django-admin - How to add a section between form fields and auto-fill
I want to add an extra section (a <div>) on a django-admin form, which gets filled automatically with related data as I select a ForeignKey on a form field. For example, suppose there's a model Student, that is used in another model Classroom. class Classroom(models.Model): student_name = models.ForeignKey(Student, on_delete=models.DO_NOTHING) I want the Classroom admin form page to look like the following image: As I select a student named "John", the related details should automatically show up. -
JSON Schema Syntax Checker
I need to make a JSON schema to json validator web app using Django. I've already made the UI with login features and somewhere to upload files and now I'm working on the main logic. I'm going through different ideas on how to implement it and I wondering if there was a way I could implement jsonschema into my project. This is just an idea and I'm not sure if I should do that or just make a validator from scratch. -
LOGIN command error: BAD [b'Not enough arguments provided ]
I tried to make a login page from scratch using imaplib and the Django framework using two forms inputs, one for email and another for password, but it has been showing the login command error on the Django error page. This is the view from my app: from django.shortcuts import render from .forms import AccountEmail, AccountPassword from django.http import HttpResponse import imaplib username = '' password = '' def get_email(request): template = 'email_account/index.html' if request.method == 'POST': email_input = AccountEmail(request.POST) password_input = AccountPassword(request.POST) if email_input.is_valid(): username = email_input.cleaned_data['email'] if password_input.is_valid(): password = password_input.cleaned_data['password'] else: email_input = AccountEmail() password_input = AccountPassword() return render(request,template,{'email': email_input, 'password': password_input}) def inbox(request): server = imaplib.IMAP4_SSL('imap.gmail.com') server.login(username, password) server.select('inbox') ch, data = server.search(None, 'all') mail_id = data[0] lst = mail_id.split() return render("<h2>lst</h2>") And my this is my code from the forms.py file: from django import forms class AccountEmail(forms.Form): email = forms.EmailField(max_length=50, widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Introduce your email'})) class AccountPassword(forms.Form): password = forms.CharField(max_length=20, widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Introduce your password'})) -
script is not running on ajax loaded content in django
I have a web page in which i have some nested div elements forming one complete set which can be loaded dynamically when user clicks load more button. the web page has some script which change the style of the above mentioned div element, when the page first loaded. when the user clicks load more button, ajax call is made and the html received is appended after the above mentioned 'div'element. the problem is that only raw html is appended to the page, without running the script on it, the result is that only the div which is present when the page is first loaded is getting style by the script. how to get script to run on the dynamically loaded element too? django views: from django.shortcuts import render from printools.models import Images from django.template import loader from django.http import HttpResponse from django.shortcuts import render # Create your views here. def index(request): image_set = Images.objects.all()[:3] template = loader.get_template('printools/index.html') context = { 'images':image_set, } return HttpResponse(template.render(context,request)) def ajaxImages(request): total_image = Images.objects.all().count() n = int(request.POST['nImages']) template = loader.get_template('printools/ajaxImages.html') data = Images.objects.all()[n:n + 3] context = { 'images': data, 'n_images':total_image, } return HttpResponse(template.render(context, request)) ajax call: $('#js-single-more').on('click',function (event) { console.log('clicked'); $.ajax({ type: 'POST', … -
Incorrect longitude/latitude saved to PointField via admin widget
I have a basic GeoDjango PointField: point = models.PointField(srid=4326, null=True) When using the admin, I would expect this to be saved in the database as (for example, London): SRID=4326;POINT (-94.577597, 39.057294) but instead, if I place the marker on London, I get: SRID=4326;POINT (-19067.91721243037 6711435.410105047) Where the longitude/latitude are way off. I've tried manually setting the Point to the location: obj.point = Point(-94.577597, 39.057294) obj.save() but the widget is then rendered way off. So it seems that the wrong latitude and longitude are being saved to the field. I've tried to manually override the widget to make sure the correct SRID is being used on the widget with: class Meta: model = models.MyModel fields = "all" widgets = { 'point': widgets.OSMWidget(attrs={ 'map_srid': 4326, 'map_width': 800, 'map_height': 500 }) } But no luck. I have all the dependencies for GeoDjango installed, I've enabled the postgis extension on my database and I the correct engine in use: DATABASES['default']['ENGINE'] = 'django.contrib.gis.db.backends.postgis' I also have added django.contrib.gis to INSTALLED_APPS. I'm using the default form widget, but I'm wondering might the widget be the problem? -
How to show error messages in a custom signup template in Django
I'm trying to show error message in my custom signup template. Just to verify my below codes work, I used the {{ form.as_table }} and it shows error message properly.

Django testing: how to add app to `Synchronizing apps without migrations` section
When I run the tests with a verbosity level of 3 (-v 3), I see that my apps are NOT categorized under Synchronizing apps without migrations... I would ask how to add my apps to this section. I have them in INSTALED_APPS list. after running tests I have: django.db.utils.OperationalError: no such table notice. Why is that? How to add those apps to Synchronizing apps without migrations...

