title=post_opens.title

What does your class form look like?

drifting bison May 14, 2020, 5:03 PM

#

What you can do is create a list of title, content, author and send it in render_templates. Then access the list with index in html

fickle fox May 14, 2020, 5:04 PM

#

@nimble star you mean thing where i create posts?

#

    <h2>Create New Blog Post:</h2>
    <form action='/posts' method='POST'>
        Title: <input type='text' name='title' id='title'>
        <br>
        Author: <input type='text' name='author' id='author'>
        <br>
        Post: <input type='text' name='content' id='content'>
        <br>
        <input type='submit' value='Post'>
    </form>
    <hr>```

#

or db?

#

class BlogPost(db.Model):
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    title = db.Column(db.String(72), nullable=False)
    content = db.Column(db.Text, nullable=False)
    author = db.Column(db.String(20), nullable=False, default='N/A')
    date_posted = db.Column(
        db.DateTime, nullable=False, default=datetime.utcnow)

#

@drifting bison uh i am trying to get it from database

#

if someone knows the answer please ping me

nimble star May 14, 2020, 5:16 PM

#

@fickle fox I'm not sure about this, since I don't handle my forms this way on flask, but it seems strange that your action attribute points to /posts when your route is /posts/post/<id>

#

I think you don't get any data because the data from your form is not sent to the correct route

fickle fox May 14, 2020, 5:17 PM

#

oh its for creating in something called posts, this one is post

#

again if someone knows what th eprob ping me

#

oh i dont have log in system yet

#

author is input field where they type name

Hey @knotty seal!

It looks like you tried to attach file type(s) that we do not allow (.webm). We currently allow the following file types: .3gp, .3g2, .avi, .bmp, .gif, .h264, .jpg, .jpeg, .m4v, .mkv, .mov, .mp4, .mpeg, .mpg, .png, .tiff, .wmv, .svg, .psd, .ai, .aep, .xcf, .mp3, .wav, .ogg.

Feel free to ask in #community-meta if you think this is a mistake.

Hoping this is the right spot, but i've got a ruby mechanize script i'm converting that will let me log into a webpage and do some automation from there. When i use postman and 'get' the url, i see everything. When i try it by doing

page = requests.get(url)

#

page.content is just giving me a py/64

#

i'm pretty sure that's part of the request (image in the header or something?), but it seems to be all it's getting back. Is there some way to skip that and just get the body or am I doing something wrong. I've been digging through docs for awhile now and it all seems to say it shoudl be working, and I can do their examples fine

#

to add, the only thing i've seen that might make sense is that i may need to use selenium, but i'm trying to avoid that as the original ruby script doesn't seem to be actually using a browser(i'm unsure as i don't really know ruby) and in my testing with it i found i was having to add a ton of conditional code to detect when the page actually loaded

Have any of you used vuejs with flask? This is the code i have:



<html lang="en"><head>
</head>
<body>
<div id="app"><p>{{ message  }}</p></div>

    <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/vue/2.5.13/vue.js"></script>

<script>
var vue = new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  data: {
    message: 'Hello Vue.js!'
  }
})
</script>

</body></html>

but its not doing anything

#

but if i open the html file in a browser without flask it works fine

tired root May 14, 2020, 7:26 PM

#

I've tried that once, didn't work. Glad I am not alone.

#

Thought I am too stupid to try Vue

#

Guess the better way here is to have two vhosts

native tide May 14, 2020, 7:26 PM

#

ugh

tired root May 14, 2020, 7:26 PM

#

one for vue, one for flask rest

native tide May 14, 2020, 7:26 PM

#

i dont really want to do that

#

i have another website using vuejs i guess i can just add it to that one

tired root May 14, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

on your pc, you can do flask with werkzeug and the static html with py -m http.server for a quick setup

#

But I really don't get why this does not work

#

Werkzeug should serve the html as it is if there is no jinja blocks in it

#

with render_template

native tide May 14, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

alright, ill look into that. How can i read all the html data as a string and then return that? because it looks like returning html data without render_template works for other stuff

tired root May 14, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

don't mix templating and vue

#

if you use flask with vue, output json, not html

#

that is the whole point of vue

#

having an independent frontend and a rest backend

native tide May 14, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

oh ok

#

i guess that makes sense

#

i was just trying to avoid having to have 2 ports open

tired root May 14, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

nvm that was stupid 😄

#

but you can solve it with a subdomain

#

so it was not stupid

#

sometimes my brain is a mess

#

rest.example.com and example.com, only 443 open

native tide May 14, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

yeah i could do that

#

kind of a bummner tho

tired root May 14, 2020, 7:32 PM

#

how so?

