[glacial orchid]

See this

U will get my point

In his case it's just loading time
But in my case the template is not rendering expectedly

And also loading time as well

So?

[plucky tapir]

Would using CBV, admin, just the framework in general for Django be considered as tools? To develop a project

[glacial orchid]

What

[hoary marlin]

@glacial orchid the most I can do is to provide you the server invite of official django server and a server for django developers

[ocean seal]

Which hosting should I use for Django?

[marsh canyon]

I have used both pythonanywhere and digital oceans for my django website, pythonanywhere sets up gunicorn and a web server for you automatically, while in digital oceans and even others like Linode, give you a VM where you have to configure everyhting

pythonanywhere is free for basic hosting

[rough summit]

thx

[marsh canyon]

DO and linode are paid, btw

[native tide]

I heard GCP is good too

I tried using Heroku for my django + react app and it was a nightmare

[left wadi]

Hello, hope you''ll are doing well. Can anyone help me figuring out why my django application is throwing this error.

[marsh canyon]

show me your templates dir

@left wadi

[left wadi]

It is a very simple application, am learning the basics as of now. If anyone can figure out, please do let me know. Thanks in advance!

[marsh canyon]

when you use extends, you need to give the full path to the file from the templates dir

like {% extends "base/base.html" %}

include the folder which the base.html file is in

[left wadi]

I did give the full path, still it's giving error.

[marsh canyon]

{% extends "pages/base.html" %}

@left wadi

[left wadi]

yes, I edited this after you said. Still throwing error.

[marsh canyon]

whats the error now

btw the slash is / and not \

in the return render line

[marsh canyon]

is the folder named pages or page?

[left wadi]

pages

[marsh canyon]

then in the return render statement, it should be pages instead of page

[left wadi]

Thankyou very much.

[marsh canyon]

😄

also

if you look at the error message

django tells you where it looked for the template

under template-loader postmortem

[left wadi]

Yes, I'll keep that in mind 🙂

[marsh canyon]

so there, it said page/index.html but it should be pages

[left wadi]

Yes

[marsh canyon]

so that means you prolly made a mistake while rendering the template

[left wadi]

Yeah

[native tide]

the error is in the error 🙂

[stone wren]

whatever I do, celery still tries to connect default broker url

I useflask_celery

it does not recognize settings object

it's defaulted to amqp://guest:**@127.0.0.1:5672/

[native monolith]

Can I get some help with flask and aws? my web is unreachable, but I have added ports 80 :/

[stone wren]

did you allow the port from aws dashboard?

[native monolith]

yes

[stone wren]

ok what about nginx

[native monolith]

you mean this?

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run(host="0.0.0.0", port=80, debug=False)

[stone wren]

uhm, this can work too, but it's not for production

[native monolith]

have you passed url to celery instance? 😛

[stone wren]

no, it should take parameters from settings

but it does not

[native monolith]

app = Celery("backend",
             broker=broker_url,
             namespace="zoomgif", include=["backend.tasks"])

[low blade]

does django force you to use the ORM to use the doc templating even if you're using a web api for a backend?

it really seems that way

[chilly scarab]

I'm not sure but I think that yes haha

[low blade]

yeah, i've been looking at using fastapi to serve docs instead because of that lol

[indigo kettle]

you don't need to use the orm to use templates

@low blade you just provide context to a view and then the template reads the context

[low blade]

right, but it seems like the context must be a class that inherits from django.db.model

[indigo kettle]

context is just a dictionary

you can have a templateview like

class SomeView(TemplateView):
  template_name = 'my_template.html'
  
  def get_context_data(self, *args, **kwargs):
    context = super().get_context_date(*args, **kwargs)
    context['myvar'] = 'hello world'
    return context

then in my_template.html you can use myvar

that being said, if you are not going to use the ORM and the database integration that django provides, maybe using something else is preferable.

[low blade]

oh i was just missreading then

and yeah, i don't think that im liking the amount of magic that seems to happen in django. i pretty much just need something to spit out html docs and make requests to a backend api for certain things

[indigo kettle]

django has a lot of magic

[low blade]

yeah lol i think if django happens to do something that takes a ton of work to do in fastapi, i'll switch back, but fastapi has been pretty straightforward for me thus far

[trim star]

How do you test multiple types of file uploads in a django application?

I am trying to avoid having to create a test file for each and every supported file format

[trim star]

Is anyone here?

[low blade]

not anyone that knows how to do what you're asking, im guessing lol

[trim star]

Man..

So how do people write their unit tests for file validators in Django

[low blade]

most people don't just sit on discord too though and wait for questions. just need to be patient

[trim star]

I sit and wait for questions

(Did I say that out loud?)

[vestal hound]

why?\

[trim star]

Because it is 12 different types of supported files

If i had the file content of a valid file then that would be nice

[vestal hound]

if each file has a different format

then it would make sense...

[trim star]

@vestal hound So I guess the only way is to make physical files and carry them around my codebase?

[vestal hound]

you could store the binary representation as a test fixture

[trim star]

@vestal hound how is that different from a file on disk?

[vestal hound]

practically, not at all

[trim star]

Ok thanks

[torpid pecan]

I am trying to create an html element based on the number of objects I have in a list(python). Does this have a name or am i thinking about this totally wrong? I am very new to web development.

[surreal harness]

is anyone here good with nested serializers with the DRF? I'm having an issue with getting the views to display the way i would like

[plucky tapir]

With django is there a way to delete and create from different tables at the same time? Class based views

[sacred gull]

like a list of five things and you want them all to be in separate <p> tags?

[torpid pecan]

yes

[sacred gull]

you'd do that with the django template language loop thingy

[torpid pecan]

Thanks. I will look into it.

[sacred gull]

https://tutorial.djangogirls.org/en/django_templates/
imo one of the best resources for a quick look

[stuck swift]

Hey I'm building an flask app where each user has their own calendar that others can book or schedule meetings on. Does anyone know of any packages or apis that would allow one calendar per user? And that would provide the apis for a user to manage their own calendar?

[surreal harness]

If I am writing an API and I have a nested relationship, but I want to be able to have views for both the parent and child, how can I achieve this? Parent has many children, so I want two views. /parent should show the parent's info with many children, and /children should just show the children for the parent that accessed the route (I have implemented this using tokens already)

[stuck swift]

You can have an api like this:
/parent/{parent_id}
/parent/{parent_id}/children
/child/{child_id}

/parent/{parent_id}/children/{child_id} could also be in there.

[surreal harness]

the way that my API is setup is such that I don't use the FK in the route, I just use the token to get the current user. So they can only access their own attributes by using a generic route. In the get methods I just fetch the Parent object using the token. Perhaps this is a bad setup?

so there's no
/parent/{parent_id}

its simply

1. send request to /parent
2. send with token or rejected
3. token contains {parent_id}
4. parent route queries for the parent with {parent_id}
5. returns relevant data

[stuck swift]

@surreal harness is the Token an Auth Token of some sort?

[surreal harness]

yep

[stuck swift]

Wait so how many 'resources' do you have?

[surreal harness]

well let me just convey with the real objects

I have a User and a User has many SocialNetworkAccounts

so going to /me should be able to get all of the relevant user info, there might be some other stuff like email or whatever, but social network accounts will also show nested

going to /socialnetworkaccounts i want to just show the nested social network accounts

basically, a partial amount of that data

the reason being that I want them to be able to update that information in that view, if I sent a POST request to /socialnetworkaccounts with some new info, it should modify only that nested part and touch nothing else

i don't think the primary key being there or not should affect this part of what i want to achieve

since I can already get the specific user object consistently

[stuck swift]

Now is this stricly an API you are building or do your routes return data + HTML

?

