Problem with Django Forms and models (Enter a valid URL.)
My idea is to get a img from the user using the form (it can be local on her computer) and after the form is sent the system upload it to imgBB. The problem is that the form is not valid, because it says "Enter a valid URL.". class FeriaForm(forms.ModelForm): #... Others fields image = forms.URLField( label="", widget=forms.ClearableFileInput(attrs={'class': 'form-input'}) ) class Meta: model = JobFair fields = [ 'title', 'description', 'start_event_date', 'end_event_date', 'start_hour', 'end_hour', 'department', 'city', 'direction', 'maximum_capacity', 'is_visible', 'keynote_speaker', 'image' ] This model JobFair class JobFair(models.Model): organizer = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='job_fairs', null=True) title = models.CharField(max_length=255) description = models.TextField() start_event_date = models.DateField() end_event_date = models.DateField(null=True) department = models.CharField(max_length=255) city = models.CharField(max_length=255) start_hour = models.TimeField(auto_now=False, auto_now_add=False) end_hour = models.TimeField(auto_now=False, auto_now_add=False, null=True) maximum_capacity = models.IntegerField(null=True) number_of_registered = models.IntegerField(default=0, null=True) is_visible = models.BooleanField(default=True) direction = models.CharField(max_length=255) keynote_speaker = models.CharField(max_length=255) image = models.URLField(blank=True, null=True) and this view where I used the form. def add_fair_view(request): if request.method == 'POST': form = FeriaForm(request.POST, request.FILES) # Manejar datos y archivos if form.is_valid(): image_file = request.FILES.get('image') # Obtener el archivo de la imagen # Subir el archivo a ImgBB try: response = requests.post( IMGBB_API_URL, data={'key': config('IMGBB_API_KEY')}, files={ 'image': (image_file.name, image_file.file, image_file.content_type) } ) response_data = response.json() if response.status_code … -
DRF issue while attempting to inspectdb command error appears: # The error was: ORA-00904: "USER_TABLES"."DEFAULT_COLLATION": invalid identifier
I have an Oracle database version 11.5.10.2. Recently, I study DjangoRestFramework in order to perform own APIs. Firstly, command python manage.py runserver doesn't work due to unable to connect to database. Then I imported oracledb module to settings.py file and added following command: oracledb.init_oracle_client(lib_dir=r'C:\\oracle\\instantclient_23_6') Without client no any connection appears for Oracle database. After that command 'python manage.py runserver' does connect to Oracle DB without errors. Since I don't need to do any changes in database due to many finance records I would upload models structure for my necessary tables only for API use GET HTTP method protocol. So, not at all tables are need to be inspected and moved to models.py file. Thus, for testing I add following command im command prompt: 'python manage.py inspectdb ap.ap_invoices_all' and output text is following: # This is an auto-generated Django model module. # You'll have to do the following manually to clean this up: # \* Rearrange models' order # \* Make sure each model has one field with primary_key=True # \* Make sure each ForeignKey and OneToOneField has `on_delete` set to the desired behavior # \* Remove `managed = False` lines if you wish to allow Django to create, modify, and … -
Google Picker popup window not loading - Django
I am using Google's documentation on the Google Picker at https://developers.google.com/drive/picker/guides/sample and the popup for google drive is not opening when i use this code in django template. I authorize my gmail account but the popup is just not loading. It works fine when i run it via live server on a plain html ( so everything is setup good regarding API_KEY, CLIENT_ID and APP_ID ) but when i run the code inside django, the popup is not there. I tried 3 different (django) projects and the issue persists. Google console is not showing any errors, nothing, it's blank. I do see that APIs return 200 message, so i suspect something about Django is not working well. Cookies or whatever it can be, but i spent past several hours on this and can't find a solution -
How to persist model changes for specific models on transaction rollback in django atomic request
I have a Django project with ATOMIC_REQUESTS=True. When authentication fails I need to store critical data for the login attempt, here is example code: class LoginSerializer(serializers.Serializer): ... def validate(self, data): ... user = authenticate(email=email, password=password) if user is None: failed_login_attempt(email) raise serializers.ValidationError("Invalid credentials") def failed_login_attempt(email): user = User.objects.get(email=email) user.lock_status = "LOCKED" user.save() Device.objects.create(user=user, ip="127.0.0.1", fingerprint="some-fingerprint") Activity.objects.create(user=user, type="failed_login_attempt") Constraints: Raising the ValidationError causes all changes (including updates to user.lock_status, Device and Activity) to be rolled back. This behavior is expected because of the global transaction but I need these changes to persist. I cannot remove ATOMIC_REQUESTS=True as it's crucial for other parts of the application. Goal: I want to ensure that the failed_login_attempt function persists changes even if the ValidationError rolls back the rest of the transaction. What’s the best way to persist those critical changes? What I've tried: Wrapping failed_login_attempt in transaction.atomic() This doesn’t work because they are still part of the outer transaction. Bypassing the ORM and using raw SQL connections.cursor() feels like a hack so I would prefer to avoid it. -
Single 'through' model for multiple m2m fields
I'm trying to extend and refactor some legacy project. I have some set of models which represent "hardware" of some assebled device. Something like : class ComponentA(models.Model) brand = models.CharField() model = models.CharField() category = models.ForeignKey(Category) class Configuration(models.Model): component_a = ForeignKey(ComponentA) component_b = ForeignKey(ComponentB) component_n... class Device(models.Model): configuration = models.ForeignKey(Configuration) The goal is to extent ComponentA...ComponentN with Many2Many field which suppose to contain some extra parts and those parts quantity it consist of. However I found it weird to have through model for each Component model. All of the Component models shoud have a quantity for further statistic/calculations. Is there is some "clean" approach for implementation such a functionality? -
Firebase Push Notifications are not received in Django template but working in other external applications
I have a major problem with Firebase push notifications. I have a Django application with a configured function to send notifications. The function works for sending notifications to a mobile app and a separate React app. However, recently there has been a need for notifications to also reach the same application in Django - meaning the server sends a notification, and the template receives and displays an alert. I configured everything as per the documentation, and notifications are received when they originate from the Firebase console, but those sent from my server are completely ignored and not received. Where should I start looking for the issue? Let me add that sending notifications does not throw any errors. I’m out of ideas on what to do. -

