Can't set multiple forign keys in one table in django models
Actually my code is like, Models.py class Employee(models.Model): employee_code = models.IntegerField(unique=True,primary_key=True) employee_name = models.CharField(max_length=50,unique=True) class LeaveRequest(models.Model): emp_name = models.ForeignKey(Employee, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='empl_name') emp_code = models.ForeignKey(Employee, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='emp_code',default='') leave_type = models.CharField(choices=( ('CL', 'Casual leave'), ('SL', 'Sick leave'), ('ML', 'Medical leave'), ('Comp off', 'Compensation') ),default='',max_length=20) serializers.py class EmployeeSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = Employee fields = '__all__' class LeaverequestSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = LeaveRequest fields = '__all__' Views.py class Empcreate(CreateAPIView): # permission_classes = [IsAuthenticated] serializer_class = EmployeeSerializer def post(self, request): serializer = self.get_serializer(data=request.data) serializer.is_valid(raise_exception=True) serializer.save() return Response({ "user": serializer.data, "message": "User Created Successfully..!", }) class Leaverequest(CreateAPIView): serializer_class = LeaverequestSerializer def post(self, request): serializer = self.get_serializer(data=request.data) serializer.is_valid(raise_exception=True) serializer.save() return Response({ "user": serializer.data, "message": "Request Created Successfully..!", }) Actually since i mapped two foreign keys from same table(emp_name and code),there is the problem arriving. whenever i create request in leave request module, emp_name also showing emp_code as shown in the image below. But i want to display the name, can anyone suggest resolution for this, also how can i set different conditions for different leave types, where to create the conditions ? serializers or views? is for loop good option for creating different conditions of leave types? -

Why do I need to run the second loop to get the sigle value in django?
The project was to create a filter page where users can filter the model data based on their chosen criteria. The whole thing is working but a specific part is not clear and not making sense. Here is my model- class Author(models.Model): name=models.CharField(max_length=30) def __str__(self): return self.name class Kategory(models.Model): name=models.CharField(max_length=20) def __str__(self): return self.name class Data(models.Model): title=models.CharField(max_length=120) author=models.ForeignKey(Author, on_delete=models.CASCADE) categories=models.ManyToManyField(Kategory) publish_date=models.DateTimeField() views=models.IntegerField(default=0) reviewed=models.BooleanField(default=False) def __str__(self): return self.title Data is the main model while Author was added as ForeignKey and Kategory as many to many fields. My main issue is around this categories field in Data model which has many to many relationship with Kategory model. Here is my views.py file- # This view is for the filter page def is_valid_queryparam(param): return param !='' and param is not None def filter(request): qs=Data.objects.all() kategory=Kategory.objects.all() title_contains_query=request.GET.get('title_contains') id_exact_query=request.GET.get('id_exact') title_or_author_query=request.GET.get('title_or_author') view_count_min=request.GET.get('view_count_min') view_count_max=request.GET.get('view_count_max') date_min=request.GET.get('date_min') date_max=request.GET.get('date_max') category=request.GET.get('category') if is_valid_queryparam(title_contains_query): qs=qs.filter(title__icontains=title_contains_query) if is_valid_queryparam(id_exact_query): qs=qs.filter(id=id_exact_query) if is_valid_queryparam(title_or_author_query): qs=qs.filter(Q(title__icontains=title_or_author_query) | Q(author__name__icontains=title_or_author_query)) if is_valid_queryparam(view_count_min): qs=qs.filter(views__gte=view_count_min) if is_valid_queryparam(view_count_max): qs=qs.filter(views__lte=view_count_max) if is_valid_queryparam(date_min): qs=qs.filter(publish_date__gte=date_min) if is_valid_queryparam(date_max): qs=qs.filter(publish_date__lte=date_max) if is_valid_queryparam(category): qs=qs.filter(categories=category) test=Data.objects.only('author') context={'queryset':qs, 'kategory':kategory, 'test':test} return render(request, 'myapp/filter.html', context) As you can see in the views.py that I have 2 variables holding all of Data and Kategory model data.

