How to access objects of grandparent model associated with target model through ContentType GenericForeignKey?
I'm trying to filter objects of model based on associated grandparent model. They are associated with each other through an intermediary parent model. Parent model is associated with grandparent through ContentType GenericForeignKey. How can I access all objects of target model sharing same Grandparent. I tried to use GenericRelations on Grandparent but it did not work as it returns all the Parent Objects associated with that GrandParent Model. For that, I've to loop through querysets. Please check the code for details: class State(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=25) population = models.PositiveIntegerField() class UnionTerritory(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=25) population = models.PositiveIntegerField() class District(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=25) content_type = models.ForeignKey(ContentType,on_delete=models.CASCADE) object_id = models.PositiveIntegerField() content_object = GenericForeignKey('content_type','object_id') population = models.PositiveIntegerField() class Town(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=25) district = models.ForeignKey(District,related_name='towns',on_delete=models.CASCADE) population = models.PositiveIntegerField() """Here, District can be connected to State or UnionTerritory but town will always be part of district.""" Now, if I select any State or UnionTerritory Object; I want to have access to all towns under it. I want to filter all Town instances who share same State or UnionTerritory. Towns can be connected to different districts which belong to same state or same UnionTerritory. How can I access UnionTerritory or State associated with Town and … -
Django Apps aren't loaded yet: How to import models
I have a Django project looking like > project > gui > __init__.py > models.py > views.py > ... > project __init__.py ... I am trying to sync the sqllite db in django with some info I periodically query from other sources. So in project.init.py I spawn a thread that periodically queries data. However, I am having trouble accessing my models from there and update the database, because when I try to import them into init.py from gui.models import GuiModel I get django.core.exceptions.AppRegistryNotReady: Apps aren't loaded yet. Is there a trick to do that or a different way to create a separate thread? -
Django: Annotate aggregation of filtered related set
I'm looking for a way to annotate value of aggregated filtered related set. class Location(... ... class Ticket(... location = ForeignKey(Location...) date = ... price = ... I need to annotate maximal price of ticket in a daterange. So if I set only last 30 days, it returns me all Location objects and every object have 'max_price' annotation which equals to maximal price of the tickets from last 30 days. Tickets: <Ticket France 100 now-50days> <Ticket France 200 now-20days-> <Ticket France 300 now-20days> <Ticket Austria 200 now-10days> <Ticket Austria 50 now-10days> In this case, queryset returns: <Location France> + annotated 200 <Location Austria> + annotated 50 Is it possible to do it in one Query? -
Django - Form Does Not Save User Values
I currently have a form on the “myaccount.html” page of my web application. This form renders how I want however I cannot submit the form values for some reason to appear in the django admin. When a user hits “submit”, the page refreshes and the values stay in the input fields. I’ve tried many methods to solve this but no luck. I thought I had everything together but maybe I’m missing something somewhere? Is there anything I’m missing to resolve this issue? I’m new to Django so any help is gladly appreciated.

What is the purpose of setting a variable in self.send for Django Channels?
In Django Channels tutorial, you set a variable called 'text_message'. This is for the consumer to echo the message that it has received. def receive(self, text_data): text_data_json = json.loads(text_data) message = text_data_json['message'] self.send(**text_data**=json.dumps({ 'message': message })) What is the use of 'text_message'? I have removed it so that it looks like this, and still successfully rendered the message in my HTML. def receive(self, text_data): text_data_json = json.loads(text_data) message = text_data_json['message'] self.send(json.dumps({ 'message': message })) -

