Yeah React is popular for the frontend w/ Django.

Btw are you using class-based components or function-based components in React?

[haughty turtle]

Class based

[native tide]

gotcha

i'd recommend trying out the function based components though. w/ some react libraries class based components are incompatible

Hi guys
I built a small web server with Flask that connects YouTube PubSub to a Discord webhook.
Now I would like to add commands to subscribe or unsubscribe to a channel. Like "flask youtube subscribe Idh234had" I have seen that Flask even offers CLI command features. Is this possible with a running Flask app or how does this work?

[fallen spoke]

Thank you, so just to be sure, the expected outcome of using IsAuthenticated is to stop users who are not authenticated from accessing api endpoints?

[native tide]

Yep. If a user is not authenticated the browser will return an Unauthorized response status. (401)

Since there are different types of authentication (session, token), you need to set you DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES so that Django knows what type of authentication must be checked.

[fallen spoke]

Just tested it again with postman and it seems to be working, Thank you. Not sure why it was not working before, I might have needed to restart my server.

How safe are JWTs? I looked online and people seem to have mixed opinions on them. what is the standard best practice for having an api backend? cookies? JWTs? something else?

[native tide]

I use token authentication (storing the token via a cookie)

one reason for this is that I can invalidate the tokens while JWTs can't really be invalidated on your end

but I don't really know much about JWTs, when I asked I was told to avoid them at all costs by some pretty senior people.

Hi. Guys I am currently working on a Django project which is a gaming website. (It is for a minecraft server) My client asked me to do authentication with xbox account.
Thank God there is api in python.
But the question is how to integrate this to an Django project.

Here is the website

[chrome coral]

Got it 😀...i know html and css but not that good with js. Will learn it..

[sinful helm]

id probably focus on learning a js framework if u wanna develop a big app or many webapps and get ahead of the game a bit

otherwise, go ahead and develop in vanilla js using dom API

[chrome coral]

Thank you 😀

hello

[warm shoal]

hi

I'm a beginner at django and I need some help

from django.contrib import admin
from .models import Product, Offer


class OfferAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    list_display = ('code', 'discount')


class ProductAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    list_display = ('tag', 'price', 'stock')


admin.site.register(Offer, OfferAdmin)
admin.site.register(Product, ProductAdmin)```

this is a practice that I did

and this is the error I keep getting

  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 991, in _find_and_load
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 975, in _find_and_load_unlocked
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 671, in _load_unlocked

ngo\contrib\admin\sites.py", line 119, in register
    raise AlreadyRegistered(msg)
django.contrib.admin.sites.AlreadyRegistered: The model Product is already regis
tered with 'products.OfferAdmin'.```

can anyone help??

[eternal blade]

Did you register the Products class anywhere else?

[warm shoal]

yep in the modules file

[eternal blade]

I think that why you are getting an error. you have aldredy registered it in another place

[warm shoal]

so shall i not register it?

[eternal blade]

Unregister it from anywhere else you have registered it. It should work

[warm shoal]

yeaaa... it didn't work

[eternal blade]

You cannot register more than one ModelAdmin for the same model (this results in an AlreadyRegistered exception). -google

@warm shoal did it work?.

[warm shoal]

ummmm.... well this is weird... i tried it a couple different times and then exited the server and rewrote what was written before...... i ran the server again to find it working...??

[eternal blade]

Did you get any error

[warm shoal]

nope

though i am confused...

why did it work now if it gave me an error before?

well anyways thanks a lot for your help 😄

[eternal blade]

it sometimes happens to me also. I get get an error but when I run it again the error goes. wierd

[stone wren]

suppose I have list of something like this

[
  0: {id: 5, itemName: "test", quantity: 2},
  1: {id: 7, itemName: "test1", quantity: 1},
  2: {id: 2, itemName: "test2", quantity: 3},
]

how can I convert them to this list? I want to extract quantity

[
  0: {
      quantity: 2, 
      product: {
        {id: 5, itemName: "test"
      },
  1: {
      quantity: 2, 
      product: {
        {id: 7, itemName: "test1"
      },
  2: {
      quantity: 2, 
      product: {
        {id: 2, itemName: "test2"
      },
]

[devout coral]

Anyone know a good way to reference static files with Django?

When not in templates

[quick cargo]

@devout coral doesn't it have url_for?

[devout coral]

I do not quite follow

from django.templatetags.static import static This is what I am currently using @quick cargo But I am getting access denied.

[quick cargo]

Do you mean referencing them in terms of their paths?

[devout coral]

I want the url since it is in S3.

I could download it into temp and then use it but that seems kinda meh.

[quick cargo]

I'm pretty sure django has a url_for function which given X static file name will produce the relevant path for it but I don't entirely get what you want

[devout coral]

You know how in templates you use the static tag to reference a static file and it returns the full url. That is what I need.

I just need the url so then I can use it in reportlab to put it on a PDF.

[quick cargo]

You want url_for then iirc

But note it returns a relative path based of the location of the main file

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55261314/django-url-for-equivalent#55261607

[devout coral]

That is saying to use the method I am using now.... But I get an error.

logo_url = static('\main\\MV_Transportation_logo.png')

That is how I am implementing it in my code.

@quick cargo Any idea on why I would be receiving that error?

[slender flare]

Can anyone suggest me how can I make a django form dynamic. I mean I need to accept a response through a from and then check if the input already exists in the database. If no then I will simply save the response to the database. But if it already exists then I need to make another field(previously hidden input in HTML form) visible within the form along with the data last input pre-filled. I am a newbie in django and it would me nice if someone could help me.

[quick cargo]

If you're on Linux it could possibly due to running it with sudo last time and the files now need sudo?

If its Windows then it's normally only raised if its open in another process

But mostly a shot in the dark

[devout coral]

The thing is all the files are in S3...

Also this is all containerized and it is running on a debian based image.

[devout coral]

You could use ajax to post the form after they edit a field.

[native tide]

maybe you can have a two-step process, so in the view which receives the response of the first form you return a page which shows another form with some fields prefilled so you can implement your logic in the views.

[devout coral]

Good thing about ajax is it is asynchronous so the user would not be waiting and it should be a good user experience

@quick cargo Also, I thought it could be my S3 policy but the static file I am trying to serve is the logo which is being used in the page already.

[quick cargo]

Hmm maybe

Im out of ideas though I'm afraid, don't do much work with S3 and django

[devout coral]

Alright, I will try for a little longer then I will just resort to downloading it and storing it temporarily.

[slender flare]

Thanks @devout coral but I don't know much about Js. Thanks @native tide I will try this out as it is much easier. Later on I will try AJAX to make this async.

[native tide]

great! If you want to try the AJAX-like client-side request approach I recommend fetch API, because it's pretty easy to use:

Hi, not sure if this is the best channel for this since this is a deployment question, but I'm trying to deploy a flask app via uwsgi and I'm having trouble figuring out how to get uwsgi to run as python 3.7. It defaults to 3.6. Has anyone dealt with that before?
All this is happening in a venv:

(venv) ➜ venv python --version
Python 3.7.5
(venv) ➜ venv which uwsgi
/apps/venv/bin/uwsgi

hi everyone, i'm trying to send a post request to my django server using rest through react/axios, but the database never seems to get updated (request succeeds, returns 200 but the database doesn't update when i check on frontend): https://github.com/hanyuone/kanban

django server is on localhost:8000, react frontend is on localhost:3000

request is sent in frontend/index.jsx

sorry if i can't reduce the project down to a minimal example, not exactly sure how to reduce the problem by much since i'm new to webdev

[vestal hound]

check the database through the backend

did it get updated?

