How to Patch an User Model of Django with Django RF?
I have UserProfile model that contains phone, profile_photo and some fields of Django default User model like first_name, last_name, email and I am trying to update some of these fields. models.py class UserProfile(models.Model): user = models.ForeignKey(User, verbose_name="User") phone = models.CharField(max_length=16, verbose_name="Phone") profile_photo = models.ImageField(null=True, blank=True, upload_to=user_directory_path, verbose_name="Profile Photo") serializers.py class UserSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = User fields = ('url', 'first_name', 'last_name', 'email') class UserProfileSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): user = UserSerializer(partial=True) class Meta: model = UserProfile fields = '__all__' def create(self, validated_data): user_profile = UserProfile.objects.create(**validated_data) return user_profile views.py class UserProfileViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet): queryset = UserProfile.objects.all() serializer_class = UserProfileSerializer authentication_classes = (TokenAuthentication,) @detail_route(methods=['PATCH'], url_path='update-partial') def user_profile_update_partial(self, request, pk=None): profile = UserProfile.objects.get(id=pk) serializer = self.get_serializer(profile, data=request.data, partial=True) if serializer.is_valid(): serializer.save() return Response(serializer.data, status=status.HTTP_202_ACCEPTED) else: return Response(status=status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST) If I send profile_photo, phone, first_name or last_name data with this @detail_route I am only able to update phone and profile_photo fields. Also getting Bad Request error when profile_photo data not sending. How can I implement the partial_update with PATCH method? -
Is there a easy way to get the double level related_name instances in Django Queryset?
I have three models bellow: class AModel(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=11) class BModel(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=11) a = models.ForeignKey(AModel, related_name="bs") class CModel(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=11) b = models.ForeignKey(BModel, related_name="cs") If I have a AModel instance, if I want to get all the cmodel instances of it, I will use a forloop: c_list = [] for b in a.bs: for c in b.cs: c_list.append(c) But, whether there is a easy way to get all the cmodel instances of a? -
Django use dynamic choices in model by foreignkey
I have a model; for concern to this question it matters two field one is foreignkey to other model Plan and other is choicefield as shown below: class MyModel(models.Model): CHOICES = ( (1, 'A1'), (2, 'A2'), (3, 'B1'), (4, 'B2'), ) category = models.IntegerField(choices=CHOICES, default=3) has_plan = models.ForeignKey(Plan, on_delete=models.CASCADE) Below is my Plan model: class Plan(models.Model): PLAN_CHOICES = [(1, "Individual"), (2, "Company")] plan_name = models.IntegerField(choices=PLAN_CHOICES, default=2) plan_validity = models.IntegerField(default=180, help_text="Days after plan expires") I want to update CHOICES which are to be available in category field of MyModel depending on selection of has_plan. Consider if has_plan points to Plan object with plan_name; (2, "Company") then CHOICES are to be updated to: CHOICES = ( (1, 'A1'), (2, 'A2'), (3, 'A3'), (4, 'B1'), (5, 'B2'), ) I can achieve this in views with help of form fields but in that case I have to handle it for view and admin both hence I am looking for a better and simpler way to achieve this. I am able to raise error with clean() method in model but I want to update CHOICES instead of just raising an exception. -

Save parent and child model object together
I use Django 2.0 and mysql database and my project model is like: class Parent(models.Model): name = models.CharField() class Child(models.Model): number = models.IntegerField() parent = models.ForeignKey(Parent) what I want is to save both parent and child object together at the same time so that if in any case the child object has error(like number field is "some text") and can not be saved the parent object doesn't save. if Flask sqlalchemy there is add(object) and add_all([parent, child]) methods and I used add_all so if child has error parent doesn't save neither. but in Django I couldn't find this method. the default method is: parent = Parent(name = "my name") parent.save() child = Child(number=3, parent=parent) child.save() what I want is something like this: parent = Parent(name = "my name") child = Child(number=3, parent=parent) and then: child.save(with related parent) or: save(parent, child together) PS: I read this link but I couldn't figure it out: django relations -
Writing to HEROKU logs in Django
I've created a project in Django and have deployed it to HEROKU. Unfortunately, a number of things that were working locally, now don't work on HEROKU. To troubleshoot I need to be able to write to the Heroku logs when my program runs so that I can troubleshoot better. So far I have not gotten it to work My settings/staging.py file contains: LOGGING = { 'version': 1, 'disable_existing_loggers': False, 'handlers': { 'console': { 'class': 'logging.StreamHandler', }, }, 'loggers': { 'django': { 'handlers': ['console'], 'level': os.getenv('DJANGO_LOG_LEVEL', 'DEBUG'), }, }, } I have an APP called accounts, so my accounts/views.py file contains: import logging log = logging.getLogger(__name__) def auth_profile(request): log.debug('TESTING THE DEBUGGER') When auth_profile is accessed I want to see the text 'TESTING THE DEBUGGER' show up in the Heroku logs, but so far I get nothing. How do I get this to work? -
Django Sitemap.xml and Robots.txt
I've tried set sitemap.xml and robots.txt up on my django project but it doesn't go well. I've already followed some tutorials I could find on the Internet, but none of them works for my case. Errors are basically about "non-existing template" even after I've tried to replace these files to all different directories. So I don't really get what the reason against it. I know I'm asking a very stupid question, but could someone recommend me any good tutorial to sort this out from the beginning Thanks a lot!!! -

