In Django, how can I delete object inside template by clicking link?
I made a notification system. When "B" user comments at "A" user's post, notification sends to A. This is my part of my code. models.py from django.db import models from freeboard.models import FreeBoardComment from users.models import CustomUser class Notification(models.Model): TYPE_CHOCIES = ( ("FreeBoardComment", "FreeBoardComment"), ) creator = models.ForeignKey(CustomUser, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True, related_name="creator") to = models.ForeignKey(CustomUser, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True, related_name="to") notification_type = models.CharField(max_length=50, choices=TYPE_CHOCIES) comment = models.CharField(max_length=1000, blank=True, null=True) post_id = models.IntegerField(null=True) class Meta: ordering = ["-pk"] def __str__(self): return "From: {} - To: {}".format(self.creator, self.to) notification/views.py from django.views.generic import ListView from .models import Notification def create_notification(creator, to, notification_type, comment, post_id): if creator.email != to.email: notification = Notification.objects.create( creator=creator, to=to, notification_type=notification_type, comment=comment, post_id=post_id, ) notification.save() class NotificationView(ListView): model = Notification template_name = "notification/notification.html" freeboard/views.py ... @login_required def comment_write(request, pk): post = get_object_or_404(FreeBoardPost, pk=pk) if request.method == 'POST': form = CreateFreeBoardComment(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): comment = form.save(commit=False) comment.comment_writer = request.user comment.post = post comment.save() # 포인트 award_points(request.user, 1) ### NOTIFICATION PART!!!! ### create_notification(request.user, post.author, "FreeBoardComment", comment.comment_text, post.pk) ### NOTIFICATION PART !!! ### return redirect("freeboard_detail", pk=post.id) else: form = CreateFreeBoardComment() return render(request, "bbs/freeboard/free_board_comment.html", {"form": form}) notification.html {% extends "base.html" %} {% block css_file %} <link href="/static/css/notification/notification.css" rel="stylesheet"> {% endblock %} {% block content %} <ul class="list-group"> … -
How to login to a user already created without password?
I have a web page developed in django that uses the django authentication system.

1 form, 1 class based view, 2 models, how?
I'm new to Django so explain it like I'm 5 I've been racking my brain(and the internet), not even sure its actually possible. I've tried a lot of different links/guides but either the concept is not going in or I'm trying to do something that isn't possible. My Idea is to have: Parent/Child Model, Class Based View, one form in the template. I'm open to any suggestion and I KNOW inline-formset is probably the right answer but every example I've found is years old, the Django documentation(v3.0) doesn't seem to differ from examples. The closest I've so far managed to come is having the template show the children, I can get the parent in the same template but it isn't the same form. Where am I going wrong or what base knowledge do I need to understand this? please don't just link me to the Django docs for inline-formset with no explanation Many thanks -
Why is not `url` showing up in the DRF Response
I can't get url to be returned when I use it in a HyperlinkedModelSerializer. # model.py class Promotion(TimeStampedMixin, models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=300) # ... # views.py class PromotionViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet): serializer_class = PromotionSerializer queryset = Promotion.objects.all() def retrieve(self, request, *args, **kwargs): instance = self.get_object() serializer = self.get_serializer(instance, context={'request': request}) return Response(serializer.data) # serializers.py class PromotionSerializer(serializers.HyperlinkedModelSerializer): url = serializers.HyperlinkedRelatedField( view_name="campaigns:promotion-detail", read_only=True ) class Meta: model = Promotion fields = ( "url", "id", "name", ) The JSON output I receive when querying curl -X GET http://localhost/api/promotion/2/: {"id":2,"name":"My promotion"} If I use reverse to check if the view_name in the HyperlinkedRelatedField exists, it prints the correct URL. My question is: why doesn't the url show up in the response? It works any all my other views (comparing code with classes that works hasn't helped). Read the DRF documentation but I see nothing new (using version 3.11.0) -
linking search results to a its own detail page
This is a django related question: I am doing an assignment where we are playing around making a search bar then afterwards letting each individual search result linked to its own page with more details. In this context we are doing a job search engine and I need assistance in when you click each jobs posting, it takes you to a separate page with more info about the job. We already made templates for all the pages. I understand that we have to make a request to the api again after doing it for the view function in the search bar and also use templating got fill up out the detailed search results.Im just not sure how would I apply these concepts to the html file that w ehave. here's the code View function code import requests from django.shortcuts import render def home(request): context = { 'example_context_variable': 'Change me.', } return render(request, 'pages/home.html', context) def search_results(request): search_query = request.GET['searchterm'] context = { 'result_count': 0, 'search_term': search_query, } context['results_count'] = 0 url = 'https://jobs.github.com/positions.json?location=bay+area&description=' url += search_query response = requests.get(url) results_data = response.json() job_list =[] for result in results_data: job_list.append(result) context['job_results'] = job_list return render(request, 'pages/search_results.html', context) **detailed Search Results Html … -
django 1.2 (jinja) form that takes in information and emails it