[final sequoia]

Not sure how to do that, what exactly do I print if anything

do I set up a breakpoint or smth?

like it does show the request going through for the PUT and GET afterwards when i fetch /api/boards but i'm not really sure how to check the full db

[inland stirrup]

a comment section to a non blog flask application ....any idea how to approach this?

[eternal nimbus]

how do i set up mongo Db ?

ive been struggling with settting it up for sometime now ?

hmmm

[final sequoia]

how do i check it from the backend? where do i put the print/breakpoint/etc.

cause i did check the request coming in and the data all seemed fine, in the views section

but how would i make sure the data is updated after

[vestal hound]

access the database directly

[final sequoia]

How do I do that

[vestal hound]

do you know SQL?

alterantive

alternatively

just run the shell app and query the model objects

[final sequoia]

Yeah I know a little, should I just run the sql commands in shell?

There isn’t a place for me to query as python code is there

[final sequoia]

like i tried displaying the data that was sent and retrieved (console.log in axios in frontend/index.js), the put request seemed fine and the data seemed fine when i printed it out in views.py, but the actual PUT request doesn't actually update the database for some reason

[vestal hound]

yes

there is

look up

the shell management command

[final sequoia]

as in pipenv shell?

[final sequoia]

ok i think the issue might be that PrimaryKeyRelatedField has a specific order and can't be swapped around

hello

can we yse html module in python ?

[open owl]

Show us the code please...models and views

[open owl]

yes, to generate tables and list

[open owl]

use choices in your model then add a default in that field

in your models.py

MY_CHOICES = (
('ORANGE', 'Orange'),
('BANANA', 'Banana'),
)

class Fruit(models.Model):
    fruit = models.CharField(default='MANGO',     
choices=MY_CHOICES, max_length=20)

@steel reef try the code above

[native tide]

@open owl ok

[icy canopy]

@open owl the default is 'MANGO' and you don't have a 'MANGO' choice

How about this:
PROPOSED = 'Proposed' ACTIVE = 'Active' ONHOLD = 'On Hold' COMPLETED = 'Completed' CANCELED = 'Canceled' STATUS = [ (PROPOSED, 'Proposed'), (ACTIVE, 'Active'), (ONHOLD, 'On Hold'), (COMPLETED, 'Completed'), (CANCELED, 'Canceled'), ] status = models.CharField(max_length=9, choices=STATUS, default=PROPOSED, null=True)

[open owl]

dont think if its necessary for default to be in choice. Thats not the point at all

is there a way to "order" a serializers.PrimaryKeyRelatedField? i have a kanban-like application with a bunch of Tasks linked by primary key to Boards, and i want to reorder the Tasks by dragging and dropping

my models:

class Board(models.Model):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=120)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.title

class Task(models.Model):
    board = models.ForeignKey(Board, default=1, related_name="tasks", on_delete=models.CASCADE)
    title = models.CharField(max_length=120)
    description = models.TextField()
    order = models.IntegerField()

    def __str__(self):
        return self.title

my serializers:

class TaskSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model = Task
        fields = ["id", "title", "description", "order"]
        ordering = ["order"]

    class Meta:

I did it's still not able to stage all the files

[hybrid bobcat]

yo so assume i have this folder structure with these files

folder-
     main.py
     foo.py
     foo.json
``` I can read the `foo.json` file inside of `foo.py` , and then import the variable that holds the parsed json value in `main.py` as `from foo import jsonval` .
But now if I move `main.py` outside of the `folder` directory, 

main.py
folder-
foo.py
foo.json
``` I change nothing in foo.py and foo.json except I change the import statement in main.py to from foo.foo import jsonval now, the read file line inside foo.py which reads foo.json throws an no such file or directory "foo.json" which don't really make sense to me, does anyone know why?

#rules don't jump in with your question if one is already going being discussed

[gusty wagon]

Anyone experience in google maps polygon circles in python backend and js frontend?

[native tide]

@native tide why is your STATIC_FILES_DIRS a list? Is that normal?

@inland stirrup I don't think that's a rule.

Also @native tide why is there a backslash here "css\base.css" is that normal too?

Blog.objects.filter(entry__headline__contains='Lennon', entry__pub_date__year=2008)``` I want to loop through a JSON sent through a request, for each item in the JSON I want to add to my filter, how would I go about doing this?

Coders block is not letting me figure this out.

Having an if statement included to check that it is not null

[vestal hound]

what does your JSON look like

[haughty turtle]

{"role":this.state.role, "field":this.state.field, "stack":this.state.stack, "language":this.state.language}

When I load it this is what its going to be

[vestal hound]

so you want e.g.

role=this.state.role, field=this.state.field etc.?

@haughty turtle

[haughty turtle]

In my models I have availabeTag = models.JSONField()

[haughty turtle]

So if availableTag contains all of the values that I am going to be receiving from the dict

[vestal hound]

so you want to filter a JSON field?

[haughty turtle]

yeaup

[vestal hound]

which model

Blog?

[haughty turtle]

Course

But I can change the name at any point in time.

[vestal hound]

...where is Course

okay can you show ALL the relevant models

[vestal hound]

because I see no Course here

and that looks like something from the Django tutorial

[haughty turtle]

course is the Model in which contains availableTag which is a JSONField

[haughty turtle]

it is, was just an example

[vestal hound]

then

well

I would say

when you're asking for help

ask something that is as close to what you want as possible

because at first you didn't mention the JSON field and your model is named something different

anyway, you can access the values of a JSON field using double underscore notation

exactly as if they were chained lookups of a model

e.g. available_tag__role=this.state.role

so what you need to do is remap the keys of the query JSON

and then use ** to spread it into keyword arguments

[haughty turtle]

I mean I would be able to edit it, just need a working example py ContactInfo.objects.filter( data__name='John', data__pets__has_key='dogs', data__cities__contains='London', ) from the django docs is similar to the other filter method I sent

[vestal hound]

the point is

it's harder for people to understand what you want

if you don't explain yourself clearly?

[haughty turtle]

ok so my keys I need to make sure matches how filter would look for the value?

[vestal hound]

like your original question suggested 1. you have a Blog model and 2. you were filtering on the model's fields, as opposed to the contents of one of its JSON fields

[vestal hound]

yes

[haughty turtle]

{data__role:this.state.role, data__field:this.state.field, data__stack:this.state.stack, data__language:this.state.language}

but how would it convertdata__role:this.state.role to data__role=this.state.role

[haughty turtle]

and all my other key values?

[vestal hound]

like I said

[vestal hound]

this

[vestal hound]

do you know how ** works when passing arguments to a function?

[haughty turtle]

https://thispointer.com/python-how-to-unpack-list-tuple-or-dictionary-to-function-arguments-using/

I have been reading this

I know it unpacks it, but I do not see how ** convert key:value to key=value

Hi guys i have a problem in flask i tried to get subdomain effect like subdomain.domain.com do you know how to do it

[forest talon]

That is not a problem with flask, that is a server responsability

You can setup that in NGINX

[open owl]

let me see your urls.py

[copper lagoon]

using flask, domain.com/manage/guildID/control/ makes stuff like not clickable, like stuff works, but like when u click stuff, it doesnt do what its supposed to, but when i do domain.com/manage/guildID it works
like without the 3rd argument

Can someone tell what's wrong with this jQuery code?

var arr = [5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0];
    $(".countdown").each(function (index) {
      console.log(index);
      $(this).html(arr[index]);
    });

// Logs `0`
// h1 with a value of 5.  No rewritting

/* HTML
<h1 class="countdown"></h1>
*/

I just want a basic countdown, counting from 5 to 0.

