Can't read "csrftoken" from cookies (Django)
I am working on a Django backend. The backend is deployed on Render, and I am testing email validation logic by sending OTP but for that i need to send "csrftoken" for the POST request. At first the cookie was not getting set in cookies in firefox (but was getting set it chrome), since it was asking for the cookie to have partitioned attribute set, since django does not yet support it, i had to include a custom middleware to do it. Now currently for some reason i am not able to read the csrftoken. views.py: @ensure_csrf_cookie def register(request): if request.method == "POST": ...... elif request.method == "GET": return JsonResponse({"message": "GET request handled"}, status=200) prod.py: from .common import * CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS = [ "http://127.0.0.1:8001", "http://localhost:8001", "https://forkmemaybe.github.io/temp/", ] CSRF_COOKIE_SAMESITE = "None" CSRF_COOKIE_SECURE = True CORS_ALLOW_CREDENTIALS = True CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS = [ "http://127.0.0.1:8001", "http://localhost:8001", "https://forkmemaybe.github.io/temp/", ] SESSION_COOKIE_SAMESITE = "None" SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE = True HTML page i am making requests from URL: [http://127.0.0.1:8001/live.html] ...... <script> function getCookie(name) { let cookieValue = null; console.log(document.cookie); if (document.cookie && document.cookie !== '') { const cookies = document.cookie.split(';'); for (let i = 0; i < cookies.length; i++) { const cookie = cookies[i].trim(); // Does this cookie string begin with the … -

Why is request.user not being populated in Django when using custom JWT middleware?
I'm implementing custom JWT authentication in Django and I'm using middleware to decode the JWT token and assign request.user to the authenticated user. However, when I try to access request.user inside my view or decorator, it's not being populated, even though the middleware is correctly decoding the token and assigning it. class JWTAuthenticationMiddleware: def __init__(self, get_response): self.get_response = get_response def __call__(self, request): # Check for the presence of the JWT in the Authorization header # Debugging the Authorization header print(f"Authorization Header: {request.headers.get('Authorization')}") auth_header = request.headers.get("Authorization") if auth_header and auth_header.startswith("Bearer "): token = auth_header.split(" ")[1] try: user = decode_jwt_token(token) print(f"JWT Decoded Payload: {user}") # Print decoded token request.user = user # Assign the user here request._force_auth_user = user print(f"JWT Middleware: User assigned: {request.user.email} - {request.user.role}") except jwt.ExpiredSignatureError: print("JWT Middleware: Token expired") except jwt.DecodeError: print("JWT Middleware: Invalid token") response = self.get_response(request) print( f"JWT Middleware (After Response): {request.user if hasattr(request, 'user') else 'No User'}" ) # Debug after response return response class InviteUserView(APIView): """Invite a user via email with role assignment""" @bypass_csrf @authorize @role_required([UserRoleEnum.SUPER_ADMIN.value]) def post(self, request): print(f"DEBUG: User in request inside view - {getattr(request, 'user', 'No User')}") serializer = UserInvitationSerializer(data=request.data) try: if serializer.is_valid(): invitation_link = send_invitation(request, serializer, request.user) response = create_response(201, ResponseCodes.SUCCESS, … -

how to refer back to the model from utils.py in a Django object
I'm trying to create a field in a django model, that forces a unique value in the model. I'm using utils.py to generate the value. The error I get is: File "/Users/evancutler/PycharmProjects/DjangoProject1/MCARS/utils.py", line 2, in <module> from MCARS.models import Profile ImportError: cannot import name 'Profile' from partially initialized module 'MCARS.models' (most likely due to a circular import) (/Users/evancutler/PycharmProjects/DjangoProject1/MCARS/models.py) Here's my model: class Profile(models.Model): # Managed fields user = models.OneToOneField(User, related_name="profile", on_delete=models.CASCADE) memberid = models.CharField( max_length = 10, blank=True, editable=True, unique=True, default=utils.create_new_ref_number() ) avatar = models.ImageField(upload_to="static/mcars/img/avatars", null=True, blank=True) birthday = models.DateField(null=True, blank=True) gender = models.CharField(max_length=10, choices=constants.GENDER_CHOICES, null=True, blank=True) invited = models.BooleanField(default=False) registered = models.BooleanField(default=False) height = models.PositiveSmallIntegerField(null=True, blank=True) phone = models.CharField(max_length=32, null=True, blank=True) address = models.CharField(max_length=255, null=True, blank=True) number = models.CharField(max_length=32, null=True, blank=True) city = models.CharField(max_length=50, null=True, blank=True) zip = models.CharField(max_length=30, null=True, blank=True) here's my utils: import random from MCARS.models import Profile def create_new_ref_number(): not_unique = True while not_unique: unique_ref = random.randint(1000000000, 9999999999) if not Profile.objects.filter(memberid=unique_ref): not_unique = False return str(unique_ref) how do I tell the utils.py to refer back to the model to check if the value is unique and if not, to try again?

