#

take a look

#

Also I think Asana can do this as well, but it has a lot more features and can become confusing real quick, but that's just my opinion

sudden grail Oct 3, 2020, 6:23 PM

#

Right, i get it. I like the kanban based things, but i can't get around this "finished" or "done" columns. Why are they even alive?

#

I have thought about making it visually nicer

#

more modern

#

because it was cool, but i think it's outdated

#

You cant see the list of subtask with the main task in kanban, you have to always open one..

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:26 PM

#

I mean

#

they can eventually be archived for cleanup purposes

#

so that you only have the latest changes in them and the historical ones are archived

fickle fox Oct 3, 2020, 6:27 PM

#

guys do you know how to save images as binary files in database??

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:27 PM

#

I guess, it depends on your workflow and requirements

#

@fickle fox you shouldn't tho

#

which Framework ?

fickle fox Oct 3, 2020, 6:27 PM

#

flask

#

and why not

sudden grail Oct 3, 2020, 6:28 PM

#

I guess, it depends on your workflow and requirements
@marble carbon Yeah i know. I'm just trying to get a better overview of the market by asking ppl around

#

and why not
@fickle fox propably you should just store the file path in db

#

and the exact file on the server pc

#

or some 3rd api that gives you back the url

#

you store the url and get the files through it

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

@fickle fox https://blog.miguelgrinberg.com/post/handling-file-uploads-with-flask

Handling File Uploads With Flask

A common feature in web applications is to let users upload files to the server. The HTTP protocol documents the mechanism for a client to upload a file in RFC 1867, and our favorite web framework…

#

no don't save file in db

#

it'll slow down your queries over time

#

save them on disk and just store the path in database

sudden grail Oct 3, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

like i said 😛

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:30 PM

#

ye I misread lmao

#

follow the guide it is good

fickle fox Oct 3, 2020, 6:30 PM

#

hmm okii

#

thanks

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:30 PM

#

@sudden grail how many people are in your team

#

Basecamp is better and more advanced than Trello tbh

#

that's more developer focused

#

I have usually seen devs ranting about Asana xD

sudden grail Oct 3, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

@marble carbon iam alone. I just wanna make my own product but there are two ways of doing this. I want a simple solution, but useful. Like trello was in his ages

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:33 PM

#

Hmm you see

sudden grail Oct 3, 2020, 6:33 PM

#

I just want to get a small piece of the cake you know

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:33 PM

#

to me Trello seems perfect because, when you have multiple tasks on your board

#

and you only display title, it's good and more focused, showing the details of each task might get overwhelming

#

there's also Github Projects now

#

but it has less features as compared to Trello

#

no comments on Tasks

#

no attachment etc

sudden grail Oct 3, 2020, 6:36 PM

#

And what about monday?

#

Monday.com i mean

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:38 PM

#

I think it's similar to Asana, haven't got the chance to use it

#

it seems more focused on teams

sudden grail Oct 3, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

And do you think there is place for improvement?

#

Can i dm you? 🤭

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

oh hmm there's no priority system in Trello tho, I do it instead with Labels and due date

#

Monday seems to have it

#

I mean if we keep the conversation here, others might be able to pitch in their experiences as well

#

in DM you might miss out on those insights

sudden grail Oct 3, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

Yeah, but usually noone cares 🥺

#

But right

#

Priority system really missing🧐

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

I am working on a Trello like system also, I mean I want to implement so new features so I dont think I would share, Gergo is looking to monetize any ideas that he sees are missing, to get a competitive edge over current competitors

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

Also no calendar view, but hey it's free, Monday has no free tier

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 6:43 PM

#

Point being I dont really share ideas publicly when its purpose is to be monetized.

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:43 PM

#

Yeah it's alright

#

wait

#

@sudden grail are you planning to make a Trello like tool yourself?

#

I think I totally missed that part

#

yert

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

I just want to get a small piece of the cake you know
@sudden grail Yea

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

Oh hmm

sudden grail Oct 3, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

@sudden grail are you planning to make a Trello like tool yourself?
@marble carbon yeah

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

lol then you should do all this research yourself xD

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

He wants to milk you for his business ideas @marble carbon

#

😄

sudden grail Oct 3, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

Thats why iam asking bro

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

idk, ig im too kind, I never understood the motive

#

oop

#

yert

sudden grail Oct 3, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

I try to better understand the market

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

Eh but if you ask in a dev community any ideas you get would be like instantly worked on by others in here that find it interesting

marble carbon Oct 3, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

yeah lol

#

what language do work with btw?

#

you*

#

sudden grail Oct 3, 2020, 6:54 PM

auth_views.LoginView.as_view(template_name='users/login.html')```

When pointing to my template w/ template_name, CSS isn't picked up (but with return render() within a view it is). Does anyone know how to fix this?

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 8:45 PM

#

o.o you can pass in template_name directly into as_view()

#

did not know that, where is your model at @native tide

native tide Oct 3, 2020, 8:46 PM

#

my model?

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 8:46 PM

#

are you using django?

native tide Oct 3, 2020, 8:46 PM

#

yea

#

my css file? my html file?

#

I don't understand what you mean by that. I'm new sorry

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 8:47 PM

#

Are you not passing in a object from a Model?

native tide Oct 3, 2020, 8:49 PM

#

no...

