pipenv install djangorestframework_simplejwt fails
When I try to install simplejwt using this command: pipenv install djangorerestframework_simplejwt It is showing this: Installing djangorerestframework_simplejwt...

Prevent Django from removing equals signs in URL
I have some verification emails links that look like the following: https://test.example.com/auth/security_questions/f=ru&i=101083&k=7014c315f3056243534741610545c8067d64d747a981de22fe75b78a03d16c92 In dev env this works fine, but now that I am getting it ready for production, it isn't working. When I click on it, it converts it to: https://test.example.com/auth/security_questions/f%3Dru&i%3D101083&k%3D7014c315f3056243534741610545c8067d64d747a981de22fe75b78a03d16c92/ This prevents react-router-dom from matching the correct URL, so a portion of the web application does not load properly. The link is constructed using the following. link = '%s/auth/security_questions/f=%s&i=%s&k=%s' -

Cannot save new users due to ValueError, Django
I'm saving business hours to restaurants when they sign up on my platform but, I'm getting this error: "ValueError: save() prohibited to prevent data loss due to unsaved related object restaurant."

nginx not returning Cache-Control header from upstream gunicorn
I'm using WhiteNoise to serve static files from a Django app running under gunicorn. For some reason, the Cache-Control and Access-Control-Allow-Origin headers returned by the gunicorn backend are not being passed back to the client through the nginx proxy.

Set up read-the-docs environment via script
I have an self hosted read-the-docs server which is able to build and to host documentation from different projects. It can be connected to my Git server with the use of the read-the-docs webinterface and everything works fine. What i am trying to do now is to set up the environment for a new documentation with a script which does some basic stuff to make project documentation easier. These points are already done: After creating a project, by starting the script: set the project folder set Programming language (script generates folders and files which are needed to generate a basic documentation on my readthedocs server with Sphinx, Doxygen or JsDoc) set up Git repository and upload to my Git server What is missing now in the script: set up the project on my read-the-docs server At the moment I have to set up the project on the readthedocs webinterface and connect it to my Git server. I hope that somebody has already some experience with this and could give me a hint. Thanks -
How to Filter ModelChoiceFilter by current user using django-filter
I'm using django-filter which is working great but I am having a problem filtering my drop down list of choices (which is based on a model) by the current user. It's a fairly basic and common scenario where you have a child table which has a many to one relationship to a parent table. I want to filter the table of child records by selecting a parent. This is all fairly easy, standard stuff. The fly in ointment is when the parent records are created by different users and you only want to show the parent records in the drop down list that belongs to the current user. Here is my code from filters.py import django_filters from django import forms from .models import Project, Task from django_currentuser.middleware import get_current_user, get_current_authenticated_user class MasterListFilter(django_filters.FilterSet): project = django_filters.ModelChoiceFilter( label='Projects', name='project_fkey', queryset=Project.objects.filter(deleted__isnull=True, user_fkey=3).distinct('code') ) class Meta: model = Task fields = ['project'] @property def qs(self): parent = super(MasterListFilter, self).qs user = get_current_user() return parent.filter(master=True, deleted__isnull=True, user_fkey=user.id) This bit works fine: @property def qs(self): parent = super(MasterListFilter, self).qs user = get_current_user() return parent.filter(master=True, deleted__isnull=True, user_fkey=user.id) This filters my main list so that only records that have a master flag set, have not been deleted and … -

Prevent Context from updating in Django
So my very little lack of django knowledge makes it a bit hard to explain exactly what's going on.I think specifically the lack of knowledge in regards to how this boilerplate/project/framework is set up makes it a bit hard for me explain the issue but I'll give it a try I'm trying to render a Django Template with a given context. Now I manage to render the template but the context keeps updating itself. How do I make the template differentiate between the contexts ? or how do I prevent the context from updating itself ? def render_stateTree(self,request,temp_context): c = RequestContext(request, temp_context) # Create a response response = TemplateResponse(request, 'admin/StateTree.html', c) # Register the callback response.resolve_context(temp_context) # Return the response return response def get_urls(self): from django.conf.urls import patterns, url, include if settings.DEBUG: self.check_dependencies() def wrap(view, cacheable=False): def wrapper(*args, **kwargs): return self.admin_view(view, cacheable)(*args, **kwargs) return update_wrapper(wrapper, view) # Admin-site-wide views. urlpatterns = patterns('', url(r'^$', wrap(self.index), name='index'), url(r'^logout/$', wrap(self.logout), name='logout'), url(r'^password_change/$', wrap(self.password_change, cacheable=True), name='password_change'), url(r'^password_change/done/$', wrap(self.password_change_done, cacheable=True), name='password_change_done'), url(r'^jsi18n/$', wrap(self.i18n_javascript, cacheable=True), name='jsi18n'), url(r'^r/(?P<content_type_id>\d+)/(?P<object_id>.+)/$', wrap(contenttype_views.shortcut), name='view_on_site'), url(r'^(?P<app_label>\w+)/$', wrap(self.app_index), name='app_list') ) # Add in each model's views. for model, model_admin in six.iteritems(self._registry): urlpatterns += patterns('', url(r'^%s/%s/' % (model._meta.app_label, model._meta.model_name), include(model_admin.urls)) ) #urlpatterns += patterns('',url(r'statetree', … -
Why do i need to set kwargs as parameter of CBV in Django
While overriding get_context_data,2 parameters are passed self and **kwargs while the CBV already has kwargs at self.kwargs(which are arguments passed from URL to the CBV) Why do we need this extra kwargs(one passed to the function) Example of overriding and even updating the context dict with function kwargs as shown in line 64. -

Modify settings to skip tests through command line
I have a Django 1.11 app which has two types of tests: pytest tests and selenium tests. I am currently using tags to decide which set of suites will be run, but I would prefer it if the selenium tests are ignored by default, and then run by overriding something in the command line. So the command I run at the moment is python manage.py test but I want it to ignore the tagged selenium tests. I was thinking I could do something like this: from django.conf import settings @unittest.skipIf(getattr(settings,'SKIP_SELENIUM_TESTS', False), "Skipping Selenium tests") But then how could I make it so that I could change the value of SKIP_SELENIUM_TESTS via a single command in the command line? Any help would be much appreciated.
