Why is there both a create_user and a _create_user method in django.contrib.auth.models.UserManager
In the source for django, there is a UserManager class whose job (as far as I understand) is to create users according to a number of received parameters and save them to the database. The class accomplishes this with the use of two methods. One method create_user and one method _create_user, the latter is called by the former. My question is, why the need for two methods? Why not simply have one that does the exact same thing? Like this: def create_user(self, username, email=None, password=None, **extra_fields): """ Creates and saves a User with the given username, email and password. """ now = timezone.now() if not username: raise ValueError('The given username must be set') email = self.normalize_email(email) user = self.model(username=username, email=email, is_staff=False, is_active=True, is_superuser=False, date_joined=now, **extra_fields) user.set_password(password) user.save(using=self._db) return user -
Django HttpResponse with application/zip type corrupt
When I log the request in my frontend, I see characters like this: PKS/L'�I�rrQUsers/my/local/dev_env/django_app/webapp/webapp/csvs/mailMagaOutput.csv会員id,e-mail,お名前(姓),お名前(名),購入回数 And the response logs the rest of the CSV files I am trying to log as the way they should look... Does this mean that I am not properly encrypting them? The response I am sending (from Django): zipped_file = zipfile.ZipFile("csvOutput.zip", 'w') zipped_file.write(sms_file_path) zipped_file.write(mail_maga_file_path) zipped_file.close() response_file = open('csvOutput.zip', 'rb') response = HttpResponse(response_file, content_type="application/zip") response['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment; filename=csvOutput.zip"' If I try to unzip the file that python generates on the server, it works just fine. When I try to unzip it locally, I am getting: tar: Too-small extra data: Need at least 4 bytes, but only found 3 bytes -

Python3 Django ZipFile HttpResponse UnicodeDecodeError
I created a zip file like so: zipped_file = zipfile.ZipFile("csvOutput{}.zip".format(timestamp), 'w') zipped_file.write(sms_file_path) zipped_file.write(mail_maga_file_path) zipped_file.close() And want to send it, which I am currently using this code: response_file = open('csvOutput{}.zip'.format(timestamp)) response = HttpResponse(response_file, content_type="application/force-download") response['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment; filename=csvOutput{}.zip"'.format(timestamp) return response raise Http404 But maybe something I am using is out of date? Python keeps crashing with a byte it can't decode in unicode: UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x94 in position 14: invalid start byte Says line 100 is throwing the error, which would be the line with HttpResponse() Edit: I've changed the content_type to application/zip and am getting a new error (that seems better?): caution: zipfile comment truncated error [output.zip]: missing 3232109644 bytes in zipfile (attempting to process anyway) error [output.zip]: attempt to seek before beginning of zipfile (please check that you have transferred or created the zipfile in the appropriate BINARY mode and that you have compiled UnZip properly) -
How do I get the existing value of the fields in a django form when going back in the browser?
I have a django form which has two select fields the second one being dynamic dependent on the value of the first. The values for the second select is loaded via ajax after the first one is selected. Although this works fine it breaks when going back in the browser. The value for the first select appear but nothing in the second (onchange event not happened yet). However rather than load these in the front event I would rather load these in django via the form, if there is a value in the first select. In the debugger when I go back in the browser it generates a GET request, not a POST and so the form is not bound and has no self.data. How do I get the existing value of the fields in a django form when going back in the browser? (note I am using session with database backend) -

How to verify password if use rest-auth?
I use the rest-auth to login my User. But there is a new function there, I want user can lock the screen( user have been login), and then if the user want to unlock the screen, he must type in the password, then the backend should verify the password whether is correct. You know this is not login, this is compare the encrypted password to the database, I don't know the django-rest-auth encrypted type. How to verify the password in this scenario? -
Do I really need to put my website inside an app with Django?
I am trying to build a new big project using Django. Thing is, I want most of the content on the main page 127.0.0.1:8000 and not 127.0.0.1:8000/myapp. I know I can build everything also outside of an app, but is it a good practice ? Or what to do here ? Thanks. -
How a server handles requests asynchronously
I understand this is basic but was not able to connect. Suppose a django-server(hosted on a linux system with 3gb ram and 1vCPU) is serving a request (say R1) which takes around 1700ms. and during this execution at 100ms a request R2 comes in. Here, the server is already busy handling R1. So will R2 have to wait for 1700ms - 100ms = 1600ms? How is this handled? Is there something like instances(as in aws) which solves this? -
Django Response Middleware: Get name of view which created the response
I have simple middleware which checks if the HTML in the response is valid or not. If the HTML is not valid an html is not valid" exception gets raised in development systems. Up to now the xception contains the URL and the validation error. Then the developer sees the URL in the well known yellow and gray django debug page. Maybe I am blind, but if I look at the django debug page, I can't see which of my methods/views created the content with the broken html. Is there a way to add more information to the "html is not valid" exception, to assist the developer? The developer should find the relevant method/view easier. -
Django Python3 End-of-central-directory signature not found

Use Logging SocketHandler with Django
I've configured my logging as so: LOGGING = { 'version': 1, 'disable_existing_loggers': False, 'handlers': { 'console': { 'class': 'logging.StreamHandler', }, 'cute':{ 'class': 'logging.handlers.SocketHandler', 'host': '127.0.0.1', 'port': 19996 }, }, 'loggers': { 'django': { 'handlers': ['cute'], 'level': os.getenv('DJANGO_LOG_LEVEL', 'INFO'), }, }, } But when I try and log out I get an error in the console: TypeError: an integer is required (got type socket) This seems to be happening within an attempt to pickle the log message, I think.

Showing and hiding menu items in django based on a non-permissions criteria?
I have a field on a Company called leave_approvers which is a ManyToManyField to Users. The leave_approvers can approve leave of other users in the company they are a leave approver for. They also receive an email when leave is requested. I would now like to show or hide the Approve Leave tab in the main layout based on whether the user is a leave_approver. Is the decision to have a leave_approver field flawed as I should be using the built in authorisation or something like django-guardian. Note that I am sending an email to the leave_approvers and that would mean Can I just make a query in the base.html to check if a user is a leave_approver. How can this be done and surely there is a performance hit?
