Django django-cors-headers returning `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` header
I feel like I get CORS issues every time I set up a new server. Does anyone see something I’m missing? Access to fetch at 'https://staging-app.example.com/api/token/' from origin 'https://staging.example.com' has been blocked by CORS policy: Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request's mode to 'no-cors' to fetch the resource with CORS disabled. I’m using django-cors-headers==3.2.1 My Middleware: MIDDLEWARE = [ 'corsheaders.middleware.CorsMiddleware', 'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware', 'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware', 'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware', 'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware', 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware', 'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware', 'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware', ] Other settings: ALLOWED_HOSTS = ["*"] CORS_ORIGIN_ALLOW_ALL = True CORS_ALLOW_CREDENTIALS = True CORS_ORIGIN_WHITELIST = [ 'https://staging.example.com', ] # If this is used, then not need to use `CORS_ORIGIN_ALLOW_ALL = True` CORS_ORIGIN_REGEX_WHITELIST = [ 'https://staging.example.com', ] I’ve implemented every single solution I could find on this thread: "No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource" in django What else am I missing? What else can I try? -

Django ProgrammingError "Table doesn't exist" looking for a table in the wrong database when running migrate --database=

auto-populate Model B with the data from Model-A and/or Model-C
firstly abstractly speaking - each time i create an order via Model A i want to auto-populate Model B with the data from Model-A and/or Model-C. now straight to the point - i want both, the customer's name & the product (which they are purchasing) to automatically appear as a concatenated string in the third model, a different one. class Customer name = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True) plus class Product name = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True) equals to class Account... customer + product (both in the same field) how to achieve this ? here are my main files. models.py from django.db import models # Create your models here. class CustomerKlase(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True) phone = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True) email = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True) dateCreated = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) def __str__(self): return '{}'.format(self.name) class TagKlase(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True) def __str__(self): return '{},'.format(self.name) class ProductKlase(models.Model): THE_CATEGORY = ( ("Indoor0","Indoor1"), ("Outdoor0","Outdoor1") ) name = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True) price = models.FloatField(null=True) category = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True, choices=THE_CATEGORY, blank=True) description = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True, blank=True) dateCreated = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) tags = models.ManyToManyField(TagKlase) def __str__(self): return '{}'.format(self.name) class AccountKlase(models.Model): customer = models.ForeignKey(CustomerKlase, null=True, on_delete=models.SET_NULL) product = models.ForeignKey(ProductKlase, null=True, on_delete=models.SET_NULL) def __str__(self): return '{} & {}'.format(self.customer, self.product) class OrderKlase(models.Model): THE_STATUS = ( ("Pending-0","Pending-1"), ("Out for delivery 0","Out … -
How should one convert Django generic CBVs to the REST API CBVs?
