Django Model Initial Form Value based on DB values
I have two models: class ReceiptBook(models.Model): serial_no = models.IntegerField(unique=True) leaf_start = models.IntegerField() leaf_end = models.IntegerField() issued_person = models.ForeignKey(Person) issued_date = models.DateField() status = models.CharField(max_length=15,choices=st,default='IS') class ReceiptLeaf(models.Model): receipt_book = models.ForeignKey(ReceiptBook, limit_choices_to={'status': 'IS'}) receipt_no = models.IntegerField() receipt_date = models.DateField() received_from = models.CharField(max_length=150) kudumba_unit = models.CharField(max_length=20, choices=units) amount = models.DecimalField(max_digits=20, decimal_places=2) In my admin interface I am showing ReceiptLeaf model lnlined with ReceiptBook. Now I want to initialise the value of receipt_no field using the receipt_book field ie; using the value of leaf_start and leaf_end using receipt_book object. I have this function on admin.py: def get_receipt_no(self): receipt = ReceiptLeaf.objects.filter(receipt_book=?) #how to get receipt book object here no = receipt.receipt_no + 1 if not no: no = receipt.receipt_book.leaf_start return no which is used by the formfield_for_dbfield method: def formfield_for_dbfield(self, db_field, **kwargs): field = super(ReceiptLeafInline, self).formfield_for_dbfield(db_field, **kwargs) if db_field.name == 'receipt_no': field.initial = get_receipt_no(self) return field How can I pass receipt_book value to get_receipt_no() function? Since more than one ReceiptLeaf's are associated with one ReceiptBook, I need the receipt_book object to properly initialise the receipt_no field. -
SSL certificate for the ip adress [Nginix+django server]
I have nginix+django server on google cloud virtual machine which is running at a specific port(8080). I am able to access the service by http://external_ip:8080. But I'm not able to access it over "https". I dont have a domain name. For our application it is not necessary as it is just a rest api to perform some tasks. I am relatively new to these terms like ssl certificate, domain name, nginix ... etc. It would be great if someone can help me out. Thanks in advance. -
Merge two QuerySets such that every n-th element will be from the second one
I'm not sure if this can be done using only Django ORM or pure SQL. I have a model Fruit and I want to render a list of fruits such that every and only n-th fruit is of type="apple". So for 4 it would be: any fruit except apple any fruit except apple any fruit except apple apple any fruit except apple any fruit except apple ... I'm looking for a more efficient way to do that than having a huge list of fruits, preferably one QuerySet but not sure if it's even possible. fruits_except_apples = Fruit.objects.exclude(type='apple') apples = Fruit.objects.filter(type='apple') -

