Is there a parameter to change the order of reactions for an activity with stream?
For a certain activity id (postid) I have an API endpoint that will return the list of reactions (comments) for that activity. It appears to me that the way in which the reactions are returned from stream is that the newest is at the top? I want the newest at the bottom like how facebook is. As far as what I've seen or tried I just see what the documentation has: https://getstream.io/docs/python/#reactions_retrieve-reactions I do see that it seems to support pagination which I also need so that's great. class ListCommentsForPost(ListAPIView): permission_classes = (IsAuthenticated,) def get(self, request, postid, *args, **kwargs): response = stream_client.reactions.filter( activity_id=postid, kind="comment", ) serializer = CommentSerializerStream(response['results'], many=True) return Response(serializer.data) Ultimately, I just expect to be able to change the order of how reactions are returned chronologically. When stepping the code I do see it is indeed an OrderedDict so maybe the answer is to just try to manually reorder it? Should probably still be a query parameter though. -
Optimize Django for loops with filter inside the loop
If i have model like this class User(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=255) organization = models.ForeignKey( "organization.Organization", on_delete=models.CASCADE ) school = models.ForeignKey( school, on_delete=models.CASCADE,) And then I receive and input of list of lists of user ID. Like this: list_of_lists_of_user_id = [ [11,21,23] , [12, 324] , [909,2,12,444,242] , ....... ] I want to return the same kind of list but not with just ID, instead I want the other value like "name" and "school" too. So I want to return the list of queryset of User's name and School I would have to loop through like this: return_list_of_query_set = [] for group in list_of_lists_of_user_id: query_set = User.values("name","school").filter( id__in=group ) return_list_of_query_set.append(query_set) How would I optimize this for loop and don't make 1000s queries -
How to setup django rest framework to only allow user that creates an object to GET,PUT,DELETE
I'm setting up a Django REST API that involves families, parents, and children. I want to setup permissions so that Admins can send a GET request to the /api/parents/ endpoint and see a list of all Parents, but User's GET requests only return the list of Parent objects that they created, or "own". I'm building an app with a React.js frontend and a Django REST backend. When a User Signs Up, they are issued a JSON Web Token using the open source simplejwt package that django has. The application involves parents and children in families. When the User tries to create a Parent object, they need to be able to retrieve the unique hyperlinked URL to their personally created Parent object in order to create a linked Child object for their children and associate it only to their Parent object. Right now, when I make a POST request to the endpoint for the Parent router, Anyone can create a Parent object as long as they are logged in. Only GET requests from admins succeed(with the attached JWT as a Bearer in Authorization in the request). Admin GET requests succeed with a list of all Parent objects in the database. If … -
AWS Elastic Beanstalk Django configuration file exception
I'm trying to deploy a sample Django (Python 3.6) application to AWS Elastic Beanstalk via the eb CLI tool. I followed this tutorial and all is going good until I get to the YAML Django configuration file. I'm using Sublime 3 for editing, at first I thought it had some problem with the encoding and/or tabs but then I tried with vim, copy-pasting the exact code from the tutorial and got the same error every time. My project structure is / /project /project/wsgi.py ... $ cat .ebextensions/django.config option_settings: aws:elasticbeanstalk:container:python: WSGIPath: project/wsgi.py When I run eb deploy I get the next error: ERROR: InvalidParameterValueError - The configuration file .ebextensions/django.config in application version 2.0.0 contains invalid YAML or JSON.

