[stable kite]

you should only use date field

[outer pier]

is there any possible way to do with datetime ?

[stable kite]

i think not because it stores time also but when you receive bet it's not the same time when you created it

class CreateBet(models.Model):
    owner = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL,related_name="bets",null=True, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
    bet_name= models.CharField(max_length=255)
    amount = models.CharField(max_length=255) 
    scheduled_datetime = models.DateField()```

this model should work for you

[outer pier]

but storing time is necessary for me .

[stable kite]

then you should use the same time for getting data

[outer pier]

ok I think I get it . Thank you for your time...

[stable kite]

@outer pier i think you should use lte in query to get data

[outer pier]

lte means less than i guess

ok lemme try

[stable kite]

less than equal to

because the time of creation is less than time of retrival

[outer pier]

yah you are right .

may be i should check it out . thank you so much

[stable kite]

no problem

[outer pier]

its still not working lte is having the value today andd previously created one

even gt is having the value today and upcoming one

[sudden grail]

Hey guys, i am really curious to know your thougts about these: https://carrot.io and https://twist.com.

Do you think it’s a growing market?

Do you find these kinda apps useful?

Thanks for any feedback in advance!

[lean rapids]

anyone know of a way of saying if the username is admin , they get access to the admin panel in flask?
currently with the "current_user.is_authenticated()" , everyone as long as they are logged in, get access to the admin panel.
But i want it that so if the username == admin, they get access, but only then.

[native tide]

is it good design to have a back button on page which takes user back to previous page or no?

[mint folio]

If it just replicates the browser back button then no. Users already know about the browser back button, or if on mobile the swipe. So if the browser gives you this option, and the users know it exists already, then why include a redundant version of this.

[native tide]

oh

[stable kite]

@outer pier use both lte & gte

@outer pier use lte with to today's datetime & gte with yesterday's datetime

@outer pier py def get_queryset(self): today = datetime.datetime.today() yesterday=today - datetime.timedelta(days = 1) return CreateBet.objects.filter(Q(scheduled_datetime__gte=yesterday) & Q(scheduled_datetime__lte=today))

[outer pier]

thankz

def get_queryset(self):
        def get_queryset(self):
        today = datetime.date.today() 
        return CreateBet.objects.filter(Q(scheduled_datetime__gt=today)).exclude(scheduled_datetime__date=today)

worked for me

def get_queryset(self):
        today = datetime.date.today()
        return CreateBet.objects.filter(scheduled_datetime__date=today)

todays bet

anyway thanq so much @stable kite for the time

[stable kite]

ok

[winter spindle]

hello

can someone help with how to enter font awesome fonts in my project

[versed python]

@winter spindle go to their website, click on get font awesome

you'll probably have to enter your email id, and then get the cdn in your email

use it between <script> tags as you normally would

[winter spindle]

ohh okay await i ll check and tell

bro how to get the CDN

@versed python

[proud falcon]

literally le first search I did led me to : https://www.bootstrapcdn.com/fontawesome/
https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css

[winter spindle]

bro what is tht kit

i dont use bootstarp

i like have a kit so should i copy its script ?

okya thanks i got it !

[proud falcon]

np :)

[marble carbon]

Has anyone ever submitted their Google OAuth App for verification?

If so, can you tell me about the process, what are the criteria that they check and all

[uneven radish]

Hi. Can anyone clear my doubt regarding Django and API call?

I am calling an API which will return data in JSON format, I am not planning to save any data into database. So should I make a model or directly render it on webpage?

[stable kite]

@uneven radish why should yo make model if you don't want to store data in database

[uneven radish]

How to use List View then? Without model?

[proud falcon]

If I understand correctly, you can add the json data in your context in the view, and then display it in your template file.

[uneven radish]

Oh cool. Thanks. I'll try that.

[uneven radish]

@proud falcon NewsListView is missing a QuerySet. Define NewsListView.model, NewsListView.queryset, or override NewsListView.get_queryset().
This error is coming.

[proud falcon]

a listview is a generic view for listing objects (the ones from models.py), so I suggest you to switch to a TemplateView, which does not requires any model :)

[high jacinth]

Help pls, can anyone direct me to a newbie friendly framework for testing asynchronous requests? Fake responses, httpstatus codes etc?

[visual iron]

hey guys i need to make a key value as a constant in my whole web application. how do i tackle this? i dont even know what to seach... im using flask, or you could give me something to search for or startwith

[native tide]

Help pls, can anyone direct me to a newbie friendly framework for testing asynchronous requests? Fake responses, httpstatus codes etc?
@high jacinth DRF it set up for doing this fairly well. Not sure if it meets your other criteria though.

[nova shadow]

How do I use Expires Headers in Flask?

[high jacinth]

@native tide DRF? What is that in full?

[native tide]

Django Rest Framework. I'm not on a work machine right now or I'd show you the default HTTP page you get when you set up an endpoint.

But look into it, its something you can add on to Django and makes serving an HTTP API very straight forward

If you're not already using Django it might be a bit more than you need

[high jacinth]

Unfortunately im not using django at all

Thanks anyway

[quick cargo]

@high jacinth to test a framework receiving the requests or a framework to test the requests being sent?

[high jacinth]

A framework to test the requests im sending.

[quick cargo]

just use https://learning.postman.com/docs/developer/echo-api/

[high jacinth]

Ok

Lets say for example I wanted to check if my fetch function waits long enough before retrying, can I do that here?

Or if it reacts to a 404 the right way

[quick cargo]

err if you wanna do that just make a simple flask app

from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route("/")
def hello():
    return "Hello World!"

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run()```

[high jacinth]

i think i get it

thanks

[untold lotus]

were do i go for game dev

oh neaver mind

i found it

[neat briar]

Hey guys.. i have a problem related to django
I have a database in which date is stored.
I want to get that object whose date matches with today's date.

[native tide]

do you have some tutorial that shows how to connect your flask app on heroku to an S3 Bucket?

[devout coral]

Hello, what icon would convey the message of terminate or fire.

[native tide]

Last time i found it so complicated, that i gave up and just made all data public and hardcoded the URL to the pictures in the s3 bucket

@devout coral prolly sth like https://www.flaticon.com/search?word=fire

But back to my Heroku / S3 problem: what is the correct way to do this?