Allow only admin to POST data: Django Rest Framework

Django shortcut get_object_or_404 inside Django Rest framework Class Based Views
The get_object_or_404 shortcut function in Django when encountering an exception gives a very nice error message in the following format: 'No %s matches the given query.' % queryset.model._meta.object_name) However, while using this inside a DRF 3.X Class based view, the final 404 response data has a very stripped down version, which is as follows: {"detail": "Not found."} As is evident, the DRF message is very generic with no information about the Model name.I am assuming that the DRF NotFound Exception class defined here strips down the message to its current bare minimum. How can I get the original nice error message that Django returns in-spite of using it within a DRF Class Based View ? -
Django app throws MigrationSchemaMissing when migrating to heroku MySQL ClearDB
So I have built a simple app using MySQL instead of SQlite and everything migrates nicely when I deploy on localhost, the localhost DB settings look like this: # DATABASES = { # 'default': { # 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql', # 'NAME': 'news', # 'USER': 'myname', # 'PASSWORD': 'my_password', # 'HOST': 'localhost', # 'PORT': '', # # } # } But I change the settings to the following for deploying to heroku using the ClearDB addon: DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql', 'NAME': 'heroku_db_dbname', 'USER': 'heroku_db_username', 'PASSWORD': 'heroku_db_password', 'HOST': 'us-cdbr-iron-east-01.cleardb.net', 'PORT': '3306', } } With heroku_db_name, heroku_db_username and heroku_db_password being the actual values from heroku obviously. The app deploys just fine minus the DB and I can makemigrations with no issues but once I run python manage.py migrate I get a MigrationSchemaMissing exception, more specifically: django.db.migrations.exceptions.MigrationSchemaMissing: Unable to create the django_migrations table ((1064, "You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '(6) NOT NULL)' at line 1")) I'm not sure how there can be a syntax error since all the SQL is generated by django and all of it works fine on my local … -
Django static files not loading, though the correct links show in view source
Static files located at top level of project not loading correctly in Django 2.1.3. When I do a view source of the page the path is correct and i can click on the link, showing me that, indeed, the content is there. Inspecting the page, however, shows no stylesheets are loaded. Its a standard dev setup. The only factors that could be contributing are that i had to reinstall django and just straight replaced the basic new project folder with a copy of my project. The admin page seems to work ok along with the rest of the code, so the entire world didnt break. The only other change was installing SASS and trying to integrate Bootstrap 4 at a local level (not messing with the standard folder layout). Wont work with the compiled SASS css (Interestingly, when i viewed the link in the source the changes were present) or any other simple hand written css. Static JS is also broken. The links and code seem ok in source, just not loading. -
how to auto populate Django Rest Framework Model fields
Trying to auto populate model attributes using Django rest framework Intro: I have 2 models Patient and Embryo There is only 1 user who is the superuser. All patients belong to the superuser. One patient can have many embryos but an embryo can have only one patient. What I want to achieve The Embryo model has a field called karyotes which is a Charfield. when the user inputs the karyotes the sex of the embryo is auto-populated. The same with down-syndrome (see models below example) Example (This is not code, just explanation ) if karyotype == "46,XX" #The embryo is a Female if karyotype == "46,XY" #The embryo is a Male if karyotype == "47,XY,+21" #The embryo is a Male and has Down Syndrome if karyotype == "47,XX,+21" #The embryo is a Female and has Down Syndrome else sex == blank and down syndrome == blank Below are my models class PatientsApiView(viewsets.ModelViewSet): """ Handles Creating, reading and updating Patients """ class Embryo(models.Model): """ A ForeignKey model to the patient """ patient = models.ForeignKey(Patient, related_name="embryos", on_delete=models.CASCADE) code_name = models.CharField(max_length=100) karyotype = models.CharField(max_length=100) down_syndrome = models.BooleanField(blank=True, null=True) created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) updated_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) GENDER_CHOICES = ( ("M", "Male"), ("F", "Female"), ) sex … -
django channels ImproperlyConfigured: Cannot find 'app' in ASGI_APPLICATION module
I've looked at similar questions regarding this error setting up channels messaging with django. I am worried that this is a redis problem as the tutorial I am following states that "This tutorial also uses Docker to install and run Redis. We use Redis as the backing store for the channel layer, which is an optional component of the Channels library" but nowhere in the tutorial https://channels.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorial/part_1.html from parts 1-4 state where redis is required. I may be way off track but am wondering if anyone has new information regarding this error configuring channels with Django. "Cannot find %r in ASGI_APPLICATION module %s" % (name, path) django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Cannot find 'app' in ASGI_APPLICATION module .routing thanks -
How does django jwt sign the jwt token?
When using https://github.com/GetBlimp/django-rest-framework-jwt, how is the JWT request signed?

Is there a way to provide a provide a private key file for this, or what are the requirements for singing the jwt request? -
Caching a DB connection for later view usage
I am saving a user's database connection. On the first time they enter in their credentials, I do something like the following: self.conn = MySQLdb.connect ( host = 'aaa', user = 'bbb', passwd = 'ccc', db = 'ddd', charset='utf8' ) cursor = self.conn.cursor() cursor.execute("SET NAMES utf8") cursor.execute('SET CHARACTER SET utf8;') cursor.execute('SET character_set_connection=utf8;') I then have the conn ready to go for all the user's queries. However, I don't want to re-connect every time the view is loaded. How would I store this "open connection" so I can just do something like the following in the view: def do_queries(request, sql): user = request.user conn = request.session['conn'] cursor = request.session['cursor'] cursor.execute(sql) Would there be a way to save the conn and cursor in some sort of format so that I can call them later and use them in a successive view call? Would doing request.session['conn'] = conn work? Or do I need to serialize this in a special way? -
Django/DRF: ListCreateAPIView POST with an annotated field that's in serializer not model
I'm building a simple budgeting app to work on learning Django & React. I've used DRF to build an API to create and get transactions from the database. I'm currently calculating the total running balance on the fly when I do my GET. This has been working well, but when I do a POST I get an error that my dynamic balance field is required since that field is in my serializer. How can I get around this? views.py class CreateView(generics.ListCreateAPIView): """This class defines the GET & POST behavior of the rest api.""" queryset = Transaction.objects.all() # This is the balance that's calculated on the fly queryset_with_balance = queryset.annotate(balance=Window(Sum('amount'), order_by=F('created_time').asc())).all().order_by('-created_time') serializer_class = TransactionSerializer def perform_create(self, serializer): """Save the post data when creating a new transaction.""" serializer.save() def get_queryset(self): return self.queryset_with_balance serializers.py class TransactionSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): balance = serializers.DecimalField(decimal_places=2, max_digits=19) class Meta: """Meta class to map serializer's fields with the model fields.""" model = Transaction fields = ('id', 'date', 'payee', 'category', 'amount', 'balance', 'created_time', 'modified_time') models.py class Transaction(models.Model): date = models.DateField() payee = models.CharField(max_length=256) category = models.CharField(max_length=256) amount = MoneyField(max_digits=19, decimal_places=2, default_currency='USD') created_time = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) modified_time = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) -

