Django testing: find link in email message
I'm trying to test email activation and password reset. How do I filter the email body down to a usable link? def test_activation(self): self.register_user() mail.outbox[0].body.find_the_link() # Find the link here response = self.client.get(link) self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 200) -
Sending data to a form using data from previous GET request
I have a dictionary app where users can view the words (Lemma) filtered by their first letter. I would like for users to be able to then filter those results according to combinations of part of speech (each Lemma has exactly one part of speech) or tags (each Lemma can have 0 to many tags); e.g., select only Lemma that are nouns or verbs or are tagged as agricultural vocabulary. I currently have two forms, one for selecting the first letter and one for selecting the part of speech/tag (the facets). class LemmaInitialLetterForm(forms.Form): LETTERS = [ ... ] initial = forms.ChoiceField( widget=forms.RadioSelect( attrs={"class": "lem_init"} ), choices=LETTERS ) class FacetSideBarForm(forms.Form): poss = forms.MultipleChoiceField( required=False, widget=forms.CheckboxSelectMultiple, label='Parts of speech', choices=list() ) tags = forms.MultipleChoiceField( required=False, widget=forms.CheckboxSelectMultiple, label='Tags', choices=list() ) def __init__(self, poss=None, tag_list=None, *args, **kwargs): super(FacetSideBarForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) if poss: self.fields['poss'].choices = [ (pos, pos) for pos in poss ] if tag_list: self.fields['tags'].choices = [ (tag, tag) for tag in tag_list ] I've been able to display a list of Lemma filtered by first letter with the following view: class LemmaListView(generic.FormView): template_name = "emedict/lemma_home.html" lemmalist = None def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs): form = LemmaInitialLetterForm(self.request.GET or None) if form.is_valid(): initial = request.GET["initial"] … -
Django Simple JWT + Axios, always getting 401. How can I fix this?
I’m using Nuxt and a pinia store to store the token (the token is present in the store). I've created a plugin for Axios as follows: import axios from "axios"; export default defineNuxtPlugin((NuxtApp) => { axios.defaults.baseURL = "http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/"; axios.defaults.withCredentials = false; axios.defaults.proxyHeaders = false; if (process.client) { let token = window.localStorage.getItem("authTokens"); if (token) { token = JSON.parse(token); console.log(token.access); axios.defaults.headers.common["Authorization"] = `Bearer ${token.access}`; } } return { provide: { axios: axios, }, }; }); The endpoint in Django REST Framework is defined like this: class CreateEvent(CreateAPIView): permission_classes = [IsAuthenticated] serializer_class = CreateEventSerializer def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs): data = request.data.copy() z = request.META.get('HTTP_AUTHORIZATION') data['creator'] = request.user print(request.user, '--------------------') data['types'] = get_type_by_int(request.data.get('type', None)) serializer = self.get_serializer(data=data) if serializer.is_valid(): serializer.save() return Response(serializer.data, status=status.HTTP_201_CREATED) return Response(serializer.errors, status=status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST) The method I use to call this endpoint is as follows: async sendEvent(): Promise<void> { try { const { $axios } = useNuxtApp(); const response = await $axios.post("event/create/", { latitiude: this.latitiude, longitude: this.longitude, description: this.description, type: this.type, }); console.log("Event sent:", response.data); } catch (error) { console.error("Error while sending event"); } } No matter what I do, I keep receiving a 401 error with the message: Authentication credentials were not provided. However, the z = request.META.get('HTTP_AUTHORIZATION') line contains … -

Django: No tables found in the database after running migrations
I'm working on a Django project, but I'm facing an issue where no tables are being created in my database even after running migrations. Django version:5.1.3 Database:MySQL OS:ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS 1 I ran python manage.py makemigrations, and it successfully generated migration files 2 I ran python manage.py migrate, and it executed without any errors. 3 However, when I check the database in phpmyadmin, No tables found in database. I also tried these troubleshooting steps: 1 Verified that the database file exists. 2 Ensured that the INSTALLED_APPS list includes my app. 3 Checked that the models are defined properly in the models.py file. 4 Looked for migration history with python manage.py showmigrations, and all migrations are marked as applied. What could be causing this issue? Are there any additional steps I can take to debug or resolve this problem? I’d appreciate any guidance or suggestions. Let me know if more information is needed. -

getting started with grpc django throws import error
Sure! Here’s your question formatted according to Stack Overflow standards: Title: gRPC Python Import Error for Generated hello_pb2.py and hello_pb2_grpc.py Files Question: I have a hello.proto file on the server side. On the client side, I ran the following protoc command to generate the necessary Python files: python3 -m grpc_tools.protoc -I. -Iproto-lib/src/main/proto -Iproto-lib/src/main/proto/common --python_out=./publons/scholarly_person_master_service --grpc_python_out=./app proto-lib/src/main/proto/hello.proto This command created two files on the client side: hello_pb2.py hello_pb2_grpc.py I then created a Python script on the client side to use these files and set up a gRPC server.