I dont want to give up this time

[devout coral]

@native tide As in like to fire an employee not fire itself i mean

[native tide]

@devout coral try this one: https://www.flaticon.com/svg/static/icons/svg/48/48052.svg

for real tho try sth like this: https://www.flaticon.com/search?search-type=icons&word=job+rejection&license=&color=&stroke=&current_section=&author_id=&pack_id=&family_id=&style_id=&category_id=

[devout coral]

@native tide That is great, just got to find it in font awesome.

Don't want to add another icon library just for one icon

[native tide]

you can simply take the svg code from flaticon for the single icon

dont need to implement the entire library

[devout coral]

Finally done with the re design, any feedback?

[quick cargo]

maybe make that nav bar a bit easier to read / access

now everything else is more clean and smooth the nav seems a lil outa place

[devout coral]

Ok cool

[native tide]

where is the button to fire the employee?

[devout coral]

@native tide It is the running man

There are titles on hover so there won't be any confusion

@quick cargo Should I just make the background a dark color or something?

[quick cargo]

you can

you can make that a theme though ig

so light or dark

i dont think it looks too bad as white

though maybe try a gradient background or something

not too drastic change but enough to make the boxes a lil more pronounced

[devout coral]

Oh on the body backgorund?

[quick cargo]

id try it

#4299E1 -> #3333CC seems like a nice gradient to me at 150degs

[devout coral]

alright

I think I am just going to try to intensify the shadows instead.

[quick cargo]

hmm maybe

id add a shadow a bit to the nav bar aswell

[devout coral]

@quick cargo How is this?

[quick cargo]

looks good

maybe move the nav text weighting to semibold which is like 500 weight if i remember

[devout coral]

Here is 600 it was at 500.

[quick cargo]

look 👌

[devout coral]

Should I make the "Title" bigger the thing that says "Division 12"?

[quick cargo]

can do yeah

[devout coral]

@quick cargo Whhy is it that when I increase the text size of my title it also increases the image size?

[quick cargo]

if the image is set to fill how ever high it is then increasing the text size will increase the overall height

so maybe check what size the image scales to / is affected by

[devout coral]

Here we go

[plucky tapir]

On Django, If I'm logged in as a user, how do I have my input from user to a database table linked to my user logged in? Does it automatically do that or is there a way to have them linked?

A user can access the same specific set of info they inputted from the database.

[devout coral]

You want to figure out who is logged in?

You can use permissions and in the views when you do your query for you data check for permissions?

[tribal dirge]

How difficult would it be to make a search engine, that searches the internet ofc

[plucky tapir]

@devout coral When the logged in user inputs information into the database, is there a key or something that links it with the user logged in? I will have to look more into permisisons I haven't used it yet I believe

[tepid lark]

a basic keyword search engine would be easy
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/datatype-textsearch.html

• crawling websites and getting meaningful data back is the hard part

[plucky tapir]

Like to have the Users in the Authentication section (logged in), have their information linked with the input they put in to Usersinfo. From what I can tell there's no link that User put 'Example1' into Usersinfo

[tepid lark]

There should be a LogEntry when users update stuff.

Easiest way to check if it's a display problem or a model problem is peek around in your DB

[devout coral]

@plucky tapir Not by default, You can add a one to one relationship

[tepid lark]

oh or is that just inside admin models?

Anyways, I have a Django auth flow question. I can't figure out the best way to do SAML auth.

The python-saml3 lib is great, but do I use a backend or setup an auth app basically?

The way is works is you redirect to your identify provider, auth, then POST redirect back with a signed SAML assertion which gets consumed by you, the service provider.

[plucky tapir]

@devout coral I see thank you. I'm reading a bit on it and trying to sort the difference between a primary key (many to one) and one to one. For example, if a user will only have their own their expenses for budgeting inputted, that'd be a.....one to one?

[tepid lark]

what sort of table is Usersinfo?

If you've got user_id -> user_id, key, value on userinfo that'd be a one to many relationship

if you've got user_id -> user_id, extra1, extra2 that'd be one to one

[devout coral]

@plucky tapir The different relationships will determine how two tables will interact with each other. One to one means only one object from one table can ralate to only one object in the other table. One to Many will be one object from one table can ralate to many objects in the other table

[devout coral]

I am trying to overlay this img "On Hold" over the profile picture like you see above but I am getting that empty space where the "on hold" img was before doing the

position: relative;
top: -50%;

Is there any good way to do this properly? To note I am using bootstrap and the pictures are currently both in a col.

[quick cargo]

eh relative positioning will work fine

[white spruce]

yo @topaz widget hmu whenever you got some time lol

[devout coral]

@quick cargo It leaves that space tho.

If you look under the profile pic you can see the space

[quick cargo]

That's probably how your html is laid out

Make a div that is a relative box and then make the text absolute

So that the div contains both the image and the text

[winter spindle]

heyy !!

can someone reveiw my weebsite ?

@topaz widget

@marble carbon

[topaz widget]

@winter spindle Link?

[winter spindle]

yeah

i have made some changes tbh

@topaz widget

[topaz widget]

Well, I would center the main title horizontally first of all.

"don't just watch | learn"

Your vertical alignment needs some work, too.

I would put all the text in the main section in a container and make sure that container is centered vertically in the parent element.

You can play around with margins if it needs to be off-center vertically a little for balance (since the text on top is larger)

I would get rid of the Lorem ipsum text under the title. You should pretty much know what this is going to say.

I guess I don't know what's supposed to be in that block, but it looks like a sub-title or little blurb you should probably have a rough idea of what it should say.

All the letters in HTML should be the same case since it's an acronym.

all caps is best but sometimes you might do lowercase if all caps stands out too much.

[twilit dagger]

Hey can anyone tell me how I can do some of those cool intro effects when the page first loads in

@winter spindle Change the font ASAP bro, and fix the spelling

[vestal hound]

Hey can anyone tell me how I can do some of those cool intro effects when the page first loads in
@twilit dagger got an example?

[twilit dagger]

http://www.nycitimail.com/ @vestal hound Like when this page loads in

Someone asked me to make a site like this and it has these intro effects

[vestal hound]

oh

the animations?