[surreal harness]

just some JSON

[stuck swift]

I wouldn't really recommend this

[surreal harness]

and why is that?

[stuck swift]

you can definitely do it like this though

Are you familiar with the RESTful paradigm?

[surreal harness]

maybe not thoroughly

[stuck swift]

In theory one of the drawbacks with your approach is caching. every call to /socialnetworkaccounts is different depeneding on the logged in user so it cant be cached

not a big deal for you use case

[surreal harness]

yeah not worried about that right now but i understand

[stuck swift]

Also its kind of confusing. Because in order to get the backend record/model object you want to interact with you have to make a call to 'current_user()'

Probably going to run into difficulty writing tests for this too

[surreal harness]

right but this prevents some malicious access, no?

for example, if someone is hitting a user object that they shouldn't be hitting, sure it will get rejected

but this prevents that possibiltiy was my thought

[stuck swift]

I'd recommend going with the restful approach, where you essentially encode everything you want to do in the request. Your requests will be idempotent and very easy to test and debug and also make your life easier if you ever leave and comback to development after some amount of time

[surreal harness]

i see

[stuck swift]

I see your argument is around security? But you could simply have ACLs or permissions to handle this instead

[surreal harness]

ok sure, i mean, i'm a noob so idk

can you link something regards to how we should structure using the RESTful approach?

is it some paradigm for setting up proper api routes?

[stuck swift]

Ok gotchya

Without understanding the full context of your app, like how much time you want to spend on it, who's going to use it, if its for work/business/fun etc I can't speak to the optimal 'business' approach

[surreal harness]

lets just say i have 3 days

[stuck swift]

however technically speaking this is probably a sub optimal approach. Although It's totally ok and even recommended to go with sub optimal approaches to meet business use cases

Basically the "best" approach technically would be to have a RESTful paradigm.

[surreal harness]

hows it different than mine

[stuck swift]

You have 2 resources, Users, and SocialNetworkAccounts

[surreal harness]

yes

[stuck swift]

Your routes would be this
/User
/User/{user_id}

/User/user_id/SocialNetworkAccount
/User/user_id/SocialNetworkAccount/{social_network_account_id}

/me - alias for /User/{user_id} where user_id == current_user()

We then CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Destroy) each route with the HTTP verbs (POST, GET, PUT/PATCH, DELETE) respectivley

So if you want to add a social network account to user 5,
POST /User/5/SocialNetworkAccount with some JSON data in the body

If you want to remove a social network account 12 from user 5
DELETE /User/5/SocialNetworkAccount/12

If you want a list of all SocialNetworkAccounts on User 5
GET /User/5/SocialNetworkAccounts

You can also have the routes:
/SocialNetworkAccount
/SocialNetworkAccount/{social_network_account_id}

But I think for your use case this isn't needed.

Now you also want to limit what users can CRUD (create, read, update, and destroy) certain records. So you will need to add checks in your routes to verify that the user_id in the route is equal to the current_user(). If not, return a 401

Of course with each request you are also including the token. probably in the header.

Does this make sense?

[surreal harness]

im digesting this yeah

ok yeah, this makes sense to me

using the viewsets i can just create routes for the specific children and have the linked nested serializer, and then update those individually

in terms of limiting what the users can CRUD there's no generic way to do this right? i just need to have some is_valid method to check the fields that I care about i'm assuming

but yeah I understand thanks

@stuck swift can I ask you about the caching? Are you saying that it is easier to cache results if there are PK routes for the api?

[stuck swift]

Hey my b made dinner.

[surreal harness]

np

[stuck swift]

Sort of yeah. For your app it may not really matter much, but in general if more users had access to more resources then yes. For example

If your app had no Read only restrictions and every user could view every other users list of SocialNetworkAccounts, then the URL
/User/5/SocialNetworkAccount
would always return the exact same thing (unless this list was modified of course)

this means it could easily be cached. However a custom route like /socialnetworkaccounts would always change depending on the logged in user.

[surreal harness]

true, and if i wanted to prevent every user from being able to see every other user I could still do that by having some object level permissions I guess

the thing I'm running into now is, for example, if I want to update an individual user's socialnetworkacccount, I can arbitrarily edit an object that isn't mine by providing some random Id or whatever, which is really bad

[stuck swift]

Here's a good article I just pulled up on RESTful api desgin and caching
https://www.fastly.com/blog/optimise-api-cache-improved-performance

[surreal harness]

ok cool, thanks

[stuck swift]

Object or route level.

Which web framework are you using?

[surreal harness]

Django

unfortunately i don't think I have enough time to change the route levels, so I'm going to have to go with the generic /socialnetworkaccounts route like I was saying before

I can add individual checks on the PATCH method but it seems very...ungeneric

i mean this is baby's first API dev anyway so

[stuck swift]

for your routes you want to add a check for each UPDATE or CREATE route that looks at the current user and the id in the URL. Basically.
if current_user().id != user_id
throw 401

past your UPDATE route and I'll have a look

[surreal harness]

yeah that makes sense if I had the id in the URL

ok

[stuck swift]

Also if you wanted to be l33t you'd create a python decorator to decorate the routes where the url id must match current user id, assuming this is a common thing.

Also another benefit of the RESTful routes are that they follow a "Pattern". software eng is all about "Patterns".

Patterns allow you to abstract things and ultimatley wirte less and less code.

[surreal harness]

def partial_update(self, request):
    if not request.data.get('id'):
        return Response({"message": "object id not specified"}, status=status.HTTP_404_BAD_REQUEST)
    user = get_user_from_token(request.auth) # helper method
    user_social = UserSocialNetworkAccounts.objects.get(id=request.data.get('id'))
    serializer = UserSocialNetworkAccountsSerializer(user_social, data=request.data, partial=True)
    if serializer.is_valid():
        serializer.save()
        return Response(serializer.data, status=status.HTTP_201_CREATED)
    return Response(serializer.errors, status=status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST)

that first check is specifically because like you said im not using the id in the route, so I need to check for it inside of the object being passed in to the request, but if I had the PK level routes like you said it wouldn't be necessary

[surreal harness]

yeah i was thinking about using the permission_classes thing to check for that actually

[stuck swift]

where do you map the url to this function?

[surreal harness]

in my urls.py I have something like this

path('sns', UserSocialNetworksViewSet.as_view({'put':'partial_update'}), name='sns')

[stuck swift]

ok 1 sec, I've never actually used Django

[surreal harness]

I know that partial updates should be done in patch actually, maybe we will change that

oh yeah...Django has a lot of specifics so it might be a bit hard to understand. not sure

[covert kernel]

how can i only give a django group access to a page and not to the others.

like only the ppl in the grp blog writers have access to page "New Post"

[stuck swift]

@surreal harness
so is '/sns' the actual url that maps to te partial_updated function?

