PYTHON FACIAL RECOGNITION (OPEN CV + FACE_RECOGNITION)
I need some help with a project I'm working on. I currently have a Python script that performs facial recognition using OpenCV and the face_recognition library. The script works fine in standalone Python, but now I need to transform it into a Django web application. My goal is to create a Django-based system where users can register their faces via the web interface, and later use facial recognition for authentication or access control. I'm struggling with how to properly integrate the image capturing, face encoding, and recognition process into Django views and models. Specifically, I'm not sure how to handle: Capturing images from the user's webcam via the web interface. Processing the images with face_recognition in Django views. Storing and retrieving face encodings in the Django database. Handling real-time recognition or verification from the web app. If anyone has experience with this or knows of any good tutorials, examples, or tips, I would greatly appreciate your help. Thank you in advance! -
setup dj_rest_auth and all allauth not working
Hello i'm trying to setup dj_rest_auth and allauth with custom user model for login for my nextjs app but it seems not working the backend part besides it not working i get this warning /usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/dj_rest_auth/registration/serializers.py:228: UserWarning: app_settings.USERNAME_REQUIRED is deprecated, use: app_settings.SIGNUP_FIELDS['username']['required'] required=allauth_account_settings.USERNAME_REQUIRED, /usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/dj_rest_auth/registration/serializers.py:230: UserWarning: app_settings.EMAIL_REQUIRED is deprecated, use: app_settings.SIGNUP_FIELDS['email']['required'] email = serializers.EmailField(required=allauth_account_settings.EMAIL_REQUIRED) /usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/dj_rest_auth/registration/serializers.py:288: UserWarning: app_settings.EMAIL_REQUIRED is deprecated, use: app_settings.SIGNUP_FIELDS['email']['required'] email = serializers.EmailField(required=allauth_account_settings.EMAIL_REQUIRED) No changes detected # python manage.py migrate /usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/dj_rest_auth/registration/serializers.py:228: UserWarning: app_settings.USERNAME_REQUIRED is deprecated, use: app_settings.SIGNUP_FIELDS['username']['required'] required=allauth_account_settings.USERNAME_REQUIRED, /usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/dj_rest_auth/registration/serializers.py:230: UserWarning: app_settings.EMAIL_REQUIRED is deprecated, use: app_settings.SIGNUP_FIELDS['email']['required'] email = serializers.EmailField(required=allauth_account_settings.EMAIL_REQUIRED) /usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/dj_rest_auth/registration/serializers.py:288: UserWarning: app_settings.EMAIL_REQUIRED is deprecated, use: app_settings.SIGNUP_FIELDS['email']['required'] email = serializers.EmailField(required=allauth_account_settings.EMAIL_REQUIRED) versions i use Django==5.2.1 django-cors-headers==4.3.1 djangorestframework==3.16.0 dj-rest-auth==7.0.1 django-allauth==65.8.1 djangorestframework_simplejwt==5.5.0 psycopg2-binary==2.9.10 python-dotenv==1.0.1 Pillow==11.2.1 gunicorn==23.0.0 whitenoise==6.9.0 redis==5.2.1 requests==2.32.3 models.py import uuid from django.db import models from django.utils import timezone from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser, PermissionsMixin, UserManager # Create your models here. class MyUserManager(UserManager): def _create_user(self, name, email, password=None , **extra_fields): if not email: raise ValueError('Users must have an email address') email = self.normalize_email(email=email) user = self.model(email=email , name=name, **extra_fields) user.set_password(password) user.save(using=self.db) return user def create_user(self, name=None, email=None, password=None, **extra_fields): extra_fields.setdefault('is_staff',False) extra_fields.setdefault('is_superuser',False) return self._create_user(name=name,email=email,password=password,**extra_fields) def create_superuser(self, name=None, email=None, password=None, **extra_fields): extra_fields.setdefault('is_staff',True) extra_fields.setdefault('is_superuser',True) return self._create_user(name=name,email=email,password=password,**extra_fields) class Users(AbstractUser, PermissionsMixin): id = models.UUIDField(primary_key=True, default=uuid.uuid4, editable=False) first_name = None last_name = … -
Django's manage.py dumpdata adds free text to each file
