you can make your own custom jinja functions
#web-development
tepid saffron
tepid saffron
nah?
atleast
if you use flask for example
you can add python functions to jinja
and execute them within your template
steel tiger
yep its everything
no other tags
just that specific one
also do you be ok with me using sqlite in development with a small website 😉
tepid saffron
yeah why not ?
steel tiger
some other people get angwy
tepid saffron
idc what you use 😛
steel tiger
mm
tepid saffron
I mean, i use sqlite3 + sqlalchemy
steel tiger
im just going to use sqlite for small projects
tepid saffron
so i can make relations
steel tiger
yeah me aswell
(learning it atm, bit stuck on relationships with it but trying again tomorrow)
tepid saffron
they have it really nice documented
steel tiger
i like the simplicity of it but i know that sqlalchemy is better at more complicated things
tepid saffron
~~on the django part ~~
tepid saffron
I would choose flask over django just because you really install what you need and nothing else
steel tiger
yeah
can be tricky getting rolling kinda thing but once you have built a nice infastructure for everything, its nice to use
tepid saffron
it really is
steel tiger
also my pc has 64gb disk space (cheap netbook that i hacked linux onto) so i dont really have space for django with small projects
tepid saffron
maybe a idea to look into a docker container running a alpine postgress container if you are short on space
good replacement for sqlite3
steel tiger
i am making a cloud server
got the hard drive
got the server
only problem is locally-hosted cloud servers are way slower than something like dropbox for whatever reason
its weird
tepid saffron
maybe configuration settings
steel tiger
whats the point of backref in sqlalchemy when dealing with relationships?
i understand all of the basics but just not what the backref is used for
class Puppy(db.Model):
__tablename__ = 'puppies'
id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
name = db.Column(db.Text)
# one to many relationship. ([STRING: What your connecting], backref=[STRING: Name so the connected model can use???], lazy=[STRING: leave dynamic most of the time])
# Puppy --> Many Toys
toys = db.relationship('Toy', backref='puppy', lazy='dynamic')
# one to one
# Puppy --> One Owner
owner = db.relationship('Owner', backref='puppy', uselist=False) # leave lazy to default, dont use list but just 1 item
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name
def __repr__(self):
if self.owner: # if puppy has owner
return f'<name: {self.name}, owner: {self.owner.name}>'
else:
return f'<name: {self.name}, no owner>'
def report_toys(self):
print('Here are my toys:')
for toy in self.toys:
print(toy.item_name)
class Toy(db.Model):
__tablename__ = 'toys'
id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
item_name = db.Column(db.Text)
# connect toys to puppies. puppies is Puppy's __tablename__ and we are getting the id of it
puppy_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('puppies.id'))
def __init__(self, item_name, puppy_id): # when you make this, it always has to have a name and puppy that owns it
self.item_name = item_name
self.puppy_id = puppy_id
class Owner(db.Model):
__tablename__ = 'owners'
id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
name = db.Column(db.Text)
puppy_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('puppies.id')) # owner connected to puppy, as said above
def __init__(self, name, puppy_id):
self.name = name
self.puppy_id = puppy_id
nowhere is puppy used

Or if anyone else has any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
hallow raft
the flashed messages is not displaying correctly right?
primal sinew
No sorry it's not running the JS correctly as in it's not copying the test and displaying the confirmation alert.
hallow raft
I think it's because you called .click() as a method and it returns undefined
primal sinew
So I would need to attach a function to it? For example...
hallow raft
you want the code to invoke on click right?
primal sinew
Yes please.
hallow raft
you have to hook to the click event with copyBttn.addEventListener
primal sinew
copyBttn.addEventListener('click');
if (copyBttn.click()) {
copyText.select();
document.execCommand("copy");
alert("Copied your encrypted message to the clipboard!");
}
put the 2nd argument of .addEventListener as the function to invoke when it's clicked
primal sinew
if (copyBttn.click(), copyBttn.addEventListener) {
copyText.select();
document.execCommand("copy");
alert("Copied your encrypted message to the clipboard!");
}
Sorry.
if (copyBttn.click(copyBttn.addEventListener) {
copyText.select();
document.execCommand("copy");
alert("Copied your encrypted message to the clipboard!");
}
like
copyBttn.addEventListener("click", function(event) {
// the rest here
})
if (copyBttn.addEventListener("click", copyMessage())) {
copyText.select();
document.execCommand("copy");
alert("Copied your encrypted message to the clipboard!");
}
copyBttn.addEventListener("click", function(event) {
copyText.select();
document.execCommand("copy");
alert("Copied your encrypted message to the clipboard!");
})```Yeah sorry I was just reading up on it and noticed that is the correct way of doing it. Apologies. I will try this.
It's not accepting the request so I think it may be a problem with linking the static file.
No it's still not working.
coral ridge
@primal sinew What is not working?
primal sinew
It would appear the whole entire script at this point. Here is the JS code.
function copyMessage() {
var copyText = document.getElementById("encryptedMessage").innerHTML;
copyText.select();
document.execCommand("copy");
alert("Copied your encrypted message to the clipboard!");
}
document.getElementById("copyText").addEventListener("click", copyMessage);
Here is my template...
{% extends 'layout.html' %}
{% from 'bootstrap/form.html' import render_field %}