#

Is it possible to filter down an html table that is populated from a database using a dropdown menu with values from the database as well? I've been using flask for this project with the front end being formatted with assistance from wtforms.

native tide Oct 3, 2020, 9:16 PM

#

probably w React and some APIs

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 9:28 PM

#

in your views are you importing from django.views import generic? @native tide

#

As before you where using render from django.shortcuts but now you switched to a generic call

native tide Oct 3, 2020, 9:30 PM

#

no I'm trying to implement it into urls

#

📎 unknown.png

#

instead of using my own view

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 9:31 PM

#

well wherever you are using it import generic from django.views

#

are you are trying to use a generic template from django

#

instead of rendering

#

also when I followed Django tuts it calls template name inside of views. @native tide but if you are going to use it inside of urls you still have to import generic still I would imagine

#

also why did you import render into urls if you are not using render o.o

#

@native tide

native tide Oct 3, 2020, 9:34 PM

#

I was just trying render to see if it would do anything, but it didn't.

#

I'll read into django.views import generic, can you explain what it does?

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 9:35 PM

#

of course wont do anything if you arent calling render, but why are you trying to render directly from urls, I wouldnt recommend it

#

how would you handle any errors needed

#

import generic is just a even shorter version of using render.

native tide Oct 3, 2020, 9:36 PM

#

no I'm not trying to use render, I was just experimenting

#

I'm trying to use auth_views.LoginView.as_view but I can't get the CSS loaded through it

#

but if I use a view with render(template-name) the CSS is loaded

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 9:37 PM

#

this is inside of views

#

from django.views import generic
class DetailView(generic.DetailView):
    model = Question
    template_name = 'polls/detail.html'``` this is how my view looks inside of Django

native tide Oct 3, 2020, 9:38 PM

#

Ok. So since LoginView is predefined, can I customize it?

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 9:49 PM

#

LoginView is supposed to reference a class in your views

#

such as DetailView, that is what your LoginView should represent @native tide

native tide Oct 3, 2020, 9:50 PM

#

Oh I didn't know

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 9:50 PM

#

But what tut are you following, o.o

#

You should not be that lost.

#

Lol I just got into the generic views part of Django like literally 2 hrs ago, and here I am helping you right away

native tide Oct 3, 2020, 9:51 PM

#

So in my views I need to make the class LoginView?

#

I was following Corey Shafer

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 9:51 PM

#

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/intro/tutorial04/

Writing your first Django app, part 4 | Django documentation | Django

#

Yeah create the class LoginView

#

The Django tut on the Django website is pretty straight forward.

#

I am watching some of the NewBoston Django vid, but not coding while watching as I see how he builds the song playlist app.

#

Just to see how he works passing in real data to Django, but other then that you should get used to reading from documentations

#

@native tide it will make your life much easier

#

what does Corey Shafer build in his tut

native tide Oct 3, 2020, 9:57 PM

#

Some sort of social media app

#

But thanks I think I'm just gonna follow django tut

#

and using the parts that I want for my own projects instead of following others

haughty turtle Oct 3, 2020, 9:59 PM

#

yea, if you want then watch Corey Shafer afterwards but not code just watch how he implements the social media part into django

guys, any tips on how to receive post requests?

#

i'm using postman to test

grizzled sand Oct 3, 2020, 10:57 PM

#

Hello guys, could you explain please, difference between this types of declarations namespaces for urls?
First one we define app_name first, in second one we dont, but using include() with extra str ` app name'

First declaration

# blog/urls.py

app_name = 'blog'

urlpatterns = [
 # post views
 path('', views.post_list, name='post_list'),
 path('<int:year>/<int:month>/<int:day>/<slug:post>/',
 views.post_detail,
 name='post_detail'),
]

#urls.py root
urlpatterns = [
 path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
 path('blog/', include('blog.urls', namespace='blog')),
]

Second declaration

# blog/urls.py
urlpatterns = [
 # post views
 path('', views.post_list, name='post_list'),
 path('<int:year>/<int:month>/<int:day>/<slug:post>/',
 views.post_detail,
 name='post_detail'),
]

# urls.py
urlpatterns = [
 path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
 path('blog/', include(('blog.urls', 'blog'), namespace='blog'),
]

haughty turtle Oct 4, 2020, 1:39 AM

#

@grizzled sand in the second declaration you are declaring the app name in the include, unlike in declaration 1 where you declared it in the blog url.py

#

"include()
include(module, namespace=None)
include(pattern_list)
include((pattern_list, app_namespace), namespace=None)
A function that takes a full Python import path to another URLconf module that should be “included” in this place. Optionally, the application namespace and instance namespace where the entries will be included into can also be specified."

Hi,

I am learning Django and how to handle API calls. I'm using https://rickandmortyapi.com/ Rick and Morty API to work with.
I'm building the characters page first. You can visit it here: https://rickandmortyapi.com/api/character/
I am able to make a call, get the response and display it on the webpage.

As every page has only 20 records, I want to have a link at the bottom of the first page to call https://rickandmortyapi.com/api/character/?page=2 this URL. The next and prev pages URLs are there in every API call so it is easy.

Now instead of displaying contents from an external API server, I want to render this next page onto my website. I have linked the above to an anchor tag in HTML and it is redirecting it to the external API as it should be. How can make a call to external API, and still render everything on my website?