I'm fairly new to Django and webdev -- I've gone through the official tutorials, but I'm a bit confused when it comes to the REST framework. As I understand, the REST framework basically lets me serialize my standard Django models, so I can decouple my Django code from the frontend of the website. This gives me more options than just using the Django templating language for everything, and I can use something like React or Angular to create a frontend. The thing that has me confused is how the Django standard class based views fit into this picture. The serialization of the models makes sense to me -- that said, in my app right now, I have a few different generic CBVs (LoginViews, FormViews, etc.). Do I need to rewrite these using the CBVs provided in the REST framework, or is there something similar to the model serialization that would make this easier? -
Modifying URL patterns so they work with the slug field (Python - Django)
Users are able to write and update posts on my website. I also want the user to be able to access posts using either the PK (primary key) or Slug (Slugify, SlugField) value. I can get http://localhost:8000/post/8/ to work but not http://localhost:8000/post/working-in-malaysia/. I have looked at a few posts on Stack Overflow but I don't want http://localhost:8000/post/8/working-in-malaysia. And I don't want it to be a case of either the PK works. Or the slug works. I want the user to be able to enter either. Below is the code I have tried. I tried to merge together code I saw in a number of other posts. Sadly to no avail. urls.py urlpatterns = [ path('', PostListView.as_view(), name='blog-home'), path('post/<int:pk>/', views.post_detail, name='post-detail'), #path('post/<slug:the_slug>/', views.post_detail, name='post-detail-slug'), path('post/<slug:url>/', views.post_detail, name='post-detail-slug'), path('post/new/', PostCreateView.as_view(), name='post-create'), path('post/<int:pk>/update/', PostUpdateView.as_view(), name='post-update'), path('post/<int:pk>/delete/', PostDeleteView.as_view(), name='post-delete'), path('about/', views.about, name='blog-about'), path('facebook/',TemplateView.as_view(template_name='blog/index.html'), name="facebook") ] views.py class PostDetailView(DetailView): model = Post # Should match the value after ':' from url <slug:the_slug> #slug_url_kwarg = 'the_slug' slug_url_kwarg = 'url' pk_url_kwarg = "id" # Should match the name of the slug field on the model slug_field = 'url' # DetailView's default value: optional query_pk_and_slug = True def dispatch(): post = get_object_or_404(Post) comments = post.comments.filter(active=True, slug=slug) new_comment = … -
Nginx routing everything to /
I used to have the following nginx.conf: upstream xyz{ server web:8000; } server { listen 80; return 301 https://$host$request_uri; } server { listen 443 ssl http2; listen [::]:443 ssl http2; ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/certs/localhost.crt; ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/private/localhost.key; ssl_protocols TLSv1.2 TLSv1.1 TLSv1; location / { proxy_pass http://xyz/; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_redirect off; } location /staticfiles/ { alias /home/app/web/staticfiles/; } } And when you went to localhost it directed you to web docker image and showed you exactly what you were suppose to see. It was using django and wasnt terribly nice so we created a new UI and attempted to reach the back end via this, but even when I go to localhost/rest/ its directing me to the UI and not to what it was pointing to before just some of the images aren't there: upstream xyz { server web:8000; } server { listen 80; return 301 https://$host$request_uri; } server { listen 443 ssl http2; listen [::]:443 ssl http2; ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/certs/localhost.crt; ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/private/localhost.key; ssl_protocols TLSv1.2 TLSv1.1 TLSv1; location /rest/ { proxy_pass http://xyz/; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_redirect off; } location /staticfiles/ { alias /home/app/web/staticfiles/; } location / { root /static_ui_volume/; try_files $uri $uri/ … -
How do you set input formats for modelformset_factory in Django?

