Localhost route can't load static file
I am currently creating a dockerized web application. It is composed of the following elements : React for the frontend (with the routes managed by react-router-dom) Django for the backend PostgreSQL for the database managment Nginx for the reverse proxy I have created the reverse proxy for the back-end and front-end. I have created a route named /element/:id (id is an URL parameter) which would allowed me to see the informations of an object stored in a database. Unfortunately, when I try to load the page localhost/element/1, the page displayed nothing.

Django request.GET adds and extra quote to the data

handle situation where Django UpdateView does not have any data to update
I have created a forms wizard where a user will be able to create and update data for the models after which I will calculate the result by gathering all the data from all the forms and present them with an output. My user has the freedom to pick up where they left off and continue filling in data when they revisit. Each CreateView is linked to the next CreateView using the success_urls. So each UpdateView goes to the next UpdateView in the series of Views using the success_urls. So when a user updates data for a form and click next, they might arrive at a form which does not have any data to update because they have not filled in that data in thier previous visit. So get_object() returns an error as there is no data in the database for that form of that project. How to handle this situation ? class UserUseUpdateView(UpdateView): model = UserUse form_class = UserUseForm template_name = 'user_use.html' success_url = reverse_lazy('controller', kwargs={'step': 10, 'action': 'update'}) def get_object(self, queryset=None): try: project_instance = get_project(self.request) return UserUse.objects.get(project=project_instance) except Project.DoesNotExist: return redirect('step-9-create') # raise Http404(f'Project not found.') except UserUse.DoesNotExist: raise Http404(f'UserUse for project not found.') def form_valid(self, form): try: … -

deploying django in vercel function timeout

How "unpythonic" is it for an exception to be the expected outcome?
In Django I am validating a request which submits something that a user is only supposed to submit once, and in the "correct behavour sequence" an Exception is raised: try: my_row = models.MyModel.objects.get(id=instance_id, user=request.logged_in_user) return HttpResponseBadRequest("Already submitted") except models.MyModel.DoesNotExist: pass // continue Scale of 1-10, how much of a crime is this? -
Unclear error in Django rest framework swagger - guid instead of uuid
I have a Django rest framework project that is documented using drf-spectacular. In one of the endpoints I use rest_framework.serializer.UUIDField inside a serializer which inherit from rest_framework.serializer.serializer. But once I assign a wrong value in the swagger page the error is "Value must be a Guid". Why Guid and not UUID? Can I change it somehow? I don't understand from where it is coming from, did someone can assist with it? Search the "drf-spectacular" repo and didn't find it. -
Django Testing: Use main database as only one database available?
I am a university student, and I decided to use Django for my final year project. This means I am limited to using the University's MySQL database server. On the server, I am only allowed to have one database under my name and do not have permission to create any more of my own. I cannot use Django's test database functionality, as I only have one available and cannot create another. So, when I run ./manage.py test, I get the error... Found 3 test(s). Creating test database for alias 'default'... Got an error creating the test database: (1044, "Access denied for user 'comp24394'@'%' to database 'test_comp24394'") How can I get around this? Is it possible for "test" tables to be created in the main database? Or, can I have the test database on another server from the main - if so, what would be the steps to implement this? Thank you for any help! -
Which method is best for designing custom error pages in Django?
For example, I've seen methods which design custom views with changes to URLconf, I've seen other methods that use handler404 = "mysite.views.my_custom_page_not_found_view" in URLconf with no changes to views. I've seen both of these methods explained in the docs. The easiest method I've seen is to simply create a templates/404.html without any other changes to the app. So which method is best for a production app? -
Select TruncYear start with specific year
I have Transactions stored in a Table, to select the last 3 years I wrote a simple Query in Django. I did this mid last year and it seemed to be fine. Now it would be nice if it would return me the year 2025 with 0, how could I achive that? Current Query: Transactions.objects .annotate(year=TruncYear('timestamp')) .values('year') .order_by('-year') .annotate(total=Sum('amount')) .values('year', 'total')[:3] This returns me the data for the years 2024,2023,2022 which is okay, but it would look more nice if it would return the data for 2025,2024,2023 Something like a change to get the current year and browse the table from there on. regardless of the table transactions having data for this year or not. -

Adding custom actions button to wagtail snippets
I have been trying to look through the documentation on how to add custom action buttons for wagtail snippets. No luck so far.