The Rick and Morty API

The Rick and Morty API is a REST and GraphQL API based on the television show Rick and Morty

So I'm wondering how to approach this. I have 2 different routes. Buyer and Seller. I want them both to have access to /dashboard. And /dashboard should either render seller-dashboard.html or buyer-dashboard.html based off their user role. However, I can't have two routes called /dashboard. How can I achieve this

marble carbon Oct 4, 2020, 7:18 PM

#

inside your view

#

check if authenticated user is buyer or seller

past cipher Oct 4, 2020, 7:18 PM

but buyer/seller is two diff routes

show code

for urls and views then

past cipher Oct 4, 2020, 7:19 PM

one for seller

one for buyer

buyer_bp.route

seller_bp.route

?

how about a redirect

to those routes

based on type or user?

is anyone familiar with proc files and uploading web applications to heroku with git?

#

i keep getting an error telling me that my procfile isnt working even though its in the right directory and I used multiple sources to figure out the format of said procfile

class MyForm(forms.Form):
  # stuff
  class Meta:
    widgets = {
      'date_due': {'class': 'changed-class', 'type': 'date'}
}
This is the better method if you're not doing any special stuff in the __init__ method. @solar ridge
@versed python

#

I seem to get a AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'is_required' ?

#

Did you come across this as well?

#

Or does anyone else know how to modify the "type" attribute of a widget from the Form class?

Hey folks. I wanted to know is it possible to use Webpack with Django and Python? And how hard is it if that’s possible?

@solar ridge https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/ref/forms/widgets/#styling-widget-instances

Widgets | Django documentation | Django

solar ridge Oct 5, 2020, 8:19 AM

#

I've already read that documentation before which doesn't seem to work as expected. Following those guidlines I can set the date type, however if I visit the form from say an UpdateView which has prepopulated data from a model, then the date input does not retain that information, and instead shows a blank date input field

#

I'm starting to lean on the idea this is a bug in Django, setting the "type" attribute doesn't change a DateTime model input field. Overriding the input_type from the inherited TextInput widget (django\forms\widgets.py) changes the attribute, but does not populate the field with the original model data when in an update view

#

The only solution I have been able to make is using ```python
self.fields.get('date_due').widget = forms.TextInput(
attrs={'type': 'date'}
)

#

and that's inside the Form init

#

At some point between modifying the type input and rendering, the original value of the field is not converted.

Lets say I have two tables

class User():
  id = db.column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
  task = db.column(db.String(20), nullable=False)
  address = db.relationship('address')

class Address():
   id = db.column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
   attempt = db.column(db.String(50), db.ForeignKey('user.task')

Now inside my route I pass through a query like:

return render_template('test.html', usr=User.query.filter_by(id=12).first())

Can I not access the address table because I setup up a relationship?

#

instead of having to also query the address table separately

Hello everyone,

I have a Flask app that's running on Heroku. It currently uses Global variables to reference data across views and functions. I want to get rid of Global variables and use a database instead.
The data won't be stored permanently. It's only necessary while my web-app does its thing.

Do you have any tips on how to go about this? Should I just make a single database with all 34 Global variables?

ay guys, i cant find information on how to use OrderingFilter from django rest framework inside ModelViewSet @visual pivottion, does anyone know how would i implement that?
@glacial night you just have to import (from rest_framework.filters import OrderingFilter) and add these 2 variables in the class based view

filter_backends = [OrderingFilter]
ordering = ['column name']

#

@glacial night where are you getting ModelViewSet from?

#

basically inheriting the class right ?
so its a class based view

#

decorators ? they dont work on classes

#

can you post your code here

#

oh ok i thought you were directly trying to order the viewset output, not sure about this though

#

@glacial night how about adding the ordering in the product serializer itself ?

nova crest Oct 5, 2020, 2:28 PM

#

In my Flask app, I have multiple global list variables, such as:

location = ['address 1', 'address 2', etc]
appointmentTime = ['time 1', 'time 2', ect]

The values in the list are user-specific.
I want to replace these global variables with a database. Is it possible to put these list variables in one database?
So, I'd have 1 column for user_id, a column for location and a column for appointmentTime.

#

oops, wrong channel

abstract kite Oct 5, 2020, 2:33 PM

#

@glacial night sorry not sure about how to do that
i would like to try this hacky solution, order the query set with .order_by('column_name'). replace the column_name string from the request data 😅

so on this flask app i need to display how many clients are running right now

#

not this how much views

not viewing page

#

see first i run my flask app

#

ok

#

then i run client code means 1 client connect to my appp

#

and it keep sending info

#

if i stop client code then 0 client is connected

#

i guess some counter stuff work but idk where to put it

native tide Oct 5, 2020, 4:06 PM

I was looking at brython a little more closely @haughty turtle
It relies on a Javascript library, brython.min.js so to be honest I'm skeptical that its a realistic solution. That being said, if they advance it, it cant be any more insane than any of the rest of the front end frameworks. But it cant be actual python.

If anyone has more experience than the last 30 minutes of me looking at it, Im interested as well.

Yeah I mean as it's not massly adopted I imagine they have to build it on top of js in the meantime @native tide

But has potential

native tide Oct 5, 2020, 4:11 PM

I'm interested in knowing if its using an actual python interpretter. But I havent had time to investigate it a lot. I think its a cool idea though as well.