Django Scraper Matching Issue: match_maker Only Returns 4 Members Instead of 150
Question: I'm working on a Django project that uses Scrapy to scrape member profiles from a website. The scraped data is processed by a method called match_maker. However, I'm encountering an issue where match_maker only returns 4 members, despite having 150 members in the database (excluding 3 staff members). Details: Database: Contains 153 members; 3 are staff members, leaving 150 regular members. Profile Types: Each member has a profile_type of either 'Man', 'Woman', 'Trans', or 'Couple'. Issue: In the match_maker method, there's a loop that processes rooms and assigns them to members. A set named used_rooms is used to track assigned rooms to ensure each room is only assigned once. The relevant code snippet is: if room["username"] in used_rooms: continue When this condition is active, only 4 members are returned. If I comment out this check, the method processes all 150 members, but the number of available rooms exceeds one million, which is incorrect. Objective: I need each room to be assigned to only one member, ensuring no more than one member owns a particular room. I'm looking for guidance on how to resolve this issue so that match_maker correctly processes all 150 members without assigning multiple members to the … -
Django Streaming Video / Audio - RangedFileResponse
Folks, For ages I've been using RangedFileResponse to enable streaming (particularly with Safari), but to allow ranged streaming with Django. (Please note, it's been forked quite heavily, the one I've been using is from https://github.com/devmonkey22/django-ranged-fileresponse. Now, I've been always wondering if there was a more up-to-date way to do this, since there hasn't seemed to be a better answer? I just recently started to use django-extensions more fully, and bumped into the Werkzeug extensions when I enabled SSL for the Dev environment. But I also found that Werkzeug can help with the Ranged file response. This is what I came up with, and it seems to be faster than using the django-ranged-fileresponse. Sometimes significantly faster. from werkzeug.http import parse_range_header from django.http import FileResponse, HttpResponseNotAllowed, HttpResponseBadRequest def stream_video(request, fqpn, content_type="video/mp4"): file_size = os.path.getsize(fqpn) if request.method != 'GET': return HttpResponseNotAllowed(['GET']) if request.is_secure(): range_header = request.META.get('HTTPS_RANGE') else: range_header = request.META.get('HTTP_RANGE') ranges = parse_range_header(range_header) if not ranges: return FileResponse(open(fqpn, 'rb')) # For simplicity, handle only single range requests start, end = ranges[0] with open(fqpn, 'rb') as file_to_send: file_to_send.seek(start) data = file_to_send.read(end - start + 1) response = FileResponse(data, content_type='application/octet-stream') response['Content-Length'] = len(data) response['Content-Range'] = f'bytes {start}-{end}/{file_size}' response['Accept-Ranges'] = 'bytes' response.status_code = 206 # Partial … -
Why transition-duration along with transform scale could not be set via js/css? (But could be set via DevTools)
The problem is setting transition-duration along with transform scaling results in transformation with zero duration (although style shows up in DevTools as expected) if being set through css, js or html style. But results correctly if being set manually through browser DevTools (changing aforesaid style in DevTools). The MRE is just: <div style="transform: scale(~times~); transition-duration: ~time~"> sandy </div> Working through Django latest version. In the meantime, opacity trasition-duration works as expected, so the trouble is about scaling. Checked the issue in firefox, edge and chrome Though the MRE works as expected in fiddle -

How to store images
I store various image files in my media file in the Django framework and I use MongoDB to store my data, but as far as I understand, storing photos directly in MongoDB is not a preferred method. What path should I follow at this point to get a more efficient result? I thought about using tools like AWS S3, but I'm not sure if this is the right way, and I'm inexperienced in data management. I would appreciate it if you could briefly explain how to do it. -
How to Dockerize a Django and Vite app in a Single docker-compose Setup?
