How to make AmChart follow synchronize with video element
I am currently working on a project that uses https://www.amcharts.com and I am trying to synchronize a <video> element's "currentTime" to the chart's cursor. Similar to this example with audio: https://www.amcharts.com/kbase/sync-chart-cursor-html5-audio/ In the example above, the audio emits the currentTime event with the current audio time, then converts the time to a format to an argument in chart.chartCursor.showCursorAt(time) In my example below, once the currentTime emits, the cursor goes all the way to the end of the graph and stays there. How can I make it so the video's "currentTime" hover's over the corresponding time in the chart? <script> $(document).ready(function(){ var chart = AmCharts.makeChart( "chartdiv", { "type": "stock", "theme": "light", "categoryAxesSettings": { "minPeriod": "ss", // set minimum to milliseconds "groupToPeriods": [ 'ss' ] // specify period grouping }, "dataSets": [ {% for l, c in labels %} { "title": "{{ l|safe }}", "color": "{{ c }}", "fieldMappings": [ { "fromField": "prominence", "toField": "prominence" } ], "dataLoader": { "url": "/data/csv/calc/{{ l|quote }}.csv", "format": "csv", "delimiter": ",", "useColumnNames": true, "skip": 1 }, "categoryField": "time" }{% if not loop.last %},{% endif %} {% endfor %} ], "panels": [ { "title": "Prominence", "percentHeight": 70, "stockGraphs": [ { "id": "g1", "valueField": "prominence", "lineThickness": 2, "bullet": … -
How to use --keepdb when run the commond "python manage.py test"?
First seeing this page:https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/topics/testing/overview/#the-test-database I understand like this: 1 - when I run test commond like python manage.py test --keepdb,the test database would be saved. 2 - But if I use the sqlite ,the test databases would default be maked in memory.It means ,although I used the --keepdb,without setting others,the test databases would not save. 3 - If I use except sqlite, the test databses would happend in the filesystem,which means I can seem the database in a file or by the sql-control-tools. (ps:If I had a wrong though,point it out please~) Then,I try like this: 1 - use sqlite. 2 - make a table. 3 - write a test which save some datas to the table. 4 - try commond with --keepdb The result was predictable：I do not see a file or see the test database or test tables in control-tools. It may be ,test databases or tables build in memory ? So,here comes the questions below: 1 - If I use the sqlite,what should I do or change settings so that I can save the test datas I can see by eyes? Thanks~ -

mutation error, Unknown argument \"barcode\" on field \"createProduct\" of type \"Mutation\" - django
I am doing tutorials online and trying to make mutation works on graphql but I kept on getting errors which I have no idea what where the real error comes from and how to start debugging where I have done wrong. looking at this youtube for mutation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aB6c7UUMrPo&t=1962s and the graphene documentation http://docs.graphene-python.org/en/latest/types/mutations/ I noticed that because of different graphene version, that is why I have reading the documentation instead of following exactly as the youtube I got things setup but then couldn't get it to work, when I execute the mutation query I get error.

Python logging writing to multiple separate log files
I have a Django web application that runs a bunch of helper scripts. Each of these scripts writes its own log. I am noticing that the scripts are writing to each others logs. These scripts are launched by separate users/sessions. Whats going on? Here is the implementation of the logger within ScriptA import logging logging.basicConfig(format='%(asctime)s %(message)s',filename='/var/logs/scriptA.log',level=logging.DEBUG) same for scriptB but say someone runs scriptB, it writes to scriptA.log instead of scriptB.log it seems logging is created a shared global module. How can I stop this EDIT: most solutions here are for 2 separate logs within the same class. my issue is separate scripts/classes writing to each others logs -

Django create user account via URL
I'm currently working with some people to develop an application that will display a "sound library" when the user selects an option on their voip phone. The idea is that the phone system will pass a url with a device id in it, and that will open the django app to the users' library. I was told to remove login/user authentication in order to make the process easier for the user. My question is, is there a way to create a user field and save the model for future retrieval via the url request alone? Do I need to pass the device id to some hidden form first and redirect to the main page, and query the users' objects via the device id? I know there are security concerns but was wondering if it's even possible, any help is appreciated! -
Browser Not Picking Up Changes - Not a Cache Issue
I had a django webpage that worked. Then I started running Chrome audits and consequently added media and defer tags to several of my scripts. I then removed the tags, and now my page is still loading the scripts as if the tags are still in there. It also will not pick up any other changes to the html (i.e. title change). I have tried different browsers. I have tried clearing my cache. I have tried incognito tabs. The request is a 200 request. I am using Atom as my code editor and hosting on IIS. I have checked numerous times to ensure I am working on the correct file - comparing the document tree in IIS to the Windows Explorer document tree.

