VSCode Django HTML, JS, CSS guide for proper autocomplete and linting
I need some help here, hopefully in the proper place for this. Googled my eyes out in the last few weeks but havent come across a proper solution to configure VSCode properly. There is tons of talented coders out the who make awesome extensions, but its getting overwhelming and confusing sometimes. Im learning Python and Django, unable to have proper Linting and autocorrect to work with Django HTML. Found many bits of pieces on one or other part configurations but looking for something complete. Bootstrap, CSS, Javascript autocomplete not working when document type set to Django HTML or Django template tags not working when set to HTML. What is the best configuration for Python, Javascript, CSS, Django HTML ? I like to auto suggest of Bootstrap classes, JavaScript snippets and CSS properties but they dont work when Django HTML selected, the opposite when doc type set to HTML. Loosing my mind over this and probably need to delete all VSCode config or even the whole app and start it fresh but looking for a proper guide/tutorial to follow first.... -
Attach, display and submit forms to each product id displayed within a for loop (Django)
I am looking to integrate a form to each product, included within a loop. Each form is independent for the others: if one form is submitted, the others wont need to be. Currently the form is not validating. I think it's because I haven't managed to attach the form to the specific product id and I am not sure how to do that. When applying a form to a specific Id on a single page, I would simply proceed with def function(request, product_id). This is not an option here, as I am displaying several products on the same page. models.py class ReviewRating(models.Model): user = models.ForeignKey(User,blank=True, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name="usercomments") product=models.ForeignKey(Product,related_name="comments", on_delete=models.CASCADE) review =models.TextField(max_length=250, blank=True) rating =models.IntegerField(choices=RATING, default=0) forms.py class ReviewForm(forms.ModelForm): venue = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset = Venue.objects.all(),required=False) class Meta: model = ReviewRating fields = ['review', 'rating','venue'] widgets = { 'venue': forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'form-select', 'placeholder':'Enter name'}), } views.py def show_event(request, event_id): submitted = False form = '' form = 'ReviewForm' if request.method =="POST": form = ReviewForm(request.POST) if form .is_valid(): data = form .save(commit=False) data.product_id = product_id #<-- How do I define product_id? data.user_id = request.user.id data.save() else : print(form .errors) else: form = ReviewForm() event = Event.objects.get(pk=event_id) categories = Product.objects.filter(event=event_id) menu = event.product.filter(event=event_id) return render(request, 'main/show_event.html',{'event':event, 'categories':categories,'menu':menu,'form':form,'submitted':submitted}) … -

Update model instance foreign key field upon creation of an instance of another model
I have two models, Profile, and BusinessProfile. One Business Profile can be accessed by multiple users (via profiles model which is linked to user model). I am trying to build so that the logged in user can create a business profile, which I have done. However, I am having trouble working out how to update the "Business" ForeignKey field within the Profile model, with the BusinessProfile id field as the value, upon creation of the BusinessProfile model instance by that user.

Implementing django-recaptcha in Django project with a custom user and django-allauth
I need help implementing django-recapcha in a Django project that has a custom user and also has django-allauth. When I first set up this project I set up a custom user, as it is the recommendation from the official Django site.(https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/topics/auth/customizing/#using-a-custom-user-model-when-starting-a-project). After that I implemented django-allauth for authentication. Now I want to implement django-recapctha and I haven't found the right way to do it. I don't know how I should configure the forms.py file, because I don't understand well what is happening with this combination of custom user and django-allauth. Which is the form I should edit to configure django-recapcha and from which app? When I configured the custom user I did it as follows: I created an app called accounts. I created accounts/models.py with the following code: from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser from django.db import models class CustomUser(AbstractUser): profile_pic = models.ImageField(default='default.jpg', upload_to='profile_pics') I created accounts/forms.py with the following code: from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm, UserChangeForm class CustomUserCreationForm(UserCreationForm): class Meta: model = get_user_model() fields = ( 'email', 'username', ) class CustomUserChangeForm(UserChangeForm): class Meta: model = get_user_model() fields = ( 'email', 'username', ) Then I added the following to settings.py: AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'accounts.CustomUser' The django-recaptcha instructions indicate that I … -