[twilit dagger]

Yea

Can you give me some links to some codepens

[pallid arch]

@twilit dagger they just the normal fade in animations

Hi! Im working on a simple web app with python and django and i need to decide which frontend framework i will use, i have never worked with fronted libraries or frameworks before, which one is the most easy and quick to learn?

[marble carbon]

you don't have to use one

you can work without one, django has templating functionality too

but if I had to pick a framework, I'd pick Nuxt (based on Vue)

[bronze blaze]

I think bootstrap can also be used

[marble carbon]

I mean if you're new to frontend, try using Bootstrap first with django

you don't necessarily have to use any front-end framework

[modest agate]

Ok, thanks! I will try to use bootstrap

[vestal hound]

I picked up Angular first

it's kinda like Django in terms of design philosophy (opinionated)

[native tide]

Hello! I've been attempting login validation in flask against a hashed password (using from passlib.hash import sha256_crypt) that is stored inside a PostgreSQL database. While I am able to hash the password when it enters, I keep running into an error that reads TypeError: secret must be unicode or bytes, not wtforms.fields.simple.PasswordField whenever I attempt to check a users login password to the one stored in the database:

   username = StringField('Username', 
      [validators.InputRequired(message="Username required")])
   password = PasswordField('Password', 
      [validators.InputRequired(message="Password Required")])

   def validate_username(self, username):
      user_object = User.query.filter_by(username=username.data).first()
      if user_object is None:
         raise ValidationError("Username or password is incorrect.")

   def validate_password(self, password):
      hash_pass = sha256_crypt.verify(password, password)
      if password != hash_pass:
         raise ValidationError("Username or password is incorrect.")```


The way that it is placed into the database is by (this is in another .py file with the code around it omitted):
    `name = form.name.data
      username = form.username.data
      password = sha256_crypt.encrypt(str(form.password.data))

      registration_data = User(name,
                               username,
                               password)
      db.session.add(registration_data)
      db.session.commit()`


I've been attempting to try and solve this for a few weeks now and am at my wits end. I'm not sure if I am missing something blatantly obvious or if I set this all up wrong. If anyone has any suggestions or guidance to help me get on the right path, I would really appreciate it. Also, if I should have posted this in a python help room, I am extremely sorry for posting it here then.

[vestal hound]

@native tide just so you know, you can use three backticks for a code block

```py
code here
more code
```
becomes:

code here
more code

also, can you paste the full error traceback

my guess, though, is that this is the problem:

   def validate_password(self, password):
      hash_pass = sha256_crypt.verify(password, password)
      if password != hash_pass:
         raise ValidationError("Username or password is incorrect.")

I think you want password.data?

I have never used Flask, but judging by the text of the error and your validate_username method, I'm guessing password is the field object and you want password.data to extract the raw value from it.

[native tide]

Thanks for telling me how to do the code block, and I will get you the traceback in just one moment.

[vestal hound]

try what I said first though

[native tide]

Would that be on the second password in the verify section?

[vestal hound]

...both...?

[native tide]

I'll give it a try with each one then both together

[vestal hound]

actually

I think the way you're using it is wrong?

shouldn't you be pulling the password from the database

and doing it like

sha256_crypt.verify(password.data, password_from_database)

because the first argument is the raw password

and the second is the hash, right?

[native tide]

Yes, the first is raw with the second being hash

[vestal hound]

then why are you doing this

hash_pass = sha256_crypt.verify(password, password)

[native tide]

The documentation for passlib for sha256_crypt made it sound that I should do it this way.

[vestal hound]

where?

I'm looking at it

and it doesn't sound like that at all

>>> hash = sha256_crypt.hash("password")
>>> hash
'$5$rounds=80000$wnsT7Yr92oJoP28r$cKhJImk5mfuSKV9b3mumNzlbstFUplKtQXXMo4G6Ep5'

>>> # same, but with explict number of rounds
>>> sha256_crypt.using(rounds=12345).hash("password")
'$5$rounds=12345$q3hvJE5mn5jKRsW.$BbbYTFiaImz9rTy03GGi.Jf9YY5bmxN0LU3p3uI1iUB'

>>> # verify password
>>> sha256_crypt.verify("password", hash)
True

this is the example given in the documentation

it's pretty clear that the first argument is the plaintext and the second the hash

[native tide]

So my thought process was that I needed to put in what the field was called for where the entry would be entered, which in this case I named it password as it was the password field, for the hash section, I had it called password = sha256_crypt.encrypt(str(form.password.data)) which resulted in another password name (as a replacement to hash). So I thought for me to verify the results, I needed to do something along the lines of sha256_crypt.verify(password, password) since the first password would be the plain text answer along with the second password being there to replace hash.

[marble carbon]

I generally use bcrypt

[vestal hound]

I don't really understand your thought process TBH

there is only one circumstance under which that would work

and that is when a password is its own hash

unless I have misread what you're saying

[marble carbon]

huh, why did you put the same variable twice

[vestal hound]

yeah, precisely.

that's my point

[stable kite]

@native tide it should be py def validate_password(self, password): hash_pass = sha256_crypt.verify(password, password) if not hash_pass: raise ValidationError("Username or password is incorrect.")

[marble carbon]

huh, again

[native tide]

huh, why did you put the same variable twice
@marble carbon So when I was making the program, I ended up calling the index in my database as password which is the hashed value entering the database. Then when I was making the form... I for some reason named the form password as it was a password entry field. I can easily change the name of the one in the form though

[vestal hound]

yes, it returns a bool, but that's not the point

@native tide it should be py def validate_password(self, password): hash_pass = sha256_crypt.verify(password, password) if not hash_pass: raise ValidationError("Username or password is incorrect.")
@stable kite the point is that you shouldn't be verifying the password against itself

[stable kite]

ok

[marble carbon]

I see only one issue here

bad variable names

[stable kite]

he should pass the password from validate username ()

[marble carbon]

you're just confusing yourself

[vestal hound]

I see only one issue here
@marble carbon also that apparently password is a field object

and not a string

at least, that's what I guessed from the error

[native tide]

That... is 100% most likely.