Download a file with selenium on Heroku
I am attempting to download a file from a link, parse the file, then save specific data to my heroku database. I have successfully set up my selenium chrome webdriver and I am able to log in. Normally, when I get the url, it begins downloading automatically. I have set up a new directory for the file to be saved to on heroku. It does not appear to be here or anywhere. I have tried different methods of setting the download directory, other methods of logging in to the website, and have functionally done it locally, but not in heroku production. # importing libraries from selenium import webdriver from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By import time import datetime from datetime import timedelta import os import json import csv # temporary credentials to later be stored # as env vars user = "user" psw = "pasw" account = 'account' # this is the directory to download the file file_directory = os.path.abspath('files') # making this directory the default chrome web driver directory options = webdriver.ChromeOptions() prefs = { "download.default_directory": file_directory } options.add_experimental_option('prefs',prefs) # setting up web driver driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options) # logging in to pinterest url_login … -
What is the easiest way to tag user-submitted questions with category tags on a Django-base site?
I am building a site in Django where users submit questions about a wide range of topics. When a question is submitted, I would like it to be tagged with the various categories to which it belongs so it can be grouped with related questions. For example, if someone asks "does breastfeeding increase the risk of cancer?", I want that question tagged with categories like "child care, breastfeeding, cancer, etc". I understand that categorizing content is a common issue and I am curious what the best options are. -
DRF: Built-in way to group fields in Serializer?
Is there a built-in way to group fields in Serializer/ModelSerializer or to modify JSON structure? There is a Location model: class Location(Model): name_en = ... name_fr = ... ... If I use ModelSerializer I get plain representation of the object fields like: {'name_en':'England','name_fr':'Angleterre'} I want to group some fields under "names" key so I get {'names':{'name_en':'England','name_fr':'Angleterre'}} I know I can create custom fields but I want to know if there is a more straightforward way. I tried Meta.fields = {'names':['name_en','name_fr']...} which doesn't work -
Can't understand WebAuthn API error from JavaScript
I am currently building out an AJAX registration endpoint for Django to allow for FIDO2 authentication (physical hardware key login). This is from following the example/documentation from Yubico's official fido2 python library. The only dependencies are cbor.js and js-cookie. Everything server-side is working for now, however, I keep getting this JavaScript error while invoking the navigator.credentials.create method TypeError: Failed to execute 'create' on 'CredentialsContainer': The provided value is not of type '(ArrayBuffer or ArrayBufferView)' The code: var csrftoken = Cookies.get('csrftoken'); fetch('/register/begin', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'X-CSRFToken': csrftoken } }).then(function(response) { if(response.ok) { return response.arrayBuffer(); } throw new Error('Error getting registration data!'); }).then(CBOR.decode).then(function(options) { console.log(options) //This line is not working return navigator.credentials.create(options); //More code... complete registration... I can't figure this out. Do you know whats wrong? Thanks! -
Django: How to correct created date/time
I've a model Order, that has a field created. It's intention is to show when the order took place (date and time speaking). I'm using this line to create the field in the model: current_time = datetime.datetime.now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') However, the reviewing it from admin panel, it shows It was created in the future: 10:52 pm of 27/12.

Auto fill form field in html with data value and make it read only
I'm in process of creating a page where you can add a customer with some information regarding to them. I want to assign an unique id for each customer. I of course type in the basic information myself, but I also need a field in the form that has been populated with a generated random id, that has been checked in the database if it already exists.

Make django display non-jinja element while waiting for it to be completed
So here's what I'm trying to do. Let's say I have a really long function that takes some time to process. Eventually, the output needs to be displayed on a webpage. I'm using Python 3.6 and Django 2 framework. views.py from django.shortcuts import render import time def f(): time.sleep(5) return [5,6,7] def index(request): return render(request,'homepage/page.html', {'funcF':f}) So as you can see, I have a function that waits for 5 seconds to pass before returning an array of numbers. homepage/page.html <p> Hello there! </p> {% for r in funcF %} <p> {{r}} </p> {% endfor %} My goal is that I want Hello there! to be displayed and wait for 5 seconds to pass, then display the numbers in the array. In it's current state, the webpage instead takes 5 seconds to reload, and it displays both Hello there! and the numbers on the array all at once. Any bright ideas? -
How to pass a string with slashes from view to template?

Getting seconds from a timer function to my view
I want to get the minutes and seconds from the timer in my template to my view. I already tried different approaches with an ajax.post request but it didnt really work how I wanted it to be. Here is my template: {% block content %} <!-- Timer function --> <script type="text/javascript"> var sec = 0; function pad ( val ) { return val > 9 ? val : "0" + val; } setInterval( function(){ $("#seconds").html(pad(++sec%60)); $("#minutes").html(pad(parseInt(sec/60,10))); }, 1000); </script> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <span id="minutes"></span>:<span id="seconds"></span> <form action="results" id=results method="POST"> <!-- after clicking on this button the minutes and seconds should also be sent as a POST request --> <div class="command"> <button type="submit" name="ctest_submit">Submit solution</button> </div> </form> {% endblock %} Now I want to get the minutes and seconds to my view as a POST request after clicking on the submit button. My idea was it to hide the time in a input like this: <input type="hidden" name="seconds" value="what should be in here???"> but I dont know what should be in value? -

Django MPTT: Rebuild tree in migrations file
I already have a model in my project that I now want to use with django-mptt. This model already has some data in it. During migrations, you are asked to set default values for some of the fields django-mptt creates. As directed in the documentation, I set 0 as the one off default value. The documentation goes ahead and recommends running Model.objects.rebuild() after this is done to set the correct values in the fields. I would like to perform this operation via my migrations files. I do NOT want to run this via my django-shell as this is not a one off operation. My migration files is so: # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- # Generated by Django 1.11.16 on 2018-12-27 17:33 from __future__ import unicode_literals from django.db import migrations, models def migrate_mptt(apps, schema_editor): ProductCategory = apps.get_model("product", "ProductCategory") ProductCategory.objects.rebuild() class Migration(migrations.Migration): dependencies = [ ('product', '0016_auto_20181227_2303'), ] operations = [ migrations.RunPython(migrate_mptt), ] On migration, I receive the error AttributeError: 'Manager' object has no attribute 'rebuild'. The same command works perfectly in the shell, of course. I need to do this via migrations since I want this operation to be run automatically every time my project is deployed. -