[visual fulcrum]

I would help u but jquery is not my thing...

[gaunt marlin]

firstly, i haven't touch javascript for a long time but shouldn't you be using forEach() instead ?

second you can just use sleep(1) in each iteration to wait and run html()

[barren swift]

I think forEach() is not included in jQuery but I figured it out anyways. I used setInterval() and conditional statements.

[gaunt marlin]

that sound like much more hard work then using sleep()

[barren swift]

I didn't know about sleep() lol.

[gaunt marlin]

well it's basic stuff in JS 😕

[barren swift]

var arr = [5, 4, 3, 2, 1];
    var i = 0;

    timer = setInterval(function () {
      if (i < arr.length) {
        $(".countdown").html(arr[i]);
        i++;
      } else {
        clearInterval(timer);
        $(".countdown").remove();
        $('<img src="https://i.gifer.com/7b7F.gif" id="rickroll-img">').appendTo("body");
      }
    }, 750);

[gaunt marlin]

lol you can just set default value of i =5 or something, loop each and i-- . Don't even need to use array

[barren swift]

Yeah I know

thanks anyway

[quick bay]

Hey, I am new to web development and Django and am trying to make a login/register system. I do not want to use Django's built in system, so that I can learn and also understand how to do the same for other apps I create in the future. I have a template created but am unable to find a way to save the data a user enters. It would be great if someone could help me out with saving this data. (I am using bootstrap)

Template(register.html):
<nav class="mx-auto card w-25" style=text-align:center;border:none;padding-top:12%>
<form action="." method="POST">{% csrf_token %}
<h3 style="padding-bottom: 10px">Register</h3>
<div class="form-group">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="exampleInputEmail1" aria-describedby="emailHelp" placeholder="Username" required>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<input type="password" class="form-control" id="exampleInputPassword1" placeholder="Password" required>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<input type="password" class="form-control" id="exampleInputPassword1" placeholder="Repeat Password" required>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg btn-block">Register</button>
</form>
<p style="text-align: left">Already registered? <a href="{% url 'user_system:login' %}">Login</a></p>
</nav>

views.py:
return render(request, 'user_system/register.html')

models.py:
class userss(models.Model):
username = models.TextField()
password = models.TextField()

[gaunt marlin]

@quick bay Django have a good docs on how to handle data with form https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/forms/

[quick bay]

I will read through once again, but last time I did I didnt find anything useful

[gaunt marlin]

if you want your own authentication system, i'm not recommend because that is for advance uses, the base django authentication perfectly handled it already https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/auth/customizing/

[open owl]

where is your forms.py file ? and your views.py is incomplete as well

i bet you should learn how to handle forms first.....youtube, google, read some docs

[quick bay]

Alright thanks

[gaunt marlin]

@quick bay you probably missed this part in that docs where they described how to get data from your form

from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
from django.shortcuts import render

from .forms import NameForm

def get_name(request):
    # if this is a POST request we need to process the form data
    if request.method == 'POST':
        # create a form instance and populate it with data from the request:
        form = NameForm(request.POST)
        # check whether it's valid:
        if form.is_valid():
            # process the data in form.cleaned_data as required
            # ...
            # redirect to a new URL:
            return HttpResponseRedirect('/thanks/')

    # if a GET (or any other method) we'll create a blank form
    else:
        form = NameForm()

    return render(request, 'name.html', {'form': form})

[quick bay]

Thanks a lot @gaunt marlin. I'll read through and try making some changes

[gaunt marlin]

@quick bay in your html the form need to have action url to your views url -> this part <form action="." after that you can get the data from request.POST['your_input_name'] in the views.py

[native tide]

someone know how to make a web server

a secured one?

dm me

i need it rn

[vernal furnace]

man why this is not working

def todo_add(request):
    added_date = timezone.now()
    content = request.POST["content"]
    print(added_date)
    print(content)
    return render(request, 'todo.html')

that was views.py

<form action="todo/" method="post" class="form-inline">
                <input type="text" name="content" class="form-control mb-2 mr-sm-2" placeholder="Jane Doe">
                <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary mb-2">Submit</button>
            </form>

that was todo.html

It says theres problem in views.py

content = request.POST["content"]

MultiValueDictKeyError

[dense slate]

what's your forms.py look like @vernal furnace

and what's the whole traceback

[vernal furnace]

@dense slate I dont have forms.py

I have models.py

[dense slate]

You need a forms.py to validate your form.

[vernal furnace]

ohh man the tutor made a models.Model

lemme make a form

[dense slate]

@vernal furnace https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/forms/#building-a-form-in-django

You'll also need your view to handle it correctly. That doc should have the info you need.

[vernal furnace]

the problem is not here

When I click submit

I want it to reload the page

the tutor made it reload the page in a stupid way

it doesn't work properly to me

[dense slate]

reload the page with new information?

[vernal furnace]

no the same page

[dense slate]

So just page refresh when you press a button?

[vernal furnace]

yea(for now)

I just want to test if input is receiving data or not

[dense slate]

You could just link the button to that page.

so <a href="{% url 'your_url' %}"><button>Press Here</button></a>

or just do:

def todo_add(request):
    return render(request, 'todo.html')

and link the button to the function

[vernal furnace]

wait

@dense slate that's how views.py looks rn

from django.shortcuts import render
from django.views.decorators.csrf import csrf_exempt
from django.http import HttpResponse
from .forms import todo
from django.utils import timezone

@csrf_exempt
def todo_add(request):
    added_date = timezone.now()
    content = request.POST.get("content", False)
    print(added_date)
    print(content)
    return render(request, 'todo.html')

and that's forms.py

from django import forms

class todo(forms.Form):
    added_date = forms.DateTimeField
    text = forms.CharField(max_length=255)

{% extends 'base.html' %}

{% block content %}
    <div class="row mt-4">
        <div class="col">
            <h2>Add Item</h2>
            <form action="add_todo/" method="post" class="form-inline">
                <input type="text" name="content" class="form-control mb-2 mr-sm-2" placeholder="Jane Doe">
                <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary mb-2">Submit</button>
            </form>
        </div>
    </div>
{% end block %}

that was todo.html

[dense slate]

You're missing things you need from forms.py and your view. Go look at the link I sent you.

[vernal furnace]

ok

[native tide]

Please I need help I maked a multiple choice quiz without a GUI but I need to make one that has a GUI?

if im looking into start python web developement, what other languages do i need to know except python

and html

[dense slate]

none, but css and javascript will be helpful sometimes.

[vernal furnace]

so demi I made some changes

but its still not working

[native tide]

hm ok, also do you know any docs and yt's that i can watch to learn python website dev

[vernal furnace]

Do u want to see?

[dense slate]

Djangogirls tutorial is really good. One of the first ones I did.

[native tide]

Should i do Django or Flask

[dense slate]

Your choice. Django has more stuff built-in.

Flask is just leaner. I don't know much about Flask.

[native tide]

k

would you recommend Django i guess

[dense slate]

I really enjoy using it, yea.

[native tide]

ok.