[vestal hound]

not being a Flask user

[stable kite]

@marble carbon there are two issue

[vestal hound]

anyway I'm going to have lunch

happy debugging!

[native tide]

Thanks gm!

[marble carbon]

just fix your variable names

and you'll be good

[native tide]

I'll give that a try @marble carbon

[marble carbon]

so if validate password is

a form method

[topaz widget]

Hey does anyone know if chained comparisons are verboten in JavaScript?

[marble carbon]

also

wait

[topaz widget]

Anyone know about the possibility of chained comparisons in JavaScript? Or do I need to use && ?

[marble carbon]

wdym

give example

[topaz widget]

Can I do 5 < x < 10?

[marble carbon]

lol no

not even in Python

[topaz widget]

Are you sure?

[marble carbon]

you'll have to use &&

[stable kite]

we can chain in python

[marble carbon]

huh

[topaz widget]

That's what I normally do, but I saw someone use the chained syntax in chat the other day.

[stable kite]

but not in javascript

[topaz widget]

re: Python

okay

[marble carbon]

interesting

[topaz widget]

Cool, thanks for the clarification.

[stable kite]

as far as i think so

[topaz widget]

I'm pretty sure it doesn't work in JS because I just tried to do a conditional ladder that failed with the chained syntax.

[stable kite]

use '&&'

[marble carbon]

but I mean, i wouldn't personally use chained operations, might confuse others reading code

&& is more explicit

whats they?

[stable kite]

chaining

[marble carbon]

but it's specific to Python

right?

[stable kite]

i think no there are many languages that have chaninig

[topaz widget]

Mathematical syntax uses the chained syntax, so it's what's learned earlier in life typically.

[native tide]

@stable kite I gave that code block a try and TypeError: validate() missing 2 required positional arguments: 'username' and 'password' greeted me.

[modest agate]

it's kinda like Django in terms of design philosophy (opinionated)
@vestal hound
Ok thank! But which one do you recommend on terms of easy to learn?

[native tide]

@marble carbon I changed the password in the validation form and the login for to login_password and the error disappeared, it doesn't log in if I use the wrong username, but I can log in if the username is correct and the password is wrong. But at least it's a step in the right direction! Though you mentioned bcrypt earlier, do you recommend I switch over to that salt and hash instead?

[stable kite]

you have to pass two arguments that came from from your form that are username & password

[marble carbon]

I personally haven't worked with passlib, but have seen it mentioned in articles

[stable kite]

@native tide ```py
class LoginForm(FlaskForm):
username = StringField('Username',
[validators.InputRequired(message="Username required")])
password = PasswordField('Password',
[validators.InputRequired(message="Password Required")])

def validate(self, ):
user_object = User.query.filter_by(username=self.username.data).first()
if user_object is None:
raise ValidationError("Username or password is incorrect.")
else:
hash_pass = sha256_crypt.verify(self.password, user_object.password)```

[marble carbon]

user_object.password

[native tide]

I take it that the userobjects.password is meant to be user_object.password?

[marble carbon]

yea

[stable kite]

sorry my mistake

i changed it

[native tide]

@native tide but why are you doing like so djano have in built method for authentication
@stable kite I was planning on learning Django, but a friend recommended I give Flask a try and now I am determined to solve this problem before moving onto Django.

[SQL: SELECT "user".id AS user_id, "user".name AS user_name, "user".username AS user_username, "user".password AS user_password
FROM "user"
WHERE "user".username = %(username_1)s
LIMIT %(param_1)s]
[parameters: {'username_1': <wtforms.fields.core.StringField object at 0x000001BAEB901E48>, 'param_1': 1}]
(Background on this error at: http://sqlalche.me/e/13/f405)```

I may try changing a few more things in my code to get this to work, such as organizing the code in a more... reader friendly fashion... But I really appreciate the attempts for help, I think I messed up quite a few steps back so I am going to go back to where I first hashed everything and see if I made an error back there in the end.

[fiery crypt]

Looking for someone that I can work with to setup Flask-change-password module on my flask site. Please DM

[stable kite]

@native tide I have changed the code check & try it out

what if I want that element though in a div?

can't that work

say I got 9 divs

Are you saying that the element you are targeting is within a div?

[white spruce]

yeah

exactly

and it's the first div

[versed python]

yeah it can be done.

[white spruce]

it's actually the whole div

it's tic tac toe

lol

using xpath, or of its id of it has a unique one

[white spruce]

what if it has no id

hey, this is my first time using jinja and I've run into a suuper weird problem... the page is displayed with all the css but when you delete the css files it still runs normally is this a common issue or do you have no idea what I'm talking about

[white spruce]

dang

[eager panther]

lol no sorry I'm a noob

[versed python]

@eager panther maybe your browser has cached the css?

you need to force reload your browser

ctrl shift r for Google Chrome i think

hi guys, I'm setting up my first website but I can't seem to get the favicon.ico get actually displayed when i go to the website. I use Flask with templates and I tried putting the favicon inside the templates folder and the root directory, but it still doesn't seem to do the trick.

Any help will be appreciated

oh yeah by the way the website can be found on: https://matbitt.herokuapp.com

and yes i use heroku for this

the folder structure is like this:

How redirect on django from the real root (not an apps root) to an application?
I mean like from localhost:8000/ to localhost:8000/home

@abstract kite thanq ... helped me

[versed python]

@vapid acorn can you explain a bit? Do you want an html button to redirect? or use python code?

[abstract kite]

How redirect on django from the real root (not an apps root) to an application?
I mean like from localhost:8000/ to localhost:8000/home
@vapid acorn create a new route in urls for '' which will redirect to home/

[vapid acorn]

@versed python i meant like the website staring off at "home/"

[versed python]

@vapid acorn follow what thatrandomnpc said, but for production environments you'll have to look for more robust solutions, like configuring your apache or ngnix routing or something

class TestViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    serializer_class = TestSerializer
    queryset = Test.objects.last()``` Why does this result in 'AttributeError: 'Test' object has no attribute 'model''

[versed python]

Test.objects.last() will return a model instance not a queryset. @sullen basalt

[sullen basalt]

So how do I do this then?

