how do I call specific function in views.py through ajax call in javascript file?
In Django we map URLs to functions in views.py. If we do an ajax call then we need to mention url in ajax call but that will call the function mapped to that url. I want to call specific function from views.py via ajax call? What should I do so that I can call any function in views.py via AJAX call without changing url? views.py def index(request): codes=Code.objects.all()[:10] context={ 'name': 'KD', 'codes': codes } return render(request,'coding/index.html',context) def details(request): code=Code.objects.get(1) context={ 'code': code } return render(request, 'coding/details.html', context) urls.py from django.contrib import admin from django.urls import path,include from . import views urlpatterns = [ path('',views.index, name="index" ), path('details',views.details, name="details" ), ]; javascript <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $("#tests").submit(function(event){ event.preventDefault(); $.ajax({ type:"POST", url:"/details/", // what changes should be done so that I can call other function in views.py? data: { 'video': $('#tests').val() }, success: function(){ $('#message').html("<h2>Code Submitted!</h2>") } }); return false; }); }); </script> -
Creating new model in Django with POST data from Python requests
I'm trying to take information from a POST request made from Python requests and add it to my model: def message(request): if request.method == 'POST': form = InputInfoForm(request.POST) #form models make validation easy if form.is_valid(): InputInfo.name = request.POST.get('name') InputInfo.conversation_id = request.POST.get('conversation_id') InputInfo.message_body = request.POST.get('message_body') return HttpResponse(status=200) return HttpResponse(status=200) Here's the request post_data = {'name': 'charles', 'conversation_id': '3', 'message_body': 'Ada Challenge'} r = requests.post('http://127.0.0.1:8000/message/', data=post_data) I'm not sure if I'm handling the requests right in the view -
Django Celery receiving and accepting tasks, but not executing them
I'm running a Django 1.11 server on Digital Ocean running Ubuntu 16.04, Gunicorn, Nginx, and am trying to set up Celery tasks using Redis. The service seems to work and receive periodic tasks fine when I do: celery -A config worker -B -l debug And the tasks are received and accepted, but they don't execute.

unable to see my anything in database pycharm
I really am at a loss here. I am using Pycharm 5.0.4 and running a virtual env with Python3 and Django 2.0.1. I am trying to get my database up and running for my project, but no matter what I do I cannot seem to get anything to show up in the database tool window drop down in Pycharm. I have 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3' set in my settings.py, and in Pycharm i am going to: Create New -> Data Source -> SQlite(Xerial). I then makemigrations and migrate but nothing shows up in the database. I can even go to the project website and succesfully add/create models in the admin site. But I cannot figure out where they are or see them... It was working at one point but I deleted my database because I was getting some errors and now I am trying to recreate it. -
Return specific wagtail setting for site
Just recently migrated domains to a single site but all settings are set per site. (navbar etc) Is tehre a way in wagtail to return a specific site's settings based upon the url? I tried monkey-patching the settings function in wagtail.contrib.settings.context_processors to return SettingsProxy(site) where site is the string of the appropriate site. But, this settings object contains nothing in the template. -