native tide May 14, 2020, 7:33 PM

#

i really like vuejs, and i want to learn more python which is why i chose to do it all in flask, i already have a restapi in nodejs running and other vuejs website, so it would kinda be better to incorperate it all in that

tired root May 14, 2020, 7:33 PM

#

then write your rest in flask

#

nothing wrong with it

#

ok, i really don't want to use selenium to connect to a website and automate it as it seems to be insanely slow since it's actually loading a browser, even headless. I know somehow someone used ruby + mechanize to do it, but i can't seem to replicate this at all as everytime i hit the site with anything else i just get garbage back

native tide May 14, 2020, 9:26 PM

is there a way to trigger alert to someone else? like... if i ban someone on website... so he get notification with it.. and it will signout his account? if yes please pm me...

How To Set Up an Apache, MySQL, and Python (LAMP) Server Without Fr...

This article will walk you through setting up a server with Python 3, MySQL, and Apache2, sans the help of a framework. By the end of this tutorial, you will be fully capable of launching a barebones system into production.

<VirtualHost *:80>
        <Directory /var/www/html>
            Options +ExecCGI
        </Directory>
        AddHandler cgi-script .py
        # The ServerName directive sets the request scheme, hostname and port that
        # the server uses to identify itself. This is used when creating
        # redirection URLs. In the context of virtual hosts, the ServerName
        # specifies what hostname must appear in the request's Host: header to
        # match this virtual host. For the default virtual host (this file) this
        # value is not decisive as it is used as a last resort host regardless.
        # However, you must set it for any further virtual host explicitly.
        #ServerName www.example.com

        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
        DocumentRoot /var/www/html

        # Available loglevels: trace8, ..., trace1, debug, info, notice, warn,
        # error, crit, alert, emerg.
        # It is also possible to configure the loglevel for particular
        # modules, e.g.
        #LogLevel info ssl:warn

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

        # For most configuration files from conf-available/, which are
        # enabled or disabled at a global level, it is possible to
        # include a line for only one particular virtual host. For example the
        # following line enables the CGI configuration for this host only
        # after it has been globally disabled with "a2disconf".
        #Include conf-available/serve-cgi-bin.conf
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =www.mysite.xyz
RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [END,NE,R=permanent]
</VirtualHost>

#

thats my /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf

#

most of it except the top is default, and I didnt change the directory index, cuz it already defaults to index.py

#

the test.py file, in root, is mode 755, and it's just printing the raw python

#

if anyone has any advice, needs more info, @ me. thanks :3
edit:
restarting apache2 is giving no errors, and nothing shows up in /var/logs/apache2/error.log
and this is my python script

#!/usr/bin/python
import cgitb
cgitb.enable()

print("Content-Type: text/html")
print()

Discord has support for Markdown, which allows you to post code with full syntax highlighting. Please use these whenever you paste code, as this helps improve the legibility and makes it easier for us to help you.

To do this, use the following method:

```python
print('Hello world!')
```

Note:
• These are backticks, not quotes. Backticks can usually be found on the tilde key.
• You can also use py as the language instead of python
• The language must be on the first line next to the backticks with no space between them

This will result in the following:

print('Hello world!')

@cold anchor Thanks a ton bro! Python works like a charm

1 core
with cpu load of 0.8%

It was able to handle 10K concurrent websocket connections

All I did was change the open files limit

#

Memory usage is also low

#

I'm pretty sure it would get as high as 50K in a single server

I also seperated the NLP and the API layer

Hello guys. I'm new to web dev and currently programming basic web cgi's from flask.

#

I don't know HTML so what is the best tool to kinda design the web-page and then it gives you the HTML output.

#

And can you suggest me the best tutorial series.

#

I want to learn Flask for the fundemantels before moving on to Django so i can get the basics right and make better websites.

tired root May 15, 2020, 3:45 PM

#

Learn HTML

#

this is the only answer

#

You are also not programming servers, you are programming a cgi

#

@native tide

#

Also, learning Flask to be better at Django is the wrong approach

#

if you want to be good at Django, use Django

native tide May 15, 2020, 3:56 PM

#

@tired root Wow. Thanks a lot for the answer and for correcting me. I'll learn HTML then.

#

🙂

#

"Common Gateway Interface" is that what you mean with cgi.

tired root May 15, 2020, 3:57 PM

#

WYSIWIG with HTML has been tried, it has failed, any sort of visual editor just does not get it right

#

Yes, the python variant is called wsgi though

but it is essentially the same

OK Thanks

Have a nice day.

It's a program called by the web server which returns html and http status codes and gives it to the web server

2 minutes for 3 orders is little long

#

knotty seal May 15, 2020, 4:09 PM

#

I made the video just to show some folks.