[surreal harness]

yeah, there's a get method too actually

[surreal harness]

in the view method, check request.user and check their groups. if the group id does not match what you want, redirect them to an error page or something instead of the New Post route

something like

def new_post_view(request):
    user = request.user
    if user.group_id != BLOGWRITERS_ID:
        return redirect("somewhere else")

[stuck swift]

Try changing it to
path('user/(?P<value>\d+)/socialnetworkaccounts', UserSocialNetworksViewSet.as_view({'put':'partial_update'}), name='sns')

[surreal harness]

I want to and will in the future, but I think I can't right now

[stuck swift]

Then add a paramter "value" to the partial update funtion. It might have to be a named param not sure

[surreal harness]

unfortunately the mobile developers define the API spec and for 1.0 we have to do it as they say

[stuck swift]

ahhh

fire their asses then

they fked up lol

[surreal harness]

but I get the idea. basically it is better in general to have PK in the routes than to not

hah

you know how time crunches are

[stuck swift]

Yeah. There are so many reasons why too. They become very apparent with larger apis.

If you have 150 models and dozens of relationships across these models you'd quickly realize doing it the RESTful way is a no brainer

[surreal harness]

yeah. i might go aggro and just demand that we have object ids in the routes

[stuck swift]

escpecially when you get into complex permission/ACL usage

[surreal harness]

it also makes the implementation quite annoying too

[covert kernel]

class CreatePostView(LoginRequiredMixin, View):
    template_name = 'blog/new_post.html'

    def get(self, request):
        form = BlogPostForm()
        user = request.user
        if user.group_id != BLOGWRITERS_ID:
            return render(request, self.no_permission_template_name)
        return render(request, self.template_name, {'form': form})

    def post(self, request):
        form = BlogPostForm(request.POST)

        if not form.is_valid():
            messages.error(request, 'Invalid form', extra_tags='dnager')
            return render('create_post')

        post = form.save(commit=False)
        post.user = request.user
        post.save()

        return redirect('blog_post', post_id=post.id)``` like this?

[gaunt marlin]

@covert kernel you can write a custom decorator for that group and add to the view, also check in the template the user group name to show it or not

[stuck swift]

If they look to increase who can access routes and want to add more models an relationships requiring they conform to REST it totally within scope and reasonable.

[surreal harness]

yeah I agree

what is ACL btw?

[gaunt marlin]

@covert kernel you can take a look at this example https://medium.com/@MicroPyramid/custom-decorators-to-check-user-roles-and-permissions-in-django-ece6b8a98d9d

[covert kernel]

thanks!

lemme have a look

[stuck swift]

ACL means permissions on a resource. I think it stands for Access Control List. So basically an ACL defines who can access something.

[surreal harness]

oh right gotcha

[stuck swift]

So you could set permissions on who can READ SocialNetworkAccounts via an ACL on the SocialNetworkAccount Model.

[covert kernel]

@gaunt marlin something like this?

def is_member(user):
    return user.groups.filter(name='Member').exists()

[stuck swift]

I think it's a more generic way of saying "Permissions"

[native tide]

Anyone know the structure for a nested for loop inside a for loop with jinja?

        {% for result in results: %} 
*other code here* 
{% endfor %} {% endfor %}```
prints a lot

cant figure out why

[gaunt marlin]

@covert kernel use can use the existed user_passes_test decorator to implement it easier

from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required, user_passes_test

user_member_required = user_passes_test(lambda user: user.groups.filter(name ='Member').exists(), login_url='/') # redirect to other path

def member_user_required(view_func):
    decorated_view_func = login_required(user_member_required(view_func))
    return decorated_view_func

@member_user_required
def index(request):
    return render(request, 'index.html')

like so

[covert kernel]

lemme try

[gaunt marlin]

@native tide is results data in i?

[covert kernel]

@gaunt marlin how can i do that on a class?

[gaunt marlin]

why do you need to use a class? @covert kernel

oh the views class?

[covert kernel]

class CreatePostView(LoginRequiredMixin, View):
    template_name = 'blog/new_post.html'

    def get(self, request):
        form = BlogPostForm()
        user = request.user
        return render(request, self.template_name, {'form': form})

    def post(self, request):
        form = BlogPostForm(request.POST)

        if not form.is_valid():
            messages.error(request, 'Invalid form', extra_tags='dnager')
            return render('create_post')

        post = form.save(commit=False)
        post.user = request.user
        post.save()

        return redirect('blog_post', post_id=post.id)

yes

[native tide]

@gaunt marlin i is just the integer between 1-11. I get the output of both results but I get 11 copies of said output

[gaunt marlin]

@covert kernel take a look at this https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/class-based-views/intro/#decorating-the-class

[native tide]

in python a for loop after a for loop is supposed to run output per parent for loop, right? Is that not how it is in jinja?

    for n in loop:```

i
n```

[stuck swift]

@native tide What do you actually want? Your telling the inner for loop to run 11 times? Is this intended?

[covert kernel]

user_member_required = user_passes_test(lambda user: user.groups.filter(name ='Blog Writers').exists(), login_url='/') 
decorators = [login_required, user_member_required]

@method_decorator(decorators)
class CreatePostView(LoginRequiredMixin, View):
    template_name = 'blog/new_post.html'
    def get(self, request):
        ...
    def post(self, request):
        ...```

how can i pass th<e user in th<e decorators @gaunt marlin ?

[native tide]

@stuck swift I need to add a number next to each output of results

usually a loop in a loop works

[gaunt marlin]

@covert kernel it should get auto get request.user if you applied the decorator to a class, no need to pass anything

[stuck swift]

@native tide can I see your full code?
Also is it just a number from 1-11?

[gaunt marlin]

@covert kernel use custom one like so

@method_decorator(member_user_required, name='dispatch')
class CreatePostView(LoginRequiredMixin, View):

[covert kernel]

what does " name='dispatch" do?

[gaunt marlin]

@covert kernel
you use it if you apply to the whole class instead of method in the class
Or, more succinctly, you can decorate the class instead and pass the name of the method to be decorated as the keyword argument name:
explained in the docs

[covert kernel]

oh ok! thanks alot, u rock!

[stuck swift]

@native tide can you take advantage of the builtin enumerate function and remove the outer for loop with the range?
{% for i, result in enumerate(results): %} *other code here* {% endfor %}

[native tide]

@stuck swift thanks for the help, your idea helped me find this, which provided a solution https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20233721/how-do-you-index-on-a-jinja-template

The problem was just that it was repeating the full second loop each time, so like instead of 1 a 2 b 3 c I got 1 abc 2 abc 3 abc, if you know what I mean