Django Error Styling with Twitter Bootstrap
I am trying to style errors using twitter bootstrap in my Django project. Right now, I have a simple form that asks for a person's email address, has them press a button, and then submits it to the database. It also has validation checking to see if the email is unique in the database. If it is not unique, it raises an error saying "This email is already registered". However, when the error is raised, for a duplicate email, it brings an ugly bullet point list next to the input field with the text This email is already registered. I'm trying to style it to where it has a little dialog show under the input text with a yellow i icon like it does when the input does not include an @ sign, i.e. it isn't an email. The ugly bullet point also appears when a valid domain isn't included in the email, e.g. there isn't a .com appended. I think the problem lies with the way my form html is set up, or how the view handles the form's errors. Maybe, because the form field is an EmailField, the is_valid indicator doesn't validate and therefore shows the twitter bootstrap … -
Django Forms - ModelChoiceField remains ----- on Bound form
So, here's my situation: I have an existing database, and a model for an item. The item has a integer primary key and then a name as a string. When I prepopulate my form corresponding to this, all other fields contain data properly. This one shows its available list of options, but the initial value is not set to the ID I passed in. I know the ID exists, as it's presently a very simple database. Can I get some help? The field doesn't throw an error like if I intentionally pass a bad value, so I know that it's "accepting" the prepopulated value in some way but I cannot get the form itself to show this as its default selection. I would think this easy to do, but I have searched for several hours now and nobody touches on it? -
Django 2.1 Filtering Blog Posts by Publish Date
I just built a model manager to handle adjust filter my queryset to exclude future published posts (publish > timezone.now.date) and posts where Post.draft=True. class PostManager(models.Manager): def active(self, *args, **kwargs): return super(PostManager, self).filter(draft=False).filter(publish__lte=timezone.now().date()) I am able to handle for the draft boolean field in my views and my templates. I.e., if a superuser is viewing the post app index page (list of posts), I can see a header tag indicating it is a draft: template for post list page: <div class="card-body"> {% if post.draft %}<h3>Staff Only: Draft</h3>{% endif %} {% if instance.publish > today %}<h3>Staff Only: Future Post</h3>{% endif %} Here is my view.py for my function based list view --- you'll see "today" (from above) as a context variable: def post_view(request): template_name = 'posts/index.html' today = timezone.now().date() queryset_list = Post.objects.active() if request.user.is_staff or request.user.is_superuser: queryset_list = Post.objects.all() paginator = Paginator(queryset_list, 5) page = request.GET.get('page') queryset = paginator.get_page(page) context = { 'post_list': queryset, 'today': today, } return render(request, template_name, context) I am curious as to why I am able to handle for(exclude from public view) posts where draft is set to True, but not for posts where publish > timezone.now().date() with the code I have.

Django Rest Framework + Angular 2
I new to the web development. Right now, I am using Angular 2 as front-end and Django-Rest-framework as back-end. While browsing the tutorials online, people often build the angular2 app (ng build) and then place those built files under the django project. But my question is, doesn't this approach defeat the purpose of decoupling? Can you provide me the pros and cons of these two approaches? Ask Django to host the built angular project, and deploy it as one instance. Separate both frontend and backend, and deploy them as two instances. Thanks in advance. -
How to search for values in Redis with redis for python
I'm currently trying to search for entries inside my Redis that match a specific value through an HTTP API the same way you'd do with a regular DB (eg: http://localhost:8000/api?name=John&age=20) with the redis python library (https://pypi.org/project/redis/). The code I have thus far returns the whole hash, converts each entry into a JSON and adds it to a list import json import redis import os r = redis.StrictRedis(host=os.environ['redis_url'], port=os.environ['redis_port'], password=os.environ['redis_pass'], ssl=True) result = r.hgetall('Directory') dic_list = [] for key in result.keys(): dic_list.append(json.loads(result[key].decode('utf-8'))) return dic_list I know that I can get the value of a specific key with r.hget('Directory', 'key_I_want') However inside each key there is a whole JSON full with information, so for example this would be a key, value example inside of the Directory hash "1": { "name": "James", "age": "22", "favorite_color":"Green" }, "2":{ "name":"John", "age": "20", "favorite_color": "red" }, "3":{ "name":"Jim", "age": "30", "favorite_color": "yellow" } So I know r.hget('Directory', '1') would return { "name": "James", "age": "22", "favorite_color":"Green" } But what I really want is to look for every JSON that has specific values, not just to get the values of each key inside the hash, is there any way to actually do that? -