[vernal furnace]

You can easily find job with django too

[native tide]

oo ok

[vernal furnace]

oh god im so lost

https://gyazo.com/7e732cf3c3ff65bc852515fa080b92cc

[native tide]

idk

do i need xamp

[vernal furnace]

@dense slate It gave me this error
https://gyazo.com/c637869b8cba331c59728b148b3bd303

thats views.py

def todo_add(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = todo(request.POST)

        if form.is_valid():
            added_date = timezone.now()
            content = request.POST.get("add_todos", False)
            print(added_date)
            print(content)
            return render(request, 'todo.html')
    else:
        form = todo()
        return render(request, 'todo.html', {'form': form})

my code is a mess, im lost between the tutorial and the doc lol

[dense slate]

Your form is probably not valid and so you're not getting to any return statement.

DId you fix your forms.py? You were missing things there.

like meta

[vernal furnace]

from django import forms

class todo(forms.Form):
    added_date = forms.DateTimeField
    text = forms.CharField(label="add_todos", max_length=255)

nope

I saw meta once but I don't know what it is

[dense slate]

I don't think it's necessary actually.

[vernal furnace]

do u know what is the problem?

I think its between the url and todo.html

[dense slate]

Put a different print('something') after each if and see what it prints.

[vernal furnace]

it didn't print anything

def todo_fun(request):
    print("hello")
    return render(request, 'todo.html')

@csrf_exempt
def todo_add(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = todo(request.POST)
        print("if1")

        if form.is_valid():
            print("if2")
            added_date = timezone.now()
            content = request.POST.get("add_todos", False)
            print(added_date)
            print(content)
            return render(request, 'todo.html')
    else:
        print("else2")
        form = todo()
        return render(request, 'todo.html', {'form': form})```

the django debugger says

I saw the console

it didnt print anything

[dense slate]

Oh, your form also is not referencing a correct URL.

[icy basalt]

Is javascript necessary for web development?

[dense slate]

it should be {% 'your_url' %} in the action

[vernal furnace]

Ayyy it gave me if1

[dense slate]

@icy basalt No, but you won't get much farther than basic html without it.

[icy basalt]

What do I need to learn for web development?

[dense slate]

@vernal furnace Yea do you are getting the POST through but it's not valid. What's the error now

[icy basalt]

Html5, css, and what else?

[vernal furnace]

still the same error

how to validate it

I don't want to create another html tho

[dense slate]

@vernal furnace Did you import your form.py class? Don't they need to be capitalized?

[vernal furnace]

@icy basalt Django Or Flask if u are interested in python, and React.js if u are interested in Javascript

from .forms import todo

[dense slate]

@icy basalt Yea, React, Angular, or Vue are the main front end choices.

[vernal furnace]

isnt that how u import it? @dense slate

[dense slate]

Todo should be capitalized in the forms.py and when you import

[vernal furnace]

yep

still the same error

do u want me to show the urls.py and todo.html?

[dense slate]

Put this outside your second if, and before the else:
return render(request, 'todo.html')

that will at least return it

but your form is not valid for some reason

You can use print() to help yourself debug things.

oh, you're trying to collect date in your forms.py, but you don't have a date field in your form.

remove it from your forms.py

[vernal furnace]

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

https://gyazo.com/8ad2d1c947d8b6380e2cbce3079585c0

the paras are missing

[dense slate]

That's why it's not validating.

You also have text= in your forms.py, but your form has a field called "content"

You need to match those. This is why some tutorials might help you get the basics here.

[vernal furnace]

lol still the same error

ValueError at /todo/add_todos/
The view todo.views.todo_add didn't return an HttpResponse object. It returned None instead.

def todo_add(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = Todo(request.POST)
        print("if1")

        if form.is_valid():
            print("if2")
            added_date = timezone.now()
            text = request.POST.get("add_todos", False)
            print(added_date)
            print(text)
            return  render(request, 'todo.html')
    else:
        print("else2")
        form = Todo()
        return render(request, 'todo.html', {'form': form})

something is wrong

Its mainly because im confused

the tutor was so bad man he confused everything I learned

[dense slate]

in your second if statement, unindent the return once

are you getting it to print "if2"?

[vernal furnace]

nope it printed if1

[dense slate]

so it's still not valid, change the first print to print(form)

see where your error is

[vernal furnace]

no no its valid now

I mean it returned me

[dense slate]

if you're not getting "if2" it's not valid

[vernal furnace]

It returned me to the add_todo/ path

[dense slate]

unindenting the return just removed it from the if and now doesn't require it to be valid

[vernal furnace]

oh yea

ok now it gave me something new

Ok so I removed added date completely

the page is not validating

The view todo.views.todo_add didn't return an HttpResponse object. It returned None instead.

There was a bug in my form a week ago, It was one line of code and I had to struggle 3 days to fix it

hope this one is not the same lol

[inland stirrup]

#help-mango somebody please

[dull tartan]

has anyone of u made a spam classifier

@dense slate

[plucky tapir]

Just wanted to say thanks guys I asked questions frequently throughout the semester. I had no web development experience and had a huge project, this place kept me from flying off the loose end

[native tide]

@vernal furnace What is the issue you're having?

[fallen spoke]

what is the difference between HS256 and RS256 for JWT? Is one more secure than the other? should I use one over the other? also what do the numbers signify? there are versions with 512 instead of 256.

[native tide]

any reason you chose JWTs over cookies?

[midnight needle]

does django use processes or threads for handling "threads"?

[copper lagoon]

using flask, domain.com/manage/guildID/control/ makes stuff like not clickable, like stuff works, but like when u click stuff, it doesnt do what its supposed to, but when i do domain.com/manage/guildID it works
like without the 3rd argument

[iron beacon]

Hey everyone

I'm wondering what is the best practices to unit test file fields in a Django Application

I'm building a project that uses Azure Storage, but I wish there was a way to use the default system storage when testing.

anyone knows how can I accomplish this?

[vernal furnace]

@native tide Hope u are here, my problem is the form is not validating

[native tide]

Yeah I'm here (kinda), what's the error message?

[vernal furnace]

ValueError at /todo/add_todos/
The view todo.views.todo_add didn't return an HttpResponse object. It returned None instead.

[native tide]

And your view?

[vernal furnace]

from django.shortcuts import render
from django.views.decorators.csrf import csrf_exempt
from django.http import HttpResponse
from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
from .forms import Todo
from django.utils import timezone

def todo_fun(request):
    print("hello")
    return render(request, 'todo.html')

@csrf_exempt
def todo_add(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = Todo(request.POST)
        print(form)

        if form.is_valid():
            print("if2")
            text = request.POST.get("add_todos", False)
            print(text)
            return  render(request, 'todo.html')
    else:
        print("else2")
        form = Todo()
        return render(request, 'todo.html', {'form': form})

[native tide]

Did you remember to include the csrf token in your form

[vernal furnace]

no

[native tide]

Oh its csrf exempt

[vernal furnace]

so should I?

{% extends 'base.html' %}

{% block content %}
    <div class="row mt-4">
        <div class="col">
            <h2>Add Item</h2>
            <form action="add_todos/" method="post" class="form-inline">
                <label for="add_todos">Your name: </label>
                <input id="add_todos" type="text" name="add_todos" value="{{ text }}" class="form-control mb-2 mr-sm-2" placeholder="Jane Doe">
                <button type="submit" value="OK" class="btn btn-primary mb-2">Submit</button>
            </form>
        </div>
    </div>
{% endblock %}

that's how todo.html looks

[native tide]

you should (generally speaking), but it won't change the error you're getting.

