python-django-restframwork deserializer
I have a list like this form. [{'XPos': {'$': 128.604314661}, 'YPos': {'$': 35.8662354972}, 'clCd': {'$': 1}, 'drTotCnt': {'$': 545}, 'estbDd': {'$': 19100907} }, {'XPos': {'$': 128.096026987}, 'YPos': {'$': 35.1753899647}, 'clCd': {'$': 1}, 'drTotCnt': {'$': 326}, }, {'XPos': {'$': 127.050741243}, 'YPos': {'$': 37.5937747637}, 'clCd': {'$': 1}, 'drTotCnt': {'$': 412}, 'estbDd': {'$': 19711005} }, {'XPos': {'$': 128.582521394}, 'YPos': {'$': 35.8701796577}, 'clCd': {'$': 1}, 'drTotCnt': {'$': 427} }, {'XPos': {'$': 126.884639554}, 'YPos': {'$': 37.4911811753}, 'clCd': {'$': 1}, 'drTotCnt': {'$': 498}, 'estbDd': {'$': 19830831} }, {'XPos': {'$': 126.824997324}, 'YPos': {'$': 37.3188581763}, 'clCd': {'$': 1}, 'drTotCnt': {'$': 281}, 'estbDd': {'$': 19860101}, }] and using django-rest-framework deserializer, i want to insert that data into my database. BUT, i have some problems. I just only need 'XPos','YPos', 'estbDd' value. In converting xml to json, more nested structures have been created. (look '$') Some datas do not have 'estbDd' field values. How can i filter that datas and input to my database? http://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/serializers/ i referenced that site. -
Django: customizing the Form does not deliver the instructions, input only numbers etc
I am in the forms.py file, and as you can see I am trying to customize the html that the template engine renders, but it is ignoring whatever I write. If I enter letters, it should show a dialog box on the fly as HTML5 by default does, indicating that only numbers. Also even if I write a number larger than 10, which is the limit, it sends it anyway. In other words, the customization on the forms.py page is not being effective like when you do it directly on the form. but I cannot write in the form because of the **** template that abstracts everything and you dont know what is going on behind doors. I include the form just for curiosity: class ReForm(forms.Form): count = forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput( attrs={'input type': 'number', 'pattern':'\d*', 'maxlength':'2', 'min': '1', 'max':'10','title':'Numbers only','placeholder':'Max value 10'})) FORM: <form method="GET" novalidate> {% csrf_token %} {% for hidden_field in form.hidden_fields %} {{ hidden_field }} {% endfor %} {% for field in form.visible_fields %} <div class="form-group"> {{ field.label_tag }} {% render_field field class="form-control" %} {% if field.help_text %} <small class="form-text text-muted">{{ field.help_text }}</small> {% endif %} </div> {% endfor %} <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button> </form> -
Django DRF read json from POST?
When I try to send data from a jquery POST I can get them from both side, js client and python django-rest-framework sefializer create method from backend console.log says: { "wo_r": [ { "pk": "17635" }, { "pk": "17637" } ] } the form data show dict as: { "wo_r": [ { "pk": "17635" }, { "pk": "17637" } ] }: django shell read: <QueryDict: {'{\n "wo_r": [\n {\n "pk": "17635"\n },\n {\n "pk": "17637"\n }\n ]\n}': ['']}> Why the data sent get this ":" at the end? this is the javascript part: function creaol(indirizzo,val) { $.ajax({ url: indirizzo, type: 'POST', dataType:'json', global: false, data : val, // data : {'wo_r':[ // {"pk": "17629"}, {"pk": "17630"},{"pk": "17631"} // ]}, success: function(result) { // Do something with the result } }); } var dati = JSON.stringify(dict, null, 2); creaol(indirizzo, dati ); -
Language config for Django Rest Framework SearchFilter
I try to find out how to set LANGUAGE flag for Django REST Framework SearchFilter. So here is my code: class SearchViewSet(generics.ListAPIView): queryset = ServicePrice.objects.all() serializer_class = ServicePriceSerializer filter_backends = (filters.SearchFilter,) search_fields = ('@service__name',) I need to set (somewhere) that my language is Spanish, so the result should be something like this: SELECT to_tsvector('spanish', 'bla-bla-bla in spanish') @@ plainto_tsquery('spanish', 'bla'); Many thanks! P.S. I know about SearchVector('body_text', config='spanish') but the idea is that I use Django REST Framework SearchFilter and it will be great to use the native tools. -
Connect two foreign key linked tables to one queryset
I have three tables: class Variant(models.Model): variant = models.CharField(max_length=60, primary_key=True) gene = models.ForeignKey(Gene, on_delete=models.CASCADE, db_column='gene') var_type = models.CharField(max_length=60) consequence = models.CharField(max_length=60) cNomen = models.CharField(max_length=50) pNomen = models.CharField(max_length=50) class Meta: unique_together = (('variant', 'gene',)) def __str__(self): return str(self.variant) class VariantSampleRun(models.Model): sample = models.ForeignKey(Sample, on_delete=models.CASCADE, db_column='sample') gene = models.ForeignKey(Gene, on_delete=models.CASCADE, db_column='gene') variant = models.ForeignKey(Variant, on_delete=models.CASCADE, db_column='variant') hts_run = models.ForeignKey(HTSRun, on_delete=models.CASCADE, db_column='hts_run') vaf = models.DecimalField(max_digits=8, decimal_places=3) depth = models.IntegerField() added_manually = models.BooleanField(default=False) class Meta: unique_together = (('variant', 'gene', 'sample', 'hts_run'),) def __str__(self): return str(self.variant) + ' ' + str(self.sample) + ' ' + str(self.hts_run) class VariantAnnotation(models.Model): variant = models.ForeignKey(Variant, on_delete=models.CASCADE, db_column='variant') gene = models.ForeignKey(Gene, on_delete=models.CASCADE, db_column='gene') annotation_id = models.ForeignKey(Annotation, on_delete=models.CASCADE, db_column='annotation_id') cosmic_id = models.CharField(max_length=80) cosmic_haem = models.CharField(max_length=21) dbsnp = models.CharField(max_length=20) _1000g_AF = models.DecimalField(max_digits=20, decimal_places=10, null=True, blank=True) exac_AF = models.DecimalField(max_digits=20, decimal_places=10, null=True, blank=True) gnomad_AF = models.DecimalField(max_digits=20, decimal_places=10, null=True, blank=True) class Meta: unique_together = (('variant', 'gene', 'annotation_id'),) I want to query the VariantSampleRun table to obtain variant and VariantAnnotation information in one queryset. I can do this to get variant, but not VariantAnnotation information out using select_related(): self.var_obj = VariantSampleRun.objects.filter( sample=self.current_sample, hts_run=self.hts_run ).select_related('variant') This self.var_obj therefore allows me to obtain variant information - but i need the annotation as well.