When referencing imported Django model, I get 'local variable referenced before assignment' error
I am trying to import a model into my Django view and then query all objects, sort them, and iterate over them. I am not getting any error when importing the model, however, when trying to query the model with songs = song.objects.all()#.order_by('-release_date'), I am getting an error: UnboundLocalError at /hotline/dbm local variable 'song' referenced before assignment /home/path/to/site/views.py, line 82, in dbm songs = song.objects.all()#.order_by('-release_date') I do not understand what the problem is, as the variable song is clearly imported from my models.py file, and I am not getting any errors importing it - so why is Python not recognizing song as what I imported from my models.py file?

How to create GeneratedField with lookup from settings file?
While using Django 5.1, I'm trying to create a GeneratedField which should return True or False depending on which file has been uploaded. The model will accept both image- and video files.

Django's select_for_update(skip_locked=True) not compatible with spanning
I was attempting to lock the oldest item in a queryset and bashed my head over why it was not working. Every time I used this first code snippet the entire query set would be locked. with transaction.atomic(): locked_entry = Entry.objects.select_for_update(skip_locked=True).filter( event__date=distribution_date(), status='pending', entry_type__name='Premium' ).order_by('-created_at').first() print(locked_entry) sleep(4) However, upon passing the exact FK instances the lock began to correctly only lock the oldest instance. I'm sure it has something to do with how the SQL is called but was hoping for an explanation if there are any Django experts out there :) with transaction.atomic(): locked_entry = Entry.objects.select_for_update(skip_locked=True).filter( event=Event.objects.get(date=distribution_date()), status='pending', entry_type=EntryType.objects.get(name='Premium') ).order_by('-created_at').first() print(locked_entry) sleep(4) -

Django model foreign key to whichever model calls it
I am getting back into Django after a few years, and am running into the following problem. I am making a system where there are 2 models; a survey, and an update. I want to make a notification model that would automatically have an object added when I add a survey object or update object, and the notification object would have a foreign key to the model object which caused it to be added. However I am running into a brick wall figuring out how I would do this, to have a model with a foreign key which can be to one of two models, which would be automatically set to the model object which creates it. Any help with this would be appreciated. I am trying to make a model that looks something like this (psuedocode): class notification(models.model): source = models.ForeignKey(to model that created it) #this is what I need help with start_date = models.DateTimeField(inherited from model that created it) end_date = models.DateTimeField(inherited from model that created it) Also, just to add some context to the question and in case I am looking at this from the wrong angle, I am wanting to do this because both surveys and … -
Use the same logging.Handler in different main files
Cheers! I am developping a Django Projekt and I want to display my backend loggings to the forntend. Thats why i created a central logging Handler that pushes logs into a buffer. Every 20 sec my frontend sends a request to flush the buffer and display the log events. Central Loging Class (log.py): import logging class BufferedLogHandler(logging.Handler): def __init__(self): super().__init__() self.log_buffer = [] # Lokaler Puffer für Logs def emit(self, record): log_entry = self.format(record) # Format den Log-Eintrag self.log_buffer.append(log_entry) def create_external_log(self, level=None, timestamp=None, message=None): asctime = timestamp msg = message record = logging.LogRecord( level=level, msg=msg, asctime=asctime, lineno=0, exc_info=None, args=None, name= None, pathname="frontend", ) self.emit(record=record) return BufferedLogHandler.create_empty_response() def flush_buffer(self): logs_to_send = self.log_buffer[:] print(f'logs_to_send:{logs_to_send}') print("---------------------") self.log_buffer = [] return logs_to_send @staticmethod def create_empty_response(): response = {'message':""} return response buffered_handler = BufferedLogHandler() def setup_logger(bufferedHandler): # Den Logger holen (Root-Logger oder benannten Logger) logger = logging.getLogger() # Du kannst auch den Root-Logger verwenden # Setze das Log-Level (z.B. DEBUG, INFO) logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG) # Erstelle einen Handler (z.B. für Konsole oder Datei) file_handler = logging.FileHandler('myapp.log') # Für eine Log-Datei # Erstelle ein Format für die Log-Nachrichten formatter = logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s - %(levelname)s - %(filename)s - %(lineno)d - %(message)s') # Setze das Format für beide Handler bufferedHandler.setFormatter(formatter) file_handler.setFormatter(formatter) … -
Django ManyToMany through model/table indexing
For ManyToMany relationships Django will automatically create a trough model/table. For example for: class Magazine(models.Model): pass class Article(models.Model): magazines = models.ManyToManyField('Magazine', related_name='articles') there will be a Article.through manager and model. The associated table will have two separate indices for each of the columns. Two questions: How do I create a new index on both columns? I could run a raw SQL query to do it, but I wonder if there is a way to do something similar to how index_together, which is easy to maintain and track. Is there a reason why Django doesn't automatically add an index to both columns? In my test, I manually created the index and saw Postgres hit it a lot and gain performance.