I am trying to move Django data from SQLite to Postgres, following this flow: SQLite connection in settings.py manage.py dumpdata > data.json Postgres connection in settings.py manage.py loaddata data.json It seems to be sort of working (still struggling with "matching query does not exist" errors), but one thing definitely looks like a bug: The data.json file always starts with a free-text line "Tracking file by folder pattern: migrations". Then follows the JSON content. As the result, the command loaddata gives the to be expected error: json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0) It all works fine if open the JSON file in a text editor and delete that first line. It also makes sense that the line is there, since dumpdata without > data.json outputs "Tracking file by folder pattern: migrations" before the data. Is there a way to prevent Django from writing that line to the file? -
Django ModelFormset_Factory issue with rendering form
I've reviewed other questions and answers, worked through the django documentation and followed tutorials but I can't get my model formset to render correctly. So far, I have the following working fine: forms.py class BulkUpdateForm(forms.ModelForm): def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super(BulkUpdateForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.helper = FormHelper(self) self.helper.form_method = "post" self.helper.layout = Layout( Row( Column("slug"), ), Row( Column("registered"), Column("start_date"), Column("end_date"), Column("achieved"), Column("pfr_start"), Column("pfr_end"), ), ) self.fields["slug"].label = "" class Meta: model = LearnerInstance fields = ["id","slug","registered","start_date","end_date","achieved","pfr_start","pfr_end", ] widgets = { "slug": forms.TextInput( attrs={ "readonly": True, }, ), } template <div class="container d-flex align-items-center flex-column pt-1"> <div class="card text-dark bg-light mb-3 p-3" style="max-width: 95rem;"> <br> <form action="" method="post"> {% csrf_token %} {{ formset.management_form }} {% for form in formset %} {% crispy form %} <hr> {% endfor %} </div> <input type="submit" name='registered', class="btn btn-primary" value="Update"> </form> </div> views.py def bulk_update(request): context = {} selected_rows = request.POST.getlist("select") #posted from previous page with a table and checkboxes to select the queryset I need to update BulkFormset = modelformset_factory( LearnerInstance, form=BulkUpdateForm, edit_only=True, extra=0) queryset = LearnerInstance.objects.filter(id__in=selected_rows) formset = BulkFormset(queryset=queryset) context["formset"] = formset return render(request, "learner/bulk_update.html", context) Results in the following output, which is what I hope to see: However - when I add request POST BulkFormset … -

Django and IIS, handlers not functioning as expected
I have been working on developing an internal website for my company, I am using django as the framework. Once I went through the process of moving everything to IIS I lose my css files for the admin page. I have tried swapping the handlers from django fastcgi being first and staticfilehandler being first, if django is first then everything loads and works except for the admin page issue, but if static is first then everything breaks. I have edited the applicationHost.config file to allow overrides and changed the definitions as well. -
How can I connect multiple model tables Django for data import export?
I have three 3 Django model tables. They are kind of connected to each other so that each row, each line from one model table corresponds to the same from another model table. You could say that I'm just splitting one large model table into three 3 medium small ones. And each row, line from one model table is equal to belongs to another. Rows, rows from 3 tables - one row from 3 tables - these are the parameters of one object. How can I somehow connect these three 3 model tables? I'll be glad to any help. I want to save and upload data simultaneously to 3 model tables through the form. How can I somehow load and receive data. How can I connect multiple model tables for data import export? How can I connect multiple model tables for data import export as if it were one large model table - merged from 3 model tables? from django.db import models class Musician_1(models.Model): first_name_1 = models.CharField(max_length=50) last_name_1 = models.CharField(max_length=50) instrument_1 = models.CharField(max_length=100) class Musician_2(models.Model): first_name_2 = models.CharField(max_length=50) last_name_2 = models.CharField(max_length=50) instrument_2 = models.CharField(max_length=100) class Musician_3(models.Model): first_name_3 = models.CharField(max_length=50) last_name_3 = models.CharField(max_length=50) instrument_3 = models.CharField(max_length=100) -

How to send real emails via Gmail SMTP in Cookiecutter Django project?