Why won't my django view use the template that I specified?
When I look a the "companies_by_x" view in my browser it renders with the "index.html" template and not the template I specified, which is "company_list.html" -- that template is specified for the "index" view. How can I get "companies_by_x" to use the "company_list.html" template? Each view has its own URL. Thank you. def companies_by_x(request): company_list = Company.objects.filter(locations__in=[1,2]).distinct() context = {'company_list':company_list} return render(request, 'companies/company_list.html', context) def index(request): company_list = Company.objects.order_by('-id')[:5] context = {'company_list':company_list} return render(request, 'companies/index.html', context) -
Django PDF with multipage template
I have a dynamic HTML file in Django. I want to be able to generate a PDF from it, with a footer and header (image). If the content exceeds 1 page, I need the footer and header to be on multiple pages as well. As far as I know, designing a page like this on CSS is impossible, hence needing a library like Reportlab. How would I achieve this? If I can do this in Reportlab or other libraries, it would be great if anyone could point me to a guide explaining the multipage PDF 'template' -
Django : Link Model field to another model field configuration name
Giving the following models in Django : class MyModel(models.Model): name = models.CharField('This is my name'),max_length=150) class AnotherModel(models.Model): my_model_field_name = [...] I'm tring to store in AnotherModel.my_model_field_name the name of MyModel.name field (so 'This is my name'). I would like it to be linked, so if tomorow I change the name of MyModel.name field by "This is my new name", I want that all my previous records of my AnotherModel.my_model_field_name automatically update. Model instances are able to link to other models instances, not models themselves, right ? Is it possible or just stupid ? -

Adding paths in Django to create more views

Django admin panel missing management form

Read specific part of json string with python
I am currently working on a programme within the django environment which operates off a json api provided by a third party. There is an object within that API which I want however the string of information it provides is too much for me. The data I want is the created_at tag from the twitter api using tweepy. This created_at contains data in the following format: "created_at": "Mon Aug 27 17:21:03 +0000 2012" This is all fine however this will return the date AND time whereas I simply want the the time part of the above example i.e. 17:21:03. Is there any way I can just take this part of the created_at response string and store it in a separate variable? -
Reveal a <div> containing a database object only when another <div> containing a database object from the same row is clicked - Django
I am developing a website for a mobile barber service. There's a page on the website which displays all the barbers on the service. Each barber has a hidden 'div' containing their booking calendar, this appears when they click on a barber (using JavaScript). The booking calendar is a 3rd party booking system, and I input the barber's specific calendar url into the model form and then display it in the template like so: <iframe class="booking-system" src="{{BarberProfile.booking_link}}" frameBorder="0"></iframe><script src="https://d3gxy7nm8y4yjr.cloudfront.net/js/embed.js" type="text/javascript"></script> My problem is, when a barber is clicked, it displays all the 'divs' containing all of the barbers booking calendars. How can I only show the booking calendar of the barber that is clicked, and hide all of the other barber's booking calendars that are not clicked? An example of the page, and the 'div' containing the booking calendar: I am very new to web development but have a pretty solid understanding of HTML & CSS, but a weak understanding of JavaScript so please be very clear in your suggestions. I am unsure if the solution to this will lie in Django views, JavaScript, or CSS. My current code (I have edited out some which is irrelevant to this question): … -
django freetds MSSQL encoding error
I have a Django app running on Ubuntu that connects to a MSSQL server to extract table info and show it on a webpage. I'm using FreeTDS for the connection. When a line of information contains an 'ë' the whole line gets removed. So I tried to fix it by adding "client charset = UTF-8" to /etc/freetds/freetds.conf. But after that "fix" the app stops running and I get this error: [42000] [FreeTDS][SQL Server]Unclosed quotation mark after the character string \'ondersteuningsco\'. (105) (SQLExecDirectW)') The next character after "ondersteuningsco" is an 'ë' so I think this error is not a coincidence. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? The characterset of the MSSQL server is SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS but I cannot change that. -

Properly configuring user registration using 2 forms