I do recall that at one point gdude said to someone asking if client side python was possible, something to the effect of... 'Technically yes, but its not a good idea'

i mean my project is in this directory

so we cannot have app here

#

it is not making sense

native tide Oct 5, 2020, 4:21 PM

Django project structure is the most confusing thing about django.

#

If you have not done it yet i recommend doing the practice polls app on their documentation

obtuse kite Oct 5, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

and also cannot understand properly the c directory thing u told

Because it explains the confusing waay of it.

@native tide can i start a call with u if u don't mind?

maybe just screen sharing

No, Im afraaid i do not have time for that. Sorry.

If you dont learn the very strict project structure it only gets worse as it gets bigger.

@obtuse kite are you on windows
@stable kite yes sir

If you dont learn the very strict project structure it only gets worse as it gets bigger.
@native tide that's why i stopped my tutrioal and learning it first

@stable kite is it 1s or Is?

#

it is 'ls'

#

not '1s'

obtuse kite Oct 5, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

just i have to type Is without any suffix or preffix sorry if it get u annoyed

stable kite Oct 5, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

it is just ls

marble carbon Oct 5, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

LS but small

stable kite Oct 5, 2020, 4:28 PM

#

you dont have to type any suffix or prefix

[projectname]/
├── [projectname]/
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── settings.py
│   ├── urls.py
│   └── wsgi.py
└── manage.py

Its confusing becaause if you're following the default structure you will have something like this

#

you have a project folder inside of a project folder

#

You have to be in the outer project folder

#

The reason why it is like this is easier for you to just read

#

But its confusing at first

Lets say I have two tables

class User():
  id = db.column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
  task = db.column(db.String(20), nullable=False)
  address = db.relationship('address')

class Address():
   id = db.column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
   attempt = db.column(db.String(50), db.ForeignKey('user.task')

Now inside my route I pass through a query like:

return render_template('test.html', usr=User.query.filter_by(id=12).first())

Can I not access the address table because I setup up a relationship?

Hi friendly people, I have a Django website that has a different name locally than on my server. Thus far, any time I have done recursive copies of the entire website onto the server, I have gone into the files and changed all references to the name by hand, but this is pretty tedious. I could write a script to do this, but that might take a little time to get right. Does anyone know of any pre-built tools to recursively search through all the files in a directory and replace a string (or substring) with another pattern?

Hey! I have a begginer question about Django. I think the easier for me to explain it is to show my code, here's what I got in my urls.py:

    path('<slug:slug>/', views.LanguageDetailView.as_view(), name='languagedetail'),
    path('<slug:slug>/', views.DomainDetailView.as_view(), name='domaindetail'),

And in my Views:

class LanguageDetailView(generic.DetailView):
    model = Language
    slug_field = 'slug'


class DomainDetailView(generic.DetailView):
    model = Domain
    slug_field = 'slug'

So the idea is that if it doesn't find any Language model with that slug, instead of showing a 404 error it searches a Domain model with that slug and show it (and then if it doesn't find one, throw a 404). Obviously right now it doesn't work for the second part, if it doesn't find a Language it throws a 404 error withour searching for a Domain. I would like to know what is the cleanest and better way of doing it. (I tried to do that by overwriting the get method in LanguageDetailView but that didn't work well and doesn't seem to be a clean way of doing it at all)

Hello, anyone here use django-notifications package before? I am trying to find a good way to mark my notifications read but not sure what a good approach would be.

dense slate Oct 5, 2020, 9:42 PM

#

@devout coral If you're comfortable doing it, I just made a simple ajax function that will refresh the events on the page with html/css that updates accordingly.

#

I'm not sure what the package does, but it was not a lot of work to get a notification system going.

#

And this way I had total control over it.

devout coral Oct 5, 2020, 9:43 PM

#

So question, would it be smart to just set all notifications to read as soon as I click the notifications button?

dense slate Oct 5, 2020, 9:44 PM

#

That depends what you want to achieve.

#

If you want them to read each item, make it per item. If you just want something like FB where it disappears after they open their notification window/drop-down, then sure.

devout coral Oct 5, 2020, 9:46 PM

#

I want to make it per item but how would I set it to read as soon as they click it? Every notification is basically a url to go to what happened. I was thinking of just adding it to the body of the url but then I would need the id of the notification when creating the notification.

#

Not sure if I made sense.

dense slate Oct 5, 2020, 9:46 PM

#

You can make the view of that event page set the event to read.

#

So when the event page loads, it changes its status.

devout coral Oct 5, 2020, 9:47 PM

#

Correct. That is what I was going to do, but how would it know which notification it clicked. Since this "event" page could be the same url for multiple notifications

dense slate Oct 5, 2020, 9:47 PM

#

You can send the event_id with the URL when they click it, load that object upon loading the view and if not read, mark it as read. Something like that?

Just a little freebie for anyone here -- I had a problem with a Django website where the name of the project has to be different on my local computer and server, so I wrote a script that goes through the entire directory and changes any reference to the project name both within file contents and in the names of the files and directories. I'm sure there are other programs that do this, too, and probably better, but I have tested this, and it seems to work, so I'm pasting the code for anyone interested in using it.