Can I not use django.contrib.contenttypes?
I use django-admin startproject mysite and created a sample django project. I don't think the sample project has any models so I commented out "django.contrib.contenttypes" in INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py. I also commented out all middlewares. I then wrote a simple view from django.shortcuts import render def index(request): return render(request, 'hello.html') and hello.html is just a blank file. Once I access the page, django throws exception Model class django.contrib.contenttypes.models.ContentType doesn't declare an explicit app_label and isn't in an application in INSTALLED_APPS. Can anyone help explain the exception? The sample project doesn't have any model, why do I need django.contrib.contenttypes? Can django websites live without django.contrib.contenttypes? -
is there a way to automatically update database structure in django as soon as new field added/updated?
Basically subj. I know that there are some implementations, using django-idmapper but I haven't found any instructions how to implement that in an actual project. The idea is that during the development it would superuseful if the change in the database (new models added to models.py, new fields added to existing models, etc. would automatically lead to database reset, and new migrations applied. In development only, of course. Any ideas or ready-made solutions that are available? -

Updating Model Field from Views.py
I have a feeling I am missing something obvious and syntax related here so I apologize in advance. I would like the status of a user to be automatically updated when they successfully process a form. # Models.py class Account(AbstractBaseUser): status_list = ( ('R',"RED"), ('B',"BLUE"), ('G',"GREEN"),) status = models.CharField(max_length=1, choices=status_list, default='R') value = models.CharField(max_length=30, unique=False, blank=True) #Forms.py class Form(forms.ModelForm): class Meta: model = Account fields = ('value', ) # Views.py def View(request): if request.POST: form = Form(request.POST, instance=request.user) if form.is_valid(): form.initial = {"value": request.POST['value'],} form.save() #Here is the issue V Account.objects.filter(status=Account.status).update(status='B') return redirect('status') I have tried the solutions presented in both of these two posts: 1. Editing model field from Views.py 2. Object has no attribute 'update' as well as a host of other random and excessively creative combinations. Does anyone happen to know the proper syntax for this call? -
How to filter ModelAdmin autocomplete_fields results from clientside input
This is a followup on this thread: How to filter ModelAdmin autocomplete_fields results with the context of limit_choices_to Uberdude proposed a solution which works great to customize the autoselect queryset based on the field which triggered the request, but I would also need to filter based on input from the client side, most specifically a checkbox which is not a model field, and only for some of the fields in the form as in this form excerpt. I managed to apply the checkbox to the widget by overriding your AutocompleteSelect widget as: class AutocompleteSelectCb(AutocompleteSelect): def render(self, name, value, attrs=None): s = super().render(name, value, attrs) return mark_safe('<div style="margin-bottom:10px;"><input type="checkbox" id="parent1"\ name="parentx" value="1">Search among all kennels</div>' + s) and use that widget only when the fields are present in a autocomplete_cb_fields attribute in the admin: autocomplete_fields = ['breed'] autocomplete_cb_fields = ['father', 'mother'] However, I am not sure how to get my AutocompleteSelectCb widget to send the status of the checkbox so that it can be processed in the get_search_results method. I assume with some js, but how? Any idea? -
How to cache queries in django?
I am fairly new to the concept of caching, trying to use a custom middleware to cache DB queries in django. I tried using Johnny cache but its cache invalidation logic isn't that optimised in my use case. I have a huge table, from which multiple read/write queries are being made. Johnny cache reads into the cache and invalidates it if any write query is made on the particular table. I want to have a more specific cache invalidation in my case. What are some other standard ways to do this? -
Aggregating fields in graphene/django queries
I am writing a graphene/django ORM query, where I need to aggregate the values of a particular field on all my query result objects and return it with the query. Not quite sure how to do that, as this involves some post-processing. Would appreciate it if someone can offer some guidance. Here's some sample code. Django model class 'Market' has an integer field 'num_vendors'. The Graphene wrapper is 'MarketNode' that wraps around the 'Market' model class: Model class: class Market(models.Model): num_vendors = models.IntegerField(....) Graphene class: class MarketNode(DjangoObjectType): Meta: model: Market I'd like the query to return 'market_count' (there are multiple markets) and 'vendor_count' (sum of all 'vendors' across all markets). So the query would look like: allMarkets { market_count vendor_count edges { node { ... ... num_vendors ... } } } For the market_count, I am following this example (this works fine): https://github.com/graphql-python/graphene-django/wiki/Adding-counts-to-DjangoFilterConnectionField For vendor_count (across all markets), I assume I need to iterate over the results and add all the num_vendors fields, after the query is complete and resolved. How can I achieve this? This must be a fairly common-use case, so I am sure graphene provides some hooks to do this. -

django email verification before signup allowed
I am trying to build an email verification portion of my application. So the user enters their email, hits submit, and they will get an email with a one-time "token" or link that allows them to access the actual sign up page.

The actual error says cannot import name six from django.utils.

Is there a better way to do verification emails upon registration? -
Setting up SendGrid using Django - User input "from_email"
All the Google searching in the world hasn't answered my question, so hoping someone can help me out. I have a Django based "Contact Me" webpage, which uses a form and the Django send_mail function. My app is hosted through Heroku.

Mail cannot be sent until this error is resolved. Visit https://sendgrid.com/docs/for-developers/sending-email/sender-identity/ to see the Sender Identity requirements') This seems to imply to me that the "from_email" needs to be MY verified email on SendGrid, and not the email of the person trying to contact me?

Form not saving new object to database
I have a form named ProtocolUserCredentialsForm. The main objective of processCredsForm is is to save the user input for the data_source_username, user, data_source, and data_source_password and assign it these creds in a new object in a database. Get displays the actual form and the html. For Post, it sends the user to a new page with form.html, by clicking submit on the first page (that has upgrade_user_creds.html and the form). When the user clicks the submit button, I need the credentials to save and for a new object to be created. I am just confused on why this is not creating a new ProtocolUserCredentials object in the database when I check admin?