Django 5.1 UserCreationForm won't allow empty passwords
I am upgrading a Django 3.0 app to 5.1 and have been moving slowly through each minor release. So far so good. However, once I upgraded from Django 5.0 to 5.1, I saw changed behavior on my "Create New User" page, which used to allow empty passwords, with a random password being generated if none is supplied. Now, I can no longer submit an empty password. I get a "required field" error on both the password fields, even though the fields are both explicitly set as required=False. I know there were some changes (5.1.0, 5.1.1) to the UserCreationForm class in Django 5.1. I tried using AdminUserCreationForm instead of UserCreationForm and setting the usable_password field to None, but it still won't allow empty passwords like before. Any ideas? Environment Python 3.12.8 Django 5.1.5 Simplified Code class SignupForm(AdminUserCreationForm): # previously using UserCreationForm usable_password = None # Newly added # Form fields sharedaccountflag = forms.ChoiceField( label='Cuenta compartida', required=True, choices=BOOLEAN_CHOICES ) # Constructor def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): # Call base class constructor (i.e. SignupForm) super(SignupForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) # Set password fields as optional self.fields['password1'].required=False self.fields['password2'].required=False # Set form helper properties self.helper = FormHelper() setFormHelper(self.helper) # set form method (POST / GET) and styling self.helper.form_tag … -
Using sessions in post requests django
I am currently trying to code my first website. I have a post request taking in answers from a form. I then try to save this information into the session and this doesn’t seem possible. Even when just editing the session data inside the request it doesn’t seem possible and I also can’t print to debug, this could be a stupid question as I am very inexperienced but I cannot find any solution or a reason why? -
Saving "last seen" time doesn't work beyond a few seconds

Am I missing something obvious? -
Setting up Django in a subdirectory
I am trying to set up Django in a subdirectory (running under Apache2 through wsgi), but Django stops recognizing the static URLs. This is an example url, that gives me a 404: https:/<domain>/<subdirectory>/<appname>/en/static//img/favicon.png This should map to the filesystem here: /<projectpath>/<appname>/static/<appname>/img/favicon.png The development server (without a subdirectory) finds the file in the filesystem here: /<appname>/static/<appname>/img/favicon.png How do I setup django to recognize it's not running at / but at /<subdomain>/? -

How can I configure a Django Unfold "custom site" with a required URL parameter?
I'm attempting to create a "custom site" using Django Unfold. I have an existing admin panel configured using the more basic ModelAdmin approach which works nicely. However, I need to create a separate admin panel using the "custom site" feature for use with django-tenants. I want the URL structure to look like: http://localhost:8000/tenant-admin/$tenant-id/. Within the "custom site", Django Tenants will scope the Postgres search path to the correct Postgres schema and the admin will be able to manage all of the models for a given tenant. I have defined my custom site as follows: from django.contrib import admin from django.urls import path from unfold.sites import UnfoldAdminSite from unfold.admin import ModelAdmin from tenant_app.models import Foo class TenantAdminSite(UnfoldAdminSite): # hopefully not needed -- but this is the first instance of admin:index causing problems # index_template = "admin/dashboard.html" def get_app_list(self, *args, **kwargs): # this lives at apps/tenant_app and is the only app that this TenantAdminSite # will use.

Django Daphne not working with WSS, Ngnix and Docker
I'm trying to deploy an application built with Django and Daphne to open a WebSocket connection. Everything works perfectly on localhost, as I'm not using Nginx.

When I try to use HTTPS on port 443, the WebSocket connection remains pending indefinitely until it eventually fails.