This works for any string/substring you want to replace anywhere within a directory with another string/substring. You can also include sub directories you want to exclude as long as it only requires the name (and not the full path) of the directory for specificity. You can see I excluded my virtual environment since it is a large, irrelevant directory, which would slow down the program. You can also choose which kinds of file extensions to check for since the string you're hunting for may only be in certain kinds of files.

#

import os, re, subprocess

# Target string and new string with which to replace it
target_string = 'local_site'
new_string = 'server_site'

# The root directory to make the changes to
target_dir = '/home/path/to/directory/containing/website'
# File types to check within for target string
file_types = {'js', 'css', 'html', 'py',}
# Subdirectories to exclude from search
exclude_dirs = {'venv',}

types_re = '('
for i, ftype in enumerate(file_types):
    if i < len(file_types) - 1:
        types_re += '\.' + ftype + '|'
    else:
        types_re += '\.' + ftype + ')$'

rel_dirs = []
rel_files = []
for root, dirs, files in os.walk(target_dir):
    dirs[:] = [d for d in dirs if d not in exclude_dirs]
    for d in dirs:
        if target_string in d:
            rel_dirs.append(os.path.join(root, d))
    for file in files:
        if re.search(types_re, file):
            rel_files.append(os.path.join(root, file))

# Go into each file and check for and change target string
for file in rel_files:
    with open(file) as read_file:
        new_file = read_file.readlines()
        
    with open(file, 'w') as write_file:
        for line in new_file:
            if target_string in line:
                line = line.replace(target_string, new_string)
            write_file.write(line)
    
# Change any relevant file names
for file in rel_files:
    new_file = '/'.join(file.split('/')[:-1]) + '/' + file.split('/')[-1].replace(target_string, new_string)
    file_cmd = subprocess.run('mv '+ file +' '+ new_file, shell=True, capture_output=True) #Command for Unix-based systems

# Put lowest directories first to avoid issues changing names
rel_dirs.sort(reverse=True)

# Change directory names
for rd in rel_dirs:
    new_dir = '/'.join(rd.split('/')[:-1]) + '/' + rd.split('/')[-1].replace(target_string, new_string)
    dir_cmd = subprocess.run('mv '+ rd +' '+ new_dir, shell=True, capture_output=True) #Command for Unix-based systems

#

Note: If you use this code, the commands (the first argument of subprocess.run) denoted by the comments will only work on Unix-based systems. You will need to use a different command if you are on Windows.

Is it possible to make the /admin site a login site for the admin user in flask? without making another template? and it only works for the admin?

#

if any experienced flask users could answer a could of questions in DM, i would really appricate it 😄

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 1:07 AM

#

@lean rapids I don't know Flask, but I know Django, and it's definitely possible. What do you mean by make it a login site? Have a link on the home page? Redirect to the admin page if the user is an admin? Even though I don't know Flask, I'm sure both are possible.

lean rapids Oct 6, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

@topaz widget So basicly, if i type in "something.com/admin" it sends me over to the admin page. (logged in)
but i dont want to be logged in, i want this site secured

#

do I need another template for this? which redirects me?

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

@topaz widget So basicly, if i type in "something.com/admin" it sends me over to the admin page. (logged in)
but i dont want to be logged in, i want this site secured
@lean rapids so you're saying you only want to be able to access it as an admin?

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

I didn't realize that was the default in flask. I'm sure you can change that.

lean rapids Oct 6, 2020, 1:13 AM

#

yes @vestal hound

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 1:13 AM

#

In Django, attempting to access the admin page will just give you a login screen unless you are logged in as an admin.

lean rapids Oct 6, 2020, 1:13 AM

#

ohh, in flask i can only type /admin and im in , no need for login

#

but i kinda want to login, so noone else can just type in /admin and they can do whatever they want

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 1:14 AM

#

Well, I'm sure there's a way to require user authentication to access certain pages or content. There's no way that's not a feature of Flask.

#

Maybe i have to make another template, but i was hoping i didnt have to :/

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 1:15 AM

#

No, I doubt it has anything to do with templates. It mostly likely has to do with your views.

#

(python files)

#

I mean, you could probably handle it in the template, but I don't think that would be the best way to do it.

#

The best way would be to put that logic in the view and then return a different template depending on whether the user was logged in as an admin or not.

lean rapids Oct 6, 2020, 1:17 AM

#

Read a lot about this func "is_accessible" which is suppose to do it, but i cant make it work, seem hundreds of tutorials but they kinda seem outdated, because they dont work 😦

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 1:18 AM

#

Well, I don't know Flask so I can't tell you specifics, but I'm sure there is a way to do it that isn't too difficult. That's just too big a requirement for a lot of websites

lean rapids Oct 6, 2020, 1:19 AM

#

ohhok,then im guessing i would have to make roles? (user or admin roles)

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 1:19 AM

#

Maybe. Django has those natively, but you might have to create that yourself in Flask.

lean rapids Oct 6, 2020, 1:20 AM

#

ohhok, well.. thankyou so much! 😄 I will probably have to go back to my googling/tutorial researching , there must be something , just cant seem to find it 😛

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 1:20 AM

#

Yeah, the solution is definitely out there. Good luck!

lean rapids Oct 6, 2020, 1:21 AM

#

Thanks 😄

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 1:21 AM

#

If you're going to be doing complicated authentication stuff, you can always make the switch to Django, too. Django has a reputation for being better than Flask with more advanced stuff.

lean rapids Oct 6, 2020, 1:22 AM

#

ohhh, my friend which is kinda experience(i think) in django, told me flask is easier (?) and sometimes better

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 1:24 AM

#

From what I hear Flask is easier to get started with, but Django supports more advanced stuff better.