I'm using Cookiecutter Django for my project, and I’d like to start sending real emails through Gmail SMTP (not just to Mailpit) — for example, welcome emails after user registration. Right now, in local.py, email is configured like this: EMAIL_HOST = env("EMAIL_HOST", default="mailpit") EMAIL_PORT = 1025 This works fine for local testing — emails show up in Mailpit at localhost:8025. But now I want to send real emails to users via Gmail when running in production (or even temporarily in development for testing real delivery). I already have Gmail App Passwords set up and my .envs/.production/.django file contains: EMAIL_HOST_USER=something@gmail.com EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD=my-app-password DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL=something@gmail.com And in production.py, I have: EMAIL_BACKEND = "django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend" EMAIL_HOST = "smtp.gmail.com" EMAIL_PORT = 587 EMAIL_USE_TLS = True EMAIL_HOST_USER = os.getenv("EMAIL_HOST_USER") EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = os.getenv("EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD") DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = os.getenv("DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL") My questions: Is this the correct way to send real emails using Gmail SMTP in Cookiecutter Django? Is there anything else I need to do to make this work in production? Can I test Gmail sending locally without breaking the Cookiecutter setup? Thanks in advance! -
Okta Redirection based on attribute then access SubPage
I have a successfully authenticated and got redirected to my role let's say Admin page, in my Okta it is called http://test.com/myAdmin I have other redirects depending on the users roles; however, that those work as well and their URI are: http://test.com/myOtherRole1 http://test.com/myOtherRole2 I am perplexed because when I go to access let's say from my Django routes from urls.py: url_patterns=[ ..., path("myAdmin/", views.Adminrole, name="Admin_Home"), path("myAdmin/mainpanel", views.mainpanel, name="view"), ] I cannot do so after Okta sign-in and landing on http://test.com/myAdmin. So the next page I should be able to access is: http://test.com/myAdmin/mainpanel I am expecting to access each subdomain in each route in urls.py. Does that mean I have to include them in Okta Redirect URI? Because I keep getting an error 403 when I try to advance to other pages. -
Problems with Django admin model page. Slow performance
I have a problem with a change view of an model in Django. I have profiled the endpoint with different tools, and also took logs of the database queries run using shell plus. I can't see any long calls on the pg db and the cprofiler tool i used shows no long calls in the stack trace , but the response takes longer than 3 mins and i can't find a way to debug it. I also inspected Django source code ModelAdmin and changeform_view it seems to not have slow performance issues there it returns immediately . Any help ? -
DigitalOcean App Platform does not parse ${db.DATABASE_URL} after bulk editor changes
I am using DigitalOcean App Platform to deploy a Django app. The initial deployment worked fine, but I've attempted to use the bulk editor on the component-level environment variables, and since then, the deployment fails when executing dj_database_url.config(default=config('DATABASE_URL'). For debugging, I added this line to settings.py: print(f"[BUILD DEBUG] DATABASE_URL = {repr(os.environ.get('DATABASE_URL'))}") This returns [BUILD DEBUG] DATABASE_URL = '${db.DATABASE_URL}' in the build logs. I don't understand why the environment variable is not resolving. My app spec looks like this: services: - environment_slug: python envs: - key: DATABASE_URL scope: RUN_AND_BUILD_TIME value: ${db.DATABASE_URL} Could this be a bug, or am I doing something wrong? Yes, my database is named correctly: databases: - engine: PG name: db The only thing that changed between my last deployment and this failed deployment, besides a few lines of code, is that I used the bulk editor to add new environment variables. Some of the existing environment variables were encrypted, but they look OK in the app spec. -
Passing Arguments to Django Views From a Rendered Page
I've been tasked to build web-based front end to an existing MySQL database. I'm new to web development in general, decided to use Django because I'm a pretty advanced Python user. However, I'm completely stuck doing what seems like it should be a pretty common task. The database holds information about Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs) and the pieces of software associated with each. Right now, all I want to do is have the user select an SBOM from the database, retrieve the software associated with that SBOM, and display the results. I would like the user to be able to page through the results. I'm trying to do this by rendering a list of SBOMs in the system in HTML, with each entry having an associated button that will pass the selected parameters to the next view in line. As far as I can tell, I have things set up so Here's how my urls.py is set up: urlpatterns = [ path("", views.select_bill, name="select_bill"), path("select_software/<int:bill_num>", views.select_software, name="select_software"), path("select_software/<int:bill_num>/<int:page>", views.select_software, name="select_software") ] my views.py: from django.shortcuts import render from django.core.paginator import Paginator from frontend.models import SoftwareResults RESULTS_PER_PAGE = 25 def select_bill(request): bills = get_bills() # Function that queries the existing … -

Custom id generation on bulk_create in django
I want different models in my django project to have different prefixes (like usr_ for user, acc_ for account etc.) I then want to append a nanoid to this prefix. I defined a basemodel which is used by all the other models and I overrode the basemodel's save method to create the id in the format I want. But the issue is that when I use bulk_create the ids are not in the format I want. What is the easiest way that I can generate my custom ids in bulk_create that can be used by all other models. -
How can I link multiple Django model tables as if they were one when entering data?