Could you try this?

def todo_add(request):
        if request.method == "POST":
            form = Todo(request.POST) # this "inserts" the POST data into this form instance, which then can be used to check whether it's valid or not
            if form.is_valid():
              # do what you want with the form's data

            else:
              errors = form.errors
              print(errors)
              # show forms errors

        else:
          form = Todo()
        return render(request, 'todo.html', {'form': form})

# make sure you're returning something within the if statements too.

btw I don't work with Django forms but can't you render it into your template without having to write all the HTML yourself?

[vernal furnace]

wait its giving me syntax error at the else:

[native tide]

my indentations are wrong

[vernal furnace]

nvm fixed it

[dense slate]

@vernal furnace You still have that return statement indentation that I told you to remove before.

It's not validating, and you are not getting to the "else" part of the statement.

Therefore it doesn't hit any return statement.

[vernal furnace]

I removed it but I thought it was for test purposes

[dense slate]

No, unindenting it is the right move, but you have a validation problem to fix.

Print your form and look at which item it is saying "blah blah is required"

That is what is invalidating the form.

[native tide]

{% extends 'base.html' %}

{% block content %}
    <div class="row mt-4">
        <div class="col">
            <h2>Add Item</h2>
            <form action="add_todos/" method="post" class="form-inline">
                <label for="add_todos">Your name: </label>
                <input id="add_todos" type="text" name="add_todos" value="{{ text }}" class="form-control mb-2 mr-sm-2" placeholder="Jane Doe">
                <button type="submit" value="OK" class="btn btn-primary mb-2">Submit</button>
            </form>
        </div>
    </div>
{% endblock %}

Is this writing your own form? Shouldn't the form instance be passed through the context? Otherwise it will never validate

[dense slate]

Yea, why is "action" still not using your URL like we talked about?

[vernal furnace]

Its?

[dense slate]

although

Might not be necessary. Maybe you can route that way.

It is? Ok, because it's not showing it above. Unless that's the old code.

[vernal furnace]

I just want to get it working now, its another problem (action="add_todos/")

[native tide]

But can you correct me on this... how is that HTML bound at all to your form instance

How would you view know if the form is being submitted if it's not being rendered in your template

<form action="/your-name/" method="post">
    {% csrf_token %}
    {{ form }}
    <input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

[dense slate]

Yea, Nut is right. I am used to using widget-tweaks so I thought he was doing it manually.

You can just use {{form}} to make it easier.

[native tide]

Because he passed form in the context and then did not use it in the template, so it will always be invalid.

If they want to stick with their custom form I think they need an API to handle the validation

which is more work than required 🙂

[dense slate]

That might be my fault. I don't think he had it setup that way originally but I sent him to the forms docs.

[vernal furnace]

Wait guys

[dense slate]

But that still is the way it should be done with forms.

[vernal furnace]

why do I have to validate my form?

[dense slate]

I don't think you have to, I am so used to doing that with every form that I forgot you can probably skip that step.

Sorry!

[native tide]

Well, in this case you are trying to validate your Todo form, and that may have some validators such as required=True, so you have to ensure that your inputs are valid or the form will not submit

[vernal furnace]

So should I skip the problem or fix it?

<li>This field is required.</li>

it says this fieldd is required @dense slate

<li class="list-group-item">{{ text }}</li>

[native tide]

Well you can't "skip" the problem, that is the problem

@vernal furnace do you understand why your form is not validating?

[vernal furnace]

no

that's why I can't fix the problem

[native tide]

Ok so tell me if you don't understand this, I'll try to explain:

You're trying to validate your form when you say form.is_valid().
What is the form you might ask?

form = Todo()
It's an instance of your Todo() form.

So for the view to be able to validate the form, it must be rendered. But you are not rendering your form, you are rendering something else with the HTML you sent. The form in your HTML does not correspond to the Todo() instance so it will never validate.

[vernal furnace]

How to make it respond?

[native tide]

Well you have to render the form. So remove the HTML you have

You understand that right?

[vernal furnace]

No lol

I mean how do u want me to render the form If I remove the html

[native tide]

Talk me through which parts you aren't getting

[vernal furnace]

so do u want me to remove "todo.html" from return render?

[native tide]

No.

The form that you wrote in the HTML is not at all linked to the Todo() instance

When you say form = Todo() and then check its validity with form.is_valid() that form is the Todo() instance. You're trying to submit a different form and the view doesn't know what it is.

Here's a good time to read through the docs and watch a YT video on django forms

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

But above in the text I've shown how to fix it

You wrote the Todo form right? So then all you have to do is render it.

[vernal furnace]

wait I think its working

when I click submit

[native tide]

huh 🤔

so what did you change

[vernal furnace]

when I click submit it sends me to add_todo/

its doesn't give me value error

idk while u were talking with demi I did some stuff

def todo_add(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = Todo(request.POST)
        print(form)

        if form.is_valid():
            print("if2")
            text = request.POST.get("add_todos", False)
            context = {
                "text": text
            }
            print(text)
            return  render(request, 'todo.html', context)
    else:
        print("else2")
        form = Todo()
    return render(request, 'todo.html')

oh

I have to remove return render right?

[native tide]

so is your form validating now?

[vernal furnace]

look

if I indent the last render under else

it will give me value error

if I keep it outside else it will work fine

I mean idk how fine it is, since it doesn't return any value to me lol

[fresh sand]

how do i pass a bool in a post req

[native tide]

yeah it gives you a value error because your form is not validating

[fresh sand]

    premium = request.form.get("premium", type=bool)

this doesnt work

[native tide]

you submit your "form - which is not linked to your Todo instance", it redirects to your add_todos/ with a POST request. But, your form is not valid and there is no else statement to return anything.

[fresh sand]

and if i remove type=bool it makes it a str

[vernal furnace]

how to link it

you told me to render it

[fresh sand]

any flask person here?

[native tide]

You've already linked it, form = Todo(), I've explained that, now you have to render it, which I have explained too above

@fresh sand what doesn't work about it, is premium null?

[fresh sand]

if i make it type=bool yes

it makes it None

[native tide]

Can you print the request data that you're sending?

[fresh sand]

def updateCreds(
    uid,
    avatarUrl,
    email,
    userName,
    followers,
    following,
    moderator,
    premium,
    notifications,
    profession,
    token,
    verified,
    notification,
    posts
):
    uid = request.form.get("uid")
    avatarurl = request.form.get("avatarurl")
    email = request.form.get("email")
    premium = request.form.get("premium", type=bool)
    followers = request.form.getlist("followers")
    following = request.form.getlist("following")
    moderator = request.form.get("moderator", type=bool)
    notifications = request.form.get("notifications", type=bool)
    profession = request.form.get("profession")
    token = request.form.get("token")
    verified = request.form.get("verified", type=bool)
    notification = request.form.getlist("notification")
    posts = request.form.getlist("posts")

    listAll = {

        "followers": followers,
        "following": following,
        "moderator": moderator,

        "token": token,
        "userName": userName,
        "verified": verified,
        'uid': uid,
    }

    try:
        print(notification)
        for key, value in listAll.items():
            if value is not None and key != "uid":
                users.update_one({"uid": uid}, {"$set": {key: value}})
        # print(users.find({"uid": uid}))
        # return "hwello"
        return pjson({"data": list(users.find({"uid": uid}))})
        if uid is None:
            return {"error": "must provide uid"}
    except Exception as e:
        return jsonify(
            {
                "status": "error", "error": e
            }
        )

this is the complete function

[copper lagoon]

hey, with flask, using <var> and getitng var in def routevar(var): breaks the page! anyone got any ideas?