#

Steeper learning curve with Django but ultimately more powerful.

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 1:29 AM

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 1:32 AM

Let me take a look

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 1:33 AM

#

there must be either some file i think or google does it itself and you cannot influence it

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 1:34 AM

#

Well, then it probably has to do with how they index the pages.

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 1:35 AM

#

thanks though

#

thats what i thought

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 1:37 AM

#

@native tide Sure, yeah it seems like it's probably how their algorithm ranks the pages

plucky tapir Oct 6, 2020, 1:48 AM

Small question but if I have a user logged in and I want to have the username at the top corner, do I have to push request username to the html?

versed python Oct 6, 2020, 1:58 AM

@plucky tapir in django templates, the current user is accessible by {{ user }}. So in your case, you can do {{ user.username}}

I am just getting into front end development and plan to just use sockets. I know how to feed raw html code into a response but is there any libraries to use the root directory of my TCP server for html and image files instead of hardcoding html?

If not I could probably just use os and read the files

i am going to genius.com to get lyrics of a song, so when going to lyrics page, in their souce `html code, i see multiple elements so which element should i access to get the whole lyrics?

@native tide I don't think sockets are really relevant to front-end development.

https://genius.com/Dj-snake-let-me-love-you-lyrics take this as reference (example) in this i want to access the text of all the verses and choruses

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 4:55 AM

You're talking about back-end stuff by the way @native tide

#

with the exception of HTML, which is front-end.

#

@cunning falcon Access all the elements that contain lyrics.

cunning falcon Oct 6, 2020, 4:57 AM

#

i was thinking about that only but its a command (so different song's lyrics) so different songs have different verses and all so elements are not the same in every song

#

its not possible..

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 4:57 AM

#

It's definitely possible.

cunning falcon Oct 6, 2020, 4:58 AM

I have question about django how we determine we need to make how many apps for any project

#

a lyrics command

#

at last piece of code, i get to the page where lyrics is

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:01 AM

#

@cunning falcon All the elements that contain lyrics have the class "referent" and it looks like "referent--yellow", too. I would start there.

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:01 AM

#

I know I'm using my own backend so I don't have to server host like this book suggests me to do

cunning falcon Oct 6, 2020, 5:01 AM

#

@cunning falcon All the elements that contain lyrics have the class "referent" and it looks like "referent--yellow", too. I would start there.
@topaz widget so what should i do?

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:01 AM

#

find elements by class name

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:02 AM

#

So if I could have my backend handle what the server host would it'd be good for learning

cunning falcon Oct 6, 2020, 5:02 AM

#

should i do find_ele_by_class_name("referent")
then print(element.text)?

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:03 AM

#

I don't know, I haven't used Selenium in a while. But using the class name is probably the way to go. If that doesn't work, those elements have all kinds of attributes you could use to find a pattern with.

cunning falcon Oct 6, 2020, 5:03 AM

#

idk much about patterns too

#

im new to it

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:04 AM

#

You don't know what a pattern is? What's your native language?

cunning falcon Oct 6, 2020, 5:04 AM

#

hindi

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:04 AM

#

But you learned English growing up, right? Don't most people in India learn English from a young age?

cunning falcon Oct 6, 2020, 5:05 AM

#

yes

#

i did

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:05 AM

#

Do you not know what a pattern is?

cunning falcon Oct 6, 2020, 5:05 AM

#

im not talkin about that pattern

#

i know that pattern what you are talking about

#

but idk how do i implement that in my code

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:06 AM

#

Code is all about finding patterns. If you don't know how to find patterns and write code to capture those patterns, I don't know how to help you.

#

I would just be doing your work for you. You have to find the patterns or see them, but I can steer you in the right direction.

#

@native tide I'm not sure what you're asking, and, to be honest, I think you need to do a lot of reading about basic web development concepts.

#

Confusing front-end and back-end tells me there are some pretty critical gaps in your knowledge.

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:10 AM

#

wait isn't html front end?

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:10 AM

#

yes but everything else you said wasn't.

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

Maybe the failing in my part isn't knowing enough of what I want to do

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:13 AM

#

So are you trying to set up an http server then?

#

If all you're trying to do is build some web pages and link them together, you can do that with http.server

#

Is that what you're trying to do?

#

If you're actually trying to build a website, you need to do a lot more than that.

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:26 AM

#

I don't want to host it on the www I just want to use localhost to see webpages I make

#

And it'd probably make my life a lot easier in the future if I read the front end code off of files rather than hardcoding it into my server file

#

I'll check out http.server

plush fjord Oct 6, 2020, 5:29 AM

#

http.server is really helpful and it can serve your HTML code off your current (or specified) directory.

#

Basically it spins up a webserver on your local machine and the static pages (including JS & CSS) are hosted off the server. You won't be needing any sockets/os module for doing the same.

#

Don't want to try and make something that already has a library

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:35 AM

#

@native tide If all you want is a local http server for the time being, just use the following command in the directory containing your root webpage (often index.html):
python3 -m http.server 8000

#

Do you know how to use the command line?