Where are you including the script?
primal sinew
I have tried in the main layout template file as well as the one above using url_for()
coral ridge
<script type="text/javascript" src="{{ url_for('static', filename='main.js') }}"></script>
primal sinew
Yes that is what I have included but still no joy.
coral ridge
Even the text/javascript part? Leaving it out will cause the script to not work
primal sinew
No even that as well.
Is there any faults with the JS code at all that's all I can think of?
coral ridge
I'm not a JS expert but you don't need document.getElementById("copyText").addEventListener("click", copyMessage);
You can just do
<button type="button" id="copyText" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg btn-block" onclick="copyMessage()">Copy message to clipboard!</button>
Also you can try if the function works by opening the dev console and calling the function there
primal sinew
OK leave with me and I will have another play. Really appreciate you taking the time to help though.
Yeah there are errors with the JS code. Thanks for the suggestion of the dev tools. This will help.
rough jasper
coral ridge
@primal sinew I think the thing is that it has to be an input field you are copying from
primal sinew
Yeah I have just thought of that. I will try this and give it a go. Leave with me.
Nope same thing. Still getting error of copyText.select is not a function
It looks as if there is an issue with javascript copyText.select();
Sorted it @coral ridge and @hallow raft . Was including an additional innerHTML tag that wasn't required. Thanks for your help.

hey, im trying to make to backend todo app in django rest framework and i want to know how can you move a json object into another model when there is a get request on a certain url. Please help
I have made the api to return a list of all the tasks and to add new tasks. Now i need help with how to move the tasks into another table of "Completed tasks"
alpine socket
no one?
brave mantle
Nobody's answered you because the correct answer is "that's not what you want"
You should have a single table for tasks and have a completed column
SQL databases are designed to work across large tables with lots of rows
rather than a bunch of smaller tables
In order to keep things optimised, you should avoid "moving" rows between tables
(realistically, that move is not a move, it's a deletion of the row in the first table and an insertion into the other one)

I am trying to decrypt an existing encrypted message. Basically the user will paste the encrypted message and private key into a form and it would show the decrypted output. Here is the code.
@app.route('/decrypted')
def decrypted():
# Registering forms
decrypt_form = DecryptMessage(request.form)
decrypt_form.validate_on_submit()
# Pulling data from form
m = decrypt_form.message_field.data
k = decrypt_form.key_field.data
# Converting private key to bytes
k_bytes = k.encode(encoding='UTF-8')
# Generate new key
base64_key = base64.b64encode(bytes.decode(k_bytes))
g = Fernet(base64_key)
# Decrypt message
decrypt_message = g.decrypt(m)
final_output = decrypt_message
return render_template('decrypted.html', final_output=final_output)
I get an error in debug mode stating TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str'
I assume this is something to do with assigning a new key?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance.
alpine socket
which line is the error?
primal sinew
I think it maybe the line python base64_key = base64.b64encode(bytes.decode(k_bytes))
Screenshot.
alpine socket
U dont need to use python bytes.decode(k_bytes)U use it like: python k_bytes.decode()the decode() function takes an argument encoding= but the default is UTF-8 so u dont need to pass that arguement
I thinks this should work @primal sinew
primal sinew
@alpine socket Amended code ```python
@app.route('/decrypted')
def decrypted():
# Registering forms
decrypt_form = DecryptMessage(request.form)
decrypt_form.validate_on_submit()
# Pulling data from form
m = decrypt_form.message_field.data
k = decrypt_form.key_field.data
# Converting private key to bytes
k_bytes = k.encode()
# Generate new key
base64_key = base64.urlsafe_b64encode(k_bytes.decode())
g = Fernet(base64_key)
# Decrypt message
decrypt_message = g.decrypt(m)
final_output = decrypt_message
return render_template('decrypted.html', final_output=final_output)
yes 👍
primal sinew
@alpine socket Sadly not. Still getting the same error. 😦
alpine socket
the urlsafe_b64encode() takes a bytes like object hence you do not need to decode the variablek_bytes
@primal sinew
primal sinew
@alpine socket ```python
@app.route('/decrypted')
def decrypted():
# Registering forms
decrypt_form = DecryptMessage(request.form)
decrypt_form.validate_on_submit()
# Pulling data from form
m = decrypt_form.message_field.data
k = decrypt_form.key_field.data
# Converting private key to bytes
k_bytes = k.encode()
# Generate new key
base64_key = base64.urlsafe_b64encode(k_bytes)
g = Fernet(base64_key)
# Decrypt message
decrypt_message = g.decrypt(m)
final_output = decrypt_message
return render_template('decrypted.html', final_output=final_output)
yes...hopefully 🤞
primal sinew
Now I am getting error message ValueError: Fernet key must be 32 url-safe base64-encoded bytes.
primal sinew
@alpine socket No sorry. Still not working. I have even tried ```python
base64_key = base64.urlsafe_b64encode(k_bytes[:32])
I appreciate your help by the way. 😃
alpine socket
base64.urlsafe_b64encode() should work...but i dunno
no problem 😸
the value eroor is at which line?
primal sinew
Line 37 which is this ```python
base64_key = base64.urlsafe_b64encode(k_bytes)
I have just tried this in all in IDLE and it looks OK to me. 😦
primal sinew
OK I am progressing with this now. Here is the updated code: ```python
@app.route('/decrypted')
def decrypted():
# Registering forms
decrypt_form = DecryptMessage(request.form)
decrypt_form.validate_on_submit()
# Pulling data from form
m = decrypt_form.message_field.data.encode()
k = decrypt_form.key_field.data
# Converting private key to bytes
k_bytes = k.encode()
# Generate new key
base64_key = base64.urlsafe_b64encode(k_bytes [:32])
g = Fernet(base64_key)
# Decrypt message
decrypt_message = g.decrypt(m.decode())
final_output = decrypt_message
return render_template('decrypted.html', final_output=final_output)
I think the problem now is passing an already encrypted message to the decrypt function as I now get the error message: TypeError: token must be bytes.
primal sinew
So I have since managed to pass the encryption key as bytes using the following code: ```python
@app.route('/decrypted')
def decrypted():
# Registering forms
decrypt_form = DecryptMessage(request.form)
decrypt_form.validate_on_submit()
# Pulling data from form
m = decrypt_form.message_field.data
k = decrypt_form.key_field.data
# Converting private key to bytes
k_bytes = k.encode()
# Generate new key
base64_key = base64.urlsafe_b64encode(k_bytes [:32])
g = Fernet(base64_key.decode(k))
# Decrypt message
decrypt_message = g.decrypt(m)
final_output = bytes.decode(decrypt_message)
return render_template('decrypted.html', final_output=final_output)
But I now get the error message: LookupError: unknown encoding: XQ5wNimxc3YdO3set1cpbjZq1AT3waC9m1wGV05wB3Y=
alpine socket
final_output = decrypt_message.decode()
and enter the encoding as a argument encoding="...'
primal sinew
@alpine socket Amended code: ```python
@app.route('/decrypted')
def decrypted():
# Registering forms
decrypt_form = DecryptMessage(request.form)
decrypt_form.validate_on_submit()
# Pulling data from form
m = decrypt_form.message_field.data
k = decrypt_form.key_field.data
# Converting private key to bytes
k_bytes = k.encode()
# Generate new key
base64_key = base64.urlsafe_b64encode(k_bytes [:32])
g = Fernet(base64_key.decode(k))
# Decrypt message
decrypt_message = g.decrypt(m)
final_output = decrypt_message.decode(encoding='ASCII')
return render_template('decrypted.html', final_output=final_output)
working? @primal sinew
primal sinew
Nope still the same error message sorry @alpine socket
Do I need to specify the encryption method?
alpine socket
i think the error might be in the line
g = Fernet(base64_key.decode(k))
primal sinew
Yes I think you're right.
alpine socket
because i think the decode func does not any arguments
primal sinew
Removed the argument and now have TypeError: argument should be a bytes-like object or ASCII string, not 'builtin_function_or_method'
primal sinew
It's a generated key that has been converted to a string. Basically I want someone to encrypt a message and send on details and be able to decrypt.
So the user would input the encrypted message and the private key and it would output the message in plain text.
If that makes sense!