when the server got the posted file, the files are saved correctly in the storage, but in the API it only saved 1 file like this
```"graphs": "http://127.0.0.1:8000/1991-06-20-mw74-minahassa-peninsula-sulawesi-2.miniseed",```

so how can i set it as a user instance?

[green skiff]

I am not too familiar with that, but maybe you need user__id, with two underscores?

[covert kernel]

ok lemme try

[covert kernel]

TypeError: BlogPost() got an unexpected keyword argument 'user__id'

[green skiff]

Yeah, no, sorry, I really don’t know

[covert kernel]

np, thanks

[native tide]

@covert kernel The user you're trying to input into the ForeignKeyField is not a user instance, it's a string.

1. I created the Django_project folder in my desktop
2. Created a virtual environment named 'venv' inside the Django_project folder
   So far i have a Django_project folder and inside that i have 2 sub folders,(.vscode, and venv)
3. i used Django_project>django-admin start project web_app commad and now i have 3 sub folders in the main folder .vscode, venv and web_app
   is this the right way?

[gaunt marlin]

@worn pier start project will create the django workplace folder, you don't need to create the Django_project folder from the start

[glacial orchid]

@gaunt marlin no bro
I read the doc
What's happening is because it says my email is not registered in the system but I have registered it in settings.py file still not working
Please visit the forum and help🙏

[worn pier]

i read in an article that it is good practice to name your virtual env as venv, to make source control easier, or something like that, so inorder to organise multiple environment with same name it is better to put it in a folder right?, im new to this

[gaunt marlin]

you tried investigate the options that KenWhitesell
told you?

[glacial orchid]

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/auth/default/#django.contrib.auth.views.PasswordResetView
See this

@gaunt marlin yes

He for some reason not responding

[gaunt marlin]

because you didn't post your custom view code and not telling him if the email you posted in settings.py is related to a system user or not

[vocal berry]

@snow estuary

[glacial orchid]

What do you mean by system user?

[static shuttle]

flask or django
What are the pros and cons?

[gaunt marlin]

@glacial orchid your users in user table need to have the email that in settings.py

[snow estuary]

Hello guys i cant get all user input when he sign up from the use table anyone could help! (im using django) Thank you.

User*

[glacial orchid]

Yes
I am one of the user in User model and I have posted my email address in settings.py

[gaunt marlin]

no that not what i mean...
do the users data in your users table has email = the one in the settings.py?

user.email = the one in settings

[glacial orchid]

I don't get you
What I did is EMAIL_HOST_USER = my email
And my email is in users email table
Is there something I am missing

[native tide]

Hi, I want to get the value of average_mki_value average_mki_value = Applicant.objects.filter(project=self).aggregate(Avg('mki_value')) print(average_mki_value) when I print I get this {'mki_value__avg': 208875.0} How can I get just the value (208875.0)?

[glacial orchid]

You are saying that email of a ll the users should be posted in settings.py? When u said user.email=the one in settings

[vernal furnace]

Guys how to use google maps with django

[native tide]

He asked for help not for you to come here

[glacial orchid]

[native tide]

So whats your problem

@glacial orchid

[vernal furnace]

uh

lmao

[glacial orchid]

https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/sending-email-to-reset-password-in-a-blog-app/5478

Visit the forum 🙏

[native tide]

https://pypi.org/project/django-google-maps/ I found this though

[vernal furnace]

I have the same problem @glacial orchid

you have to pay for a port I guess

[glacial orchid]

Not for Gmai I guess

[vernal furnace]

um

[glacial orchid]

If u have read the forum u may understand my problem

I have posted my email in settings.py and I have a user in app with that email but still email is not sent

But no error is thrown

Read this
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/auth/default/#django.contrib.auth.views.PasswordResetView

Perhaps
Email is not registered in system
But I dont understand what this mean
Cause I have done EMAIL_HOST_USER = myemail

[vernal furnace]

not like this

u must import os in settings.py first

then EMAIL_HOST_USER = os.environ.get('myemail')

@glacial orchid

[glacial orchid]

Done that too that's just to hide the credentials not necessary for this to work

[vernal furnace]

Can you tell me what is the error you are receiving?

[glacial orchid]

Have you read the forum and the doc I sent?
If no
Then do that first

[vernal furnace]

The documentation is a documentation

[glacial orchid]

Nope I sent specific

[vernal furnace]

Yeah but I'm reading things blindly without knowing why

it worked for me.

[glacial orchid]

Not for mw

I copied him but

See@covert kernel

[covert kernel]

you might need to allow less secure apps to access your account.

https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255

[vernal furnace]

If the email address provided does not exist in the system, this view won’t send an email, but the user won’t receive any error message either. This prevents information leaking to potential attackers. If you want to provide an error message in this case, you can subclass PasswordResetForm and use the form_class attribute.

[glacial orchid]

When Corey ran server with url Password reset and password reset done
He got an error
I did not
That's where problems began

[vernal furnace]

did u make environment variables roc?

in your system

[glacial orchid]

I did it's working but just in shell

[glacial orchid]

I did

[covert kernel]

do it without environment variables

[glacial orchid]

That's what's happening to me

[glacial orchid]

Did
Not worked

Just tell me how to register an email in system and what this mean anyway

[vernal furnace]

@covert kernel Can you tell me how its working for you? My problem is with the ports, idk how to get free ports >.<

530, b'5.7.0 Authentication Required.

roc

[glacial orchid]

What

[vernal furnace]

since it does not send you any error, are u sure the account you are sending the message to exists?

[glacial orchid]

Yes
It's my personal email address

[vernal furnace]

Oh, because I deleted m from .com and it said "successfully sent the message"

Anw, can you fix my problem 😦

https://gyazo.com/ed61f74eaab10b0b9c27f4dd5ef7b6ca

Do this

I blv gmal is free

[vernal furnace]

nope its not

not anymore

the 587 port was free

[green jewel]

any library for integrating neo4j to flask

[glacial orchid]

Then nthng is free
I went to sendgrid.com
That's also not free
Even it is , the formalities are too complex

@vernal furnace u know about registering email in system

What exactly does this mean

I don't understand

This is why I am not getting any error and it's shown that email is sent like said in doc

[vernal furnace]

idk what that really means

[sand gate]

anyone knows how to use @font-family on css?

cause mine's not working

[glacial orchid]

Not yet with css bro sorry

[near bison]

on django, is it normal to have an app named homepage

[native tide]

@sand gate Yeah, what's the issue?

[glacial orchid]

Why didn't u help me ?
U just faded away

[native tide]

Because I can't help with everything

[glacial orchid]

U know django?

If u do
U can help
If no
No issue

[vestal hound]

you can just ask

[glacial orchid]

No offense

There wasn't any negativity

[vestal hound]

no, I mean that you should just post your question

gatekeeping rarely helps anyone

and "know Django" is a pretty subjective question

[proven saffron]

yeah django is huge

[vestal hound]

you could be asking about something very specific

template interpolation has nothing to do with async access to the ORM, but both are Django

[glacial orchid]

Yeah

Both are different at beginning

[proven saffron]

so what is your question

[glacial orchid]

Mine?

[proven saffron]

yeah

or have you asked already?

[glacial orchid]

https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/sending-email-to-reset-password-in-a-blog-app/5478
Visit

[vestal hound]

@glacial orchid so not many people are going to read a whole forum thread

generally specific, well-defined questions get much quicker answers

just my two cents

[glacial orchid]

Most of it is written here

[proven saffron]

it's not a thread

[dense slate]

What service are you sending email through?

[proven saffron]

