Is there a way to change the functionality of the base Django Group model?
I have a Django app with the following architecture; a Company model that holds multiple users (the user is a custom user extending AbstractUser). Each user can only be a member of one Company. We are using the base Django Group model and the base Django permissions as well. We extended the user model, so we can add the company field to it, and make the username unique per company, instead of unique globally. This allows us to have multiple users with the same username, as long as they are not a part of the same company. We want to do the same thing with the groups; be able to have multiple groups with the same name, as long as they are not tied to the same company. At one point, we extended the group model, by inheriting from the base Group model, and added the company field to it, which creates a one to one relationship between our CustomGroup and the base Group. This all works fine. The issue is we cannot find a way to change the logic of the Group model, so that the company and name field are unique together, as opposed to the name being … -

How can i connect my LDAP authentication for Django?
I am currently implementing LDAP authentication to Django. I created the Windows Server VM, and pinged it on my main pc and viceversa, also used ldapsearch -x -H ldap://192.168.0.136 -D "Administrator@statuspage.com" -W -b "DC=statuspage,DC=com" and everything works as it should, however when I try to login on django admin page with the code provided on the ldap documentation it doesn't work, neither on python manage.py shell nor on the localhost/admin page. I've been using STATUSPAGE\Administrator, Administrator@statuspage.com and Administrator alone for username, none works, here is the code I used: import ldap from django_auth_ldap.config import LDAPSearch import logging logger = logging.getLogger('django_auth_ldap') logger.addHandler(logging.StreamHandler()) logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG) AUTH_LDAP_SERVER_URI = "ldap://192.168.0.136" AUTH_LDAP_BIND_DN = "dc=statuspage,dc=com" AUTH_LDAP_BIND_PASSWORD = "my_password" #in the code I actually put the server password AUTH_LDAP_USER_SEARCH = LDAPSearch( "ou=Users,dc=statuspage,dc=com", ldap.SCOPE_SUBTREE, "(uid=%(user)s)" ) AUTH_LDAP_USER_ATTR_MAP = { "first_name": "givenName", "last_name": "sn", "email": "mail", } AUTH_LDAP_CACHE_GROUPS = True AUTH_LDAP_GROUP_CACHE_TIMEOUT = 3600 AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = ( 'django_auth_ldap.backend.LDAPBackend', 'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend', ) Everytime I log with the user on shell I get this error: Caught LDAPError while authenticating STATUSPAGE\jdoe: INVALID_CREDENTIALS({'msgtype': 97, 'msgid': 1, 'result': 49, 'desc': 'Invalid credentials', 'ctrls': [], 'info': '80090308: LdapErr: DSID-0C090439, comment: AcceptSecurityContext error, data 57, v4563'}) -
drf_spectacular not picking up complex objects
I have a serializer that looks something like this (greatly simplified) class MySerializer(serializers.Serializer): parameters = Parameters(many=True, default=[]) class Parameters(BaseSerializer): param_name = serializers.CharField(required=True, allow_blank=False) param_count = serializers.IntegerField(required=True) The drf_spectacular annotations are @extend_schema( request=None, responses={ 200: MySerializer, 400: ErrorResponseSerializer, 500: ErrorResponseSerializer }, description="Load all data" ) The swagger that is being generated for the parameters field is "parameters": [], How can I get it to generate the contents of the list with a sample parameter object.

Using Wagtail with the contrib_Table_block doesn't seem to work the same as other fields
I've been following the reference in the wagtail docs on the Table_block contrib setup. The suggested method is to make this an insert to StreamField, which works fine for me for every type of block or field except TableBlock().When using Table_block via either the docs or inserting it into an already working tutorial, it doesn't hook into the database data. In other words, most of my pages will be populated from database fields into tables. So, using the Table_Block() or TypedTableBlock() blocks makes the most sense. Whenever I do that, I get table setup info rather than data in the table. I took a simple Streamfield tutorial and inserted TableBlock() as an insert into StreamField as the reference suggests. Here is my code: ` from django.db import models from wagtail import blocks from wagtail.models import Page from wagtail.search import index from wagtail.fields import StreamField from wagtail.admin.panels import FieldPanel from wagtail.contrib.table_block.blocks import TableBlock class ScriptsPage(Page): template = 'scripts/scripts.html' script_content = StreamField([ ('paragraph', models.Scripts()), ], ) content_panels = Page.content_panels + [ FieldPanel('script_content'), ] class Scripts(TableBlock): table = ( [ # ('script_select', blocks.CharBlock(max_length=20)), ('script_name', blocks.CharBlock(max_length=20)), ('script_desc', blocks.CharBlock(max_length=200)), # body = blocks.RichTextBlock(blank=True, name="body") ('script_path', blocks.CharBlock(max_length=20)), ('script_file', blocks.CharBlock(max_length=20)), ('script_args', blocks.CharBlock(max_length=100)), ('script_output_json', blocks.CharBlock(max_length=200)), ('script_on_demand', blocks.CharBlock(max_length=50)), ('script_sched_name', … -
Apache LimitRequestBody not taking effect when using ProxyPass
I'm developing an application with Django and I'm using gunicorn and apache to deploy it. The application allows submitting images as a multipart form. I have put in place a mechanism to limit the size of the image and the dimension at Django level. I would like to limit the file size that are passed to Django at Apache level. Images are stored and retrieved with Django, so apache is not serving nor storing these uploaded images. This is the apache configuration: <VirtualHost *:443> ServerName myserver.com ServerAdmin email@example.com # limit size of the body to 10mb LimitRequestBody 10485760 Alias "/static" "/path/to/static/" <Directory /path/to/static/> Require all granted </Directory> ProxyPass /static ! # set this header to allow gunicorn to know if request is https or not RequestHeader set X_FORWARDED_PROTO 'https' env=HTTPS ProxyPreserveHost On ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8500/ ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:8500/ SSLEngine on SSLCertificateFile /path/to/certificate.pem SSLCertificateKeyFile /path/to/privatekey.pem LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-agent}i\" %{ms}T" combined_with_time CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/path/to/logs/access.log combined_with_time ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/path/to/logs/error.log </VirtualHost> With the apache configuration provided, I would expect that uploading a file bigger than 10mb (I'm using a file of about 200mb to test things) apache would return a 413 Request Entity Too Large.