Currently this takes forever to run, is there a better way to handle user filtering? Python 3.7, Django 2.1.1
Just need to be pointed in the right direction. 😄 Thanks!

does django automatically combine filters like that?
you might be running a lot of nested subqueries, which your db engine might or might not be able to optimize
however you need to say:
- what database engine
- what part is slow (the db query, or something else)
- how big is the table
- how big is the result set
- do you have any indices on the table
- what is the cardinality of said indices
- what is your definition of "slow"

Sorry to but in but is there any way to make <pre></pre> mobile responsive? My page just hides it being overflown on the x axis.
surreal thicket
what do you mean hides?
surreal thicket
<code>
i think should fix it
instead of <pre>
ah wait dont use code outside pre
hang on
cinder path
yea that breaks the spaces
cinder path
problem with code right
surreal thicket
and you cant scroll that horizontally?
cinder path
is I have a css that gives it a coloured background
surreal thicket
i think you just dont get a scroll bar on mobile (i dont on iOS)
cinder path
so it is in lines
surreal thicket
you should still be able to scroll that horizontally
cinder path
I skipped that via a div with a class
<div class="codeblock">
<pre>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" dir="ltr">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Profile</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Hello this is my profile page!</p>
</body>
</html></pre>
</div>
.codeblock {
background-color: rgba(45, 202, 255, .2);
border-radius: 0.25rem;
margin: 1em 0 1em 0;
padding: 1em;
}
cinder path
shall I add that to the div since I want the rest of my content to fit onto the page
cinder path
that doesn't work
so its working on mobile view which is nice to know
but stops at 374px
in browser
cinder path
Sorted!

@surreal thicket I have kind of shifted gears since i asked this question earlier. The table in question is 41k rows, and im using sqlite. I have been preparing to migrate to MySQL - so now i am looking at a way to move the data .
surreal thicket
that is harder. personally, i would load the sqlite data into pandas and write into mysql
41k rows is not that big
outer marsh
stellar that gives me a direction! thank you!
This wont probably fix my filtering issue - but the migration needs to happen so better now than later.
surreal thicket
honestly that data set is small enough you can just load it in memory and do filtering in pandas 😄

Hello,
I am building an rest app with flask using connexion and swagger.
I needed a custom sql wrapper for postgres so I tried attempting a extension for that based on example code on flask ext dev, but the passing app to init_app() results in not initializing the app.
Has anyone attempted anything like this?