#

Also, it won't be used on mobile.

#

What I need to do is figure out how to have multiple people in an office use this to order.

#

It will be an app purely for people in my office.

tired root May 15, 2020, 4:10 PM

#

idk try a web server?

#

it's a web app isn't it?

knotty seal May 15, 2020, 4:11 PM

#

Yes. So let's say 10 people make an order. Do I send that data to a database and compile the order into one long one

tired root May 15, 2020, 4:12 PM

#

Someone needs an interface to check the orders and get them for the people

#

But are your co-workers that damn lazy so they can't go to the coffee maker themselves?

knotty seal May 15, 2020, 4:12 PM

#

It's for a coffee shop. Not an in-house coffee maker.

#

And covid-19. So the fewer people the better

tired root May 15, 2020, 4:13 PM

#

Then look for a way to integrate it into the POS

#

Or just use a tablet to display the current orders that servers can look at

#

in any event, you need a web server

knotty seal May 15, 2020, 4:13 PM

Staff will be paying me - or another person in the office. We will pay the shop via credit card or whatevs.

#

I work for the government in an office. We have a cafe we order from. I want people to order on this app between say 7am and 9.30 am. Once 9.30am hits, I send the order to the coffee shop. They make 10-20 coffees and deliver them.

#

Okay.

tired root May 15, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

You need to talk to the owner of both networks

#

if they even want that

knotty seal May 15, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

They don't need to want this. The network doesn't matter. This is a web page that people in my office will place an order on. That order will be sent to the coffee shop. By email perhaps.

#

Anyway. Thanks for trying to help.

Hey guys, currently have code that uses gspread to input data from Riot API (League of Legends) into a Google Sheet

Right now it's pinging the API once per cell -- looking to have it do it once per row, or table, so I don't max out after every game input

Can anyone help?

I am trying to build a desktop app for webpage. They don't have an API. So I have revrse engineered the network requests and built the app.... But there is one request that uses vue js on the frontend to dynamically generate the data based on filters chosen which I am not able to understand how.... So, I'm planning to load up the webpage on the app, let the user build the filter and capture the data that is being posted. Is it possible? If yes, how can I do it?

cold anchor May 15, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

does their ToS allow this? if not, we unfortunately can't help with that

native spindle May 15, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

Yes. I have mailed them about it. They have said as long as it within their rate limits, it's going to be fine

cold anchor May 15, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

I'm not sure about the platform you're using to develop specifically, but most desktop app builders have a way to "frame" a browser window, you could use that

#

not sure about "capture the data that is being posted", that's some serious security stuff you'd probably have to get around

native spindle May 15, 2020, 6:02 PM

#

The data to be posted is processed on the frontend so nothing serious about the security. It's just a bunch of filters that enable/disable other based on values and built into a final query

cold anchor May 15, 2020, 6:04 PM

#

when messing with these filters on your browser doesn't help you figure out how to construct the filters?

gleaming herald May 15, 2020, 6:30 PM

@cold anchor Keeping open files to 50K does increase it to 28K concurrent connections

#

But what exactly is this open files limit

#

what's it job and does it affect any other functions maybe security

#

Tried google but no proper source for the max open file feature

cold anchor May 15, 2020, 6:31 PM

#

a big part of its job is to prevent a user from accidentally opening a bajillion files

i have a general question and wasnt sure where to really start looking to learn about it. Say the site actual url is url.com/WorldWarTwo. If someone types in url.com/WWII, how does it know to redirect to the right link

tired root May 15, 2020, 7:01 PM

#

You can write redirects with .htaccess rules if you are using apache

#

or simply have a second alternative route when using flask

#

@app.route("/WWII")
@app.route("/WorldWarTwo")
def ww2():
  pass```

odd swallow May 15, 2020, 7:03 PM

#

ah i see you'd predict/write the case exceptions you want to recognize and then feed it through what u actually want. Ok ty i know where to star tlooking