and sorry man I don't know how emails work with django I only know the basics and api stuff

[glacial orchid]

Blog app

[dense slate]

What service.

[glacial orchid]

To reset password

[dense slate]

What is the email service in your settings.py?

[glacial orchid]

EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.gmail.com'

[dense slate]

You can't use gmail anymore.

[glacial orchid]

How cmet

Come

[dense slate]

I don't know why, I just know they decided not to allow it to be used that way anymore.

I think it happened like 6 months ago.

Maybe more. I went to mailgun when that happened.

Mailgun is free to some small limit. Enough for errors at least.

I think 1000 emails maybe?

[glacial orchid]

Mailgun?

Wait lemmi see

Nope
It's asking for credit card

Can't give that

[dense slate]

Right, because if you go over your free limit, then they charge you.

That's how most of them work now.

[glacial orchid]

It will charge when u cross 5000 emails a month

Well it's not that important

I am just learning now

I'll see this later

Wait

O have yet another probt

Problem

Wanna hear

?

[dense slate]

You can just post it.

We'll help if we can.

[glacial orchid]

Aight

The problem is.....
I can't work in django without internet
I happened few days ago
Until then django was working fine

Any solution?

The problem is
Loading time takes forever
And template does not render as expected
But with internet
Everything works fine with no problem

[dense slate]

Maybe a dependency problem. Are you importing anything in your html or python from the internet?

Guessing bootstrap?

You can usually download those files and host them locally instead to bypass that problem.

[glacial orchid]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52304811/how-to-fix-massive-lag-on-django-development-server
This problem
Matter of fact is that it's answer is not even on stack overflow 😂

[glacial orchid]

Nope

I told u it worked fine
I did nothing and this happened out of nowhere

Believe it or not

I just started my pc and saw this

[dense slate]

So when you're offline, it loads differently or it does not load at all?

[glacial orchid]

It takes forever to load
And renders like shit

[dense slate]

What about the rendering changes? Is it just your css?

Meaning, does your content render, just without styling?

[glacial orchid]

I dunno
It's just weird render

Wanna be frnd?
I'll share more data on this with u

[dense slate]

If you give more details, it will be easier to debug the problem. Try to explain how the render is different.

[glacial orchid]

I am not on my pc atm
That's why I asked u wanna be?

[dense slate]

Or screen shot the difference.

Come back and post when you can then.

[glacial orchid]

Aight

[dense slate]

Just @ me.

Will try 😀

[thin dome]

man

how to use if funtion in django like if <option></option> == 1y:

[glacial orchid]

{% if....%} but don't use Colin(:) in that code block

[thin dome]

ok but its not working

[glacial orchid]

Explain wt u wanna do

[thin dome]

if the user choose 1y member ship then it will show 720$ and 6m:360$ and 3m:180$ and 1m:60$

how to do this?

[native tide]

JS

[glacial orchid]

Suppose u coded user_input = input()
So you can do
{% if user_input == 1y %}
720$
{% endif %}

[native tide]

You can't hot-reload your website on an option-selection with Django templating, you can only refresh the page with the price if the user submits a POST request with a form.

[vague root]

Hello bro

[glacial orchid]

U mean making a form for this pricing?

[sacred gull]

is brython actually used or is that more of a gimmicky-kind of thing?

[native tide]

@glacial orchid He had an <options> tag, so I assume he wants to change a different price on each selection. That's a JS task

[glacial orchid]

Okay
Dunno JS
Sorry to interfere 😌

[glacial orchid]

Yo

[native tide]

Also this wouldn't work because it's Django... there is no access to the terminal for the user:
Suppose u coded user_input = input()

[glacial orchid]

I thought that would work
I need a lot to learn from you guys

[native tide]

@thin dome You could use this:

<select onchange="JS function here()"> </>

And that JS function can refresh the page with the updated price...

[glacial orchid]

I had posted a problem in my django
Wanna hear?

[silver tinsel]

can i ask for some help with css here too? 😄

or maybe does anybody know a server for stuff like that?

[native tide]

Yes... but don't ask to ask, just ask the question

[glacial orchid]

Lol😂

[native tide]

it wasn't a joke

[glacial orchid]

Oops

[silver tinsel]

i created a footer
like how can the size of the footer or the height adapt to the amount of lines that are in the footer? you know what i mean?

currently the text just gets cuttet away and i cant scroll down

should i post my css code?

[glacial orchid]

Yeah

[silver tinsel]

!pastebin

[glacial orchid]

It will help

[silver tinsel]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/fuluboduxe.css

[native tide]

you have overflow:hidden, do you know what that means?

[silver tinsel]

oh well i can guess what it means 😄

[thin dome]

no it was css

[silver tinsel]

i jsut followed a tutorial and then started changig stuff for my purpose

[thin dome]

no javascript used in it

[silver tinsel]

what does it have to be?

[glacial orchid]

In your code?

[thin dome]

yes

[glacial orchid]

Didn't look like just css

[thin dome]

yes its css

[silver tinsel]

okay so if i set overflow on scroll i can scroll now in the footer

is there a way so i can scroll on the page?

[thin dome]

but the file is in .html

[native tide]

Well, just remove it? Search up what overflow does to understand what it does

[silver tinsel]

if i remove it it changes nothing :/

i will look it up

[native tide]

That's because you have a set height...

Anything over the height (130px) will be cutoff if overflow is hidden

[native tide]

what are you talking about 🤔

[thin dome]

css file

[glacial orchid]

Makes no sense to me

[thin dome]

not js

[native tide]

What is

[glacial orchid]

Css is just for styling

[thin dome]

thats not js

only css and html

[native tide]

the onchange attribute takes a JS function.

[silver tinsel]

yea i will just make it higher than xD

[native tide]

Or just remove it...

[thin dome]

what?

[silver tinsel]

lol

yea true that works

just started yesterday with css

🙈

[native tide]

Read the code again, onchange takes a JS function. JS can be intertwined with HTML

[thin dome]

ok i understund i think

[native tide]

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

You need to understand the event handler, onchange also

And know what it does,

[thin dome]

ok thanks sir

[native tide]

When you select a new option within the select, the onchange function will run and do whatever you want it to, such as updating the price... but that functionality is your job

[thin dome]

ok sir and too

[glacial orchid]

Intervened?

[thin dome]

thx too

[native tide]

There was no need to ping me for that, intertwined. JS and HTML can be in the same file.

[glacial orchid]

Don't be mad

[native tide]

No one is mad herre

[glacial orchid]

Just saying bro

Btw

U didn't answer me

I can't use my django in offline mode now

[hot kraken]

Is django installed in your env?

[glacial orchid]

Internet is needed to load fast and Template render

[hot kraken]

You likely added some embed code.

Which uses other libraries like bootstrap

[glacial orchid]

I did nothing
I just started my pc and saw this

Did nothing to code

[hot kraken]

Can you send the errors?

[glacial orchid]

Will post here later

[hot kraken]

K

[glacial orchid]

Not on my pc rn

@hot kraken
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52304811/how-to-fix-massive-lag-on-django-development-server

[native tide]

are you using virtualenv

[glacial orchid]

Nope

[native tide]

well there's your solution most likely

[glacial orchid]

My django was working fine
That happened suddenly

Without me doing anything

[hot kraken]

@glacial orchid have you used any image or request with links?

Create a new template and try loading it. Just a clean hello world template

[glacial orchid]

Oh!!
I did nothing
I was working in windows shell
And my pc got turned off due to electricity prblm
And when I opened my pc and there wasn't internet at that time
I saw that happening
And from then
It's happening whenever there isn't net

[hot kraken]

And check if it takes long also

That should not cause any problem. But try to reboot your pc

@glacial orchid

[glacial orchid]

Oh

[hot kraken]

Whats the reault of a clean template?

