using Dropzone.js to upload files and process them in Django.

What is happening here? -
Django: How do I pass in a context of a model nested within another via a ForeignKey?
I have the following models: class Crisis(models.Model): general = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, on_delete=models.CASCADE) name = models.CharField(max_length=30) class Plan(models.Model): description = models.CharField(max_length=30) engage = models.BooleanField(default=True) crisis = models.ForeignKey(Crisis, on_delete=models.CASCADE) What I would like to do is display all the Crisis, filtering by some query, and all the Plan with the same Crisis underneath. So somehow to pass in a CrisisList context such that I could do as follows (please excuse the pseudo-Django): {% if CrisisList %} {% for crisis in CrisisList %} {{ crisis.name }} {% for plan in CrisisList.PlanList %} {{ plan.description }} {{ plan.engage }} {% endfor %} {% endfor %} {% endif %} What might work in another setting is create a QuerySet from Plans (or maybe in this one?), but for UI reasons I want all the Plans with the same Crisis ForeignKey to be displayed together (say under a <div class="container">).

Contenttype Django + Angular 4

Best approach for django-celery-twisted powered GPS tracking system
I'm currently working on developing a GPS tracking system and my configuration is the following: React for the web display. Django with django-rest-framework for the api to query the database. Twisted to listen to TCP port and receive GPS data. Celery to save the data from twisted to DB asynchronously. Redis to transfer data from Twisted to Celery. I have always work with python so, as you can see, that is my primary choise. This approach is kinda working but I'm affraid that maybe it will not going to be scalable. Already got 5 GPS but only one is reporting, I'm trying to find out the reason, but that not the question. Does somebody know a better approach using python? It's this a common pattern? I'm worried about the "Twisted - Redis - Celery" part. -

What is a good DRF Serializer design for flexibility
I've read a lot of similar topics and I know there are a number of ways that would accomplish the goal, but I'm wondering if anybody has an opinion on this one. Problem Statement My application has two primarily types of users. Customers and Staff members. When retrieving data from an endpoint, it is not uncommon for customers to see viewer fields than staff. In addition, data from a list view generally has fewer fields than that of a retrieve. Solution? Create a serializer for each method, as well for each user type. For example, in an /orders endpoint I may have up to 8 different serializers OrdersListStaffSerializer OrdersListCustSerializer OrdersRetrieveStaffSerializer.... etc Then I can simply choose the proper serializer for the condition. PROS Seems like good flexibility in being able to control exactly who can see what, and also what data they are allowed to write. CONS Feels like there could be a lot of duplication of effort. Lacks the ability to have a finer grain control of data based on permissions. Wondering if anybody has had any experience following this type of design and if it has worked well or become too cumbersome to maintain. Thanks! -

I am trying to write a generic urlpatterns entry in urls.py that would replace hardcoded entries, as below: path('apple/', RedirectView.as_view(url='/apple/abc/'), name='apple_redirect'), path('orange/', RedirectView.as_view(url='/orange/def/'), name='orange_redirect'), path('banana/', RedirectView.as_view(url='/banana/ghi/'), name='banana_redirect'), The model called fruits holds the following data: name = 'apple' url = 'apple/abc/' name = 'orange' url = '/orange/def/' name = 'banana' url = '/banana/ghi/' I would like to avoid the need for manual addition of another path in case new entry in fruits model is added.