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:35 AM

#

Oh on god? That's pretty sweet

#

Much easier than using a socket

#

Yeah I know command line

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

Yeah python has lot of potential

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

Okay, also... you can use any number that is an available port after http.server, 8000 is just a typical one to use for localhost @native tide

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

you can specify the port

#

if you want

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

I usually used 8080 I know it isn't that important which

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

That would work fine.

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

port are just for yourself

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

But if you have multiple directories open at the same time you want to run at the same time, you can use different port numbers.

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

I used something like 10 to 15 ports per day

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

I used sockets on using a esp32 as a server so I was going off that

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:38 AM

Yeah, http.server takes care of all of that. It just turns your file directories into http protocol.

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:47 AM

#

hm

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:47 AM

#

And then just extend your knowledge with TS

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:47 AM

#

Learn TS bro

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:47 AM

#

I think it's the other way round

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

From what I understand, TS is a superset of JS

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

No TS is a superset of JS

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

it is

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

so learning JS won't hurt you in learning TS.

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

superset means you don't have to learn JS

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

I like to start with building things and then delving deeper into those things

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

You can directly jump into TS

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

so learning JS won't hurt you in learning TS.
@topaz widget but there are things you should do from the beginning if you're planning to use TS

#

in particular, typing.

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

there's some tooling but tsc isnt hard

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

like you can write Python without type hints

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

@vestal hound Such as?

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:49 AM

#

type hinting, more or less

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:49 AM

#

hence the type

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:49 AM

#

and because you are going to type your functions and stuff

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:49 AM

#

Yeah... If you trying to debug js... It's very hard

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:49 AM

#

it would be better if you wrote your interfaces and types from the start

#

since they need to be defined separately

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:49 AM

#

When I was intern at microsoft We used TS heavily

#

and python

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:49 AM

#

good for you

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:50 AM

#

There's many ways to skin a cat I feel

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:50 AM

#

Okay, do what they say and learn TypeScript then @native tide

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:50 AM

#

TS bindings are great when you have some thirdy party lib

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:50 AM

#

I mean

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:50 AM

#

Yeah... You can easily debug TS

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:50 AM

#

They seem to know more about TS than me, so I will defer to their judgment.

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:51 AM

#

you don't have to unless you're going to use Angular, at which point I think it really makes sense

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:51 AM

#

But dart also amazed me

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:51 AM

#

and I am a firm believer in the value of typing

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:51 AM

#

in FLutter

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:51 AM

#

in particular, when you use languages with very powerful type systems

#

you see their value in detecting errors at compile-time

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:51 AM

#

@vestal hound did you mean Java

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:51 AM

#

however, if you're still experimenting and you just wanna play around a little...

@vestal hound did you mean Java
@viscid roost no.

#

Java's type system is not powerful.

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:52 AM

#

I don't know how far I plan on going with web development but it'd be a good way of furthering my knowledge in computer science in general

#

Hi all

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:52 AM

#

hello there

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:52 AM

#

Hi

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:52 AM

#

If it might help me in the long run and net me a career someday I add it to the list

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:52 AM

#

Well, you should either learn TypeScript or JavaScript if you plan on doing front-end development unless you want a potato website.

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:52 AM

#

They seem to know more about TS than me, so I will defer to their judgment.
@topaz widget do you type hint your Python code?

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:52 AM

#

Whats the best way to go from nodejs to Flask?

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:52 AM

#

no JS, only HTML

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:53 AM

#

and which one is better just curious

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:53 AM

#

@vestal hound No. should I?

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:53 AM

#

If you want to be web dev
BACKEND => DRF, DATABASES
FRONTEND => VUE, ANGULAR

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:53 AM

#

ah, that's probably why

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:53 AM

#

I need to get good at databases

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:53 AM

#

@vestal hound No. should I?
@topaz widget do you use any statically typed languages?

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:53 AM

#

I try to keep all my variable names as unique as possible.

#

Not really, no @vestal hound

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:53 AM

#

Postgres is great

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:53 AM

#

Mongodb is great

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:53 AM

#

you can detect a lot of errors at compile time

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:53 AM

#

Postgres seems nice

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:53 AM

#

if you use a language with a sufficiently powerful type system

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:54 AM

#

MongoDB is also great

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:54 AM

#

because the compiler can prove that those errors can occur, given certain input

#

and alert you accordingly.

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:54 AM

#

If I can get it to work on my shitty chromebook massive brownie points

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:54 AM

#

type hinting is a way of bringing some of those benefits to dynamically typed languages

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:54 AM

#

Because mysql was not having it

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:54 AM

#

like Python and JS

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:54 AM

#

look user don't care in which tools you made the product they only cares in look and performance

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:54 AM

#

whats the best way to learn Flask coming from a nodejs background

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:54 AM

#

you can use JS instead of TS, just like you can use Python without type hints

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:54 AM

#

No love for SQL Server huh

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:54 AM

#

and in cases of small throwaway scripts it probably won't matter

#

but as your codebase increases in size, maintainability is markedly increased by proper typing

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:55 AM

#

@vestal hound Maybe I don't know what I'm missing, but I feel like I've been able to debug fine with dynamic typing.

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:55 AM

#

Flask... is a pain in neck

#

it don't have anything

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:55 AM

#

really?

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:55 AM

#

FastAPI is great

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:55 AM

#

Flask is great for small projects

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:55 AM

#

oof

#

so I shd stick with nodejs?