Morning people. Still having issues with this. I have tested this in a python terminal and everything works OK so not sure if I am missing something? Here is the code: ```python
@app.route('/decrypted')
def decrypted():
# Registering forms
decrypt_form = DecryptMessage(request.form)
decrypt_form.validate_on_submit()
# Pulling data from form
m = decrypt_form.message_field.data
k = decrypt_form.key_field.data
# Converting data to bytes
m_bytes = m.encode(encoding='utf-8')
k_bytes = k.encode(encoding='utf-8')
# Generate new key
base64_key = base64.urlsafe_b64encode(k_bytes [:32])
g = Fernet(base64_key)
# Decrypt message
decrypt_message = g.decrypt(m_bytes)
final_output = decrypt_message.decode()
return render_template('decrypted.html', final_output=final_output)
I get the following error message cryptography.fernet.InvalidToken
primal sinew
Anyone?
primal sinew
No I have been trying the majority of last night and this morning. Looked through countless Stack and Reddit posts and still no joy.
I do believe I have tried removing the 32 previously and still had the same issue.
Removing that part of the code produces this error. ValueError: Fernet key must be 32 url-safe base64-encoded bytes.
There is obviously an issue turning the key from string format into bytes so that it can be used to decrypt the message.

Hey all, apparently my google is failing me. In Django, if I want to .get an object where a m2m contains all elements exactly, how does that work?
MyModel.objects.get(some_m2m=?)
Is it a list of ids? List of objects? It keeps saying like it should be a an int or something
Full context
class Team(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(default='Random Team', max_length=300)
team_avatar = models.URLField()
players = models.ManyToManyField('Player', unique=True)
class Roster(models.Model):
match = models.ForeignKey('Match', on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='rosters')
player = models.ForeignKey('Player', on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='rosters')
team_number = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True)
slot_number = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True)
class Meta:
unique_together = ('match', 'team_number', 'slot_number')
def __str__(self):
return f"{self.player.display_name}: Team: {self.team_number} Slot: {self.slot_number}"
class Match(models.Model):
created = models.DateTimeField(auto_created=True, auto_now_add=True)
updated = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True)
status = models.CharField(choices=STATUS_CHOICES, max_length=300, default='in progress')
players = models.ManyToManyField(Player, through='Roster', related_name='matches')
def __str__(self):
return f"Match on {self.created}"
def get_team(self, team_number: int) -> Optional[Team]:
# How best to do this? Code throws error.
player_ids = [r.player.id for r in Roster.objects.filter(team_number=team_number)]
return Team.objects.get(players=player_ids)
Thoughts behind the setup to have Match have players as m2m be so I can associate teams and slot position of player. Really in perfect world would just be a m2m on Team but I don't know how I would record slot_ids per match unless I make that its own m2m.... which I guess is possible?

@kindred gate I dont use blueprints, but I do use flask at work every day.
When you use blueprints, do you initialize a flask/quart app above the blueprint?
like if I wanted to enable host matching, instead of app = Flask(__name__) id have to do app = Flask(__name__, host_matching=True)
midnight kernel
watcha got?

ValueError: static_host must be set if there is a static folder and host_matching is enabled
i assume static_host is another kwarg that i need when initing the app
but what should it be?

hmm
what do you use in your static folder?
i use flask to build REST apis so the templates and static folder i have little experience in

So my django backend successfully manage to handle 170k+ real time users, I almost can't believe django can handle it.
cerulean mauve
that's awesome @sinful pulsar . I'm jut learning Django, great to see that it scales so effectively
sinful pulsar
@cerulean mauve good luck!
One of the biggest thing to consider when deploying django app is to make sure to choose your Gunicorn workers design wisely. Because it will also affect how you handle db connections.
It doesn't give me any problem until I start receiving 30k+ real time users
I am still learning about this though
cerulean mauve
My current objective is to create a functioning page, so the challenges that will come with scaling are a bit further down the line! ha ha. But it's definetly good to know. I'm excited about the possibilities I'm seeing opening up as I learn.

Hey, I got a responsive d3 graph that uses element.clientWidthand element.clientHeight for resizing. However, the clientHeightreturns 0 unless I have this CSS in place:
.graph {
position: absolute;
left: 0px;
right: 0px;
top: 0px;
bottom: 0px;
margin: 0px;
}
This works fine but if I want to add something else to the page, like a dropdown menu, it overlaps with the graph due to that CSS
Any ideas for a fix?

@unkempt wharf No, as I have this.

from resources.Messages import CountMessages
from resources.Messages import CountMessagesByChannel
from resources.Profiles import ProfilesResource
from resources.Users import UsersResource
api_bp = Blueprint('api', __name__)
api = Api(api_bp)
# Routes
api.add_resource(Hello, '/Hello')
api.add_resource(MessageResource, '/Messages')
api.add_resource(ProfilesResource, '/Profiles')
api.add_resource(CountMessages, '/UserMessageCount')
api.add_resource(CountMessagesByChannel, '/UserMessageCountByChannels')
api.add_resource(UsersResource, '/Users')
Also there is already a traceback, which says: TypeError: Object of type datetime is not JSON serializable.
So how do I serialize it?

def interphore_early():
return app.send_static_file(

)
This is getting annoying
it clearly exists but it says it doesn't
kindred gate
What's ur entire code?
nimble crow
big
kindred gate
Could be due to the fact that you haven't restarted the python file?
nimble crow
It restarts when I save it.
kindred gate
Do all other parts of your site work?
nimble crow
Yup
specifically these two don't work
@app.route("/interphore/dev/code_here")
def interphore_dev():
return app.send_static_file(
"/games/latest/interphore/dev/code_here/interphore_dev_play.html"
)
@app.route("/interphore/early/code_here")
def interphore_early():
return app.send_static_file(
"/games/latest/interphore/early/code_here/interphore_early_play.html"
)
And if it's down to send_static_file, then I don't know how

Are those your only two routes with send_static_file

Maybe test it to return "hi" and see if the routing's the issue?