How to get multi-valued url parameters with request.GET in django template?
I'm just wondering if there is a way to obtain multi-valued URL parameters in Django Template. For example you can get a parameter from an URL like below, http://127.0.0.1:8000/list/?search=SomeValue&color=Red with the code: {{ request.GET.search }} But when it comes to multi-valued parameters like: http://127.0.0.1:8000/list/fuel_types=Benzin&fuel_types=Dizel&fuel_types=LPG I couldn't find a way to obtain it in template. I know that I can get the values in views.py and send it to template with the code: request.GET.getlist('fuel_types') But I want to know if there is a way to achieve that in Django Template without using views.py Thanks! -

How to configure django with xampp mysql?
I'm new at Django. After configuring the settings when I tried to migrate with mysql then it said "Did you install mysqlclient or MySQL-python?" I have already xampp installed on my machine so I don't want to install mysql server again and mysql is running well on xampp. Then I've installed "python-mysqldb" for mysql binding. But the same error again. After that I've installed mysqlclient as the error then ran the migrate again but now its saying I don't have a mysql server. But the mysql is running on xampp. What should I do? Should I install mysql server? There is no way to use xampp? I didn't find any useful article on google about that.

django cookiecutter extending base.html wipes out my web page
I am working on a project that I started in June 2017 with the cookiecutter I had just installed. At the time, with respect to django, I was an absolute beginner. (I am a bit more advanced by now, but just a bit.) Cookiecutter put a base.html in the templates directory (one level above the app subdirectories). For a list of model rows, I have a template that works all by itself, as follows: {% if brand_list %} <ul> {% for brand in brand_list %} <li><a href="/brands/{{ brand.id }}/">{{ brand.cTitle }}</a></li> {% endfor %} </ul> {% else %} <p>No brands are available.</p> {% endif %} But, if I put this at the top, I do not get the list:: {% extends "base.html" %} What I get instead is the project root webpage, the one at /. Is this base.html the problem, or something else? -
Session Variable destroyed only in chrome python django
I have my session caches set up like so in the base.py settings file: CACHES = { "default": { "BACKEND": "django_redis.cache.RedisCache", "LOCATION": "redis://127.0.0.1:6379/0", "OPTIONS": { "CLIENT_CLASS": "django_redis.client.DefaultClient" }, "KEY_PREFIX": "samy_python" } } SESSION_ENGINE = 'django.contrib.sessions.backends.cache' I set my session in the @csrf_exempt callback view like so: if request.method == 'GET': code = request.GET.get('code') # Get Code from parameter request.session['code'] = code # Set Code to session return redirect('/close/') # Close Window I know it is set because I will use a logger and log the code. The close.html is this: <script> window.open('', '_self', ''); window.close(); </script> However, when I catch the close in another html file and post to a different view, the "request.session.get('code')" is empty. This only happening on chrome so far. Does anyone know why this is happening? I have found a few ways to solve it, buy working around it doesn't seem right. Esp if it works just fine in firefox... Thank you. -
Global Variable in Django?
I am writing a Django project which will use Chrome Headless to produce PDF documents. There are lots of Apps, each of which will produce PDFs, so it made sense to have a class, that launches Chrome, makes a connection to it, and kills the Chrome process when the class is deleted. There will be a class method, which opens a new tab, renders some HTML, and returns the PDF data, and closes the tab. It seems slightly inefficient to create a new instance of the Class, every time I want to print a PDF (which is the primary purpose of the project). It seems better to create a global instance of the Class, and have one copy of headless Chrome running the whole time, rather than starting Chrome, connecting to it, getting the PDF data, and then closing everything every time. Other posts on this issue, suggest that any kind of global variable (aside from some constants in settings) is a bad idea. In this particular case, is this still a bad idea? Why is this the case? Importantly, is there an alternative approach? -

The diminishing of my python knowledge? [on hold]
I learned the basics of python and jumped into Django, I like both. I start to get deeper into Django but somehow feeling the opposite goes with python as a pure language, I feel like that Django would make me no python developer like know how to work with the language itself without any framework. Should I quit the Django for now and start-over with python until getting a good knowledge of problem-solving, or I will learn more about python along the way and this is just an illusions. -