iOS QR Code Scan Results in Timeout Error, Works Fine on Android
I am working on a web application where users can scan a QR code to proceed with a transaction. The following JavaScript functions handle the QR code scan status and redirect the user based on the status: postScanStatusAndRedirect() is called after a QR code is scanned. checkQRStatus() periodically checks the status of the QR code. The problem I'm encountering is that when scanning a QR code on iOS devices (Safari browser), I get a timeout error, and the following SweetAlert message is shown: "Your transaction time has expired. Please scan the QR code again". However, the same code works perfectly fine on Android devices and other browsers. async function postScanStatusAndRedirect() { try { const cacheBuster = new Date().getTime(); // Prevent caching with a unique query parameter const response = await fetch(`https://stg-api.goldatm.in/api/qrcode-status?cb=${cacheBuster}`, { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Cache-Control': 'no-store' // More aggressive cache prevention }, body: JSON.stringify({ status: 1 }), credentials: 'same-origin' // Include credentials if needed }); if (!response.ok) { throw new Error(`Network response was not ok: ${response.statusText}`); } const data = await response.json(); console.log('Scan status posted', data); setTimeout(() => { console.log('Redirecting to:', "{% url 'login' %}"); window.location.href = "{% url 'login' %}"; }, 100); // Adjust delay … -

Set admin field short_description dynamically in Django, without trigerring APPS_NOT_READY_WARNING_MSG
I'm encountering the APPS_NOT_READY_WARNING_MSG after updating to Django 5.0. The warning appears in the admin when using a custom field description set via @admin.display(). I need to include these custom columns in my list_display, where they are dynamically calculated based on the current_year retrieved from the database. Here’s an example from my admin mixin: from app.models import FiscalYear class MyAdmin(admin.Modeladmin): current_fiscal_year = FiscalYear().get_current_fiscal_year() @admin.display(description=f"FY{current_fiscal_year}") def total_exercice_courant(self, obj): total_exercice_n = obj.get_montant_exercice_n(year_n=0) return format_number_euro(total_exercice_n) if total_exercice_n else "-" To determine whether the column should be labeled FY24, FY25, etc., I currently make a database call (current_fiscal_year = FiscalYear().get_current_fiscal_fiscal_year()). However, this call during initialization is causing the issue. How can i update my admin field short_description later than at import ? -

Django User as foreignKey has strange behaviour

How to handle custom error message for Django Admin panel save_model method?
I've overwritten a save_model method for ModelAdmin. Let's say like below: def save_model( self, request, obj, form, change, ): if not change: try: if True: raise exceptions.ValidationError( _(f"Oh no, record can't be created for serious reason!") ) except exceptions.ValidationError as err: messages.set_level(request, messages.ERROR) self.message_user(request, err.message, level=messages.ERROR) return super().save_model(request, obj, form, change) I can't use Form, since I need database access to validate business logic. This almost worked, nevertheless I get redirect to main admin panel screen with I don't really like. Moreover, there is ADDITIONAL message displayed, that object does not exist (of course it doesn't exist, since it wasn't created). I will appreciate any tips how to stay on current screen and display just a custom message or at least be redirect to main admin panel screen, but without displaying additional message (just my custom one). -

Session ID Returns None After Setting Session Data in Django with React Frontend
I'm working on a Django backend with a React frontend and using sessions to manage user authentication. After successfully logging in a user, I'm setting session data (e.g., user_id, name, email, etc.), but the session ID is returning as None despite the session data being correctly stored. I've configured SESSION_ENGINE to use the database and set SESSION_SAVE_EVERY_REQUEST = True. CORS headers are properly configured with CORS_ALLOW_CREDENTIALS = True. Despite these settings, the session ID isn't being generated or returned correctly, which is causing issues with session management on the client side. How can I resolve this issue and ensure the session ID is properly generated and accessible after login?(https://i.sstatic.net/EawnCfZP.png) I configured Django's session settings to use database-backed sessions, set SESSION_SAVE_EVERY_REQUEST = True, and enabled CORS with credentials. I expected the session ID to be generated and returned after a user logs in, allowing for proper session management. However, the session ID is returning as None, even though the session data is correctly stored and accessible. I’ve also verified that CORS and session settings are properly configured but still face the issue.enter image description here -
Integrating Strapi with existing backend and database
I’m working on a website that uses a Django backend with NextJS frontend. The database used is PostgreSQL. The website can be considered as an affiliate marketing platform. So a lot of features involving brands and products are present. Now a new Strapi CMS was decided to be added to the website for handling brand and products. So the django backend will be used for all the other functions while the direct CRUD of the brands and products will be handled by Strapi. But strapi flushes the entire connected database and I don’t want to set the entire database schema in strapi since it uses only brands and products - two tables. While the current backend has about 50 tables. So this means that Strapi would require a new database instance. Now, product and brand data is also needed by the existing django backend for some functions. So is there a way that I can just use Strapi for its frontend and further plugins while I can continue to use Django as the backend.