Run and follow remote Python script execution from Django website
I am running a Django website where user can perform some light calculation. This website is hosted in a Docker container on one of our server. I would like now to add the ability for the users to run some more complicated simulations from the same website. These simulations will have to run on a dedicated calculation machine (they will run in parallel for a several hours/days) under Ubuntu server in the same network. What will be the best way to achieve this? Send the calculation to the calculation serverand send them back automatically to Django? How can I follow the status of the calculation (waiting, calculating, finished) from the Django instance? Should I use a job scheduler on the calculation server? This is close to this question that was asked in 2014, so there might be more actual solutions. -

Find all objects of a certain class who do not have any active links with other objects
I have a class A which is used as a Foreign Key in many other classes. class A(): pass class B(): a: A = ForeignKey(A) class C(): other_name: A = ForeignKey(A) Now I have a database with a huge table of A objects and many classes like B and C who reference A (say potentially dozens). In this table, there are many objects (100k+) and I want to clean up all objects that are not actively referenced by other objects with a Foreign Key. For example, object 1 of class A is not referenced by class B and C. How would I do this? I already came up with the following code: a_list: list = list() classes: list[tuple] = [(B, "a"), (C, "other_name")] for cl, field in classes: field_object: Field = cl._meta.get_field(field) for obj in cl.objects.all(): a: A = field_object.value_from_object(obj) a_list.append(a) to_remove: list[A] = [a for a in A.objects.all() if a not in a_list] for a in to_remove(): a.remove() This leaves me with a few questions: What if I don't know the full list of classes and fields (the case since it is a large group)? Is this the most efficient way to do this for a large table with … -

Best place to start to develop a website for someone who knows python
The small healthcare company I work for is looking to update the website that other employees enter data into that then gets sent to our database. The current website was coded by someone that isn't there anymore and no one really knows how to maintain it efficiently. Even though I am a data analyst my team has been tasked with this to do. Since I use python every day I was wondering if there was a good way to make all of this relying on python for most of it, or where would you guys point someone like me to start learning this? Thank you! I have heard of flask and Django but just wanted to see what people's opinions are for doing this kind of project. The website really just needs some basic interactivity like going to different pages and entering stuff into a field (and restricting what they can't enter) that then gets sent to a database. -
Mark specific Django migrations as fake migrations during test DB setup
I have some database migrations, some are structural migrations some are data migrations eg. 0001_initial.py 0002_move_data.py 0003_add_field.py 0004_move_more_data.py I would like to skip those data migrations (0002 and 0004) as I don't want to spend the effort to fake the source for those data migrations but still run 0001 and 0003 when running python manage.py test Is it possible? -
How to get foreign key attribute (or many to many attribute) of a model instance in Django in asynchronous queries?
In asynchronous queries, I want to get foreign key and many to many attributes of a model instance. In my case, I want to get university and courses of the model Student. models.py: from django.db import models class University(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=64) class Course(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=64) class Student(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=64) university = models.ForeignKey(to=University, on_delete=models.CASCADE) courses = models.ManyToManyField(to=Course) when I use this code (in django 4.1): async for student in Student.objects.all(): print(student.university) print(student.courses) I get the following error: django.core.exceptions.SynchronousOnlyOperation: You cannot call this from an async context - use a thread or sync_to_async. How can I fix this error? -
Will Django model instance always be populated when calling save()?
I have a model where I am overriding the save() function to add SearchVector's. I need to preprocess one of the instance's fields so I am overriding the save function: class Student(models.Model): first_name = models.CharField(max_length=255, default="") last_name = models.CharField(max_length=255, default="") search_vector = SearchVectorField(null=True) def save(self, *args, **kwargs): sv = SearchVector(Value(self.first_name)) + SearchVector(Value(self.last_name)) if len(self.last_name) > 3: sv += SearchVector(Value(self.last_name[0:3])) self.search_vector = sv super().save(*args, **kwargs) Can I expect that all fields (first_name & last_name) of the instance are always populated inside the save() function? I noticed that the instance loading function from_db seems to suggest that model instances can be created with a partial set of fields. Does this mean that first_name could be None on the save() call? -
How to make an ajax function to execute only in in a certain case?

Django/Wagtail Media Files not showing up in the admin portal on a fresh install