[versed python]

i dont remember tbh but maybe try queryset = [Test.objects.last(), ]

[sullen basalt]

Results in: AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'model'

[outer pier]

show your test serializer

@sullen basalt try this py class TestViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet): serializer_class = TestSerializer queryset = Test.objects.all().last()

[gilded monolith]

Does anyone knows a python lib that does query parsing ala github API ? a bit like this js project https://github.com/GitbookIO/filterable ?

my aim is to have my_api/search?water_level:<=5000&&color:=pink for example

pls ping me if you some suggestion

[low blade]

are you trying to get the 5000 and pink values?

if so, you can try this https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/

[gilded monolith]

the 5000 and pink and the operator

we use a little flask app

so i can easily get stuff like field=value with request.args

i just want something more versatile

Hey guys, I needed a help in CSS

What I'm facing currently is : I've coded a website and now there's a scrollbar over the x-axis which is really looking bad.

I've tried *{ overflow : hidden} but it actually ruins a text effect I've used.

Surprisingly, the text effect isnt doing anything wrong coz I removed it from my project once and it did not affect anything which ensures that its completely fine.

I just spotted the problem (ig so) , whenever I do it width : 98 vw, it removes the scrollbar-x, but whenever i make it 100vw , it adds the scroll bar back

[worn mural]

@gilded monolith I never head of an framework that has this '<' operator. But if FastAPI is the GOAT to builduing fast and scalable REST API

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in discord, you can paste your code here:

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the floppy disk icon in the top right, or by typing ctrl + S. After doing that, the URL should change. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

Hey! What is the minimum time that i can learn enough javascript to implement it on a project with for example react

[versed python]

if you go as you learn?

just learn basic js and start with react

you will probably hate your life for the next few weeks, assuming you already don't, but you'll catch up soon

[marsh canyon]

vue is a really good alternative to react

and easier to learn

[modest agate]

you will probably hate your life for the next few weeks, assuming you already don't, but you'll catch up soon
@versed python lol i will try with react if it's to difficult i will go with vue.js

[versed python]

do yourself a favor, go with vue

especially since you don't know js

[modest agate]

Ok, yes , thinking that better, i think that i will go wih vue, because i have only a few weeks to build the project

[lofty matrix]

How do you limit user uploaded file size depending on the page/context? Consider youtube where a user may need to upload multi-gigabyte video files, but when uploading a profile picture, there is no reason to allow the user to upload anything larger than a few megabytes. Is this handled on the web server side or the application side? Can the "over size" error occur immediatly, or do you need to wait until the user has already uploaded the maximum amount of data before triggering the error

[umbral pivot]

can anyone think of a way to save any more space here? (save removing the indentation and newlines) ```html

<path fill="#F5A9B8"d="M0 1h10v3H0z"/>
<path fill="#FFF"d="M0 2h10v1H0z"/>

@lofty matrix if you're using django forms, then just use an appropriate validator to that field, django will take care of the rest

issue is that both card.front and card.back are visible when the page is loaded, however, when you click the button it exhibits the expected behaviour

[humble stump]

Ok, so like

if I add this line (line 2)

It works, but it loads it and then hides it -.-

I'm just fudging my way through this and it hurts me.

so like i can see the card.back very briefly then it just hides

I've updated styles.css to .cardBack: display: none; and this has not helped

Ok, it has, just needed to refresh with clearing cookies.

In Django how should I best organize all my JS and JQuery? Currently I have everything inline and I know I should move it to external files but don't know a good way to organize it all.

[marble carbon]

static/js?

[devout coral]

Yeah I have that now. BUt should I have one JS file per template?

[lethal orbit]

Yeah I have that now. BUt should I have one JS file per template?
Hell, nah.

[devout coral]

So one big JS file?

[lethal orbit]

Don't repeat yourself.

[devout coral]

Repeat?

They are all different functions

[lethal orbit]

Write reusable functions and share them, as much as possible.

[devout coral]

I am saying for organization purposes

[lethal orbit]

You can (and should) split them up in separate JS files...

But by functionality, not by template....

[devout coral]

That was the question. Was not sure what others did. I know to re use functions.

So as if they were packages then?

[lethal orbit]

So as if they were packages then?
Basically, yes. Hard to say without knowing anything about your project, but you could have e.g. a file with date functions, a file with text processing functions, a file for animations, etc.

[devout coral]

To be honest all this JS is solving one or more specific problem for the template as opposed to like utility functions.

@lethal orbit Yeah I get that, but most of my functions are not general purpose use.

That is why I said by template

[lethal orbit]

If it is highly template-specific, you can always keep it inline.

Like if you know it's not reused anywhere....

You can just stick a <script> tag in the template.

[devout coral]

https://pastebin.com/0zG5nRaW

[lethal orbit]

If it is not too large.

[devout coral]

This is one of my functions, it is only really used for this template though. I do not need it elsewhere

[marble carbon]

well no need then

[devout coral]

So leave that function inline.

Then when do I decide to move it to a separate JS file. Because technically if I need to use a function elsewhere or everywhere I could just but it in my base template. (which I had until a few minutes ago but not sure if that is the right choice lol)

My website here

[devout coral]

@native tide I did not get an error.

[native tide]

Did you get an email!?

[lethal orbit]

Hmmm... It is a bit long. Might not be a bad idea to separate it. I'd probably be lazy and just move it to a separate file, and just do <script>{% include "add_row.js" %}/<script> in my template lol

Then the file is cleaner while you edit, but you don't have to worry about serving it separately.

But I tend to use Django for APIs exclusively, so maybe not the best person to ask :p

[native tide]

O

@glass badger You mean using a class based view vs a function based one?

[native tide]

oh my

[devout coral]

You are using Django?

[glass badger]

@devout coral yes exactly, class based vs function. Sorry didnt know how to word it

[devout coral]

It is a preference thing tbh. I prefer function based views. But class based views can save you a lot of time, specially when paginating and filtering.

[glass badger]

so class view for lets say a blog?

[devout coral]

Class based views for a blog will probably make your life somewhat easier. A bit less code to write.

[glass badger]

Do things conflict when I have a mix of URL patterns?

for static pages like about, home, keep things function based, then for the blog part, keep things class based?