tired root May 15, 2020, 7:04 PM

#

The W3C standard requires case sensitive routes, keep that in mind

#

so adding more rules for lower and upper case violates that

```I have something like this in my code, I cut it shorter so its easier to see what I want to do but
`legacy` is a variable referring to a discord bot. Currently to do this I use threads and run both the website and the bot in the same application just on different threads. That doesnt work on linux so I need to make the website get data from my bot over HTTP. How would I have my bot send data to this dashboard view?

Hi all

#

Question:

#

Let's say I wanted to work with an API or sorts, and the data would be returned in JSON format as most APIs do.
If I wanted to make a dashboard of data taht is to be fair, very structured, is it better to use SQL or noSQL? What would be easier to work with in the long run? Im using Flask btw

Good evening everybody. I'm having trouble finding tags in beautiful soup. Is there a way to find a tag (to then move to the other ones in the parse tree) by looking for it's string content rather than it's id/class/name/etc?

#

<td>
this is the string I wanna search for
</td>

#

For instance, if I wanna find that particular td tag by looking for "this is the string I wanna search for", how should I proceed?

pulsar ivy May 15, 2020, 11:35 PM

#

If u mean like get only one at one time and store them separately i would do it with for loop

delicate heart May 15, 2020, 11:35 PM

#

No, it goes like this:

#

<td>
MyString1
</td>
<td class="numero"> A specific value related to MyString1</td>
<td class="numero"> A specific value related to MyString1</td>
<td class="numero"> A specific value related to MyString1</td>
<td class="numero"> A specific value related to MyString1</td>
<td>
MyString2
</td>
<td>
<td class="numero"> A specific value related to MyString2</td>
<td class="numero"> A specific value related to MyString2</td>
<td class="numero"> A specific value related to MyString2</td>

#

The site is structered like that. So my idea was to find the "td" that contains "MyString1" and from there move down to one of those specific values (they're just numbers).

#

self.big_div = self.soup.find("table", id = "container_table").find("td")
if str.__contains__(self.big_div.text,"MyString1")

#

I tried that to check and see if the table that holds those "td" contains the string I'm interested in. But that doesn't help because doesn't return the tag itself.

tired root May 16, 2020, 8:20 AM

sure, if you send them something via sockets

native tide May 16, 2020, 8:20 AM

#

so sockets could do it?

tired root May 16, 2020, 8:21 AM

#

Click button -> send data to server -> send data to user

#

but they'd need to be connected with sockets all the time

#

I'd just do a flash on reload

#

if using flask

native tide May 16, 2020, 8:21 AM

Add the pending flash to the db, flash it when the user refreshes

just that if i press as admin that 'ban' button, so it will logout his account

tired root May 16, 2020, 8:24 AM

If you are using js a lot, have js pull the data every couple events

native tide May 16, 2020, 8:24 AM

#

yea... thats issue.. i never used js :'D soo i wanted to know if there is a way in python itself

tired root May 16, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

The issue isn't python, your issue is with http

#

but if there are no dynamic javascript elements, every action is a refresh

#

so all the user can do is look at the page

#

when he refreshes and is banned, it should lock him out

#

you can strengthen that by using database sessions and delete the session

native tide May 16, 2020, 8:27 AM

#

i'll try it.. :'D wait

its bit cheeky.. but i'll try something :'D

tired root May 16, 2020, 9:11 AM

#

Some mistakes can leak tokens, that give others access to those accounts in your name

#

and that is a very bad thing

If you only want the email, use a form

haughty root May 16, 2020, 9:12 AM

#

Ok

#

But then they will have another password for my website?

tired root May 16, 2020, 9:14 AM

#

You need to phrase things better, to say what you want. So you want to use OAuth, but if you have no clue about it, it is not advisable to use it

#

because of reasons I've mentioned earlier

#

This is not something to be taken lightly

#

Yes, they will need to enter a password, but I'd rather have my account on a shitty site hacked than my gmail oauth tokens

            "form": form,
                }
    return render(request, 'week6_app/searchrecords.html',context)```


Wondering if i can somehow modify user input to delete a record based on id. So if user enter 1 it will delete acer (referring to the image above) 
I have this seperate delete function that works with a  seperate form on a different html page. 

```python
def delete_view(request, id):
    obj = get_object_or_404(Computer, id=id)
    if request.method=='POST':
        obj.delete()
        return redirect('../')
    context = {
        "Object": obj


    }
    return render(request, 'week6_app/delete.html', context)

I'm wondering what you would use as the http response for, "I have received your POST request, bu the server has determined that something is wrong with the data being sent or you manipulated it."

oh i created db with flask adn sql alchemy

#

i am trying to make something like pinned posts

native tide May 17, 2020, 11:08 AM

#

Well, I can't speak to that, but to mark a boolean, you would ahve a boolean field in Post You would do something like

post = Post.query.get(1)
post.pinned = True
db.session.add(post)
db.session.commit(post)

fickle fox May 17, 2020, 11:14 AM

#

i will try that thanks

#

how to use elif with jinja?

#

    {% for post in posts %}
        <div class="pin">
        {% if post.pinn.True %}
            <h2>jestee</h2>
            <h2>{{ post.title }}</h2>

            {% if post.author %}

@last hull see these both are totally different things and yeah it totally depends on what kind of implementation u are applying to. If it's a standalone where you need a database the SQL will be useful and if it's a Web App then REST API is the thing u need to dive into.