[glacial orchid]

Didn't try that

[hot kraken]

Try it. If it works then django is all right. Problems with your template.

And if not then create a new django project and paste the code

In it

[glacial orchid]

Then why is everything alright when internet is available

[hot kraken]

Bc of links.

Django is trying to hit links for a time.

And thus its becoming slow

[native tide]

why discord oauth2 works locally but cannot be handled on heroku?

clicking Authorize sends back to the authorization page

by authorization page I mean the discord's prompt

[hot kraken]

I dont know about heroku that much but it works perfectly on aws

It should work on that also

[native tide]

I tried aws just a few min ago but it seems very complex and I failed to deploy

[hot kraken]

Go through the docs.

[native tide]

there is nothing appearing on my logs on heroku I see the requests but it's causing an infinite auth loop

[hot kraken]

It covers everything.

[native tide]

docs are outdated

from 2016

[dense slate]

That's just a vague question, @native tide . Oauth is inherently complex (not really but getting it setup can be).

And every situation you use it in needs to be tested for that one setup.

Unless you have concrete examples, you just need to keep debugging.

[native tide]

it's working locally and I have set up all error handlers

[hot kraken]

I followed docs and some code on stackoverflow

Ot wirks

Works

[dense slate]

Your user successfully registers locally?

Ok, so you need to make sure you're using a live key for production. That's one difference.

Do you know anything about where it's getting stuck?

[hot kraken]

Check the discord auth allowed lists if you have enabled

[native tide]

no

[hot kraken]

I faced same on twitter

[dense slate]

Ok well then that makes it hard for us to know. 🙂

Put some stuff in your django to write to your logs/terminal and see what doesn't show up.

[hot kraken]

Log in with twitter was working locally but not on aws

[native tide]

there are no errors on logs

[dense slate]

Print lines in your code.

See where something doesn't print.

[hot kraken]

Is any access or request deny message?

[silver tinsel]

hey,
if i have a html file witht he footer and a navbar and stuff and i want it to be shown on every other page. how could i do that without copy pasting the code on every other page?

[hot kraken]

Use a {% extends "base.html" %}@silver tinsel

[native tide]

OAUTHLIB_INSECURE_TRANSPORT this was set to true might this be the cause?

[silver tinsel]

but then it gets loadad as an extra window

[dense slate]

@silver tinsel You should read up on how extending templates works in Django. The Django docs are pretty clear about how templates work.

[hot kraken]

I dont think you should turn it off

[dense slate]

@native tide That allows you to work locally.

It doesn't have to be off.

[silver tinsel]

currently i am just doin a simpl html css website without any backend

[native tide]

I now authorise and it sends me back to here

[dense slate]

But the frontend on Django work a specific way with its templates.

@silver tinsel

Oh, you're not using Django?

[hot kraken]

@native tide check oauth permissions

[native tide]

permissions are these

[silver tinsel]

yea i've done a tutorial with django and everything worked there. but now i am trying to do a simpl website wihtout any backend just html and css

[dense slate]

So is this simple site using Django or not at all?

[silver tinsel]

no its not

[dense slate]

if you want to use the same thing on multiple pages, use include.

lookup html includes

[hot kraken]

@native tide i think i have to give a closer look at ot

[silver tinsel]

okay thanks

[dense slate]

Welks.

[native tide]

to what

[hot kraken]

To your problem

Sorry

I tagged wrong

[glacial orchid]

What link are u talking about

[hot kraken]

Like css or js links

Or any pic

[glacial orchid]

There is no link bro

I am not using bootstrap

[hot kraken]

Can I see your template?

Just the head part

[glacial orchid]

I told u already
I had used django offline many times before

Everyone uses it offline in developing mode

[hot kraken]

Yah. I know.

And so i dont think its djangos problem

[glacial orchid]

I am afraid
I am not my pc rn
U may go to here
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52304811/how-to-fix-massive-lag-on-django-development-server
To understand my feelings

[silver tinsel]

ah yea thats what i want but now i have the problem that its not allowed to reference files that are on your system 😄

[dense slate]

is the site on a server or local?

[silver tinsel]

local 😄

[dense slate]

If you have index.html, and you include navbar.html, it should work.

I'm not sure where you are seeing that error.

[native tide]

issue kinda resolved. i was redirecting back to login on error

[vivid bough]

I can't import one py file into another py file even they are in the same project folder , can anybody help?

[native tide]

from module import x
or
import module

[dense slate]

@vivid bough What else do you know? What error is it giving?

[vivid bough]

No module named error

[glacial orchid]

Check ur spelling

[dense slate]

What's your import code look like?

[glacial orchid]

Got any idea about my issue
Don't wish to bother you much
Just stop me whenever u feel like it

[native tide]

if doesn't work create a folder like "modules" in same directory and then from .modules.module import x

[dense slate]

@glacial orchid I already answered you and you said you aren't at your PC.

[vivid bough]

I will try it out. Thank you.

[glacial orchid]

Oh

U using class base view or function base

[silver tinsel]

i found a solution on stackoverflow 😄

maybe not the best way but it works

[native tide]

@plush heart try to see if request.META['HTTP_REFERER'] gets the url of the page sending the request

Or, print request.headers and see if the origin is there.

and if so you can access it

[dense slate]

I'm confused why you would want to do this based on the directory path?

[native tide]

I now fixed the infinite authorization loops. But now I'm receiving an error that's not resolved

Yeah me too Demi

[dense slate]

@plush heart What's the end goal you want to do? Prevent something, authorize something, or what?

[native tide]

so you have one URL that handles deletions? It sounds like you'd be better off having an API endpoint which you can consume whenever you want to delete a note

[dense slate]

You don't direct users to your urls.py paths instead?

When would you need to do that?

You want to show one link or another, based on where they are on the site?

Well then wouldn't each separate page have different links, depending where they are?

So if I'm at /notes/ versus /other_notes/, each of those have their own page, right?

[native tide]

If you're deleting a note, why can't you redirect to the same URL - wherever you are on the site? That's what I don't understand

[dense slate]

So why would you not have different links on each page?

Or is it a shared page with some kind of javascript affecting the rendering?

Maybe just get a new group. 😄

[glacial orchid]

May I ask a q demo?

Demi*

Autocorrect..

How long have u been doing django

I mean I can't understand any of these thing

Feeling depressed so asking

[dense slate]

2-3 years. Not a lot.

Enough to feel comfortable.

[glacial orchid]

Oh😭

[dense slate]

It takes a lot of work to become good at any language/framework, so don't get down on yourself.

[glacial orchid]

🙏 I respect u

Sir

It's been 3 months in python
And less than a month in django

[dense slate]

I've been there. I know it's hard at the beginning.

It's hard even now. I still get stuck on bugs for hours or days.

[glacial orchid]

Mind If I ask ur age?

Mine is 20 almost

[dense slate]

Probably not a discussion for web_dev. 😄

[glacial orchid]

Np

[silver tinsel]

if you r new to python i dont think django is the best to start with

[glacial orchid]

I got stuck for the whole day on sending email for resetting password but nthng working

[glacial orchid]

Don't worry I have been through hard stuff
I like it that way

That's why I didn't choose flask

Nthng is hard if u have passion

@dense slate
When I am giving my email to reset password
It redirect to password-reset-done view but email is not sent
And matter of fact is that it all happens without creating Password-confirm-view
Any idea?
It shows email is sent but nthng happens

This is the last concept I wish to learn for my blog app

[stable kite]

@glacial orchid are you using django?

[glacial orchid]

Yeah

[stable kite]

@glacial orchid have you set an email to sent mail from?