[devout coral]

It won't conflict.

But it might be easier to follow your code if you keep it consistent.

But even then, you should be fine in mixing it.

[glass badger]

awesome, I think I will mix it and be sure to document that.

thanks for the info!

[devout coral]

Ah documentation, lol. I need to get better at that .

[glass badger]

😄

for function based, do i need to create a new app for every page?

[lethal orbit]

No need for a different django app, just use different views.

Assuming they fit together.

Apps should be used to separate things logically.

You can have a home app, and an about app, but if they are small, don't rely on many models, etc. you can also keep them in a single core app or whatever.

[glass badger]

awesome, understood

[lethal orbit]

Matter of preference, really.

I have this

urlpatterns = [

    path('Shibboleth.sso/SLO/Redirect', views.sso_logout, name='logout'),

[trail axle]

is it possible for the frontend to receive text data from the backend?

[glass badger]

@jagged crater , I fixed it. the issue was i included include() to a url path twice.

thank you though for trying to help

[tepid lark]

@trail axle what do you mean by text data?

[versed python]

@trail axle of course, all requests are essentially text data

[tepid lark]

You can request whatever you'd like, JSON, HTML, XML god willing

[versed python]

albeit they have a definite structure, commonly json

[trail axle]

normal text, i.e
Hello World!

[versed python]

sure it can

[tepid lark]

Set up a view that returns text as a response, make a fetch or XMLHttpRequest call.

[trail axle]

it’s to write a web syntax highlighter without using too much js

[versed python]

yeah it can be done

[tepid lark]

Ah okay, you're returning preformatted text?

[trail axle]

basically, yes.
it returns

<span class="keywordhighlight">keyword</span>

[native tide]

im new to web development kinda

know a little html a little css

but I mainly do python and mysql

[trail axle]

is that kind of a bad way to do it?

[versed python]

nope it's completely fine

is the text itself highlighted on the server or client side?

[trail axle]

it highlights the text the person is writing on a <div contenteditable>

[versed python]

you said you won't use js so it's server side i suppose

[trail axle]

using innerHTML=highlightedText which comes from a replaced python string

[jagged crater]

@MrAwesomeRocks#9809 , I fixed it. the issue was i included include() to a url path twice.
@glass badger I assumed that was what happened, that's why I was asking for your urls.py files.

[acoustic oyster]

Hello, friends. Im hoping someone can help me understand backend auth.

I am using graphql for an api with django. I Would like to use token authentication for this. There is no good token auth module specifically for what I am doing and I would really like to learn this stuff.

I currently have a system to create a jwt token and send it back to the user. As a temporary test, I am testing that the token is valid in the DB, but I understand this is not needed and is also bad.

Could someone point me in the direction on how to build an auth backend for an api?

I am used signing in to get a bearer and refresh token, then sending a header like {"Authorization": "bearer <token_here>"} to make an authenticated request, and refresh token to get a new bearer token. I am unsure on what this type of auth is called our how I can code it from scratch in my own app. Any help is greatly appreciated.

[versed python]

if you are using any sort of Javascript framework for your frontend, most of them have a module to handle authentication.

[acoustic oyster]

this is purely python client to a python server

I am more doing this for learning. I am have been reading articles for awhile and feel that I am stuck. I am unsure how I can use a token ONLY to authenticate a user, ensure proper permissions, and that the token is valid without a db query. But the articles I am reading say that is the main benefit of JWT: authentication without the need to check the db

or even store a token on the server

I have just gotten to the point where I am out of google search results, so I am totally lost haha. This is probably better for #cybersecurity actually

how are your users supposed to access that website? browser? curl?

[acoustic oyster]

well, using aiohttp, or any method really xD this is a backend for discord bot client.

upon a bit more thinking and help, I am understanding jwt a bit more, but I am still unsure how to implement the full backend for this.

[versed python]

there's a lot of packages for this django-simple-jwt is one,though I have never gotten it to work tbh. Maybe try using them instead of implementing your own backend?

[acoustic oyster]

Ty, there are some tools I saw. I am more doing this for learning purposes as I would like to understand more about how jwt works and auth as a whole.

[versed python]

implementing your own sounds like a big task, can't really help with that tbh. But if you make a github for it, hit me up, I'll try to contribute.

[acoustic oyster]

It is on github as part of the backend for my bot, I do not have a separate module for it though.

[glass badger]

is it possible to chain together {% extend %} html files in django?

@glass badger I think you are looking for {% include "template_name.html" %} ?

[sour echo]

in this how to add space between different boxes

?

using css

[marsh canyon]

yes, use margin-left and margin-right

on each of those boxes

btw, are you using flexbox or grid ?

[sour echo]

div

    box-sizing: border-box;
    border:4px solid black;
    width: 100px;
    height: 100px; 
    display: inline-block;
    padding: 10px;
    text-align: center;
    transition: 3s ease;
}
div:focus{
    background-color: blue;
}
div:hover{
    width: 200px;
    border-radius: 200px;
    background-color: orange;
}
.animate:hover{
    transform: rotate(360deg);
    background-color: pink;
    width: 50px;
    height:50px;
}```

html code

[marsh canyon]

you can add margin on those divs and u will get spacing

[sour echo]

ok

[marsh canyon]

although, I would recommend you to look into flexbox, its really handy

[sour echo]

    box-sizing: border-box;
    border:4px solid black;
    width: 100px;
    height: 100px; 
    display: inline-block;
    padding: 10px;
    text-align: center;
    transition: 3s ease;
}
div:focus{
    background-color: blue;
}
div:hover{
    width: 200px;
    border-radius: 200px;
    background-color: orange;
}
.animate:hover{
    transform: rotate(360deg);
    background-color: pink;
    width: 50px;
    height:50px;
}```

css

ok i will try flex box

[marsh canyon]

ok done

thanks

👍

[ornate lotus]

@sour echo https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/

I learnt flex box from here hope this helps 🎀

Cool so ya i was working with flask on a web based card game kinda and i gave the css files and all but when i changed the css file, the changes were not made in the website

I googled this up and i saw that chrome caches the css file and js file so everytime i make a change in css i have to go to chrome settings and then clear the cache data everytime is there anyway i can fix this without having to clear cache data everytime

[vestal hound]

@ornate lotus ctrl-F5

[ornate lotus]

ohhh thats cool

that will make it easier

When to use generic views?

and should i?

every time?