[native tide]

do all of the other variables w/ type=bool work?

[vernal furnace]

{{ form }} you mean rendering it like this?

[native tide]

yes

[fresh sand]

@native tide no

[native tide]

!code

[lavish prism]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

These are backticks, not quotes. Check this out if you can't find the backtick key.

[fresh sand]

none of em works

but I want it to be bool

[vernal furnace]

but where would I render it, I have some code there already

[native tide]

Ok, so I'd suggest printing your request to see what datatype they are. I think they are strings in this case within the JSON

[vernal furnace]

like just type {{form}} in the middle of todo.html lol

[native tide]

@vernal furnace what code is there already?

[vernal furnace]

{% extends 'base.html' %}

{% block content %}
    <div class="row mt-4">
        <div class="col">
            <h2>Add Item</h2>
            <form action="add_todos/" method="post" class="form-inline">
                <label for="add_todos">Your name: </label>
                <input id="add_todos" type="text" name="add_todos" value="{{ text }}" class="form-control mb-2 mr-sm-2" placeholder="Jane Doe">
                <button type="submit" value="OK" class="btn btn-primary mb-2">Submit</button>
            </form>
        </div>
    </div>

    <div class="row">
        <div class="col">
            <ul class="list-group">
                <li class="list-group-item">{{ text }}</li>
              </ul>
        </div>
    </div>
{% endblock %}

[native tide]

Why do you need that form, what purpose does it serve

[fresh sand]

yes if i remove type=bool and make it

    premium = request.form.get("premium")

it makes it string

which i dont want

[native tide]

Yeah, so your form is sending data as a string. Are you using WTforms?

[vernal furnace]

Its the whole page html @native tide

https://gyazo.com/ddf60ef8a69cf01ab98a2f1d201cdab2

[native tide]

But... why do you need that form that you wrote in HTML?

I've explained why in this case it serves 0 purpose

[vernal furnace]

oh its because when I type it receives data

[copper lagoon]

hey, with flask, using <var> and getitng var in def routevar(var): breaks the page! anyone got any ideas?

[native tide]

But... that's the wrong form. You have to render {{form}} and not that HTML form, it serves no purpose. This is what I'm trying to explain, you understand right?

[vernal furnace]

so ill create a whole new html file?

[native tide]

@copper lagoon so you passed a var, did you change the URL to reflect that?

[copper lagoon]

ye

the page works, but the interactive stuff doesnt

lemme get pics

[native tide]

@vernal furnace Why would you create a new html file

[vernal furnace]

then where do I pass {{form}} ;-;

[native tide]

You need to render {{form}} instead of the form you wrote in html

<form action="some action" method="post">
<!-- csrf token usually goes here -->
  {{form}}
</form>

[copper lagoon]

clicking nothing happens @app.route("/<log>/<pog>/test") def _45589675(log, pog): return render_template("profile.html") but and same issue happens when i have more than 1 argument

def _45589675():
    return render_template("profile.html")```

this works

if i have like /pog/log/test

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/366673702533988363/791015238724091924/unknown.png

same output

[vernal furnace]

I don't get you

Do you want me to create a form under the form in my html file

Like

[native tide]

Why are you trying to create 2 forms

One of your forms is invalid

Get rid of it

And replace it with the valid one, {{form}}

[vernal furnace]

I only have 1 form

[native tide]

Ok can you show us the code for your Todo form?

[vernal furnace]

from django import forms

class Todo(forms.Form):
    text = forms.CharField(label="add_todos", max_length=255)

[lavish prism]

Hey @native tide!

It looks like you tried to attach a Python file - please use a code-pasting service such as https://paste.pythondiscord.com

[native tide]

Ok, there's one form. You have another which you wrote in HTML (which is the invalid one), so you have 2

Now get rid of the invalid one, and replace it with {{form}}

[vernal furnace]

Bruhhh thats html file

[native tide]

@copper lagoon Tbh I don't know why that doesn't work, is profile.html dependent on log or pog?

[copper lagoon]

this is just an example

but yes imagine it would be

[vernal furnace]

If i remove it the text will go to nowhere and it will not trigger the todo_add function

[native tide]

and you passed log and pog into the template as template variables right?

[copper lagoon]

def _45589675(log, pog):
    return render_template("profile.html")```

yes

[native tide]

you didn't though

[copper lagoon]

oh

ye i didnt pass

does it matter?

bc i would

this is just a test route

[native tide]

well, if the template is trying to access log or pog and you didn't pass them, it can't access them so it would be an issue

[copper lagoon]

ik

that isnt the issue

[native tide]

apart from that I actually don't know what could be the issue

might need to see the real thing to grasp what's going on

because from the example that's the only thing I can see.

@vernal furnace so can you explain what you think you need to do at this moment in time?

[vernal furnace]

I don't know, I literally don't understand anything you are saying

You are saying I have 2 forms

[native tide]

Yep.

[vernal furnace]

Which one ia the second one?

Is

[native tide]

Well, which do you think is your first one?

[vernal furnace]

My first one is todo

form = todo()

[native tide]

Yep, which is this:

from django import forms

class Todo(forms.Form):
    text = forms.CharField(label="add_todos", max_length=255)

Then look in your HTML file

You have another form

[vernal furnace]

<form>?

Isnt this an html tag?

[native tide]

Paste it

Yeah that's a HTML tag, that represents another form.

And that form which you have in the HTML is not linked to your form=Todo()

[vernal furnace]

<div class="row mt-4">
        <div class="col">
            <h2>Add Item</h2>
            <form action="add_todos/" method="post" class="form-inline">
                <label for="add_todos">Your name: </label>
                <input id="add_todos" type="text" name="add_todos" value="{{ form }}" class="form-control mb-2 mr-sm-2" placeholder="Jane Doe">
                <button type="submit" value="OK" class="btn btn-primary mb-2">Submit</button>
            </form>
        </div>
    </div>  

[native tide]

Yep there's your other form

So get rid of everything between the <form> tags

and replace everything between those tags with {{form}}

and make sure you pass {"form": form} in your context

[vernal furnace]

But how will I type input?

Its for styling

[native tide]

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

You need to give these a read and watch a yt video if you don't get it

Get the right form rendered first, then worry about styling

the form you wrote in the HTML will never validate when you say form.is_valid because what you wrote in the HTML is not form!!! it is not a Todo instance!

[vernal furnace]

so that's how it should look?

<form action="add_todos/" method="post" class="form-inline">
                {{ form }}
            </form>

[native tide]

and add a submit button

[vernal furnace]

<form action="add_todos/" method="post" class="form-inline">
                {{ form }}
                <button type="submit" value="OK" class="btn btn-primary mb-2">Submit</button>
            </form>```

[native tide]

sure

[vernal furnace]

https://gyazo.com/905fb4a544e6e0224b85f4038ed59a22

Idk where to type

def todo_add(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = Todo(request.POST or None)
        print(form)

        if form.is_valid():
            print("if2")
            text = request.POST.get("add_todos", False)
            context = {
                "text": text
            }
            print(text)
            return render(request, 'todo.html', context)
    else:
        print("else2")
        form = Todo()
        context = {
                "form": form
            }
        return render(request, 'todo.html', context)

so wait

Hope you didn't ragequit ;-;

Thank you tbh, you stayed with me 2 hours ❤️

[tacit barn]

What would be a good data structure with python to capture the directed graph as generated by a moderately sized (less than 10,000 notes) directy graph (let's say up to around 5 edged between any two graphs) wiki database (think of the graph generated by the Wikipedia pages on a certain subject and all its interlinks)?