Good morning! I am a bit new to Django. I wanted to ask about the relationships between Django model tables. I have several Django model tables. They should all belong to the same correspondence - a row from one table - is respectively related to a row from another table. That a row from one model table is also and, respectively, a row from another model table - they belong to and characterize one object. This is how I split one large table into several. How can I make the tables related and - so that when filling in only one form through the Django model form - other related tables are also automatically filled in. How can I form a single QuerySet or DataFrame from these several respectively related model tables. How can I automatically send data not only to one table but also to others when sending data from the Django model form, which are related to several Django model tables as if they were one when entering data? How can I link multiple Django model tables as if they were one when entering data? class MyModel(models.Model): id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True) # Auto-incrementing integer uuid = models.UUIDField(default=uuid.uuid4) name = … -

I've defined all my models like this: class Bar(models.Model): internal_type = models.TextField(...) ... class Meta: managed = False db_table = 'myschema\".\"bar' class Foo(models.Model): ... bar = models.ForeignKey('Bar', models.DO_NOTHING, db_column='bar', blank=True, null=True) class Meta: managed = False db_table = 'myschema\".\"foo' This looks funky, but it was working perfectly fine on Django 3.2. It allowed me to write tests like this: def test_foo(self): from app import models assert models.Foo.objects.count() == 0 # self.cursor is a psycopg2 cursor # run_planner uses that cursor to create a bunch of Foo and related Bar objects run_planner(self.cursor) self.cursor.connection.commit() my_foos = models.Foo.objects.filter(bar__internal_type='special') assert my_foos.count() == 2 # this passes for m in my_foos: print(m.bar) # this raises DoesNotExist This test passes with no issues on Django 3.2, but fails on that last line on 5.2. How can I work around this? It seems like Django is using some stricter transaction isolation behind the scenes? How can the .count() succeed, but the accessing it fail? Note that my_foos specifically asks for Foo objects with related Bar instances. I've tried committing Django's cursor before, closing its connection and forcing it … -
I'm trying to integrate Google SSO into my Django app, but I keep running into an issue
I'm 99% sure it has to do with my custom authentication model, as shown below: from django.contrib.auth.backends import ModelBackend from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model from django.db.models import Q UserModel = get_user_model() class UsernameOrEmailBackend(ModelBackend): def authenticate(self, request, username=None, password=None, **kwargs): try: user = UserModel.objects.get(Q(username__iexact=username) | Q(email__iexact=username)) except UserModel.DoesNotExist: return None else: if user.check_password(password) and self.user_can_authenticate(user): return user return None The goal was to allow users to sign in with a combination of email/username or password. But now, when i try to integrate Google SSO, it always redirects to the allauth signup page because Google doesn't provide a username. -
How to get a moving average (or max) in time period using Django ORM
I am trying to work out if it's possible/practical to use the Django ORM to get the highest value in an arbitrary timebox out of the database. Imagine a restaurant orders ingredients every day, we might have a simple model that looks like: class Order(models.Model): date = models.DateField() ingredient = models.CharField() quantity = models.IntegerField() Then I am able to get the sum quantities ordered each week: Order.objects.filter(date__gte=start_date, date__lt=end_date) .annotate(date=TruncWeek("date")) .values("ingredient", "date") .annotate(total=Sum("quantity")) .order_by("ingredient") But now I want to figure out the maximum quanity of each ingredient that has been ordered in any consecutive 7 (or X number of) days, across the filtered date range. Is it possible to do this in the ORM? -
modeltranslation ignores LANGUAGE setting
I have a djnago project where I use modeltranslation with 2 languages. I have defined LANGUAGES = .. in setting and added to installed_apps all apps from project and modeltranslation. The problem is that get_translation_fields() funtion from modeltranslation returns correct 2 languages for apps/general but returns all languages for apps/common and both apps are defiened the same. I have a resource that use this get_translation_fields() and it works well in apps/general but not in apps/common.