[versed python]

Generic views are exactly that- generic views. Django provides views for very common problems, like rendering a list of your model instances from database. Or rendering a form.

[valid prairie]

okey, so if i have to create Contact page, where on GET i return page, on POST i get data from form (captcha,email,username,txt) and i send it through GMAIL and i save it to database

?

i should use generic or default

?

[versed python]

You should judge which view you want to use- for example if you need to display 2 forms with 1 FormView, that'd be difficult without tinkering. Then you should consider using fucntion based views (unless this DoubleFormView is to be used more than once, in which case you should create a mixin)

?
@valid prairie Generic View- FormView

[valid prairie]

okay thanks

sooo

90% of views are Generic

i should use

[versed python]

Here's an example if you want one https://github.com/IgnisDa/ocean-pv/blob/master/home/views.py#L18

Yeah most of the views are common enough, so django already provides them

[valid prairie]

okey, but realy i need to provide forms?

i have it coded in html

[versed python]

If you want to use django's inbuilt form verification then yeah. Otherwise your HTML form is okay too

But then you won't be able to use FormView

[valid prairie]

so

witch one in this situation?

[versed python]

I'd prefer the first one

Using django forms that is

[valid prairie]

okey, ill do that

[ionic idol]

what would be the best way to encrypt database fields and documents/photos with django & drf?

[versed python]

@stable kite has a package for that

[ionic idol]

for my documents i use a FileField I do not see that being supported by Django-CryptographicFields

[modest agate]

Hey guys, do you think that i can use vanilla javascript for a project? It is a notes app where you can save them, and i don't know javascript so i need to start learning, would i need to use some library like vue or react?

And, because i'm very new to fronted libraries, what does libraries like vue.js used for?

[stable kite]

@ionic idol try this i have created a package for cryptography in django https://pypi.org/project/Django-CryptographicFields/

@ionic idol i think as File Fields just store your URL for the file so you can use URL field for that

[twilit dagger]

https://codepen.io/pixskull/pen/myPGpm Can someone send me a codepen like this but with a change effect?

[glad patrol]

i create server client model i need to display client info on html page i am using sockets for my model , so can i display my client info on html page if i am using sockets?

[stable kite]

@glad patrol which framework are you using?

[glad patrol]

simple html

[stable kite]

are you storing data in database?

[glad patrol]

no where

it only dsiplay on server console right now

[stable kite]

I think you should store your data somewhere & then render it in html

[ionic idol]

@stable kite thank you

[glad patrol]

i got you so it is possible to that i can dispaly my client data on html if i use socket right

[stable kite]

@ionic idol for what?

[ionic idol]

@ionic idol i think as File Fields just store your URL for the file so you can use URL field for that
@stable kite this

[stable kite]

@glad patrol i don't think socket is the best way for sending data to html

[glass badger]

Can anyone recommend a good Django model template for a blog?

[stable kite]

@ionic idol are you using my package?

[ionic idol]

not yet but i'm considering using it

[glad patrol]

@stable kite i already create server client model using socket now i want to display it on web , please suggest me what can i do .

[stable kite]

@ionic idol ok please share you views about it and create issue on github if you feel so

@glad patrol i think you should create a web socket to share data between html & python

use js for web socket

[glad patrol]

is there any darag and drop html page generateor

[stable kite]

@ionic idol use the package from starting in production otherwise it will raise an error

[outer pier]

hii guys is it possible to update the unfilled fields of existing model when somebody hit another url

using serializer

[modest agate]

hey guys, when do you think that is the right time to setup firebase(the database and the storage) with django? i mean after making the views or before

[stable kite]

@outer pier using update method

[outer pier]

I tried it but not working in my case

[stable kite]

what case?

can you post the code of model & code through which you are updating it

[outer pier]

I am trying to add to this
model:

class CreateBet(models.Model):
    owner = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL,related_name="bets",null=True, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
    bet_name= models.CharField(max_length=255)
    amount = models.CharField(max_length=255) 
    scheduled_datetime = models.DateTimeField(null=True,blank=True)
    accepted_user = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL,on_delete=models.SET_NULL,related_name="accept",null=True)
    status = models.BooleanField(default=False)

the other fields are already created whenever a user hit a url but whenever I try to accept bet with some another url all I want is to update accepted_user and status field .
if somebody knows the ans pls let me know . Thanq in advance
since I want to serialize the the data I have to use serializer and viewset in drf

this is all i wanted

class AcceptBetSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    bet = BetCreateSerializer(many = True , read_only= True)
    class Meta:
        model = CreateBet
        fields ='__all__'
        # def update(self, instance, validated_data):
        #     id = validated_data.pop('id')
        #     object = CreateBet.objects.get(id=id)
        #     object.save(status=True)

this is all i tried

[stable kite]

class AcceptBetSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    bet = BetCreateSerializer(many = True , read_only= True)
    class Meta:
        model = CreateBet
        fields ='__all__'
        # def update(self, instance, validated_data):
        #     id = validated_data.pop('id')
        #     object = CreateBet.objects.get(id=id)
        #     object.save(status=True)

@outer pier this is serializes This will not update your database

@outer pier you need to create a view for it

@outer pier it should not be read-only

[outer pier]

@stable kite

class AcceptBetViewset(viewsets.ModelViewSet):


    serializer_class = AcceptBetSerializer


    permission_classes = [permissions.IsAuthenticated]
    
    
    
    def perform_create(self,serializer):
        print('hii')
        serializer.save(accepted_user = self.request.user,status=True)
    
    def get_queryset(self):
        return CreateBet.objects.filter(accepted_user=self.request.user)

have already created the view

but lemme ask a dbt . If I use put this way then couldnt the user get the data and manipulated. ?