And so some searching and graph manipulation with it

[copper lagoon]

@native tide ```py
@app.route("/profile/view/<id>/")
@requires_authorization
def seeprofile(id):
user = discord.fetch_user()
name = f"{user.name}#{user.discriminator}"
avatar = user.avatar_url

return render_template("showprofile.html", user=name, avatar=avatar, id=id)```

this is one of the ones that dont work

as u can see, nothing is different here / its meaningless

like the buttons dont work

and i suspect its due to the route

[vestal hound]

a dedicated graph data structure?

look into networkx

[copper lagoon]

does the amount of "args" in a flask route make a difference?
im having an issue where having more than 1 argument breaks the page, and same with having any variables

[native tide]

@copper lagoon I've never had an issue with multiple variables in the route. One thing that you could try (but probably won't make a difference) is setting the type of the variable.

e.g. ```py
@app.route("/profile/view<int: id>/<path: username>/")

[copper lagoon]

not even that

like i cant even have more than 1 arg in the page

[native tide]

so you can't pass more than 1 variable to your template?

[copper lagoon]

not even

i cant have more than one /test/

like /test/test/

breaks it

[native tide]

oh, so even if it's static like /path/example/ it won't work?

[copper lagoon]

mhm

[native tide]

that's really weird

but you are visiting the route right? in your logs you get 200 response status' when you visit the page?

[copper lagoon]

yes

lmk if u want pictures

but basically when i press x

and the route is just /poggers/

it works

but when the route is /poggers/something/

it doesnt

and a var is the same as "something" in this way

so it just stops

/ doesnt work

[native tide]

so just / as the route doesn't work either?

[copper lagoon]

gimme a min

just / works fine

[tacit barn]

Okay yeah I've playfully used networkx before, although I don't know if it can conveniently search things

[native tide]

@copper lagoon Nothing about the route seems to scream "I'm broken", could this be something to do with auth?

[copper lagoon]

ive been testing it with this

def testtestlog():
    return render_template("control_panel.html")```

and no route needed

no auth*

look u seem to be really helpful

would you want me to send u the website?

so u can actually see what i mean?

tho i gtg eat rn

ill be back in a bit, want me to ping u?

[native tide]

You could, but I actually have 0 idea why there's such a problem, I've never ran into it before and I couldn't find anything online about it

sure

maybe show the html file to check if there's anything out of the ordinary

[copper lagoon]

well i mean u can just check the inspect element

i can tho

like this

                          <span class="alert-text"><b>Vanity URL Updated!</b></span>
                          <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert" aria-label="Close">
                              <span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span>
                          </button>
                      </div>```

this is the alrt

lemme get u the css

.alert
{
    position: relative;

    margin-bottom: 1rem;
    padding: 1rem 1.5rem;

    border: 1px solid transparent;
    border-radius: .375rem;
}```

.alert-success
{
    color: #fff;
    border-color: #2dce89;
    background-color: #2dce89;
    color: #FDFEFC;
}```

{
    padding-right: 4.5rem;
}```

.alert-dismissible

{
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    right: 0;

    padding: 1rem 1.5rem;

    color: inherit;
}```

{
    transition: opacity .15s linear;
}```

.fade

i honestly think it COULD be the html

but i doubt it

cuz why would it work with 1 /thing/

but not 2

idrk where to put this, this is probably the channel most closely related, how would you guys go about scraping a html <math> tag, and convert it to something wolfram alpha can understand?

[marsh haven]

Hi! is there a recommended directory structure for big projects using django, or everything (classes, business layer, access to a database) is supposed to be stored in views.py and model.py ?

[dawn zinc]

If you're using beautiful soup you should be able to do something like:

results = soup.find_all("math")

that should return a list with all the math tags and u can iterate through it than clean it however u want to work with wolfram

[native tide]

@compact lion did you use create-react-app?

[compact lion]

yeah, but I'm trying to turn each .jsx file in this folder into its own .html file @native tide

[native tide]

why would you want to do that? you're having an MPA with react?

[compact lion]

Well, we'd like to just have all files serverside-rendered, and running both flask and react servers would create another connection where things could break

[native tide]

Ok, but I don't think turning each .jsx file into their own .html file is how it works. Can't you just have a <script> tag in your server-side templates to have some React components in your templates?

You can just npm run build and then CRA will webpack your static files and then your backend can serve your index.html

Then the rest is handled by your frontend, like an SPA

Also with an SPA you aren't hosting your backend and your frontend separately, you just use your backend as an API. It's not really an extra connection which might break unexpectedly.

Please someone explain what is happening here:
print(user.active)
user.active = True

first print is false, second print is true, but the database still shows false..... what am I doing wrong?

[modest scaffold]

your not saving it to the database

[modest scaffold]

depending on what you are using for your program there will be probably be some save function to save it to the database e.g. user.active.save()

[fallen spoke]

I am using django, Thank you so much, works now

[modest scaffold]

np

I need some help with django: I'm getting this error "NOT NULL constraint failed: homeworkApp_homework.object_id". I have a homework model that has a generic relation with a student model. I created a homework form from the model and am now trying to save it. I have this piece of code in the views ```python
form = homeworkForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
#This tells the homework which student to relate itself with
form.cleaned_data['content_object'] = request.user.student
form.save()

[native tide]

do you have a student column for your User model?

[modest scaffold]

no but it is a onetoonefield

i have modified the abstract user

[native tide]

ok, and did you set that model as your DEFAULT_USER_MODEL?

[modest scaffold]

yee

oh wait no

i set it as my auth_user_model

[native tide]

for web dev do i have a choice in between java script and python

[peak bronze]

you do

at least for the backend

for the frontend, you dont have much of a choice

most people usually end up using javascript

okay, thanks

[lofty matrix]

You can access the field on the model and print that

[native tide]

@modest scaffold sorry I forgot to reply to your issue, did you get it fixed?

[haughty turtle]

@compact lion CRA is not what you want then, there are other packages to deploy react that will achieve what you want, just that it's not the norm not much documentation and I haven't tried it and others prob haven't either.

@native tide you ever got to use Session Storage in Django with React on the DB instead of using Cookies?

[native tide]

@haughty turtle Nope, you mean cookie-based sessions?

[haughty turtle]

Yeah last time we where talking about Django using the default of DB stored sessions. Said you where going to look into it, seeing that with React I have to route my login from React to Django was wondering if you ever got to it.

