Could not find the variable, namely could not find the key "VariableDoesNotExist at /genres/"
I can not get the objects on the template that are associated with the mptt django model. Failed lookup for key [genres]. I have a model that is linked to another model. I use mptt django so that the object is connected through the relationship of many to many. Everything is fine on the administrative panel, but this problem occurs when displaying an object on a template. What should I do best? Maybe I am setting the cycle for the object incorrectly ? models.py: from django.db import models from django.urls import reverse from django.utils import timezone from mptt.models import MPTTModel, TreeForeignKey, TreeManyToManyField class Genre(MPTTModel): name = models.CharField(max_length=50, unique=True, verbose_name='Подкатегория') slug = models.SlugField(max_length=200, null=True, blank=True, unique=True, verbose_name='Nazvanie_kategorii') parent = TreeForeignKey('self', on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True, blank=True, related_name='children', verbose_name='Категория') is_active = models.BooleanField(default=False, verbose_name='Активность категории') created = models.DateField(blank=True, null=True, default=timezone.now, verbose_name='Дата создания записи') updated = models.DateField(blank=True, null=True, default=timezone.now, verbose_name='Дата ред-ия записи') class MPTTMeta: order_insertion_by = ['name'] verbose_name = 'Тест мптт' verbose_name_plural = 'Тест мптт' class Meta: verbose_name = 'Дерево категорий' verbose_name_plural = 'Дерево категорий' def __str__(self): return '%s' % self.name def get_absolute_url(self): return reverse('test_mptt:promotion_list_by_category', args=[self.slug]) views.py: from django.shortcuts import render, get_object_or_404 from .models import Genre, Promotion, PromotionDetails from django.core.paginator import Paginator, EmptyPage, PageNotAnInteger def show_genres(request, category_slug=None): … -
Django url pathing, home url always overwriting path('', views.home, name='home')
from django.urls import path from . import views urlpatterns = [ path('signup/', views.signup, name='signup'), path('', views.home, name='home'), ] this is my code for the URLs under my something I call timetable from django.contrib import admin from django.urls import path, include urlpatterns = [ path('admin/', admin.site.urls), path('signup/' , include('timetable.urls')), path('', include('timetable.urls')), ] this is the code for the main urls.py so I know that the call to the other url.py works as if I take the '' (home) URL out it redirects to the right URL (the view that I have in place) but if I have the home URL in it just always goes straight to that URL, is there any way like in react where I can do Exact or do you guys know of any solution for this that is simple -
Correct way of overriding URLs by installed apps
Im facing with an issue attempting to override the URL of a 3rd party app (View flow) that i installed to my system. As mentioned in this thread : enter link description here it should work as long as it is above the app- supplied url. I will demonstrate some of my code . url.py urlpatterns = [ url( r'^pipeline/(?P<process_pk>\d+)/documents/(?P<task_pk>\d+)/assign/$', OverrideTaskView.as_view(), {'flow_class': Pipeline , 'flow_task': Pipeline.documents}, name="documents__assign"), path('pipeline/', include((pipeline_urls, 'pipeline'))), #<--- this is the pre-supplied URLs views.py class OverrideTaskView(AssignTaskView,FormView): #<-- inherited the view from the third party app to overwrite it form_class=AssignForm action_name = 'assign' def get_context_data(self, **kwargs): context = super(OverrideTaskView, self).get_context_data(**kwargs) context['activation'] = self.activation return context The redirection to the view is correct and works perfectly. However the issue is that by overriding the view in this method, it seems that the system is unable to find other URLs that was supplied by the third party app. error Reverse for 'detail' not found. 'detail' is not a valid view function or pattern name. debug page URLs admin/ ^pipeline/(?P<process_pk>\d+)/documents/(?P<task_pk>\d+)/assign/$ [name='documents__assign'] pipeline/ ^archive/$ [name='archive'] pipeline/ ^action/cancel/(?P<process_pk>\d+)/$ [name='action_cancel'] pipeline/ ^(?P<process_pk>\d+)/$ [name='detail'] #<--- here!

how to migrate django models to new database
i develope a django project on my local system, and now i deployed that to a server. i used MySql as database. whenever i try to migrate my models (using python manage.py migrate or python manage.py makemigrations) to server's new database, it shows me following error: django.db.utils.ProgrammingError: (1146, "Table '<DB_NAME>.mainapp_service' doesn't exist") and doesn't create tables into the database. i didn't move any of my local migration files to server, just moved mainapp/migrations/__init__.py file. how can i create all tables and run my app? -
Should I add multiple migration files into git repository with Django?

use of url in django
I have a doubt in use of urls and path in urls.py. I have tried a url in django as: url('budget-info/<str:username>',views.app_view, name='app') along with: return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('app', kwargs={'username':user.username})) and return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('app', args=(user.username,))) in my views.py. I am getting error of this type: Reverse for 'app' with keyword arguments '{'username': 'admin'}' not found. 1 pattern(s) tried: ['budget-info/<str:username>'] However this is working fine with path in replace of url. I cannot understand why this is happening considering that both url and path are used to design url. -

Django Rest Framework; how to create APIs for a model which has foreignkeys to multiple models?

Get all refrigerators for a user. Delete the user refrigerator entry from UserRefrigerator model. What will be the REST APIs standard to achieve this? I was thinking of creating following APIs. # Create user refrigerator entry POST /users/user-uid/refrigerators/ { "refrigerator": "refrigerator-uid" } # List all refrigerators for a user. GET /users/user-uid/refrigerators/ Response should be list of refrigerator objects. I can write my own APIView to achieve this but I wanted to know if this can be done using ViewSets and Serializers. -

How do I fetch post.id for like button in AJAX - Django?

How to call various python functions in a Django project from the front-end?
I'm working on a chatbot type of web application which I need to build using Django. I have developed a small prediction ML model and have build a small flow for the conversation to take place. The conversation flow contains a class and few functions inside it. The conversation flow module is something like this: class Arbitrary(object): def A(self): abc = input() ## perform some operation ## if this: a = Arbitrary() return a.B(abc) else: a = Arbitrary() return a.C(abc) def B(self, abc): abc = input() ## perform some operation ## return 'something' def C(self, abc): abc = input() ## perform some operation ## return 'something more' This piece of code works exactly how I want it on the terminal. The issue is now I want to create a web application in Django in such a way that there is a textbox on the webpage with a button. The user types something and with the click of the button, the text entered should be passed to the function A first and then the same function calls (flow of the conversation) must be followed like it happens in the terminal.

Django template won't re-load after changes
I'm trying to get a simple Django app working following the tutorial. I have a working view, URLconf, and template. I'm not using any packages, files, or settings not covered in the tutorial. I'm not even using a data model yet. I'm using Django 3.0.4, Python 3.6, and Ubuntu 18.04. When I make changes to the template file, they don't show up when I refresh the finished web page. I've tried clearing the browser cache and restarting the server. There's nothing I can find on the tutorial page on templates or official docs on templates to explain why this is happening or what I can do about it. All of the information I can find online and on Stack Overflow about similar problems involve "static files" from a package 'django.contrib.staticfiles', which I'm not using. I've also found this question, which I've verified is not my problem, since I've never copied template files (there's only one in the entire project and it has never moved). This is just the basic tutorial, slightly adapted. What's wrong? -
Separate fields for Users and admins in Django models.py
I have a BooleanField in my models.py file. I want it to be True for all Admins/Superusers by default, while I want it to be False for all users by default.

Something like: field_name = models.BooleanField( if user.is_superuser: default = True else: default=False ) Any help is appreciated.