When you’re creating a flask or Django app with a database do you normally build out the web forms and templates first or do you start with the database design?

You have to use the name of your blueprint @wild thunder {{ url_for('name_of_blueprint.send_email') }} Otherwise it cant find the route.

hey @native tide !

So I have a few questions about the requests library and Im assuming since it has to do with web this is the place to post them.

-when and why would I use put, post, patch?
-and what would be the point to log in to a site or fill out a form on a site with a script that uses requests?

quasi ridge May 18, 2020, 1:43 AM

#

you use put, post, or patch if the website, or API, you're dealing with requires that you do that.

#

you log in or fill out a form if the web site requires that you do that 🙂

warm igloo May 18, 2020, 1:43 AM

#

yeah, it's django
@native tide

I lean on Flask and not Django but I’ll try to help.

Is change_password your function in your view? Or are they just default from Django?

@rose shadow

Search the web for HTTP verbs. I probably have a good bookmark I share with mentees, but don’t have access to share at the moment.

requests and other libraries combined with it are great for writing bots and spiders. Crawl a site, fill out a form or login, scrape the data, etc.

I have a Flask website runninng but I now want to expand the database to include a new model, how can I do that if I want to preserve everything else?

Are you using Flask-SQLalchemy?

twilit drum May 18, 2020, 1:47 AM

yes

warm igloo May 18, 2020, 1:48 AM

Search for Flask-SQLAlchemy migrations.

#

Sometimes just knowing the term to search for is hard. I’m not just trying to pawn you off on google. 🙂

twilit drum May 18, 2020, 1:48 AM

#

Oh yeah, thanks. I have heard about django migrations but didn't think of Flask possibly having them

#

No, that's helpful. Sometimes you just can't put the words together, you know

warm igloo May 18, 2020, 1:49 AM

Totally understand. Half of me helping people is helping them search the right thing.

You’ll see what you want to do is really easy.

Man, now I don't even know if I should learn Django too. The only other reason left is ecommerce capabilities. Based on what I have seen Flask isn't good at it. But maybe I'm wrong

I love flask. Django has too much in it for me. Too much magic.

twilit drum May 18, 2020, 1:54 AM

#

True, but corey schafer has some fantastic tutorials for both

warm igloo May 18, 2020, 1:54 AM

I can say this e-commerce though: make sure not to reinvent the wheel. Maybe consider offloading e-commerce bits to a backend you can wrap with your flask site.

I wouldn’t handroll an e-commerce site myself nowadays.

twilit drum May 18, 2020, 1:56 AM

If I was doing it for myself I would probably stick to Flask, but it's for a potential job, so I'm kinda worried to screw up

warm igloo May 18, 2020, 1:57 AM

#

Gotcha. Best of luck on it for sure.

Flask just matches my brain a bit better. I’ve always used lighter weight frameworks like this. Slim for PHP. And the little c# I’ve written is in NancyFX.

Versus the big boy frameworks.

twilit drum May 18, 2020, 1:58 AM

I'm a pygame and Processing guy so I totally understand

just a quick follow up on migrations. I should create a separate migration.py file for it and then run on every machine? (I'm using git so I have it on local and remote)

rose shadow May 18, 2020, 2:07 AM

#

@warm igloo ive used it for webscraping but ive recently decided to try to use it more for web automation and I have a few ideas but I just really need to clarify and bounce these off my head.

so I understand that I can login and fill forms out in requests but what would be the benefit of using a script? like thats the only part of that (filling forms out) im having trouble with cause I dont know why I should.

so just from what Im hearing, the only time I would post put and patch I should send data but when would I know or want to send the data?

when would I know the server can do something with post, put, patch data and how would I know what the server would do with it.

warm igloo May 18, 2020, 2:12 AM

#

By reading their docs @rose shadow -- ultimately those verbs are convention. I make a post do lookup actions, I can make a PUT command do a deletion, etc. But I don't, cause I'm nice.

For instance, I've seen plenty APIs that never use anything but POST and GET. So if you sent a PUT, it would do nothing. Maybe it would send a BAD METHOD response, but only if they allowed it. They could make it do nothing at all.