How do I add a custom filter in a django child model?
I'm pretty new to django and I'm working on an existing app that I did not write. The app handles some document management activities and whenever a document thumbnail is displayed, it currently displays all associated metadata. In my case, some of the metadata rows are unwanted (guid's are not very human friendly) and I therefore want to exclude some of the metadata. There are principally three tables, one for Documents, One for Metadata types, and a join table that ties them together. The guts of the join table are like so: class DocumentMetadata(models.Model): document = models.ForeignKey( on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='metadata', to=Document, verbose_name=_('Document') ) metadata_type = models.ForeignKey( on_delete=models.CASCADE, to=MetadataType, verbose_name=_('Type') ) value = models.CharField( blank=True, db_index=True, ), max_length=255, null=True, verbose_name=_('Value') ) The current code does this as it builds the thumbnail: queryset=context['object'].metadata.all() I've got a test version like so: context['object'].metadata.exclude(name__endswith='_Id') I have a convention where the guid metadata field name ends in _Id, and this filter works fine and does what I want it to do right now. I don't like it though. In future, I want to add a human_readable boolean field to the metadata type table and there are other places in the code base where I'll want to sift … -
JavaScript dropdown hidden in a css grid column
I have an admin header from Django which is divided in 2 columns with css grid. I included a JavaScript dropdown effect on the user icon to show other elements like "Change Password" and "Log Out" but the problem is that dropdown stays hidden inside the column, doesn't show outside.

Save a list of strings in django sql-lite database from view
I want to save a list of strings in django sql-lite database from view.

How do I insert multiple blocks into the base.html in Django?
Possibly I'm misunderstanding the inheritance of templates in Django, but why doesn't the below code work? Both child templates are inheriting from the parent template with different block names. base.html: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <title>Title</title> </head> <body> <h1>test</h1> {% block index %}{% endblock %} {% block nav %}{% endblock %} </body> </html> index.html {% extends 'blog/base.html' %} {% block index %} <h1>This is the index.html page</h1> {% endblock %} nav.html {% extends 'blog/base.html' %} {% block nav %} <h1>This is the nav.html</h1> {% endblock %} I'm trying to grasp the concept of using multiple blocks so that I can place them on the templates that I need. -
django-ckeditor jquery call to display real-time editing
I am creating a django app that uses a RichTextField from django-ckeditor. I'm displaying a side-by-side of what the form will look like once submitted by using jQuery for my input fields. When transitioning from a TextField to RichTextField my jQuery function stopped working. // project.js // old keyup function for TextField var textInput = $('#id_text'); function setText(value) { $('#preview-text').text(value) } setText(textInput.val()) textInput.keyup(function () { var newText = $(this).val() setText(newText) } I have attempted this: // project.js // new jQuery function var textInput = CKEDITOR.instances['id_text'].getData(); function setText(value) { $('#preview-text').text(value) } setText(textInput) // removed .val() as this caused a TypeError: textInput.val is not a function textInput.keyup(function () { var newText = $(this).val() setText(newText) } This gives me TypeError: textInput.keyup is not a function. I would like to continue using the .keyup() function as a prompt for updating the side-by-side preview, but it appears it will need to be reworked. // project.js var textInput = $('textarea#id_text'); // specifying textarea yields [object Object] in HTML function setText(value) { $('#preview-text').text(value) } setText(textInput) textInput.keyup(function () { var newText = $(this).val() setText(newText) } The above function yields [object Object] in the <span id='preview-text'></span>.

Why isn't Django passing ImageField data via ListView to a template?
This is my first programming project, and first question on StackOverflow - so please be gentle! I've been good and checked all the relevant existing questions and answers - apologies in advance if I've missed it. I have a model that contains images: models.py class Image(models.Model): image = models.ImageField(upload_to='portfolio-images/', blank=False, null=False) uploaded_by = get_user_model() uploaded = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True, editable=False) alt_text = models.CharField(verbose_name='Alternate text', max_length=200, blank=True, null=True) def __str__(self): return self.alt_text def get_absolute_url(self): return reverse('image_detail', args=[str(self.alt_text)]) Which is handled by these views: views.py class ImageDetailView(DetailView): model = Image context_object_name = 'image' template_name = 'image_detail.html' class ImageListView(ListView): model = Image context_object_name = 'images' template_name = 'image_list.html' Now when these are passed to their relevant templates, the DetailView works as it should - passes the url to the template using this code, and the image renders in the browser. image_detail.html ... <img src="{{ image.image.url }}" alt="{{ image.alt_text }}"> ... But the ListView does not pass the url or alt-text into the template. Here's the code I use to call it in the template: image_list.html {% for image in images %} <img src="{{ images.image.url }}" alt="{{ images.alt_text }}"> {% endfor %} Weirdly, it is getting a response from the database, as the loop creates 5 …