Django storages S3 - File loading
I have django 1.11 with latest django-storages, setup with S3 backend. I am trying to programatically instantiate an ImageFile, using the AWS image link as a starting point. I cannot figure out how to do this looking at the source / documentation. I assume I need to create a file, and give it the path derived from the url without the domain, but I can't find exactly how. The final aim of this is to programatically create wagtail Image objects, that point to S3 images (So pass the new ImageFile to the Imagefield of the image). I own the S3 bucket the images are stored in it. Uploading images works correctly, so the system is setup correctly. -

Django: remove duplicates (group by) from queryset by related model field
I have a Queryset with a couple of records, and I wan't to remove duplicates using the related model field. For example: class User(models.Model): group = models.ForeignKey('Group') ... class Address(models.Model): ... models.ForeignKey('User') addresses = Address.objects.filter(group__id=1).order_by('-id') This returns a QuerySet of Address records, and I want to group by the User ID. I can't use .annotate because I need all fields from Address, and the relationship between Address and User I can't use .distinct() because it doesn't work, since all addresses are distinct, and I want distinct user addresses. I could: unique_users_ids = [] unique_addresses = [] for address in addresses: if address.user.id not in unique_users_ids: unique_addresses.append(address) unique_users_ids.append(address.user.id) print unique_addresses # TA-DA! But it seems too much for a simple thing like a group by (damn you Django). Is there a easy way to achieve this? -

Django/postgres transaction isolation level setting ignored
I have an issue setting transaction isolation level. I want the most strict serializable, while the default is read committed. I am using: Django==1.10.6 psycopg2==2.5.1 Running on heroku. Based on the documentation: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/ref/databases/#isolation-level I have the following settings.py: DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3', 'NAME': os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'db.sqlite3'), }, 'OPTIONS': { 'isolation_level': psycopg2.extensions.ISOLATION_LEVEL_SERIALIZABLE, } } if on_heroku: DATABASES['default'] = dj_database_url.config() Here's the view code: @require_http_methods(["POST"]) @transaction.atomic @login_required() def api_test_add_one(request): cursor = connection.cursor() cursor.execute('SHOW default_transaction_isolation') logger.info("aa: " + str(cursor.fetchone())) return HttpResponse("{}", content_type="application/json") The output is: aa: (u'read committed',) I have run different tests simultaneously accessing the same endpoint, incrementing an integer in DB and confirmed that transactions were not isolated. -
Django delete() method has no effect
I've been working with Django for about a year, and I've recently started a Django 2 application projet. My problem is that when I use delete() on a model instance, the object isn't removed from the database. Below is related models.py code class Project (models.Model): owner = models.ForeignKey (User, ...) participants = models.ManyToManyField (User, ...) class ProjectFile (models.Model): uploader = models.ForeignKey (User, blank=True, on_delete=models.CASCADE) project = models.ForeignKey (Project, related_name="documents", blank=True, on_delete=models.CASCADE) file = models.FileField (verbose_name=_("Fichier"), upload_to=upload_to_projects) And below is the related view @require_ajax def remove_file(request, project_id, file_id): file = get_object_or_404(ProjectFile, id=file_id, project=project_id) file.delete() return HttpResponse(status=200) Whether I try to delete from this view or from shell with ProjectFile.objects.get(id=1).delete() everything seems fine (it returns (1, {'Ideaters.ProjectFile': 1})) but the object isn't deleted from the database. I've also noticed that when I try to delete a project, I get this error: ForeignKey constraint violation Ideaters_projectfile_project_id_c6254cf6_fk_Ideaters_project_id DETAIL: The key (project_id)=(1) isn't present in the table Ideaters_project But I don't understand it, as Project table has no relation to itself. Anyway, I guess may be related to my foreign keys definition but though I went through 2.0 Documentation, I can't see my mistake. -
Database slow with Django and PostgreSQL
I recently ran some standard package updates on my Ubuntu server, and now my Django site with a Apache ModWSGI+PostgreSQL backend is running extremely slowly. Pages that used to load in 2 seconds are now taking 30 seconds. Checking the running queries with SELECT * from pg_stat_activity, I'm seeing this query repeated: SELECT "django_site"."id", "django_site"."domain", "django_site"."name" FROM "django_site" WHERE "django_site"."id" = 91 However, these are all in "idle" status. They don't seem to be deadlocked, as if I refresh the results, the pid for these idle queries is cleared in about a minute, but still, such a simple query should not be taking an entire minute to run. How do I debug the source of this terrible performance? I haven't changed my code or server configuration, so I'm assuming some package update introduced some change or bug. -
Does Django Channels 1 & 2 compatible on Redis backend level?

How to save uploaded files to models and serve them in templates?
I've been following the django 2 official tutorial but I'm a bit confused as how to work with images and uploaded files. I have a project with a few apps. Let's call the project myProj and the app myApp. There is a model in myApp called myModel which has an image field myImage. Here is my model: from django.db import models class myModel(models.Model): myImage = models.ImageField(upload_to='myApp_images') Here is my template: <img src="{{ n.image }}"></img> Here is my view from django.shortcuts import get_object_or_404, render from .models import myModel def index(request): n = myModel.objects[0] context = { 'n': n, } return render(request, 'myModel/index.html', context) And here is my settings:(parts I thought were relevant) INSTALLED_APPS = [ 'news.apps.myModelConfig', 'django.contrib.staticfiles', ] MEDIA_URL = '/media/' MEDIA_ROOT = '/home/aran/myfiles/projects/futureCoin/media/' Here is my myProject/urls.py: from django.contrib import admin from django.urls import include, path from django.conf import settings from django.conf.urls.static import static urlpatterns = [ path('myModel/', include('myModel.urls')), path('admin/', admin.site.urls), ] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT) So I made an instance of the model through the django admin site.

Use a custom generated string as a model field value in django
I want to search a keyword in multiple (about 20) forum-user databases. Unfortunately, the specific tables are named differently throughout the databases. In one database, the user-table is named username, in another it is named name etc. I added a model field field_username to every forum field_username which saves the corresponding value of each database. {% for key, value in forum.items %} <p>{{ value.field_username }}</p> {% endfor %} <p>{{ user.customUsername }}</p> I then want to use that customUsername as a model field value like this: {% for user in value.user_list %} <p>{{ user.customUsername }}</p> {% endfor %} ... so that customUsername evaluates to the database value, like username, name, display_name etc. Right now, nothing happens. Is that possible? -
Angular 5 Django CSRF token