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:55 AM

#

I don't like node

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:55 AM

#

What sort of app are you making?

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:55 AM

#

I like Django rest framework

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:56 AM

#

just like a small non profit project

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:56 AM

#

its asynchronous ability gives it power with security

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:56 AM

#

you can use Node if you want

#

it's not a bad choice by any means

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:56 AM

#

so node good flask bad?

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:56 AM

#

Flask is...

#

not bad

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:56 AM

#

Node has security issues

#

Django has built in secutiry

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:56 AM

#

damn

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:56 AM

#

but you need many other parts

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:57 AM

#

well node isn't a web framework

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:57 AM

#

to build a fully-featured backend API

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:57 AM

#

Don't get too comfortable with Django, though.

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:57 AM

#

^

plush fjord Oct 6, 2020, 5:57 AM

#

I wouldn't say Flask is bad but when you're dealing with big projects, you tend to outgrow the framework

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:57 AM

#

I worked with Flask I agree it is a pain in the neck

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:57 AM

#

comparing Node to Django is pretty weird

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:57 AM

#

I've found Flask is really easy for my use cases

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:57 AM

#

Its security at least. Django's default authentication system leaves a bit to be desired.

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:57 AM

#

ahhh I see

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:57 AM

#

You can use any database in Django.... without writing in SQL

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:57 AM

#

For small projects flask is probably neat

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:57 AM

#

Node has security issues
@viscid roost like what

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:57 AM

#

I use SAML so support is universally spotty

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

You can use any database in Django.... without writing in SQL
@viscid roost Django's is not the only ORM available

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

well use it for authn

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

But for complex tasks I see flask just not doing it

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

Node don't have built in auth

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

@viscid roost Yeah, Django's ORM has been pretty decent in my experience.

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

Python doesn't either lol

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

it don't have hashing

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

okay so I should start with flask and if it gets big, I should move to smth else like Django?

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

Django

#

will be great

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

Django
@viscid roost Django is not Node

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

Just use Django

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

Django is great for crud apps

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

@viscid roost Yeah, node or express's lack of built-in auth led me to abandon it back to Django.

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

why are you comparing a runtime environment to a backend framework

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 5:59 AM

#

You'll be fighting with django if you're doing things outside the box

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:59 AM

#

you might as well say Play > Python

plush fjord Oct 6, 2020, 5:59 AM

#

Node used to have security issues in terms of packages and on who published the packages but I think it's now fixed as NPM is also having checks from their end

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:59 AM

#

Because we are taking about backend

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 5:59 AM

#

okay

#

so ig i'll learn django then

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:59 AM

#

okay, I primarily use it with DRF

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 5:59 AM

#

Yeah correct

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 5:59 AM

#

but fair, it is a web framework out of the box

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 6:00 AM

#

Node would express or sails

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 6:00 AM

#

@native tide Probably not a bad thing to learn if you already know Python.

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 6:00 AM

#

okay cool

#

I know a bit of python and node

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 6:00 AM

#

What do you use with DRF?

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 6:00 AM

#

Well you will never make a website with Django..... Use DRF + some frontend framework

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 6:00 AM

#

What do you use with DRF?
@topaz widget what do you mean?

#

oh, btw

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 6:00 AM

#

I assume some front-end framework but I missed the thread.

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 6:00 AM

#

Django lacks type hints

#

which is annoying

#

I personally use Angular

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 6:01 AM

#

If you're doing some small nonprofit site the best one is the one that lets you get shit done

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 6:01 AM

#

Yeah me too

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 6:01 AM

#

but it's up to you

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 6:01 AM

#

Have you ever used Vue @vestal hound

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 6:01 AM

#

nope

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 6:01 AM

#

Would you like to?

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 6:01 AM

#

My tech stack is .... Flutter + DRF + Java + angular

tepid lark Oct 6, 2020, 6:01 AM

#

Vue is neat, nicer to learn than react

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 6:01 AM

#

I wouldn't mind trying it out for a hobby project

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 6:01 AM

#

React is fucl

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 6:01 AM

#

what do you even use Java for

#

there are exactly 2 good things about Java

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 6:02 AM

#

For caffeine

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 6:02 AM

#

Java for Native Android Dev

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 6:02 AM

#

the strength of the ecosystem, and the power of the JVM

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 6:02 AM

#

Oops sorry.... I switched to Kotlin

#

instead of Java

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 6:02 AM

#

AAAA

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 6:02 AM

#

a wise choice

topaz widget Oct 6, 2020, 6:02 AM

#

@tepid lark Yeah, I liked Vue better when I was shopping around for a front-end framework to dig my teeth into.

native tide Oct 6, 2020, 6:03 AM

#

kotlin syntax makes my head hurt

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 6:03 AM

#

Kotlin is new official language for Android

#

Google is moving Java out of the frame now

plush fjord Oct 6, 2020, 6:03 AM

#

sometimes, Java sucks for the JVM part as when you're having complex requirements (say media streaming) and when you're trying to get the most out of your server then the same thing bites you back and you generally find yourself meddling with the JVM settings

#

This is something which I faced.

vestal hound Oct 6, 2020, 6:04 AM

#

yeah

#

that is true

viscid roost Oct 6, 2020, 6:04 AM

#

I use DRF for server side

#

dev
