request.META.get('CSRF_COOKIE')
I'm getting the "csrf token missing or incorrect" error in my django app. I have the csrf token in my template: <form action="/hello/compare_lname" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data>{% csrf_token %} I use request in render() in my view.py: render(request, 'delta.html',{'delta_dict': delta_dict}) I put a print statement in _compare_salted_tokens in middleware.csrf print(request_csrf_token, csrf_token). request_csrf_token is changing. csrf_token doesn't change, even if I restart the server. csrf_token comes from: csrf_token = request.META.get('CSRF_COOKIE') Do I need to reset request.META.get('CSRF_COOKIE') somehow? -

following this guide: https://cloud.google.com/python/django/appengine Im trying to run python manage.py makemigrations in the virtualenv however no output comes out, it seems as if it freezes immediately.

Django query does not group
I want to group the number of messages by recipient user -> {'User 1': 5};{'User 2': 7}... My model: class Mensaje(models.Model): remitente = models.ForeignKey('Usuario', on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='Remitente') destinatario = models.ForeignKey('Usuario', on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='Destinatario') mensaje = models.TextField(validators=[MaxLengthValidator(1000)]) leido = models.BooleanField(default=False) fechaEnvio = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) My query: mensajes = Mensaje.objects.filter(destinatario=request.user).values('pk', 'remitente__username').annotate(num_msg=Count('pk')).order_by('-fechaEnvio') Result: {'pk': 28, 'remitente__username': 'Paco', 'num_msg': 1}, {'pk': 27, 'remitente__username': 'Paco', 'num_msg': 1}, {'pk': 26, 'remitente__username': 'jota', 'num_msg': 1}, {'pk': 25, 'remitente__username': 'jota', 'num_msg': 1}... As you can see, the query returns all the messages without group by user. Another question: Why does not work mensajes = request.user.mensaje_set.all()? -
Django won't set a specific cookie, but will set others
response = redirect("/") response.set_cookie('id_token1', 'woohoo') response.set_cookie('id_token', 'woohoo') response.set_cookie('test', 'woohoo') return response When I inspect the cookies on the next page, id_token1 and test are both set but id_token is not.

Create custom lookup in Django similar to startswith
I need to create a custom field lookup in Django that is similar to startswith. The built in startswith lookup works like this: id__startswith='abc' So if the ID field is 'abc1' then it would match. However I need create a 'contained from start' (cfs) lookup that looks this: id__cfs='abc12' So if the ID field is 'abc' then it would match. Basically __startswith but the other way around. This is my code so far but I am getting an error: class Test(Lookup): lookup_name = 'test' def as_sql(self, compiler, connection): lhs, lhs_params = self.process_lhs(compiler, connection) rhs, rhs_params = self.process_rhs(compiler, connection) params = rhs_params + lhs_params return "%s LIKE %s%%" % (rhs, lhs), params Field.register_lookup(Test) test_parts = Items.objects.filter( id__test='12345' ) print('test_parts', test_parts) This is the error I am getting: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/juanjosegutierrez/projects/powerTools/projects/tests/unit/tasks/test_match_parts.py", line 83, in test_part_ids_param print('test_parts', test_parts) File "/Users/juanjosegutierrez/.virtualenvs/powertools/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 138, in __repr__ data = list(self[:REPR_OUTPUT_SIZE + 1]) File "/Users/juanjosegutierrez/.virtualenvs/powertools/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 162, in __iter__ self._fetch_all() File "/Users/juanjosegutierrez/.virtualenvs/powertools/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 965, in _fetch_all self._result_cache = list(self.iterator()) File "/Users/juanjosegutierrez/.virtualenvs/powertools/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 238, in iterator results = compiler.execute_sql() File "/Users/juanjosegutierrez/.virtualenvs/powertools/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/db/models/sql/compiler.py", line 840, in execute_sql cursor.execute(sql, params) File "/Users/juanjosegutierrez/.virtualenvs/powertools/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/db/backends/utils.py", line 64, in execute return self.cursor.execute(sql, params) IndexError: tuple index out of range This is … -

Login/Logout a user using Django
I am currently working on a project with Django. I am trying to implement the ability of login and logout a user from the application using only python scripts in order to send post request from the client to the server. I am trying to logout a user from my application but it does not seems to work. In my login function this is the method used to login a user: login_user = authenticate(username=user.customer_username, password=user.customer_password) if login_user is not None: if login_user.is_active: request.session.set_expiry(86400) login(request, login_user) print(request.user.is_active) The result of the print is True here which means that the login method is correct if I am not wrong. When I try to logout the user, using this method: # Loging out the user print(request.user.is_active) logout(request) It does not logout the user and the result of the print is False here, which means that the user is not logged in. If anyone have any idea, how to solve this, it would be very helpful. Thanks. -
How forms work in django
I am sure this is a silly question but I am trying to understand how forms work in django and I am confused about the action attribute in the template and the httpresponseredirect in views.py I have the following template: <form action="/play_outcomes/output/" method="post"> {% csrf_token %} {{ form }} <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> </form> And the following view: def getinput(request): if request.method == 'POST': form = get_data(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): down = form.cleaned_data['get_down'] ytg = form.cleaned_data['get_ytg'] yfog = form.cleaned_data['get_yfog'] return HttpResponseRedirect('/thanks/') else: form = get_data() return render(request, 'play_outcomes/getinput.html', {'form': form}) And finally in forms.py class get_data(forms.Form): get_down = forms.IntegerField(label = "Enter a down") get_ytg = forms.IntegerField(label = "Enter yards to go") get_yfog = forms.IntegerField(label = "Enter yards from own goal") When I go to play_outcomes/getinput my form comes up. When I press 'submit' it directs shows the play_outcomes/output page, presumably because that is what is specified by the <form action variable. Anyway, my question is what is the purpose of the return HttpResponseRedirect('/thanks/') after it has checked form.is_valid(). This is TRUE so it must execute this code. But this return seems redundant. Please can someone enlighten me on what the return in the views.py is doing -
Using related_name twice
Suppose I have 3 models which are subsequent 1 to many relations, A (1 to many) B (1 to many) C class ModelA(models.Model): class ModelB(models.Model): model_a = models.ForeignKey('ModelA', related_name='re_model_b') class ModelC(models.Model): model_b = models.ForeignKey('ModelA', related_name='re_model_c') Starting from a ModelA instance I can use model_a.re_model_b to obtain the ModelB related objects. But from there I don't know how to get to ModelC. I tried model_a.re_model_b.re_model_c and model_a.re_model_b__re_model_c neither of which seems to do the trick. -