How do I load a new page on Flask

@kindred gate
kindred gate
So it's your static file
kindred gate
Is the file in your static folder?
kindred gate
So the file is in static/games/latest...?
kindred gate
The only thing I can think of is that it can't find the file
nimble crow
In which case jinja would cause an exception
nimble crow
:/
quaint ledge
did you add https::/ or whatever it is to the front?
kindred gate
It's localhost that's unlikely
nimble crow
kindred gate
The only thing I can think of is that the file directory is wrong
quaint ledge
sorry
kindred gate
If you added the file after the code started running that could cause a problem
You might wanna restart the python file and see if that does anything
kindred gate
The app does but I don't think it grabs any new static files
kindred gate
I'm sorry I have no idea
The only thing I can say is double check to ensure your directory is right
nimble crow
Which it is
quaint ledge
download might be corrupted
i had to delete all my d.py files and reinstall it before it started working right
nimble crow
(Intentionally censoring some of the code)
Also it works for everything else
Just the one fucking time i need to send_static_file
it fucking breaks
kindred gate
All other static files work, right?
nimble crow
Yes
Ant they all template
These ones
I cannot template
Which is why I am working with them differently
If there is any other way of loading static html from /static
I'd love to hear it
because this shit doesn't fucking work
kindred gate
flask.send_from_directory exists
quaint ledge
yo ignore me if u want but i think you might be getting kind of heated, you should try taking a break to collect yourself so you can focus on it later.
kindred gate
Try your full directory
nimble crow
At least it gave a fucking readable error this time
not that it's anything good
I just forgot /static
...
I fucking copied the url
exactly
and it pulls this shit
nimble crow
C:\Users\Paws\Desktop\paraphore
so yes
it very much is
Never mind, the person I was making this for decided to fucking call it off
kindred gate
oof

I made a Dungeon Generator in python that takes some input from the user (a seed, size, etc) and returns an image. I would like to make a single page website that would run the script but have no idea how to go about doing that. Any pointers on picking a framework or useful tutorials on how to set it up?
Some people recommended Django but I'm overwhelmed just looking at it, no idea where to start or what to do to make this happen.
Thanks!

isn't flask recommended for beginners? there's always this flask tutorial: https://blog.miguelgrinberg.com/post/the-flask-mega-tutorial-part-i-hello-world
ivory crest
Flask and Django are both fine for beginners in my opinion, it's just that Django looks more intimidating because it throws everything at you at once whereas Flask you have to assemble yourself so you get a feel for it as you go but if you just start with the Django beginner tutorial it breaks it down into smaller more manageable pieces to learn, just as the flask mega tutorial does.

Umm, switch to a better database backend.
I don't even know how sqlite likes that big of a database.

So the data I need is already done inside a database. I’m just downloading it and then updating it monthly with the new data, the website is going to query the data
I don’t think I could move the data to new database easily anyways
hollow flower
So do you plan on hosting the site with the large database in the cloud?
hollow flower
from flask import request
from flask_restful import Resource
from models import db, Discord_Users

.filter(Discord_Users.user_id == value) \
.one()
return {'status': 'success', 'data': query}, 200
else:
return {'status': 'failed', 'message': 'This is not how it works'}, 400
How do I fix the error as it says: TypeError: Object of type datetime is not JSON serializable?
kindred gate
Does your query have a datetime in it?
hollow flower
Yes.
kindred gate
That's probably why
hollow flower
Discord_Users.permission_granted has a datetime in it.
And I want to output that datetime too, but in json.
kindred gate
You might need to pass through your query and turn that datetime into a string
You can't output a datetime and a lot of other models via JSON
hollow flower
Hmm, then how would I get the same kind of json layout when using that {'status': 'success', 'data': query}, 200 if I were to use jsonify?
kindred gate
Is query a dictionary right?

Can someone help me connect ReactJS to Django?
sweet wharf
especially nodeJS problems
but i think i will try to use rest_framework even though i dont understand it yet
tardy pasture
I'd definitely recommend separating things, like so: #004990
Er
One sec
Like that.
DRF is not too bad to get into. The quickstart guide isn't bad: https://www.django-rest-framework.org/tutorial/quickstart/
And there are some other okay resources around (https://medium.com/backticks-tildes/lets-build-an-api-with-django-rest-framework-32fcf40231e5)
There's two schools of thoughts on getting started - you could start with React and then make a dummy API for mocking data, and then model your API on the dummy API
Or you can make the API first.
How much experience do you have with consuming / using APIs?