Django Site Stopped Working After SSL Certificate Renewal: "No Patterns in URLconf"
I have a Django site that was deployed and functioning properly. However, after the SSL certificate expired, I tried to set up a free certificate. Since then, my site no longer works on the server, but it continues to run fine in the local environment. When running the server, I encounter the following error: django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: The included URLconf '<module 'homepage.urls' from '/home/omar/Dizeta/homepage/urls.py'>' does not appear to have any patterns in it. If you see the 'urlpatterns' variable with valid patterns in the file then the issue is probably caused by a circular import. here's the code urlpatterns in urls.py for more informations : from django.urls import path from • import views #if settings.

I can't get rid of CSRF checks
First of all, I know how necessary csrf is and what disasters will happen to me if I don't use it, I have read enough about it. I want to disable csrf checks by taking all kinds of risks.

Trying to finish scrape specific data from websites for my Solr search engine for my Django project
I am trying to finish the backend (Django) of my Solr search engine. I defined my fields in search_indexes.py, created my Solr core, configured my schema.xml and rebuilt my index. A little backstory to my search engine. The vertical search engine will be focused on homeowners searching for local arborists (tree services) by putting in queries. The documents with the fields I have created and indexed are company name, types of services, reviews etc…. So in order for me to finish the search engine, I need to scrape some data from arborist websites, that is company names, reviews, types of service. From my basic understanding of web scraping/indexing, I have to follow these steps to accomplish this. Send GET requests to url’s -- parsing the raw HTML data with BeautifulSoup to find elements/tags that contains the desired data -- save it in a JSON file -- indexing via Solr. The company name is inside 'meta_tag = soup.find('meta', attrs={'name': 'description'})', reviews is inside '' and types of services is inside of the website HTML/JSON structure. Now I have created the files in my Django project: scrape.py, parser.py, save_json.py and solr_index.py to perform these four tasks. So I would have to split … -

VS Code Testing - creating testing profiles to run different options

Are there any documentations to add a profile? I couldnt find anything online. If I add a new profile, will it allow me to switching between pytests options easily (i.e. --reuse-db). -
Triggering Stripe Events Results in 401 Unauthorized in Django using JWT
I am integrating stripe into a django project and am receiving a 401 unauthorized for every attempt to contact my webhook endpoint by stripe.

How should i deploy my full stack app. 2 different git repos or 2 different azure app services
So I'm am in charge of the frontend with angular of this webapp while someone else does the backend with django. I am trying to implement CI/CD and deploy this app to azure using github actions but I dont really know how to do this efficiently. I created a github repo and initialized the frontend and backends folders seperately and pushed the code to a dev branch in my git repo then created an azure account and created a resources-gp and also 1 azure app service and connected my github repo to it and selected python as workflow and it was connected but in my github repo i see this error: Github error Github same error And here the frontend and backend are all in one repo but when creating the workflow i specified just python i assume that was just for the backend but even though i still see this errors above. Can someone help me out here please? -
Django model form widget not renderiing
Framework – Django. I am trying to create a contact form with input field attributes. I have a problem with the first field "name". The second to fourth fields come out perfectly in html. Here is my models.py: from django.db import models class md_contactalpha(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=100, verbose_name='Name',null=False, blank=False ) email=models.EmailField(max_length=100,verbose_name='Email', unique=True,null=False,blank=False) phone = models.CharField( max_length=15, verbose_name='Phone',null=True,blank=True) message = models.CharField(max_length=512,verbose_name='Message', null=True, blank=True, ) def __str__(self): return self.name Here is the forms.py file: from django import forms from .models import md_contactalpha class fm_contactalpha(forms.ModelForm): class Meta: model = md_contactalpha fields = ('name', 'email', 'phone', 'message') widgets = { 'name':forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'input_text', 'placeholder': 'Full Name'}), 'email':forms.EmailInput(attrs={'class':'input_text'}), 'phone':forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'input_text'}), 'message':forms.Textarea(attrs={'class':'message_box','rows':5}), } Here is the html file: <form method="post"> {% csrf_token %} <form method="POST"> {{ form.as_p }} </form> <button type="submit">Send Message</button> As mentioned the last 3 fields work perfectly. The “name” field does not fill any from the widget and produces this - <input type="" class= placeholder="Name" name="Name"> &lt;django.forms.fields.CharField object at 0x7fb2ea920ce0&gt; I have checked other posts on the subject of widgets but there seems to be no answer for why one field called name should have a problem. I would greatly appreciate any assistance. Thank-you. -