[glacial orchid]

Yeah
EMAIL_HOST_USER = myemail

[stable kite]

you have to also set password for that account so that you can send it

[glacial orchid]

Did that

[stable kite]

@glacial orchid are you using any 3 rd party package?

[dense slate]

@silver tinsel Why not start with Django? It has most things included, lots of libraries, plenty of tutorials and docs...

It's a great framework.

[glacial orchid]

Nope

[dense slate]

Ah, if you're new to Python... Yea I can see the reason behind that.

[silver tinsel]

yea thats what i meant

[dense slate]

I worked with Python about a year before jumping into any Framework.

[silver tinsel]

django is great for sure

but defently not so easy to undersatnd for a total beginner

[glacial orchid]

Don't worry bro
It depends on person if he wish easy or hard way

[dense slate]

Well, you also want to set yourself up for success.

And not get constantly discouraged.

[stable kite]

@glacial orchid https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/setup-sending-email-in-django-project/

[dense slate]

@stable kite He's trying to use gmail.

[stable kite]

ya i know

[dense slate]

Gmail doesn't work like that anymore.

[stable kite]

what?

[glacial orchid]

What did u do in about 1 year with just python

[stable kite]

i think it works

[winged gull]

WEB DEVELOPEMENT WITH FLASK IS WORTHY AND STILL RELEVENT FOR 3 4 YEARS CAN ANYONE PLZ ANSWER i am noob .

[dense slate]

I had to move to mailgun with its API because using gmail with SMTP no longer was supported.

If there's a way to use gmail, I sure don't know it anymore.

[winged gull]

anyone plz answer

[dense slate]

@winged gull Flask is relevant. If that's the question.

[stable kite]

it works but you need to modify your account settings.Which is not advisable

[native tide]

Who knows the future? 😄 not me

[glacial orchid]

Mailgun needs credit card cant give

[dense slate]

Maybe there are some other free services, I'm not sure.

[native tide]

@glacial orchid are u using this?

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/email/

[winged gull]

demi yes i want to build cv with web development projects ??

[dense slate]

@winged gull Go for it!

[winged gull]

yes bro

[glacial orchid]

Mailgun? No

[silver tinsel]

how can i make my footer stick to the bottom? so if i add a large main part i only see it when i scroll down

[native tide]

Who said anything about mailgun

[glacial orchid]

So

[native tide]

Did you read the link

[glacial orchid]

Yeah k read

[glacial orchid]

I am able to send mail in shell but not in my app

[dense slate]

@silver tinsel I think that's more a CSS question than a python question.. but have you looked at tutorials to do that? Are you using bootstrap?

[native tide]

did you setup your smtp settings

[dense slate]

@glacial orchid What happened to me, when I was using gmail successfully, is that I stopped getting them. They sent sucessfully, but they would not arrive in my inbox.

[native tide]

gmail still works fine with django

[glacial orchid]

I did
A pro prgrmmer said there should not be any problem with me
But still there is

[native tide]

did you enable the settings in gmail

to allow third-party access

[glacial orchid]

From when

[dense slate]

Maybe 8 months ago or so.

[glacial orchid]

Low security app access?

[native tide]

yep

[glacial orchid]

I did

[native tide]

ok so can you show us your smtp settings in settings.py

[glacial orchid]

Even after enabling two factor authentication
And setting up app password nthng works

[native tide]

ok so can you show us your smtp settings in settings.py

[glacial orchid]

EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend'
EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.gmail.com'
EMAIL_PORT = 587
EMAIL_USE_TLS = True
EMAIL_HOST_USER = os.environ.get('User_Email')
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = os.environ.get('User_Password')

[native tide]

and whats your view (for sending emails) looking like

[glacial orchid]

It's passwordresetview.as_view()

Default template
I have my own also

Own template

[native tide]

So you've done something like this?

@csrf_protect
def password_reset(request, is_admin_site=False,
                   template_name='registration/password_reset_form.html',
                   email_template_name='registration/password_reset_email.html',
                   subject_template_name='registration/password_reset_subject.txt',
                   password_reset_form=PasswordResetForm,
                   token_generator=default_token_generator,
                   post_reset_redirect=None,
                   from_email=None,
                   current_app=None,
                   extra_context=None,
                   html_email_template_name=None):

[glacial orchid]

I used class base view
Not this type of view
So no

But I saw am article doing similar thing

an*

I don't blv view has any issue
I think I have somehow not registered my email in the system
And dunno what to do about that according to documentation

Alright
It's 11:31 pm here
See h guys later
Good night

[dry plume]

Hello, where can i find a better host for django?

[latent cosmos]

hi

where can I find object oriented python section?

[dense slate]

@dry plume Better how?

Better than what?

[dry plume]

like unlimited db and some 10 GB storage

[dense slate]

I use DigitalOcean for my servers. You can get pretty good rates there.

[dry plume]

ok

Thanks

I'm getting a strange issue in Django:

Exception Value:     object of type 'int' has no len()

[dense slate]

@swift sky Is that Django?

[lofty portal]

Yup, when creating an object using a Django admin form.

It seems like the inlines model that I'm adding to another ModelAdmin form isn't working properly. It's inserting it into the form with an id of 0.

[vestal hound]

Eyo boys, can someone give me an example of some tasks you had to do for a job interview?

You need to share your code.

I don't even know what that is.

[final steppe]

hello, would someone be how to enter information into a website. Example: I want to connect to my mailbox using a python program. How do I get the program to enter my username and password? thanks you very much!

[gaunt marlin]

you can use selenium for that

[karmic egret]

Is there any place that I can store value in html except using query string?

the data will be store when generate html, not from the user

[final steppe]

I don't know what it's used for at all?

[gaunt marlin]

it's used for automates browsers actions

[final steppe]

imagine that I want to brute force on my mailbox, I have to use the selenium library to be able to try the password that I tell him to try?

[final steppe]

that is to say I do not understand. Do you have an example please?

[vestal hound]

no, you should use some sort of requests library for that

Selenium is used for 2 things, mainly

1. automated browser testing

2. scraping websites that use JS

[karmic egret]

Is there anyway I can hide the query string

When I click this

[final steppe]

shouldn't beautifullSoup be used for that?

[karmic egret]

code:

[vestal hound]

bs4 is for parsing HTML

but how do you get that HTML in the first place?

[final steppe]

I do not understand everything. Sorry! Just so I was looking for a bookstore or something that would allow me to have a typing in a web page. I will learn more about selenium thank you very much 😊

[vestal hound]

okay so

normally

you use your browser

with the keyboard and mouse.

Selenium is a library that lets you control your browser with code

so you can, for example, tell it to click on a button

one use of this is to navigate a website programmatically

[final steppe]

oh it's really cool and powerful

but suddenly we can navigate using buttons or links but if there is a text box how do I fill it if I need it?

[vestal hound]

same thing

give focus to the box and fill it

[dense slate]

Perhaps this channel could use a pin for how to ask questions. It would be helpful to make sure that people asking questions have at least investigated potential solutions and can show the relevant code so we can help in a meaningful way. Can we create some kind of guide or bot command for that?

<@&267628507062992896>

[vestal hound]

probably not a good way to do that

instead of pinging admins, try suggesting it in #community-meta

Hello everyone, I have an api I am calling that returns a very large json object. I have it writing to a file that I am attempting to ingest via FileBeat.

Output of the json result however in order to be read by file beat, it will all have to be on 1 line. How can I json.dump the object to export on just row 1?

