How to send a POST request to the server from Fetch API? Examples don't work
I can't send a post request to the server. For some reason, the reguest.POST on the server is empty. Below are code examples JS on front let weekends = [] await fetch('{% url "get_weekends" %}', { method: 'POST', headers: new Headers({'Accept': 'application/json', 'Content-Type': 'application/json'}), params: {after: after_str, before: before_str} }).then(function (response) { return response.json(); }).then(function (data) { if (data['status'] === 'ok') { weekends = data['weekends'] } else { console.error(data) show_error('Не удалось получить список ваших выходных! Ошибка в статусе!') } }).catch(function (e) { console.error(e) show_error('Не удалось получить список ваших выходных! Не удалось выполнить запрос!') }); after_str and before_str saved str data (01.12.2021 and 31.12.2021) Python on backend def get_weekends_view(request): """ Вью возвращает список выходных пользователя в заданном промежутке времени """ form = GetAfterAndBeforeForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): after, before = form.cleaned_data['after'], form.cleaned_data['before'] result = [] for weekend in Weekend.objects.filter(user=request.user, date__range=(after, before)): result.append({'date': weekend.date.strftime('%d.%m.%Y'), 'status': weekend.get_status_display()}) return {'status': 'ok', 'weekends': result} else: return {'status': 'error', 'msg': 'Форма заполнена не верно!

Retrieving data from Django HTML form and passing it to a MySQL database
I have a database with multiple user names and phone numbers attached to each user. On the Django template that I created the user is presented with a list of names, and the user can click on a name, or multiple names, and the database is to respond with the phone number assigned to the name. However, I am using a for loop within the Django template to iterate over the names in the database to display for the user, as the count can change. It works correctly when I select one name, however, if I select multiple name, it takes the last name selected versus displaying all names. This error is due to my for loop solution which has the same "name" assigned to all inputs. Anyone have an idea on how I can approach this? My View form: def select_contact(request): alldata = identity_log.objects.values_list("first_name", flat=True) #https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/ref/models/querysets/ checkform = contact_form(request.POST or None) context = {'alldata': alldata} print(checkform) display_type = request.POST.get("contact_option", None) if display_type in alldata: print(display_type) return render(request, 'message_me/select_contact.html', context) My template: {% extends "base.html" %} {% load static %} {% block body %} <p>Please select your favorite Web language:</p> {% for x in alldata %} <form id="contact_option" role="form" action="" … -
Django retrieving env var fails on ElasticBeanstalk
I deployed my Django app using ElasticBeanstalk. When I access the top page I get 502 error. My log shows raise KeyError(key) from None KeyError: 'MY_APP_SECRET' in my settings.py. I double checked that value for MY_APP_SECRET is set on ElasticBeanstalk console. It seems Django at least sees DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE env var. How can I make it work? -

Testing firebase push notification
I have done some setup looking at the documentation of django-fcm and wrote the following scripts. Now, I havent done the frontend part, but want to test it locally.

Cannot resolve keyword 'book_hex' into field
I'm using Django. Instead of using a PrimaryKey to identify separate books, I thought of using a code to distinguish two books. I've implemented a random 10-digit code generator and I've plugged it in to the urlpatterns and functions. That all works. But now I can't access the code of a book in a ForeignKey as I could access id with the underscore in front: r = UserRents.objects.get(book_code=code) Django gives the following error: FieldError at /main/accept_rent_request/tQYMlQMIFM/ Cannot resolve keyword 'book_code' into field. Choices are: book, book_id, creation_date, id, status, user, user_id Here's the UserRents model: class UserRents(models.Model): book = models.ForeignKey(Book, on_delete=models.CASCADE, blank=True, null=True) user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, blank=True, null=True) status = IntegerField(default=0) creation_date = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now) updation_date = 0 # Change to models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now) when updated def __str__(self): return self.book.title How can I access the code property of the book to which the UserRents table is ForeignKeying to? -

500 error on one specific page. Apache2. Ubuntu 18
As a developer, I have to let you know that I'm a great fan of Stackoverflow. I have solved so many problems thanks to all of you! Currently, I'm struggling with a 500 error. I have been looking for a solution through this page and the web, but I haven't found anything. I recently created a web app using tesseract to extract text from images.

Assigning value to variable inside for loop
I have a for loop that goes through a list of cities as well as their broad variables (safety, affordability, transit, etc).

No messages being sent by celery beat (using django-celery-beat)
I am in the process of upgrading to celery 5.x for a Django project. Since there is no longer a @scheduled_task annotation, I changed all of those to @shared_task and wrote some code to create CrontabSchedule instances and associate PeriodicTask instances with those for each task that should run on a schedule. I am invoking that from a beat_init signal receiver. I'm running celery worker & beat as separate processes. I am logging info from the function that sets up the CrontabSchedule and PeriodicTask instances, and I see that log output from the celery beat process. Immediately after that, I see a DatabaseScheduler: Schedule changed." message. That's all as expected and good. Subsequently, however, celery beat just sits and does nothing. beat never sends any messages, and as a result, celery worker never executes any scheduled tasks. In django-admin shell_plus, PeriodicTask.objects.all() shows me many scheduled tasks with schedules that all look as they should. Here's 1 example from the output that should be running once per minute, every day: <PeriodicTask: dhnetwork.tasks.send_queued_mail: {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59} {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23} * {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12} {0,1,2,3,4,5,6} (m/h/dM/MY/d) America/Los_Angeles> Any ideas what I might be doing wrong and/or how to diagnose the problem? -