I have a Django project that connected with a Vite app, and I’m trying to set up Docker Compose to run both together. However, I’m facing issues while building and running the containers. I'm using vite for installing the tailwind and everything is working fine without docker, I already configure the django project in docker, but need to configure the frontend vite app which is called webapp, it's in the same directory as django. Goal: Django backend → runs on 8000 Vite frontend → runs on 3000 and connects to Django Both services should run using docker-compose up --build However, when I try to run docker-compose up --build, I get several erros, or even the docker will build without the vite working.

I'm trying to deploy a python app to azure but it doesn't work even with a quickstart sample app
Here's an article from Microsoft with a quickstart guide for python app at azure. So I'm trying to deploy a python app on azure using free tier but it simply doesn't work. I've tried multiple things already. I've cloned sample project code from here as the article suggests. Then I've tried to run it locally using python 3.12. That version is the latest supported for an azure web app at the moment. It works locally on my pc even though /admin/ doesn't work there, but whatever: at least some page opens successfully. I've ran it via pycharm community with a virtual environment. Then I've tried to upload these folders and files to the site/wwwroot folder: folder: .venv hello_azure quickstartproject static .env.sample db.sqlite3 manage.py requirements.txt Before doing that I've created a web app on free tier, chose python 3.12 and opened public access to the website. In the overview of the app it's running. I've also tried to add as a startup command these: manage.py runserver, site/wwwroot/manage.py runserver, python manage.py runserver, python site/wwwroot/manage.py runserver, but non of that worked. On attempt to open the website it shows this error: :( Application Error If you are the application administrator, you can access … -
Django CSRF Token Suddenly Stopped Working
I've been programming a Django application for over a year now. I got the CSRF token working fine in the beginning and there haven't been any problems since. But now, it's suddenly stopped working, both locally and in my development environment despite pushing no changes to it. Does anyone know why this might be, and how I could fix it? Here is a list of everything I've tried: Going through the list of 5 recommendations given in the error report: Browser is accepting cookies: YES Passing a request to the render method: YES Using {% csrf_token %} inside form tag: YES Using CsrfMiddleWare: YES Form has valid csrf token: YES, because I'd reset the cookies manually Removing mismatched data the following ways: Clearing cached data, cookies, and browsing history Restarting my computer Updating Chrome Using Incognito Mode Clearing user session data before every form submission Using decorators '@ensure_csrf_cookie' and '@csrf_protect' either individually or in combination before my view functions. Used this syntax: from django.views.decorators.csrf import ensure_csrf_cookie from django.views.decorators.csrf import csrf_protect ... @ensure_csrf_cookie @csrf_protect def templateFunc(request): In settings.py, making sure to assign the correct localhost to csrf variables, with and without the port numbers: ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['127.0.0.1', 'localhost', ".awsapprunner.com", "dev.org"] CSRF_COOKIE_DOMAIN … -
Key Error when trying to remove slug from my models
I am getting this error when I run migrations: *old_field = model_state.fields.pop(name) KeyError: 'slug'* I have no reference to a slug apart from in my migrations where I had added it then tried to removed it. I am reluctant to delete any migrations but I cannot see another way of moving past this error. I have found this code, in this file env\Lib\site-packages\django\db\migrations\state.py: def remove_field(self, app_label, model_name, name): model_key = app_label, model_name model_state = self.models[model_key] old_field = model_state.fields.pop(name) if self._relations is not None: self.resolve_model_field_relations(model_key, name, old_field) # Delay rendering of relationships if it's not a relational field. delay = not old_field.is_relation self.reload_model(*model_key, delay=delay) Which is where the error is pointing but I don't think this should be touched. I have tried to run a fake migration for the removal of the slug migration and although that goes through; the next time I ran a migration I got the same error again. I am using a postgres DB. -