Oh. . .

Json.dump(response.text.replace('\n',''), output_file)

[open owl]

hey guys, am stack somewhere. How can i use django session captured in views.py file to the model, like populate the model field the request.session

[glacial orchid]

Mean u want to fill a form and save that in the database?

Does capture implies that?

[versed python]

The syntax is correct but I think Django templating language respects spaces. Try removing all whitespaces after |

[glacial orchid]

I'll try 🙏

I have made spaces😂

[glacial orchid]

Or u wish to capture the data from the database when u open a form?
Explain urself

[open owl]

not a form, just an input value that i have captured and store it in a session. Now i need to populate the model attribute with that session

[hoary marlin]

Hey Guys,
I've been trying connecting My flask app with Mysql db.
The connection was succesful but when I am accepting an input from user it shows error:
TypeError: an integer is required (got type str)

here's my flask code:-

from flask import Flask, request, render_template, url_for, redirect
from flask_mysqldb import MySQL
import yaml

app = Flask(__name__)
db=yaml.load(open('db.yaml'))

app.config['MYSQL_HOST']=db['mysql_host']
app.config['MYSQL_USER']=db['mysql_user']
app.config['MYSQL_PASSWORD']=db['mysql_password']
app.config['MYSQL_DB']=db['mysql_db']
app.config['MYSQL_PORT']=db['port']


mysql=MySQL(app)



@app.route('/',methods=["POST","GET"])
def login():
    if request.method =="POST":
        coachDetails=request.form
        name=coachDetails['username1']
        passw=coachDetails['password1']
        cur=mysql.connection.cursor()
        cur.execute("INSERT INTO CoachData(cname) values (%s)",(name))
        mysql.connection.commit()
        cur.close()
        return 'success'
    else:
        return render_template('reg.html')

@app.route('/show')
def user():
    return render_template('show.html')




if __name__=='__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)

here's my Yaml code:-

mysql_host: '127.0.0.1'
mysql_user: 'root'
mysql_password: 'yash'
mysql_db: 'loginEx'
port: '3306'

here's my MySql table structure:-
+-------+-------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+-------+-------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| cname | varchar(20) | YES | | NULL | |
| cpass | int | YES | | NULL | |
+-------+-------------+------+-----+---------+-------+

it's actually urgent so I would be really thankful.

[timid belfry]

can anyone tell is it compulsory to use serializer on every class in models in django rest framework? do ping me if someone knows

[timid belfry]

watch codewithharry tutoriol as I am not able to understand your code

[timid belfry]

maybe some issue in fetching data

[hoary marlin]

How do I figure that out?

[timid belfry]

share an ss after putting some data in database

[hoary marlin]

I will

[elder jackal]

its not fetching data issue, could you send full traceback of the error?

ah wait

[hoary marlin]

here's the traceback:-https://dpaste.org/OUMv

[elder jackal]

cur.execute("INSERT INTO CoachData(cname) values (%s)",(name))

| cpass | int | YES | | NULL | |

trying to insert str values into int-typed pass probably

nope

full traceback shows your port should be int

in your yaml change port from
port: '3306'
to
port: 3306

[hoary marlin]

I changed the datatype of the cpass column to varchar

[elder jackal]

xD

cant you see the traceback

[hoary marlin]

Trust me I tried this and got this error:-
MySQLdb._exceptions.OperationalError MySQLdb._exceptions.OperationalError: (2003, "Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (10061)")

[elder jackal]

yeah is it running?

telnet 127.0.0.1 3306

[hoary marlin]

no still getting the typed error

[elder jackal]

check the port is open for connections

To display all open ports, open DOS command, type netstat and press Enter.

To list all listening ports, use netstat -an |find /i "listening" command.

thats how you do it in cmd

[hoary marlin]

Okay I don't find any connection with 3360 port

[elder jackal]

try 3306

you have it 3306 in yaml config right

not 3360

[hoary marlin]

Yeah, sorry for the typo

[elder jackal]

ok what you shuld do now is to launch the mysql right

To start the mysqld server from the command line, you should start a console window (or “DOS window”) and enter this command:

shell> "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin\mysqld"
The path to mysqld may vary depending on the install location of MySQL on your system.

[lofty portal]

Anyone running into something like this:?

[cunning birch]

I develop a small e-commerce site and when I add the product to the cart I always have this error

my views.py

my models.py

what I don't understand if I go into the django shell it works

@lofty portal Yes I try with the console and it gives me the Category object but in the views.py it shows me the 404 error

[lofty portal]

Yeah, sorry, I was too quick to respond. That's a generic message just telling you that you shouldn't show the debug in production...

What IDE are you using?

In VScode you can debug your Django app and see the variables when you submit the form. It may show you what the underlying issue is.

[cunning birch]

@lofty portal no I am using sublim text and the main error is: "No Category matches the given query."

[lofty portal]

What's the query? Perhaps that's not matching what you expect it to?

[cunning birch]

@lofty portal I am developing an e-commerce site but when I add a product to the cart I get this error and above I have the images of my code!

[lofty portal]

No need to get snippy. I'm trying to help, and I can see your code.

[mental lodge]

i cant migrate my data to heroku , showing this weird error,plz help me

[lofty portal]

@cunning birch I would highly recommend getting VScode, it's free and you can probably debug the issue using that.

@mental lodge Are you in the correct path when you run that script?

[mental lodge]

yes

[lofty portal]

When you type ls it shows up?

Was it uploading before, or is this the first upload?

[mental lodge]

yes

[mental lodge]

first upload

[lofty portal]

Sorry, I'm just asking generic questions hoping it will spark something for you to figure it out.
I don't use heroku, so I'm not quite sure. I usually just run my own ubuntu server with nginx and gunicorn.

[mental lodge]

have been trying for the past 5 days, got stuck

[lofty portal]

Are you running through a tutorial or something?

[mental lodge]

yeah

[lofty portal]

Maybe try backtracking and going through the steps again to see if you missed something. I do that sometimes and find that there was some little thing I missed.

[mental lodge]

followed corretly ,but i cant find a lead to move further

[lofty portal]

Seems like the heroku server is missing the manage.py from that message.

[mental lodge]

cant find a solution with that tutorial

[mental lodge]

exactly

[lofty portal]

Have you gone on the remote server to see if the project was uploaded there properly?

[mental lodge]

you mean host?

[lofty portal]

Yup

[mental lodge]

yeah its running perfictly

*perfect

[lofty portal]

Ok, so the site is running already for you?

You're just trying to migrate an update to the database for a change you made to a model or something?

[mental lodge]

yeah,i got stuck with that heroku migrate part

[lofty portal]

You can also look at the logs by typing heroku logs --tail, maybe find something useful there.

[mental lodge]

no no the entire project is done , only the site hosting part is pending

[mental lodge]

okay will try this

thanks dude

[lofty portal]

Sorry I couldn't help more.

[mental lodge]

not a problem , thanks anyway

[lofty portal]

This is another tutorial on the whole thing. May be helpful to double check in comparison to the other tutorial:
https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/how-to-deploy-django-application-on-heroku/

[mental lodge]

thanks a lot dude, will check this too

[lofty portal]

or this one, this one seems better(or maybe because I like the site design more...):
https://dev-yakuza.posstree.com/en/django/heroku/

[mental lodge]

will check it

[glacial orchid]

Does deployment Costs bucks?

[dense slate]

@cunning birch I think that's saying that the query you are trying to find (probably the item id), doesn't exist in that table.

So if you're looking for a particular UUID, that id doesn't exist in that model.

@glacial orchid Virtual servers cost money, yes.

But you can get basic ones as cheap as $5/month.

Or even free, like on https://www.pythonanywhere.com