Getting a 403 error involving CSRF when trying to connect to localhost (python requests)
I'm trying to test a connection to one of my Django views using Python's requests library. When I try to make a POST request on it I receive info when viewing request.text telling me the CSRF verification failed, and that I need a CSRF token when submitting forms. I've done some more research here and tried my best with this This is my code right now: post_request = requests.session() post_request.get('http://127.0.0.1:8000/message/') csrftoken = post_request.cookies['csrftoken'] headers = {'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/64.0.3282.140 Safari/537.36'} final_request = post_request.post('http://127.0.0.1:8000/message/', headers=dict(Referer=post_request)) This is my view: def add_message(request): form = InputInfoForm(request.POST) if request.method == 'POST': return HttpResponse('hey') return HttpResponse('test') So how do I verify the CSRF token in the view using requests? -
AJAX call taking super long (2-4 secs)
I'm really stumped on an issue that I need to fix ASAP. On my website, whenever you pan the map, an ajax call is fired, doing a query in the database. The problem is, the ajax call takes somewhere between 2-10 seconds, which is unacceptable. Link to website There are about 500k records in my database. I notice that the more records I add, the slower it gets. That makes sense right, but why is it exceptionally slow and so inconsistent? I am using Digitalocean. When I check my control panel, the CPU/RAM/disk are all operating at very low levels. The AJAX call code: def filter_closed_listings(request): zoom = int(request.GET.get('zoomLevel')) minLat = request.GET.get('minLat') maxLat = request.GET.get('maxLat') minLng = request.GET.get('minLng') maxLng = request.GET.get('maxLng') sold = request.GET.get('sold') property_type = request.GET.get('pType') building_style = request.GET.get('bType') showActiveListings = request.GET.get('showActiveListings') showSoldListings = request.GET.get('showSoldListings') showEndedListings = request.GET.get('showEndedListings') bed = request.GET.get('bed') bath = request.GET.get('bath') low_price = request.GET.get('low') high_price = request.GET.get('high') includePandL = request.GET.get('includePandL') transaction_type = request.GET.get('transactionType') ended_time_difference = datetime.date.today() + datetime.timedelta(-int(sold)) # Date check print(ended_time_difference) # Initial filter with map bounds and date check data = Listing.objects.filter(la__gt=minLat).filter(la__lt=maxLat).filter(lo__gt=minLng).filter(lo__lt=maxLng) data = data.filter(transaction_type=transaction_type) # 0 is 'Any'.

Django REST Framework setting to change the auto added 'Id' to 'djangoID'

Django queryset with prefetch or not?
I have such models class Category(models.Model): name = models.CharField() … class Product(models.Model): category = models.ForeignKey(Category, verbose_name=‘cat’) name = models.CharField() price = models.IntegerField() I need to create queryset which will select all products with price >= 100 grouped by categories. Afterwards I need to get count of products in each category. I did categories = Category.objects.filter(product__price__gte = 100) This queryset gave me all categories which contain product with price >= 100. But how can I get count of products in it and products themseves? Maybe I need to use a prefetch_related, but I don't know how. -

Weird behavior with external class in django
I've got a weird problem here. It hurts my brain thinking about it. I've got a Django project with multiple apps. Today I added another app. (views.py) from %app_name%.%class_file% import %class_name% def api(request): t = %class_name%() data = {} data['listOtherDevices'] = t.listOtherDevices logger = logging.getLogger(__name__) logger.error(len(t.listOtherDevices)) return JsonResponse(data) The imported class fills the 'listOtherDevices'-array via __init__ perfectly fine when I run it inside a console. When I do so, there are exactly 3 elements inside this array (as there are 3 devices in my LAN the class could find). So when I visit the url (development server -> manage.py runserver) linked to this method I can see a JSON with exactly 3 entries. So far so good but now comes the weird part. When I refresh the url in my browser or visit it one more time, there are more than 3 entries. The scheme is like this: opened url 1 time: 3 entries opened url 2 times: 9 entries (+ 6) opened url 3 times: 18 entries (+ 9) opened url 4 times: 30 entries (+ 12) opened url 5 times: 45 entries (+ 15) opened url 6 times: 63 entries (+ 18) I can see a pattern there … -
Django template: 2 for loops with same iterable seems to be interfering with each other
So I have 2 for loops in an HTML template, back to back that are both using the same iterable like so: {% for counter in iSM %} #some code here {% empty %} <p>There's a missing tab here.</p> {% endfor %} </div> {% for iteration in iSM %} #some code here {% endif %} {% empty %} <p>There's a missing context here.</p> {% endfor %} The issue I have with this is it seems that the counter doesn't reset. The first for loop will operate as normal, no problem. The second for loop will trigger the empty. Switching the order of these for loops will work for whatever loop is on top. How do I go around having both loops return all elements of the view the same? -
Is there any way to add through to M2M field with keeping the related manager's .add() working?
While Django doesn't completely support adding the through attribute to a M2M field (in order to add some extra fields), it can be migrated. The main issue is, Django will complain when any code tries to .add() models to the related set even if there are no required fields in the through model outside of the FKs of the linked models. So, I want to add a nullable field to the through model and still keep .add() and remove working like it was before (and implicitely using None as the nullable field value). Adding auto_created=True in the meta almost works, but it breaks migrations amongst other things. Is there any way to make it work outside of overriding the many2many descriptor (which isn't exactly included in the public API, though a lot of third-party Django packages use it)? -