what dose clean functions do in model django? NOT IN FORMS
I was reading THIS-SOLUTION and I wonder what dose "clean function" do ? is clean where we should put our checkings ? then I found this picture : enter image description here so we have bunch of clean functions , I just want to know what they do . and is it correct to use "clean" if we want to add a filter which makes sure we wont have more than x object from one model(table)? I think using " def save() " seems more suitable to solve this kind of checking but Im not sure. -
HTMX Form in Django: Errors not updating in the DOM after failed validation
I am using HTMX with Django to submit a contact form without refreshing the page. When the form has errors, my backend correctly returns the contact_messages.html template, but the errors do not appear in the page after the request. I can see the correct response in the Network tab, and contact_messages.html contains the expected validation messages. However, HTMX does not update the div#contact-messages in my contact.html file. Before trying to use HTMX, Django's built-in form validations work perfectly. However, as everyone knows, the process is synchronous, and I want to make it asynchronous with HTMX. This's mi view: class ContactView(FormView): template_name = 'contact/contact.html' form_class = ContactForm success_url = reverse_lazy('contact') def form_valid(self, form): messages.success(self.request, "Your message has been sent. We will be in touch with you as soon as possible.") return redirect(self.success_url + '#contact-section') def form_invalid(self, form): messages.error( self.request, "There were some errors in your submission. Please review the highlighted fields and try again", extra_tags="danger") if self.request.headers.get("HX-Request"): return render(self.request, "contact/contact_messages.html", {"form": form}, content_type="text/html", status=400) return super().form_invalid(form) This's my form in contact.html: <form id="contact-form" method="post" hx-post="{% url 'contact' %}" hx-target="#contact-messages" hx-swap="innerHTML" novalidate> {% csrf_token %} <div id='contact-messages'> {% include 'contact/contact_messages.html' %} </div> <div class="form-group mb-0"> <button class=" btn btn-primary w-100"> <span>Send Message</span> … -
What is best practice in working with Freelancers on Django project? [closed]
I have a website written using Django, Bootstrap5, jQuery. As the project gets increasingly time consuming, I want to let freelance developers contribute. What is best practice in this regard. Is there a practicle method to let developers access the relevant parts of the code, without having to share all of it? I understand, that there is the possibility of extracting modules (i.e. django app) into reusable apps. However, that makes setting it up time consuming, especially if dependencies to other django apps exist. What are suggestions? Are there ressources (tutorial, blogs, books, ...) which would help? -
How to trigger multiple views in Django with one button using HTMX?
I’m working on a Django project where I need to call two different views when clicking a single button using HTMX. Scenario: First, I need to send a POST request to edit a task (edit_positions_tasks view). After the first request completes, I need to send a GET request to create a task (create_position_tasks view). The second request should only execute after the first request is successfully processed. Current Code: <button hx-post="{% url 'hrm_tenant:edit_positions_tasks' task.id %}" hx-target="#task_{{ task.uuid }}" hx-swap="outerHTML" hx-on::after-request="htmx.ajax('GET', '{% url 'hrm_tenant:create_position_tasks' empty_position.id %}', {target: '#task_table', swap: 'beforeend'})" > Update </button> Problem: The first POST request works correctly and updates the task. However, the GET request to create_position_tasks doesn’t seem to fire or execute properly after the first request finishes. What I Need Help With: Is my approach correct for chaining two requests in HTMX? If not, what is the recommended way to ensure the second request only fires after the first one completes successfully? Are there better ways to handle this in HTMX or JavaScript? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