django models date day is filtered to the day before
I have a model with a DateTimeField, and I have set it to Nov 20 2017 In [23]: my_obj.date_field Out[23]: datetime.datetime(2017, 11, 20, 0, 0, 1, tzinfo=datetime.timezone.utc) But when I try to retrieve by selecting the objects with date_field's day = 20, Django does not find the element In [11]: MyObj.objects.filter(date_field__day=20) Out[11]: <QuerySet []> However, if I select the elements with date_field's day = 19, it does find my object. In [12]: Regime.objects.filter(start_date__day=19) Out[12]: <QuerySet [my_obj]> Can someone explain this weird behavior? Is this expected behavior? -
Multiple inheritance from abstract classes with same parent but different child? django
I have read few threads and know that for sure django can have multiple abstract classes. But pretty much all the samples I saw are... class AbsOne(models.Model): pass class AbsTwo(models.Model): pass class AbsThree(AbsOne, AbsTwo): pass but what if I have something like... class AbsOne(models.Model): pass class AbsTwo(AbsOne): // this actually inheritance AbsOne pass class AbsThree(AbsOne): // this inheritance AbsOne pass What if I need to inheritance both AbsTwo, AbsThree but these two are also inheritance to the same parent. class AbsFour(AbsTwo, AbsThree): pass Is this doable without any conflict or extra fields?

Facebook Page Feed Webhook troubleshoot
I have setup the facebook webhook integration, using the facebook developer platform guidelines. I am currently recieving post requests via a django application. Even though at the beginning I would get a post request everytime I posted a new message on my page feed, I eventually stopped getting them. At the moment, the only feed messages that I'm getting via my webhook, are the ones that you can send from the webhook subscription test options. Is there a rate limit as to how many posts facebook will allow to post in an unpublished page? Any and all information will be appreciated. -

Django Updating a Value before a Save
I'm trying to update a counter in a model to save database queries. So I have an article model with a picture_count field. Pictures are m2m with the article. When every I add or remove a picture from the article (using Django Admin) I want to update the article picture_count. But it seems that I'm going about it wrong. I thought I could simply override the save method of my article model. But this doesn't work as the def save(self, *args, **kwargs): self.picCount = self.pictures.count() super(Articles, self).save(*args, **kwargs) # Call the "real" save() method. The problem is that the m2m haven't been updated yet. I have tried calling it after (then calling save again) but the object is outdated. Should I refresh the object and save it again or is there a better place to update this count? -

Django 'url' template tag incorrectly escapes the question mark
We recently upgraded from Django 1.9 to 1.10, and now the following problem appeared: urls.py: url(r'^search/(?:\?q=(?P<q>[^&]*))?$', views.search, {'q': ''}, name='search'), Template: <a href="{% url 'issues:search' "foobar" %}">Issues</a> With Django 1.9, the result was https://127.0.0.1/issues/search/?q=foobar Since Django 1.10, this results in the following URL: https://127.0.0.1/issues/search/%3Fq=foobar As a result, links that contain query parameters do not work anymore. How can this be made to work with Django 1.10? -
NameError in Django simple search
I have a simple search in my Django project. I want to search through documents using their type and part of factory info in addition to search by name.

POST values are:Part '1', Name 'Example', Type '1'. If I delete Type==request.POST['Type']| Part==request.POST['Part'] then search by name works well. So I have a guess that problem is about searching by foreign key values, but have no ideas more. Will appreciate any help. -

Django ImageField changes some characters in the file name unexpectedly
I am using ImageField field in my model with a custom function for the upload path as following: featured_image = models.ImageField( upload_to=custom_path, blank=True, null=True) where custom_path is defined as following: def custom_path(instance, filename): return 'post_images/{0}/{1}/{2}/{3}'.format(instance.publication_datetime.strftime('%Y'), instance.publication_datetime.strftime('%b'), instance.slug, filename) The problem is that when I upload a file with a name of "سائل-أن" (which is in Arabic), the name gets converted to "سايل-ان" which has two different characters from the original name ("ئـ" is converted to "يـ", and "أ" is converted to "ا"). I think that the problem is with how Django gets the filename parameter that is sent to custom_path because slug won't be modified if it has the same "problematic" name ("سائل-أن"). The letters that get converted are normal Arabic letters that are used millions of times on the internet. I've searched in Django documentation and source code, but I couldn't know the cause of the problem. -
urls.pyc and views.pyc files do not auto update
I'm new to django and have been going through tutorials on udemy and on the django website. I'm using a virtual environment and Bash on Ubuntu Windows. My issue is that when I update code in any views.py / urls.py files for my project it doesn't "compile" in the .pyc files. So say I add a home page to my urls list I get an error that the page was not found. Once I go back and delete the .pyc files though I can access a home page (or what ever page) I've added. My work around at the moment is that I wrote a python script to delete the .pyc files.