Django local development with uvicorn
It's possible to add ASGI support to python manage.py runserver, so the local development server, by installing daphne and adding it to INSTALLED_APPS. See docs here. This is how the result looks: System check identified no issues (0 silenced). December 02, 2024 - 20:50:29 Django version 5.0, using settings 'contractscounsel.settings' Starting ASGI/Daphne version 4.1.2 development server at http://127.0.0.1:8000/ Quit the server with CONTROL-C. Is it possible to do the same, but with uvicorn instead of daphne? -

Automatic tenant name generation in django
A bit of preface first. I'm building a multi-tenant consumer facing application using Django/DRF. I'm (trying) not to use any 3rd party package for the multi-tenancy part. Instead I simply made a Tenant model that has a OneToOne field in the User model, so that there is a main tenant's table where all other tables have a foreign key pointing to it. Something like this: class Tenant(models.Model): tenant_id = f'{models.UUIDField(primary_key=True, default=RandomUUID, editable=False)}' tenant_name = models.CharField(max_length=255, default=get_user_email()) # How? class UserAccount(AbstractBaseUser, PermissionsMixin): tenant = models.OneToOneField(Tenant, on_delete=models.CASCADE) user_id = f'{models.UUIDField(primary_key=True, default=RandomUUID, editable=False)}' first_name = models.CharField(max_length=255) last_name = models.CharField(max_length=255) email = models.EmailField(unique=True, max_length=255) So then I tried to create function in models.py in the Tenant app that would return the user's email and then use that as a callable for a default value in tenant_name like so: from users.models import UserAccount def get_user_email(): return UserAccount.user.email class Tenant(models.Model): tenant_id = f'{models.UUIDField(primary_key=True, default=RandomUUID, editable=False)}' tenant_name = models.CharField(max_length=255, default=get_user_email()) But when I go to run makemigrations, it tells me that it cannot import UserAccount from user.models (most likely due to a circular import). So, am I on the right track? How do I avoid circular imports? -

Django Query API select_related in multi-table count query
Imagine I'm trying to count the number of tree cultivars in a certain park, and the trees are grouped in specific fields within the park. One catch is that trees can be replanted, so I want to count only existing trees and empty locations (removed IS NULL for trees currently planted, and the LEFT and RIGHT JOIN for locations not yet planted). After wandering through lots of Django select_related posts and documentation, I cannot see how to do this through Django's Query API. I have the park ID, so I'd be doing this starting with the Parks model in views.py. Am I missing something obvious (or not obvious) in Django's Query API? The following SQL does what I'd like: WITH p AS ( SELECT t.cultivar, l.id AS loc FROM trees t JOIN locations l ON t.location = l.id JOIN fields d ON l.field = d.id WHERE d.park = 'SOME_PARK_ID' AND t.removed IS NULL ) SELECT c.name, count(*) FROM p LEFT JOIN cultivars c ON p.cultivar = c.id RIGHT JOIN locations l ON p.loc = l.id GROUP BY name; For example: +--------+-------+ | name | count | |--------+-------| | <null> | 2 | | HGG | 2 | | BOX | … -
Django-TailwindCSS staticfile distribution not working
I am using the Django-Tailwind library. (https://django-tailwind.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html) Everything during development on my local machine works fine, i.e. all the styles are shown. But when I go to deploy it on my digital ocean droplet, no tailwindcss styling is shown at all. As per documentation, before deployment I ran python manage.py tailwind build and built the tailwind style file. I then did python manage.py tailwind collectstatic to collect the style file. It is thus stored in staticfiles/css/dist/styles.css . This is what the relevant code in my settings.py file looks like: INSTALLED_APPS = [ ... 'django.contrib.staticfiles', "whitenoise.runserver_nostatic", 'tailwind', 'theme', "django_browser_reload", ... ] STATICFILES_STORAGE = "whitenoise.storage.CompressedManifestStaticFilesStorage" STATIC_URL = 'static/' STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "staticfiles/") STATICFILES_DIRS = [BASE_DIR / "static" ] TAILWIND_APP_NAME = 'theme' Does anyone have a clue as to what is happening? -

How to apply filters to searchbar generated with Datatables on Django?
I am trying to add filters to the search bar but I am alittle lost, I would like the filters to make it easier to search in the different columns (Such as, Sku, Name, Cost, Price and weight).