#

If this is talking to a server you don't know, didn't make, don't have docs for ... well, you'll just have to try and see what happens. 😄

#

This is a decent breakdown of the verbs and when to use. But again, convention. 😉

Quick question, I have a Flask blog where I pass my {{ post.content }} into a template, but it is always cast into a text, meaning if my post.content has something like <a href="#"> Link </a> it won't be interpeted as a link. But how can I make it interpretable?

cold anchor May 18, 2020, 3:47 PM

{{{ post.content }}}

ah, I think I'm using syntax from another template engine

I think jinja is {{ post.content | safe }}

OH SHIT. You are a hero

It worked, thanks

#

A follow up. Does 'safe' imply it will be immune to some sort of html injection?

cold anchor May 18, 2020, 3:53 PM

no, it implies that it's "safe" to render as HTML and you've taken care of the security concerns

I think you're looking for static files

Hey guys so I’m implementing a Django website. In one model I want to be able to have multiple foreign keys that pertain to the same model. I know we can add multiple with the related_name attribute but is there a more sufficient way since the multiple foreign keys might not be all used

quick cargo May 18, 2020, 4:24 PM

#

have you told django that its a static folder tho (or atleast) a folder to serve to

viral sphinx May 18, 2020, 4:24 PM

Could we have a one to many relationship, as a model can have many relationships to a foreign key

how ?

@quick cargo

quick cargo May 18, 2020, 4:31 PM

Well last time i checked (I havent used django for a while) Is it disables serving static files via the url in production.

An easy solution is use nginx to serve the media folder

how ?

tired root May 18, 2020, 4:45 PM

You obviously need a second server, such as AWS or a VPS

#

then just add an A/AAAA record for example.com, pointing to the other IP via sub.example.com

yeh i sea some comment on aws server but i must have a credit cart

#

VPS ?

tired root May 18, 2020, 4:48 PM

Can you add a second vhost on heroku?

@tired root you have your own server ?

tired root May 18, 2020, 4:50 PM

#

From what I see from the Heroku docs, you can add subdomains

#

so just serve the static files with a subdomain, e.g. cdn.example.com

#

if you have a domain

#

or use whatever heroku gives you

Hello, I'm currently making a simple covid site with flask. However, the numbers that the flask program gives do not update unless I tell my web host (pythonanywhere) to reload. Is there any way that I can make it so that my code runs every time someone visits the site?

tired root May 18, 2020, 5:28 PM

#

How are the numbers updated? Only the routes that are visited are run, so maybe what you want is a cronjob

deft minnow May 18, 2020, 5:30 PM

the numbers are taken from some python code I wrote to scrape some info from another site

#

then it returns a string

tired root May 18, 2020, 5:31 PM

Doesn't answer my question

How is it run, when is it run?

deft minnow May 18, 2020, 5:34 PM

Oh ok, sorry. This is my first time making a public website, and I just assumed that it would run every time a user accessed the site if I put it in my mysite folder (it doesn't). I apologize for being unknowlegeable, don't really know a lot

short pebble May 18, 2020, 5:49 PM

I'm not entirely sure where to put this, but here seems appropriate.
Currently, I have a locally hosted d.py bot that's working quite nicely. I also am working on a website on that same server, which uses apache2. However, I want to add a login to discord button to my website (oauth2) so I can link connections on discord (since I believe that's the only way to retrieve connections). All the examples I've seen online use flask to run the webserver, but I wouldn't be sure how to move from apache2 to flask. What would be the best way to allow my d.py bot to access the oauth2 link?

tired root May 18, 2020, 5:57 PM

#

apache2 runs flask with mod_wsgi

#

and you access remote uris with the requests library

#

pip3 install requests
import requests

short pebble May 18, 2020, 5:59 PM

#

oh okay, so i really shouldn't have to do much extra?

tired root May 18, 2020, 5:59 PM

#

you need to modify your website to allow oauth

#

it has little to do with the bot actually

#

modifying the bot to spit out an oauth url is the smaller issue

#

implementing oauth to your website probably the bigger one

quick cargo May 18, 2020, 6:01 PM

I would have a look at requests_oauthlib module

tired root May 18, 2020, 6:02 PM

I have a hunch it isn't python

haha yeah im trying my hand at web dev for the first time so its html

quick cargo May 18, 2020, 6:03 PM

you need an actual webserver to use Oauth2

#

if you want to not die that is

short pebble May 18, 2020, 6:03 PM

#

you saying for security reasons?

tired root May 18, 2020, 6:03 PM

#

Him saying he is using html has little to do with having a webserver or not

#

maybe he should first build it, before thinking about infrastructure

#

testing is perfectly fine on http.server or werkzeug

quick cargo May 18, 2020, 6:04 PM

#

im saying If you are just using Apache to just serve html files you might want to consider using an actual web backend e.g Flask (if you want to do py that is)

tired root May 18, 2020, 6:05 PM

#

Flask is not a web backend

#

it's a wsgi library

#

@short pebble First thing you need to do, is to switch your web to flask or any other dynamic web language. But the question is, why do you need a login? Does it serve a purpose that makes the added responsibility worth it? and can you handle data in a way that is safe?