Cleaning up code to show/hide Django objects in template with JavaScript
I have a Django template that lists blog categories and tags in a sidebar and want to limit the results to only show 5 categories and tags by default. I also want to add functionality that toggles (shows/hides) the full list of categories and tags when the user clicks a link at the bottom of the category/tag lists on the sidebar. So far, the code is working. It only shows 5 categories/tags by default and when you hit 'more', it expands to the full list. Then clicking 'hide' will then revert back to hiding the extra elements and only show 5. It also changes the show/hide text to reflect that. However, there is a lot of repeated code and I want to clean it up so I'm only using 1 function and event listener for this. Javascript // Expand sidebar categories and tags let categoryLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.sidebar-categories .sidebar-item-link'); let tagLinks = document.querySelectorAll('.sidebar-tags .sidebar-item-link'); let sidebarMore = document.querySelectorAll('.sidebar-more'); let catMore = sidebarMore[0]; let tagMore = sidebarMore[1]; function truncateCatLinks(links) { for (let i = 0; i < links.length; i++) { if (i > 4) { if (links[i].style.display === 'none') { links[i].style.display = 'block'; catMore.textContent = 'Less...'; } else { links[i].style.display = 'none'; … -
Django's REST framework custom exception handling simply doesn't work

Using APIs within Django and how to display the data
I am trying to test how to display API information within a view on my Django project. I know you may have to add some installed APIs into the settings INSTALLED APPS block. This api is a simple geo one. I am new to Django and new to using APIs within it. I have managed to get my app the way I need it using Youtube videos. But now I am on my own. I have many different view classes to display differents of my app. The view below is the view Id like to place the data on. is this how I would potentially do it? Then call { country } within the HTHL to display it? class PostDetailView(DetailView): model = Post template_name = 'clients/post_detail.html' def api_test(request): # This is where the APIs are going to go. response = requests.get( 'http://api.ipstack.com/134.201.250.155?access_key=c30ffa84341bb5b9cb4b3794357d0dfa') geodata = response.json() return render(request, 'clients/post_detail.html', { 'ip': geodata['ip'], 'country': geodata['country_name'] }) I am currently getting no errors within my app, but the country element isnt displaying. -

Model turns into tuple in django's view. Whata hell?
I am trying to save a string (session hash) into django's model, but something is going wrong.. When I try to update the string, the model turns into a tuple causing AttributeError. At the beginning everything was in a one 'post' function in view and yet not working. I tried to devide that stuff into functions, but it still does not help.

Dynamically Add Form to Django Formset
I want to dynamically add a form to my Django formset. However, on button click nothing happens. I am using form models, but I am defining most elements within the template. I know this is not proper practice, but it was how I originally created my forms and I have not had time to migrate to complete form models. However, could this be causing my issues? I have never used formsets before so any tips would be greatly appreciated! I used Dave's solution here, but I am unsure as to why my implementation does not translate accordingly. template.html <div class="container"> <div id="form_set"> <form action="{% url 'presales' %}" class="presales_formset" data-total-url="{% url 'presales_total' %}" id="presalesForm" method="post" name="presalesForm"> <div class="field"> <label class="label is-large">High Level Task List</label> </div> {% csrf_token %} {{ presales_formset.management_form }} {% for presales_form in presales_formset %} <div class="section"> <div class="field"> <label class="label">Opportunity</label> <div class="select"> <select id="select_opportunity" name="select_opportunity"> <option value="">Opportunity</option> {% for opportunity in my_opportunities %} <option id="selected_opportunity" name="selected_opportunity" value="{{ opportunity.name }}">{{ opportunity.name }} </option> {% endfor %} </select> </div> </div> <label class="label">Task Description:</label> <div class="field"> <div class="control"> <input class="input" id="task_description" name="task_description" placeholder="Task Description"> </div> </div> <label class="label">Hours</label> <div class="field"> <div class="control"> <input class="input" id="hours" name="hours" placeholder="Hours"> </div> </div> <label class="label">Engineer … -

Whats the alternative to base64 encoded images
I am currently serving base64 encoded images via my Django REST API. The URL is something like www.mywebsite.de/api/images/<id> and my Django API is responding with an HTTPResponse. I am doing this because the Images are sensible and the Clients need to authenticate therefore (sending a Token) to get the images. Unfortunately I read that base64 encoded images have a lot of downsides, some are listed here: https://medium.com/snapp-mobile/dont-use-base64-encoded-images-on-mobile-13ddeac89d7c So I am asking myself now, as a beginner: What are the alternatives? How can I serve sensitive Images without Base64 encoding? I would be thankful for any hint into the right direction. Thank you in advance :)