I want it like (text) ( then enter box) but it does the opposite
tag me if u respond so I know someone answered plz
opal leaf
what html are you using and what css do you have? why its happening can vary wildly because of that stuff @native tide
might want to use the web browsers inspector to see what css and such is impacting your components
native tide
opal leaf
so its likely due to whatever css you have
opal leaf
is that all of your css or are you using something like bootstrap that adds a ton of defaults?
sometimes they are set up in a way that requires you to use a specific tag for input labels
native tide
that isnt all that is all that would be effecting the container here ill send a pic of all
opal leaf
id prefer it in text form tbh so i can copy paste and test stuff
kind steppe
@native tide sorry about that
you triggered our newlines rule
if you could please upload your CSS to https://paste.pydis.com/
native tide
srry my b ok
I just dont see anything that would make it flip out like that on my page.
opal leaf
with what you provided so far it puts the text first :
native tide
oooooo I didnt add a break after one of them and I thought it was puttting it first
my apology
thank u tho
opal leaf
haha no worries
steel tiger
i always need to add css .container { padding-top: 15px; }
when dealing with bootswatch because text gets too close to navbar for comfort
hot robin
is there way to get a context variable with something like {{ user + i }} where i is a variable in a for loop
and user is part of the context
opal leaf
some web frameworks have a built in way to manage a 'list' of items in a form that all have the same name
hot robin
oops probably should have managed its django
anything more specific to django like that or not sure? ive been looking around
hot robin
alright. ill do some digging in the docs
opal leaf
looks like people are suggesting that you instead use a dict or list
rather than naming them all similar stuff
and then the templates have a built in looping system that you can use
hot robin
ty
I was looking at a dict as the first thing but i didnt know thatd work
but ill take a look
that actually might be exactly what im looking for. thanks!
opal leaf
:>
hot robin
yeah it was dot notation in a template but i thought of the normal way with like key[value]
so that clears a lot up lol

what do I set in uwsgi config as callable?
cat app/main/init.py:
from flask import Flask
from flask_sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemy
from flask_marshmallow import Marshmallow
from flask_bcrypt import Bcrypt
from .config import config_by_name
db = SQLAlchemy()
ma = Marshmallow()
flask_bcrypt = Bcrypt()
def create_app(config_name):
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config.from_object(config_by_name[config_name])
db.init_app(app)
flask_bcrypt.init_app(app)
return app
That's the one that should be the callable right?
brave mantle
That's not callable
Basically uwsgi wants you to give it a module that you can run that will end up with a WSGI app object at module level
your create_app isn't being run with the result stored in that module - so it's not correct
you could use eg ```py
if name == "main":
app = create_app(...)
then refer to your app.__init__:app
I think a lot of projects use an app.py or __main__.py for this though - in which case you'd have either app.app:app (lol) or just app:app respectively
brave mantle
@hollow flower
meager anchor
i go the django route and create an extra wsgi.py file where i just instantiate the app
brave mantle
Ah, yeah, I forgot about that, that's a fairly common approach too
steel tiger
does django use pure jinja for templating?
brave mantle
It uses the django templating language
jinja is kinda inspired by it, so it looks similar, but it's not the same
steel tiger
i thought django came after jinja?
steel tiger
huh
well my navbar if statement works fine across django and flask so im happy enough with that
brave mantle
You should avoid trying to do that with your templates, really
Each templating system has its own quirks, and you need to make use of them to get the most out of them
steel tiger
how do you make it highlight then
brave mantle
in what?
steel tiger
navbars
brave mantle
with a CSS class?
brave mantle
I don't understand your question
brave mantle
okay, but don't rely on that
if you have a flask app and a django app then they should have their own templates :P
steel tiger
yeah its only for highlighting the navbar things
brave mantle
No, you're missing my point
If that changes between versions of either flask or django then it'll break
steel tiger
yeah
brave mantle
You need to be maintaining the templates separately
steel tiger
i done it once on django and ported to flask
brave mantle
Also, django and flask don't use the same template inheritance stuff
steel tiger
thats the bit i changed
brave mantle
You shouldn't be copy-pasting your navbar code into each template, so you need to think about that as well
anyway, you get my point
hollow flower
@meager anchor I don't even know what is the django route as haven't used it.

I'm running to an issue where it seems like django runs what's inside the if clause even though the condition is not met inside the template
Anyone knows if this is just the case, like
Everything inside the template renders even if it is not meant to be end up in the finale html that is being served
@Helpers damn, damn, damn

You're not supposed to be able to ping helpers; people will help when they think they can and/or have time
In your case, it would probably help to have code and an example of your data
Without that, it's pretty difficult to help