[native tide]

Ah, no, I don't really fully understand it at the moment but I haven't looked into it that much. Rn I'm stuck on understanding the difference between session-based and token-based authentication. I think that session-based auth is just token + session information in a seperate cookie. Or something like that

I just used token auth for all of mine and it works fine

  {% endfor %}
</select>
``` Is there a reason the select is not required?

Even with the required attribute

[fallen peak]

I don't see any reason for that. Try to remove the options and dynamic parts and adding one by one to see if you can figure out what is causing the problem

[verbal snow]

I don't know whats causing it

I remove the Select a bot... and its fine

No values fill up an option neither since theres no valid bots

[native tide]

@verbal snow Just a thought, I'm probably wrong, but would selected auto-select an option before the page loads, therefore making the select always required?

[hollow scaffold]

In django, does anyone know a trick to reboot a server?

i.e.

[dawn heath]

via api with subprocess?

No but it's fine

[twilit needle]

hello

can anyone help me like live?

wait I claim help channel

[twilit needle]

Hello!
So I am creating a roles and permissions system in django. I think that I need some help here,
So the basic concept is that:

• there are objects known as clusters

• clusters can have their own roles

• members of the cluster are assigned roles.

• roles also have a positional value,
  smallest positional value indicates highest role.

• based on this certain permissions are determined for the user [member]
  I have implemented this a bit roughly, and think that I can improve a lot, maybe am using the wrong logic here.

here's my backend code:
https://mystb.in/JamaicaInclFinal.python
here are my models:
https://mystb.in/EthicalAlertWhom.python

the roles system is very similar to discord roles system.
So I have an object called cluster - referred to discord server
and an object called datasheet - referred to as discord channel

Datasheets have their own role overwrites too [role overwrite object given in above link], which can overwrite the permissions the roles have at cluster-level.
The main thing here is that for the positional value, each role can have only one unique positional value in its parent cluster.
so for every update to role positions, I am rotating the whole role positions for every role in the cluster [given in code link]
Is this the best way to go about this? can someone pls help me?
its going to take sometime to read my code, if you are willing to spare that time and help then thanks a lot!!

[grizzled meteor]

for flask and sqlalchemy, is there a standard way to serialize sqlalchemy object to return a dictionary?

basically i performed a query, and want to get the output as a dictionary to send back as JSON

 @api.route('/send_dummy_data', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def send_dummy_data():
    data = request.json
    print(data)
    # data_query = db.session.query(CableResistance).filter_by(size='12').first()
    data_query = CableResistance.query.filter_by(size='12').first()
    pdb.set_trace()
    return jsonify(data_query)``` something like this

where CableResistance is a sqlalchemy database model

[gaunt marlin]

if you are using sqlalchemy i suggest using marshmallow for serialization of data https://marshmallow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ it's really stable i used it for some of my projects already

basically you write a schema for the serialization

[grizzled meteor]

@gaunt marlin i am suprised sqlalchemy doesn't have a baked in solution already

[gaunt marlin]

you can just jsonfy the objects and it would still would(just take more time to do). That why i suggest using marshmallow because it ease the pain of converting

[grizzled meteor]

i got an error when I tried to just use jsonify directly on the object

unless i was supposed to use it on a class attribute or i am just missing something

[gaunt marlin]

what is the error?

@grizzled meteor i think because you using filter it will return a list and that can't be jsonfy, you have to access index 0 of that list first

[grizzled meteor]

i did not realize the filter returns a list

and i also did not realize i cannot jsonify a list

good to know

TypeError: Object of type CableResistance is not JSON serializable

this was the error so that kind of lines up what you're saying

is 0 of that list; the first column in the "row"?

[gaunt marlin]

can you print out the query result?

[grizzled meteor]

"<CableResistance 7>"

basically '7' is the ID

[gaunt marlin]

so it's not a list but a class

[grizzled meteor]

yeah

from flask_sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemy
from .database import db

class CableResistance(db.Model):

   __tablename__ = "CableResistance"
   id = db.Column(db.Integer(), primary_key=True)
   size = db.Column(db.String(8))
   conductor_material = db.Column(db.String(2))
   conduit_material = db.Column(db.String(5))
   reactance = db.Column(db.Float(precision='5,3'))
   resistance = db.Column(db.Float(precision='5,3'))

[gaunt marlin]

jsonify is only use when you set the attribute for example jsonify(name="abc", description="a") because it's a wrapper of python json.dumps()

[grizzled meteor]

ah, i see

[gaunt marlin]

@grizzled meteor try this instead

from flask.json import dumps
....
#other codes
...
return dumps(data_query)

flask.json.dumps(obj, app=None, **kwargs)
Serialize obj to a JSON-formatted string.

[grizzled meteor]

same error, was expecting that though

[gaunt marlin]

that is why you should use marshmallow for serialization, if you look at these answer it's hard to do it manually https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7102754/jsonify-a-sqlalchemy-result-set-in-flask

the top answer even suggest it 🙂

[grizzled meteor]

i'll look into it

didn't think i'd have to look into it this much though

[gaunt marlin]

for single instance of class one of the answer

def serialize(self):
        return {c: getattr(self, c) for c in inspect(self).attrs.keys()}

for the class itself, for list query you have to write different implementation :/

[grizzled meteor]

i might just be lazy

and use that

method

lol

[gaunt marlin]

actually marshmallow is really easy to use

the docs is not that long to read either

[austere vessel]

anyone know a website that provide free icon to use for website?

I have found some but they afraid to use them cause of copyright

[kindred osprey]

Are you talking about general icons like bookmark icon, add icon or like/unlike icons?
If yes, you can use materializecss or fontawesome icons in websites. They have plenty of options with simple implementation.
Materializecss- 'https://materializecss.com/icons.html'
Font awesome- 'https://fontawesome.com/v4.7.0/icons/'

If you were not talking about general icons hen please elaborate your question :)))

[granite loom]

Hey guys so if I have a navbar for my project, and it is made with css and html only.
Is there a way to apply that navbar to every single page, without copy pasting it?

[noble smelt]

Django?

Wirte a layout.html , then extend it in your other templates

[granite loom]

no, the entire website is html and css only

[dense slate]

You can use includes to reduce how much you have to edit, but I don't think html supports a way to extend html files the way you want.

That's why Django, for example, has templating that allows for extending a base html file.

[granite loom]

i see

well i guess ima have to copy it then

[final meteor]

How can i execute a python script on click of a button in flask ?
basically i want a page where it shows all the python scripts
a user can select the script he wants to run
and the result of the script execution should show up on another page

While i can get he other pieces, but how should i tell flask to run another python script on button click

I see a lot of results telling to use AJAX but i can't understand it
can't i keep it pure python ?

the route function should call another function that processes the python script that user selected And returns a result which is further returned to the render template and the result is showed to user

[verbal snow]

@require_GET
@discord_.login_required
@utils.route(["user/me/", "user/me"])
def user_page_self(request):
``` So I have 3 decorators on a function, however, the route for some reason has to be on the bottom to get the function name, but that causes login_required to not even work. Im so confused. This is in Django.

[echo mesa]

Why are the difference in WTForms between
wtforms.form.Form.formdata
To
wtforms.form.Form.data

[echo mesa]

?

[native tide]

@final meteor sounds like you need to make your own API

@echo mesa https://wtforms.readthedocs.io/en/2.3.x/forms/

Shows you the difference

[quick bay]

I am trying to make a form that has a dropdown menu in Django. However, the labels for the form are not what I want. How can I choose what comes in the labels? (I am using Bootstrap)

Forms.py:
class BookForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = drones
fields = ['origin', 'destination']
widgets = {
'origin': forms.Select(
attrs={
'class': 'my-1 mr-2',
},
)
}

Models.py(Origin):
origin = models.ForeignKey('locations', models.PROTECT, null=True, related_name='destination_id')

Models.py(Locations model):
class locations(models.Model):
id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
location = models.TextField()

The labels I get are as follows:
locations object(1)
locations object(2)
...and so on

However, I would like the location's name. Their name is also stored in the location model.

[native tide]

So you want origin.location as your label?
