I'm struggling to show on a webpage some model objects I created from the admin pages on my site. I combed through the relevant django tutorial page, and used this as my guide for writing my view: def index(request): latest_question_list = Question.objects.order_by('-pub_date')[:5] output = ', '.join([q.question_text for q in latest_question_list]) return HttpResponse(output) Though I didn't understand the third line so left it out.

Creating url out of user's choices from the form. Django gives NoReverseMatch, saying i need at least two arguments and i have none
So basically i have form on my homepage that asks users to choose two cities : where they are now, and where they want to go. I display all the available options with ModelChoiceField() easily, but when i try to use user's choices to make arguments for url, i get NoReverseMatch. I did a little research and found out due to the fact that at the time when page is loaded, user hasn't chosen anything, so there are no arguments. After that, i took different approach - i tried to set /search/ as url for the form. There, i extracted user's choices and tried to redirect back to the main url with these two arguments. Error still persists Reverse for 'route' with arguments '('', '')' not found. Here's my forms.py : class RouteForm(forms.Form): location = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=Location.objects.all()) destination = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=Destination.objects.all()) Here's my template : <p> From where to where ? </p> <form action="{% url 'listings:search' %}" method="POST"> {{ form.as_p }} {% csrf_token %} <input type="submit" value="Let's go!"> </form> My urls.py : urlpatterns = [ path('', views.index, name="index"), path('<location>/<destination>', views.route, name="route"), path('search/', views.search, name="search") ] and views.py : def index(request): form = forms.RouteForm() listings = Listing.objects.all() context = {"listings" : listings, "form" … -
Django Haystack user-specific ordering
I have a large set of Articles. For each pair of User and Article I have a Recommendation that stores a custom score (and some other data). #----- models.py ----- class Article(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=255, unique=True) abstract = models.TextField() journal = models.CharField(max_length=255) authors = models.TextField() pubdate = models.DateField(db_index=True) class Recommendation(models.Model): user = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, on_delete=models.CASCADE) article = models.ForeignKey(Article, on_delete=models.CASCADE) score = models.FloatField(db_index=True) # some other fields ... class Meta: # Order descending by score ordering = ["-score"] I'm using Haystack and Solr to provide fulltext search on my articles. However what I want to display to the users are their recommendations filtered by the search. Therefore I am not interested in Solr's result ranking. I want to order the results based on my custom recommendation-score. The problem is that this custom score depends on the user. This means I can't add it to the article index, since it's not a single value but rather as many scores as there are users. My current solution: # Get the searched articles sqs = SearchQuerySet().auto_query(query).load_all() # Load the keys to all returned articles result_keys = sqs.values_list('pk', flat=True) # Get all recommendations belonging to these keys and this user recommendations = Recommendation.objects.filter(user=self.request.user, article__in=result_keys).select_related('article') # Setup … -

Django FileResponse - How to speed up file download
I have a setup that lets users download files that are stored in the DB as BYTEA data. Everything works OK, except the download speed is very slow...it seems to download in 33KB chunks, one chunk per second. Is there a setting I can specify to speed this up? views.py from django.http import FileResponse def getFileResponse(filedata, filename, filesize, contenttype): response = FileResponse(filedata, content_type=contenttype) response['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment; filename=%s' % filename response['Content-Length'] = filesize return response return getFileResponse( filedata = myfile.filedata, # Binary data from DB filename = myfile.filename + myfile.fileextension, filesize = myfile.filesize, contenttype = myfile.filetype ) Previously, I had the binary data returned as an HttpResponse and it downloaded like a normal file, with normal speeds. This worked fine locally, but when I pushed to Heroku, it wouldn't download the file -- instead displaying <Memory at XXX> in the download file. And another side issue...when I include a text file with non-ASCII data (i.e. á), I get an error as well: UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters...: ordinal not in range(128) How can I handle files with unicode data? Thanks. -

Django uggetext as __ instead of _ breaks makemessages
I just came across a weird bug (?) where I initially had from django.utils.translation import ugettext as _ Which I changed for from django.utils.translation import ugettext as __ But, surprisingly, running ./manage.py makemessages --all after doing that breaks all translations, they basically get all commented in my .po files, as if they weren't recognized as being translations anymore. Going back to _ and running makemessages fixes it. I don't quite follow why the name of the variable matters, and I wonder how I should name my ugettext and ugettext_lazy when I need both, for consistency. -
spacy 2.0.12 / thinc 6.10.3 crashing django on heroku

add search bar to django website
I am using Django to make a website which includes a basic search bar. This search bar simply takes the word(s) entered by the user and returns several search results (Posts), on the same page, that are relevant to the search instead of the default results, ordered by date.

Is it bad practice to call model on controller (view) in django?
The question is not only about django though...I know the MVC mantra that claims that controllers should be thin and models fat. But speaking of the case I'm dealing with right now. I neeed to do such a simple thing as get an object from the DB by its id which means I have to use something like MyModel.objects.get(id=object_id), I would like to put this code into MyView (read controller) but I'm not sure if it's a good idea. On the other hand serializers are for serializing/deserializing data and all calls to models should be inside views. Is it right? -

In my Python- django app, I have to insert atleast 10 Lac records, 15 columns each in 3 different tables. Currently i am using Django Import- Export library to import data into models from csv and xlsx files. The functionality is working fine but it is taking too much time to insert this bulk data I have started with 1 Lac records in one table but since 3-4 hrs it is just updating the records. Is their any way in which i can bulk upload data from csv or xlsx files into django model. Thanks for the support. -
django-admin startproject does not create manage.py
I am trying to create a new django project. I just installed python 2.7.15, and virtualenv and django 1.5. I don't have any other version installed. When I run python django-admin.py startproject myproject, it creates a new folder myproject -- myproject ---- init.py ---- .... But, manage.py is missing in the top folder, what am I doing wrong? thanks.