500 server error with Django Rest Framework
I am using Django/DRF with Djoser and djangorestframework-simplejwt to create an API for full authentication including signup, login, activation, forgot password and reset password. I followed along with this YT tutorial For some reason, when I send a POST request in Postman to localhost:8000/api/users/ I am getting this error and I have no idea why at this point, django.db.utils.DatabaseError: Save with update_fields did not affect any rows. I'm not using SQLite but an actual Postgres db on localhost. I've tried changing user.save(self._db) to just user.save(), same error. I've updated Django to 5x. Django is the only one with a significant update compared to the tutorial, he uses Django 4x. I did move some of the original model code to a managers.py file based on this testdriven.io tutorial I've been able to run python manage.py runserver with no errors after doing so. It doesn't seem to be any code related to the tutorial but something with the python packages... Here is the error from the cli: [24/Jan/2025 16:40:07] "POST /api/users/ HTTP/1.1" 500 138392 Bad Request: /api/users/ [24/Jan/2025 17:05:47] "POST /api/users/ HTTP/1.1" 400 62 Internal Server Error: /api/users/ Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/da/projects/full_auth_api/full_auth/backend/venv/lib/python3.12/site-packages/django/core/handlers/exception.py", line 55, in inner response = get_response(request) … -
Puppeteer not working with Django Viewset
I am trying to write a Django REST endpoint which will convert the HTML content to PDF and then return the Streaming file response to download the report. For this purpose, I am using Puppeteer, which works fine out of Django scope (e.g. for testing purpose). The download view minimal example is following import asyncio from pyppeteer import launch from django.http import HttpResponse from rest_framework.viewsets import ViewSet from rest_framework.permissions import IsAuthenticated from rest_framework_simplejwt.authentication import JWTAuthentication class DownloadReport (ViewSet): permission_classes = [IsAuthenticated] authentication_classes = [JWTAuthentication] async def html_to_pdf(self, html): browser = await launch( headless=True, args=['--no-sandbox', '--disable-setuid-sandbox'] ) page = await browser.newPage() await page.setContent(html) await page.setViewport({ 'width': 1920, 'height': 1080, 'deviceScaleFactor': 1 }) pdf = await page.pdf({ 'format': 'A3', 'printBackground': True, 'landscape': True, 'scale': 1 }) await browser.close() return pdf def retrieve(self, request): content = "<h1>Hurrah PDF conversion successfull<h1>" content = asyncio.run(self.html_to_pdf(content)) response = HttpResponse(content, content_type='application/pdf') response['Content-Disposition'] = f'attachment; filename="report.pdf"' return response The problem is in Djanog the browser is neven launched it thrwos following exeption Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Zain ul abdin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\core\handlers\exception.py", line 55, in inner response = get_response(request) File "C:\Users\Zain ul abdin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\core\handlers\base.py", line 197, in _get_response response = wrapped_callback(request, *callback_args, **callback_kwargs) File "C:\Users\Zain ul abdin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\views\decorators\csrf.py", line 65, in … -
FormData file upload to Django model?
I'm trying to upload a file through a jQuery ajax request, using FormData. When I set processData and contentType to false, I get the error Forbidden (CSRF token missing.). When I remove those, I get the error Uncaught TypeError: 'slice' called on an object that does not implement interface Blob.. What am I missing here? $(".form").on("submit", function(event) { event.preventDefault(); $.ajax({ url: "/upload_profile_pic/", type: "POST", data: { "profile_pic": formData.get("file"), "csrfmiddlewaretoken": $(this).find("input[name='csrfmiddlewaretoken']").val() }, }, success: function (data) { console.log("success: "+data); }, error: function (data) { console.log(data); } }); }); -
Django vs PHP 8.*: Memory usage with 1000 concurrent visitors
I'm currently deciding between Django (Python) and PHP 8.* for a very large project that expects high traffic. Memory usage is a crucial factor for me since the website will need to handle a significant number of concurrent visitors. For example, let's say the site needs to handle 1000 concurrent visitors. Please consider that the project will be well optimized. From what I understand: PHP creates a new process for each request, which might lead to higher memory consumption under heavy load since each request is handled separately. Django, on the other hand, uses a persistent process to handle requests, which might help with better memory management but could also cause its own memory-related concerns under high traffic. I've asked ChatGPT for advice on this, but it gives random and wrong answers, so I don't trust it. I'm looking for insights or benchmarks that compare the memory usage of PHP and Django when handling high traffic and concurrent users. Specifically, how much memory each might use when handling around 1000 concurrent visitors, and any research on how each stacks up in terms of scalability and memory efficiency. Which language/framework would you recommend if memory usage is a key factor for … -