#

Because in most cases, a login is not even needed nor beneficial

quick cargo May 18, 2020, 6:06 PM

#

Im thinking more because hes got a bot

#

he wants to make a web dashboard

tired root May 18, 2020, 6:07 PM

But it adds a big workload and administrative strain

quick cargo May 18, 2020, 6:07 PM

#

or something of the sort

short pebble May 18, 2020, 6:07 PM

#

okay ill look into flask then, thanks. well, for the most part, its the main purpose of the webserver. the only thing the login does is save discord identity and connections. I just need to get their discord id as well as their steam id.

Are you trying to make a dashboard for your bot?

then use Alt identifier lol

what you are describing is litterally what alt identifier does

#

i also doubt that the amount of scammers and self bots you encounter is more than average and makes it worth setting up an entire site for. And if it is above average then its probably likley that you're advertising your server in the wrong places.

zealous siren May 18, 2020, 6:22 PM

You ask the bot to register, it generates 16 alphanumeric token for you, stash that information in database then sends you a link

#

you go to website, run through OAuth procedure with the game, and using that token, I tie your Discord ID and Game ID toether

short pebble May 18, 2020, 6:24 PM

yeah i mean thats pretty much all i need. i can already generate that token with my site, just was looking into tying it into my bot, since its the one that has to work with it

zealous siren May 18, 2020, 6:25 PM

problem is signaling to the bot it needs to adjust roles, I'd consider researching Discord API and just tapping it manually for role assignment

#

it's not difficult at all

#

hmm okay, we'll see what i can do lol

zealous siren May 18, 2020, 6:27 PM

token will come from the bot most likely

so you will need to look up that information

Hi

in an api im using

#

Which means clients with good 100-Continue support are very nice to have
curl versions curl-7.19 and newer have excellent 100-continue support
curl versions curl-7.58 and newer need to add --location-trusted flag if you are including an Authorization header

#

How do i do 100-continue in requests http lib

cold anchor May 18, 2020, 6:48 PM

100 is a status that the server send to the client, not the other way around

native tide May 18, 2020, 6:49 PM

#

Well im getting some sort of issue with the Internet Archive API

#

wget works with Authorization, curl doesn't (but it does when using --location-trusted

#

With python requests http lib

#

I'm getting 403

#

and according to their API docs, they noted:

#

Archive is much more likely to issue 307 Location redirects than Amazon is.
Which means clients with good 100-Continue support are very nice to have
curl versions curl-7.19 and newer have excellent 100-continue support
curl versions curl-7.58 and newer need to add --location-trusted flag if you are including an Authorization header

So i am including an Authorization header

Requests does not handle 100 responses currently because the underlying Python libraries are unable to handle them. This is a known issue but until Python has support or we replace the library underpinning urllib3, we won't be able to provide support for this.

Cuz i've been having this issue since yesterday. wget is getting 200, curl only gets 200 if added --trusted thingy, System.Net.HttpWebRequest (microsoft) is getting 403 and pythong requests as well. Insomnia is getting 200, postman gets 403

While learning Django, I was taught to setup the HTML template like this so that the form would be re-directed to a view that had an if request.method == 'POST'...

<form method="POST" action="{% url "my_app:url_namespace" ARGUMENT %}">
--- snip ---```
However, my current book is ommiting the action= and it still works. The form/model is pretty much identical...

<form method="POST">
--- snip ---```

From what I could guess, by default the form gets submitted back to the same URL it came from if no action is specified. Is that right?

This class of status code indicates a provisional response, consisting only of the Status-Line and optional headers, and is terminated by an empty line.

To have a server check the request's headers, a client must send Expect: 100-continue as a header in its initial request and receive a 100 Continue status code in response before sending the body.

#

why doesnt

#

headers = {
    "Expect": "100-continue",
    "authorization": f'LOW {access_key}:{secret_key}'
}

response = requests.request("GET", url, data=payload, headers=headers)

#

work then?

tired root May 18, 2020, 7:04 PM

#

because the underlying libraries cannot handle it

#

they don't know what to do with 100

#

you'll need to use a different language

native tide May 18, 2020, 7:05 PM

#

Ok that's fine, i was only using python to check if it works

#

I'm actually trying to do this on c#

#

i hope its client can handle this

#

fingers crossed

tired root May 18, 2020, 7:09 PM

#

@native tide E-Tags are a hash of the content and you first send a http request without it, then the server responds with E-Tag: number and you are supposed to send it with the next request. If the content did not change, the server will send "an empty" package with 304 not modified as status code.