how can I create a GET request only using sys and socket?
I'll get API key and parameters as program arguments
stone pelican
Over HTTP or HTTPS?
hallow wave
HTTP
stone pelican
Alright, HTTPS would be almost impossible without another module. How do you need to send the API key?
hallow wave
what do you mean?
stone pelican
Is it in some kind of json, a param, authorization header?
hallow wave
I'm making a script which creates a socket and connects to openweathermap, then as program argument I get an API key and city's name
then it'll print the info to console
well, I assume it's an auth header
stone pelican
Can I ask why you didn't use requests or urllib?
hallow wave
I can't
http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?q=London,uk&APPID=b498767252de12f92504d2cca9c3fdc1
should look sth like this
stone pelican
You can't, for like a challenge?
hallow wave
yes
stone pelican
I think sending data like "GET http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?q=London,uk&APPID=b498767252de12f92504d2cca9c3fdc1\r\n" should suffice
hallow wave
though I have to admit that networking is not something I know well
stone pelican
Do you know how to create sockets?
hallow wave
I've already googled how to create socket and connect to API
I've done that, but now I'm stuck here
hallow wave
let me get sth straight: http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?q=London,uk&APPID=b498767252de12f92504d2cca9c3fdc1\r\n is the request itself?
stone pelican
Wait, I'm so wrong lol, one sec
hallow wave
def create_socket():
try:
mySocket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
except socket.error:
print("Failed to create socket. Exiting...")
sys.exit()
print("Socket created!")
return mySocket
def connect_to_api(mySocket, ip_address):
try:
mySocket.connect((ip_address, port))
except socket.error:
print("Failed to connect to API. Exiting...")
sys.exit()
print("Succesfully connected to API!")
return
I started with python like 2 days ago
this is sth I've put together from a bunch of examples
stone pelican
First, you'll need to get the site's ip,so put the website domain (without http) into socket.getaddrbyhost
stone pelican
Oh, maybe it does it automatically. Once, you connect like with ("api.openweathermap.org", 80) (port 80 is always used for http.
hallow wave
yes, I've read that somewhere and use it
quiet solstice
So 2 things.
You don't need a socket connection, it's done with regular http requests
And you should never post your api key anywhere
stone pelican
I think what you actually want to send is GET /data/2.5/weather?q=London,uk&APPID=b498767252de12f92504d2cca9c3fdc1\r\n
hallow wave
it's a non-functional key
dw
what does the \r\n mean at the end of request?
newline?
stone pelican
It's to signify a new line, yeah
quiet solstice
requests is a great library for what you are trying to do
stone pelican
Not 100% sure however I'm fairly certain HTTP requires a new line at the end
Yeah, it worked. Would you to see the code?
hallow wave
sure
stone pelican
stone pelican
You can only send bytes into a socket. String that start with b aren't strings, but bytes
So, yeah
stone pelican
This is different if you're using python2 though, then you only need to send strings
hallow wave
i use 2.7.15
stone pelican
Ok, then don't use b, otherwise I think it's the same
hallow wave
I see, thank you!
hallow wave
I got a bit further (thanks to you), but now I'm getting 400
any ideas where the mistake could be?
my_api_key stands for my personal key, only the printout is changed
at the end of request is \r\n
mby the real problem is specific to the page's API?
well
the problem was that I didn't put GET in front of the request
end me

It wasn't solved there, but could anyone possibly help me with this?
sturdy sapphire
I ran the tutorial but for me it stops at a Middleware error
frigid egret
I did read some of those suggestions as well, got me confused at first.
Actually this case has been addressed in the tutorial.
So it's not the source of the problem.
sturdy sapphire
so.. lets unpack what you have done so far
you pip installed everything and then you cloned the git repo? right?
@frigid egret
frigid egret
Yes
sturdy sapphire
then what did you do then?
sturdy sapphire
then you ran the migration and then ran the server?
frigid egret
And after making sure it works fine, went straight for /admin
Yes, I did run migrations as well
sturdy sapphire
uploading worked?
frigid egret
Since I still don't know when not to use it, I use it more often than I should XD
Yes, uploading on both /polls and /polls/import works fine.
frigid egret
sturdy sapphire
frigid egret
Can you send me your project so I can try and run it?
sturdy sapphire
how do you start the server? from where
frigid egret
terminal
sturdy sapphire
you liked a folder structure earlier, is that something you use?
frigid egret
py manage.py runserver
sturdy sapphire
from django-excel ?
frigid egret
Uh, the whole file? It's quite long for direct text.
Can't upload it as a file. I guess role restrictions.
sturdy sapphire
no from instaslled_apps to root_URL
frigid egret
wait, hold on
Wrong one

'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',

'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware'
)
ROOT_URLCONF = 'mysite.urls'```ahh.. I was about to say so
There was a change with MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES some time ago, so when I thought you where using an older version I added this
Im sure you just need to rename it to MIDDLEWARE
you might have to run the migration again
so change that and run try to access the admin page
@frigid egret
frigid egret
trying rn
Yay, it works!
Thank you!
Is it because I was using a different version?
sturdy sapphire
yes, version conflict with the tutorial
it was as I suspected from the beginning, but I have limited experience with django so I had to "figure" the solution out myself.
glad it works for you @frigid egret

i have a .ini file that runs a flask website that streams videofile via opencv. It runs perfectly when I use uwsgi app.ini. Then I deploy it in my emperor.uwsgi.service. The static websites are fine, but when I go to the streaming page, All the text/headers are in position, but the "video" won't stream/show. The page is saying waiting for 192.168.1.38.... What settings should I add to my emperor so that it will also auto refresh the page, because the streaming part of flask is just a Response that changes the image every second.
brave mantle
I'm kind of wondering why you're using emperor
when uwsgi will do workers for you
unless you're going with like a big distributed webapp
The best hint to this may actually be in your browser's console
warm dust
Its actually not a big problem, I just want to use it in systemd enable emperor.uwsgi.service so that uwsgi will autoplay everytime I turn on my Pi. Is harakiri not related to my problem?
brave mantle
I've actually not used emperor, that's why I ask
if you put your uwsgi config in uh.. I think it's /etc/uwsgi/
I think you can use the uwsgi systemd service
eg if your config is named app then you just enable uwsgi@app.service
but either way, emperor should work fine, assuming it and its vassals are all configured correctly
as well as nginx or whatever webserver you're proxying with

I need to make a choice for some "quick and dirty" prototyping I just wanted to see what the general coconscious is on bottle vs flask. I have not really worked extensively with either. When I say prototyping I mean there doesn't need to be auth or anything as it is all going to run local and is for demonstration purposes only
brave mantle
Bottle vs Flask: They both have a very similar API. Bottle's only advantage is that it's a single file that you can include alongside your app, whereas flask really needs to be installed with pip.
If you don't care about that, use flask.