Difference between args=[topic.id] and args=[topic_id] when using the return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse) in Django
I'm following a tutorial from to build a simple blog app with Django. I have noticed that in the new_entry() view, we need to pass topic_id in agrs when using the reverse function: def new_entry(request, topic_id): """Add a new entry for a particular topic""" topic = Topic.objects.get(id=topic_id) if request.method != 'POST': #No data submitted, create a blank form form = EntryForm() else: #POST data submitted; process data form = EntryForm(data=request.POST) if form.is_valid(): new_entry = form.save(commit=False) new_entry.topic = topic new_entry.save() return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('learning_logs:topic', args=[topic_id])) context = {'topic': topic, 'form': form} return render(request, 'learning_logs/new_entry.html', context) However, when creating the edit_entry() view (that allows users to edit existing entries), we need to pass topic.id def edit_entry(request, entry_id): """Edit an existing entry""" entry = Entry.objects.get(id=entry_id) topic = entry.topic if request.method != 'POST': #Initial request, render the form with current entry form = EntryForm(instance=entry) else: #Submit changes, process data form = EntryForm(instance=entry, data=request.POST) if form.is_valid(): form.save() return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('learning_logs:topic', args=[topic.id])) context = {'topic':topic, 'entry':entry, 'form':form} return render(request,'learning_logs/edit_entry.html', context) Initially I thought this was a mistake so I used args=[topic_id] in both reverse functions and it worked fine Later, I decided I wanted to add a title to each entry so I made some minor changes to models.py, … -
Django ListView split display in categories in template
I don't really know how to phrase my question, but what I'm trying to do is add a title between items to split them into obvious categories on my template. I would like to do this: {# set variable "current_category" to an empty value first #} {% for item in items %} {% if item.category == current_category %} {{ current_category = item.category }} {# <-- How to do that? #} <h1>{{ item.category }}</h1> {% endfor %} <p>{{ item.name }}</p> {% endfor %} Then end up with: <h1>Cat 1</h1> <p>item</p> <p>item</p> ... <h1>Cat 2</h1> <p>item</p> .. I saw on similar answers that there are things called custom filters and simple tags but it seems really complicated for something very simple. Is this really the only way to do that? NOTE: I already ordered the items by category of course -

Geodjango and hierarchical locations
In a few weeks I want to start building a "datawarehouse" based on django. The database should be filled with data which can be connected to a location. For example population which is connected to country or city, or the anual rainfall or temperature. The parameters are not yet defined and will change over time but they will in general have a quantity, timeperiod (for example anual) and unit (so in the example: population of country X in year Y). My idea was to have a selfreferencing table in the database named locations in which there would be continents, countries, regions and cities. An example: ID | parent_id | name 1 | null | Europe 2 | 1 | France 3 | 2 | Paris I would than have a table which would connect data to a location like such: ID | location_id | parameter_id | from_date | to_date | quantity 1 | 3 | 1 | 01-01-2000 | 31-01-2001 | 3000000 parameters: ID | name | unit 1 | population | people Technically I also want to couple locations to coordinates or polygons such that I can show them on a map. Is something like this possible in (Geo)Django? … -

Displaying Data from Multiple Models
My models come from a postgres database. I have gotten data from both of my models to display in the browser (CurrentAlLeagueStandings and CurrentNlLeagueStandings). However, I can only get data from one model to display at a time. How do I get it to display data from each model, at the same time, on the same webpage. I'll include my code from gist. I am a beginner and I gave it a go, so if my code with both models doesn't make sense, bare with me. As I said before the code does work when I try to pull from only one model. Something to also note is that both of these models have the same field names. If anybody can help it would be greatly appreciated. An example relative to my code would be a huge help! https://gist.github.com/anonymous/052b91ea56a951ac3fbc5ab7f66cc9f8 -
Function save models django
There is an application model. The meaning of it is quite simple, the Author submits the application, the site administrator appoints the Contractor for its execution, which after completing the received application completes it. Everything seems to be fine, the application model was created, made sure that after the administrator chooses the Contractor the application immediately received the status of closed. But here is one problem that I can not cope with when the Administrator closes the application (Status "Completed"), then the application does not acquire the status Completed, because the Artist is assigned to it because of the save function in the model. How to make the status of the application complete, even if a contractor is appointed to this application?