#

Otherwise 200 OK with the new content

native tide May 18, 2020, 7:16 PM

Maybe what you are trying to download does not exist anymore

#

thought about that?

native tide May 18, 2020, 7:17 PM

#

but it does

tired root May 18, 2020, 7:17 PM

#

or something is wrong with your authentication

native tide May 18, 2020, 7:18 PM

#

Yeah i've been through that

#

Many times now

#

The auth works on wget / curl --trust / insomnia

#

so it's working

#

Also tried it without the auth header on those clients

#

it gets a 403

#

so the header is fine

tired root May 18, 2020, 7:18 PM

#

try using the curl api?

native tide May 18, 2020, 7:18 PM

#

For?

tired root May 18, 2020, 7:18 PM

#

what you are doing

#

CURL has a programming interface via their library

#

C bindings

#

see if you can get it on nuget

native tide May 18, 2020, 7:19 PM

#

oki

#

On stackoverflow they say not to call curl

#

options are basically:

#

Well, you wouldn't call cURL directly, rather, you'd use one of the following options:

HttpWebRequest/HttpWebResponse
WebClient
HttpClient (available from .NET 4.5 on)
I'd highly recommend using the HttpClient class, as it's engineered to be much better (from a usability standpoint) than the former two.

not sure if you've seen it but it looks like they have an API https://archive.org/services/docs/api/index.html

native tide May 18, 2020, 7:31 PM

Yes im using the api

cold anchor May 18, 2020, 7:31 PM

and a CLI which has a download command written in python https://github.com/jjjake/internetarchive/blob/master/internetarchive/cli/ia_download.py

jjjake/internetarchive

A Python and Command-Line Interface to Archive.org - jjjake/internetarchive

native tide May 18, 2020, 7:32 PM

#

Yeah i've used the cli

#

BTW wtf

#

How does their cli work?

#

They manage to get around the 100-continue

#

ive read through the cli library a few times

#

So apparently it is possible

#

I'm seriously losing my mind rn

#

I have to be missing something

#

missing something that causes some clients to get 200 and others 403

#

And so I'm not sure if it's caused by the expect 100-continue or not

cold anchor May 18, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

try running it directly from the cli code and not using it as a cli and setting the log level to DEBUG

native tide May 18, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

like i'm digging through exactly this part a lot: https://archive.org/services/docs/api/ias3.html

#

Yes how do i do that?

#

Cuz yesterday i was trying to use wireshark to check all outgoing http requests

#

how to check how their headers etc. looked in contrast to clients that are not working

#

U mean like clone the repo and then do: $ ./__init__.py ia download "....file.iso"

cold anchor May 18, 2020, 7:37 PM

#

import logging
logging.getLogger().setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

...
# import from ia package and download a file

#

I was even talking like going into an interactive python repl and try doing it from there

#

nah hold on guys before all the piracy stuff

#

I'm trying to make a general IA downloader

#

Not for roms / isos

#

but these specifically had private files

#

that's why im doing the testing mostly on this

cold anchor May 18, 2020, 7:41 PM

#

you're making a public downloader for private files?

native tide May 18, 2020, 7:41 PM

#

Well you can access them if you have the correct credentials

#

So users can log in through the app

#

And then i can request their access / secrets through /login

cold anchor May 18, 2020, 7:42 PM

#

but you're giving IA the same credentials no matter the user on your end?

native tide May 18, 2020, 7:42 PM

#

and present them the files

#

no u can use their endpoints

#

to get access / secret

#

same thing the cli is using

cold anchor May 18, 2020, 7:43 PM

#

I'm confused on the difference between what you're making and what IA already is/does

native tide May 18, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

https://archive.org/services/xauthn/ with params: op=login then email + password

#

IA has a python cli client, but not an easy way for basic users to have the same funcionality

cold anchor May 18, 2020, 7:46 PM

#

I'm still confused, are you logging in for users on their behalf to make it a better user experience?

native tide May 18, 2020, 7:46 PM

#

And there's like 0 examples with open source projects

Yes, it's a very well made platform already, im just trying to develop on top of it to give basic users more options

JS runs in the browser, python cannot. you'd have to run your python script on the server side of the website

if you want a div with two font sizes you should use 2 different divs

Let's say you have a registration page where users can register for your website. What exactly would you name the html file, the view, and the url? I imagine it doesn't really matter as long as it works, but would you just name them all register?

native tide May 19, 2020, 4:48 AM

#

@native tide yeah, nothing is wrong with naming different parts of the app the same thing ... the important thing is to ensure you're cleanly and clearly naming what it is/does

#

and the view, route, and template file are all for registering after all, so it makes perfect sense to name them all register

https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_css_sticky_element.asp

#

theyre called sticky elements

#

if you havent seen this site before, I really recommend it for any web shit. they teach you a lot of design structure concepts

like parallax scroll which is really cool

its a lot simpler than I thought lol. You just put a position: sticky; in the div you want to stick

thats nice