What's a way to validate emails other than using regex? I've tried validate_email but it doesn't for all emails.
polar wasp
validating email is overrated
just send an email
the mailer won't accept it if it's invalid
(what problems are you running into with validate_email)
fossil lotus
I've got a school email that ends with .org.uk and it returns None. Got me thinking what other emails would not be valid
And sending an email kinda like saying hey click this to validate your account ?
opal leaf
yep
its the only real way to be sure. you can check for an @ symbol if you really want but trying to regex that its valid or anything is just a waste of time and will annoy people with a weird email address
if they dont click it after a certain amount of time just delete their account
polar wasp
...honestly i looked at the code to validate_email and it looks pretty rigorous
opal leaf
well i think most of the issue is trying to use regex specifically, but again it doesnt really matter since what you really want to know is if that email can be used to contact and identify that specific user
polar wasp
>>> validate_email.validate_email('foo+bar@example.org.uk')
True```also what do you mean it returns None? validate_email returns True or False, not None
opal leaf
looks like validate email can check if the email servers dns entries exist which is pretty cool
polar wasp
@fossil lotus
opal leaf
or if the mail server is actually there AND it accepts the email, thats interesting
so it does have an alternative to actually sending the email. but it wouldnt surprise me if its basically 99% of sending an email
of course without sending it and making the user click it you dont really know whos email address it is still
fossil lotus
Ahh sorry didn't clarify
polar wasp
for most purposes you'd use an email for you'd want to confirm that the user who typed it in actually owns the address, which is where sending an email comes in
opal leaf
yeah imo there is no reason to even take the users email if you dont intend to send something to it
just use a username instead
fossil lotus
try validate_email.validate_email('foo+bar@example.org.uk',verify=True) You will need Py3dns
and I'm using emails in case they forgot their password

If they need a password you want an email

polar wasp
validate_email.validate_email('foo+bar@example.org.uk',verify=True)```makes sense, but i would still send them an email to make sure it works
validate_email gets you most of the way though
fossil lotus
Yeah that's true I guess I can say if you entered a wrong email an admin account can reset / change it ?
opal leaf
hmm if its their login name too
then i would just delete the account tbh and let them recreate it, since odds are they wont be able to remember the login if they typo the email
you might have an initial login just via cookies that they can use to try to save the account
fossil lotus
Oh no they login with a username
opal leaf
eg like your email hasnt been verified so please fix that in a big red box at the top of pages
ah
yeah then just ask them to verify/fix the email
polar wasp
@fossil lotus turn debug on
fossil lotus
debug on where?
polar wasp
>>> logging.basicConfig()
>>> validate_email.validate_email('foo+bar@example.org.uk',verify=True, debug=True)
i get DEBUG:validate_email:ServerError or socket.error exception raised (timed out).
maybe py3dns is broken?
fossil lotus
hmm I think I'll just make it to admin can manually reset the email account.
polar wasp
oh wait duh
example.org.uk probably isn't accepting connections
you can still turn verify off and use it to validate the syntax of emails, i'm thinking the check_mx/verify stuff maybe isn't very good
fossil lotus
Yeah I wanted to verify the emails initially but moving away from that and just verifying syntax
opal leaf
@fossil lotus a general question for you, what will you do to verify that the user is the right person?
eg lets say i am a bad guy and see that a new user was created, so you prob have not yet sent them an email.
what stops me from asking the admin to reset my password and claiming i typoed the email address?
its a consideration if its a big / serious site
but not a big deal on a private site where you dont expect a lot of traffic
fossil lotus
Ughh it's for a school project so don't need to worry about that
opal leaf
haha
yeah im not sure how you would solve this problem easily if you want to skip verifying the email
which makes sense for your school project
fossil lotus
Well being honest all I had to do was make a website that showcases what computing and IT courses my school offers but wanted to add some functionality to the website which will help the teachers during an open day.
opal leaf
but in general, i guess you would have to ask them for something only the account owner would know.
like on steam they can ask what games you had i guess
fossil lotus
Rn I'm thinking the student will sit at a computer during the open day make an account with the help of a teacher and do what they want.
Yeah I guess so could get a timestamp i.e when a student signs in for the open day and get them to store it or something like that.

Umm, ideas?
opal leaf
the error message seems to indicate that you passed an object of type MethodViewType someplace you were not supposed to in the function ApiUserRegistration.post
also both pastebins have the same code in them
its possible the way you are mapping apiuserregistration to your view is wrong but i cant see any other code
hollow flower
I see. I actually did find the error. I was using a class when I was ment to be defining a function rather.
fossil lotus
I know I've been asking a lot of questions lately but bear with me. How do I make it so that an admin can type a username click submit button and it comes up with the necessary sqlite db information under the button.
Also is it possible without passing username like this /foo?username=bar ?
fossil lotus
Nvm managed to do it ^^.

flask_jwt_extended.exceptions.NoAuthorizationError: Missing Authorization Header
What would be the best way to catch that error?

Does anyone here know any good resources for django?