[humble stump]

hello gentle people

i would like to inquire about methodology, the best methodology to construct the back end system of a 'next' feature which queries a sqlite database for another random row in the same table

two things

• should i create a @app_route('/next') or can i do something more intelligent to display it in place in the same html page
• how can i stop it from displaying the previous row again, since this is random, be aware i do have access to the current object as i am displaying it

any tips/hints/help would be much appreciated.

let me know if i've explained this question horribly

the current random object is displayed via a sqlite query in the app_route function definition, then is passed to the front end, if you will.

[unreal bison]

You asked for my two cents. I would suggest examining other similar projects to determine their approaches to solving this type of problem.

Compare, and see which, if any, suits you best.

[humble stump]

thank you for your input, the only issue i have with it is that

often times one functionality is deeply tied into another piece of functionality

and it's a little tough to decipher / amend my code to do so entirely to replicate their methodology

[unreal bison]

When in doubt, I read over the PEP documents. They often provide brain/logic untangling wisdom.

[humble stump]

plus to find a similar example is quite hard

yeah

[acoustic oyster]

hmmmm, did you edit DATABASES in settings.py?

[brisk wadi]

Why would I?

[acoustic oyster]

you would just do that to change your DB settings

so you should NOT edit it after creating a project if you just want a basic project

[brisk wadi]

I have the default settings.py, but like, what does db does with startapp?

so you should NOT edit it after creating a project if you just want a basic project
@acoustic oyster I didn't edit a thing

[acoustic oyster]

ok, hmmmm

maybe try to python manage.py makemigrations and python manage.py migrate?

oh, make sure django is installed and you are in the virtual environment with your django install

that can cause this issue

[brisk wadi]

sorry I went afk

I changed my editor

However, now when I do django-admin startproject project-name I get 'djagno-admin' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Even tho I have django installed

    for cateogry in instance.categories.all():
        #category.count+=1
        print(category.name)
        #category.save()

the print returns this "<django.db.models.query_utils.DeferredAttribute object at 0x0000022F3564B808>"

[marble carbon]

huh

[modest scaffold]

i have found no information of this

[marble carbon]

seems like an XY problem

what is it that you're tryna do?

[modest scaffold]

so basically im trying to add categories to a blog post and every time i add a category to blog i want the count value to increase

so i know the total number of blogs under that catgory

the blog model has a manytomany field with the another model object called category

each category has a count which is an integerField

and after i save a post i want all the categories in that manytomany field to be updated

[marble carbon]

what...no

you don't need a field to save the number of posts under a category

Post.objects.filter(category=cat).count()

ez

or using a related name

Category.objects.get(pk=5).posts.count()

        fields = ['id', 'title', 'code', 'linenos', 'language', 'style']```

Hi guys I'm readying about DRF, but I don't understand what the class Meta does... can anybody explain this please?

Oh I guess it stands for the "metadata" of an object in that class

So within the parent class, you can have multiple subclasses. but the Meta class has metadata such as the fields etc... so if you had an object, x, you could do x.Meta.info for the required info... cool

Can anybody build on this?

I am trying to get these divs into a 9 grid cell for tic tac toe, when I press the btn element. So what I am doing is trying to add the square class from my css to all these divs in javascript, but it seems to only be adding to the board div. Here is my javascript so far. Would this work and what would I need to add to my EventListener?

var btn;
var container;
window.addEventListener('load', () => {

btn = document.querySelector('.btn');

btn.addEventListener('click', e => {
e.preventDefault();
container = document.querySelectorAll('board').className="square";
console.log(container);
})
});

Here is my square css class and board

#board {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 150px);
grid-gap: 20px;
}

.square {
background: white;
border: 1px solid var(--grey);
box-shadow: 0 4px 6px -1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1), 0 2px 4px -1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.06);
border-radius: 10px;
width: 150px;
height: 150px;
font-size: 96px;
font-weight: bold;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}

thanks

[white spruce]

@marble carbon see my question got pushed up

welcome back though

hope you see it

[marble carbon]

okay so did u post ur question completely should I read it?

[white spruce]

yeah it's complete

I am trying to add the square style to the divs after I click the button that way the 9 grid cells can show up

that's what I am trying to do, hope you understand

because the squares has what the cells should look like to play the game

[marble carbon]

hmm

[white spruce]

I have tried all the stuff I know and the square class just will not add to the divs

the most I got it added to was the board using getElementId

and that does not work correctly

[marble carbon]

okay what if

u added a placeholder class to all those divs and selected then using that placeholder class instead

[white spruce]

oh keep in mind, the css nor html can be touched

only allowed to use javascript

if I could have touch the html and css

I would have been fix this lol

[marble carbon]

lol why not

[white spruce]

said so by the teacher

he got the final say

you know what I can do?

[marble carbon]

Ow

[white spruce]

I have tried ```
querySelectorAll('#board>div').className="square";

thought that would work but nth

[marble carbon]

nah

okay you're doing it wrong

forEach

lemme grab a link

[white spruce]

i got it in my notes, i'll check on it

[marble carbon]

uh wait

is this a graded assignment

[white spruce]

it's a lab to get our practice

but he wants to see it

you can't help me?

I don't see how to use the for loop

[marble carbon]

okay if it's for practice

[white spruce]

but ofc it's gonna be graded

[marble carbon]

what

[white spruce]

I wouldn't be asking

otherwise

[marble carbon]

hmm

I'll only give u a hint then

[white spruce]

I have been trying and I am stuck

cmon man

you can see that I have been trying

[marble carbon]

querySelectorAll("div").forEach

forEach takes a function

[white spruce]

can for each add styles?

remember it's only the board id div

I can't do all divs

[marble carbon]

hmm

wait u want the styling on board or the children of board?

[white spruce]

the children

[marble carbon]

okay then use the #board > div

selector instead

okay nvm u already tried

[white spruce]

exactly man

that's why I am here now

I tried everything I know

was hoping someone could help me fix what I got

been stuck at this point for hours man

[marble carbon]

https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_foreach.asp

so querySelectorAll("#board>div").forEach();

and ur code inside it

[white spruce]

@marble carbon you mind writing inside my code I showed you

I am getting an error still

what exactly are we putting in for each

[marble carbon]

Okay so

querySelectorAll returns the list of all elements

what you're doing won't work

so that list of elements is an array

I told you, you can use forEach to loop through that array

and do what u want

I Can't give u exact code because