Nextcloud and Django (static) website aside behind nginx-proxy issue
First of all, i'm a beginner in networking and with web services in general. Context : i've a domain name : mydomain.com and a VPS server (with Ubuntu) with a fixed IPV4 adress : MYIPADRESS. In my VPS provider control panel , i've binded mydomain.com to MYVPSIPADRESS with an entry A. Only one domain is binded to MYIPADRESS. Objective : I want to host two webservices on my VPS : a nextcloud instance and my blog that is a Django static website, all set up with HTTPS. I want that my nextcloud instance points to cloud.mydomain.com and my blog Django instance to blog.mydomain.com. To do so, i'm using docker. Basically, i'm using the nginx-proxy server + its letsencrypt companion. Once done, i run my docker container for my django blog with env variables according to nginx-proxy documentation and put my blog container in the same network as nginx-proxy and its letsencrypt companion networks. At each time, without detaching my images , logs do not show me any warnings/"exited with 1"/red-written rows stuffs whether with blog container or nginx-proxy/letsencrypt companion container. I did not try to put my nextcloud instance so far since just my blog container setup does not work. … -

Django Rest Framework viewset mypy error: Missing positional argument
Here is a problem, when testing method from drf viewsets with @action() decorator, mypy gives error expecting additional argument (which is self param). Here it is: # views.py class UserViewSet(RetrieveModelMixin, ListModelMixin, UpdateModelMixin, GenericViewSet): serializer_class = UserSerializer queryset = User.objects.all() lookup_field = "username" def get_queryset(self, *args, **kwargs): assert isinstance(self.request.user.id, int) return self.queryset.filter(id=self.request.user.id) @action(detail=False) def me(self, request: WSGIRequest): serializer = UserSerializer(request.user, context={"request": request}) return Response(status=status.HTTP_200_OK, data=serializer.data) # test_views.py def test_me(self, user: User, rf: RequestFactory): view = UserViewSet() request = Request(rf.get("/fake-url/")) request.user = user view.request = request response = view.me(request) # The problem is here assert response.data == { "username": user.username, "name": user.name, "url": f"http://testserver/api/users/{user.username}/", } and the log is: drf_project\users\tests\test_drf_views.py:25: error: Missing positional argument "request" in call to "me" of "UserViewSet" drf_project\users\tests\test_drf_views.py:25: note: "__call__" is considered instance variable, to make it class variable use ClassVar[...] drf_project\users\tests\test_drf_views.py:25: error: Argument 1 to "me" of "UserViewSet" has incompatible type "Request"; expected "UserViewSet" How can I solve this except ignoring it with type: ignore[]? The probem is that @action decorator in viewset changes the type of method, without it mypy is okay. However @action() ruins it. I need to overcome this, any suggestions? -
Django 3.0 admin searching for different models fields
I faced with some problems with project which I had now... I have different models with included structure (one category can have multiple subcategories) and I want to implement searching by each field which I had in model... now it looks like this code working only for 1st level categories: from django.contrib import admin from .models import * def register_models(models_list): for model, fields in models_list.items(): model_fields = () for field in model._meta.fields: if field.name in fields: model_fields = (field.name, *model_fields) class Admin(admin.ModelAdmin): list_display = ('__str__', *model_fields) list_filter = model_fields search_fields = [*model_fields] admin.site.register(model, Admin) Question, is it possible somehow to implement searching for my structure with many subcategories?

Django. Increment views count of object without affecting its updated_at field
I have the following model: class Announcement(models.Model): ... created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) updated_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) views = models.PositiveIntegerField(default=0, editable=False) my view: class AnnouncementDetailView(DetailView): model = Announcement context_object_name = 'announcement' template_name = 'web/index.html' def get(self, *args, **kwargs): announcement = get_object_or_404(Announcement, id=kwargs['id']) announcement.views += 1 announcement.save() return super().get(self, *args, **kwargs) The problems are: I know about the F expression, I'll use it down below, but I want to know another ways of updating field and not updating the updated_at field. I want to save the changes of model's views field but everytime I save it, it sets the new value to updated_at field. It means everytime I refresh the page it shows the current time on updated_at field, which is very bad. I have changed my view's code to: ... def get(self, *args, **kwargs): Announcement.objects.filter(id=kwargs['id']).update(views=F('views') + 1) return super().get(self, *args, **kwargs) Now it works fine but I have several questions. How it saves the new value of views field without calling the save method of """"Django"""""? How far can I go with it. What is the best practices of changing some fields of model without hitting the save method? Thanks in advance for broad explanation! -
