wanton ridge i recommend flask before django. I am learning and using flask<@3257218520582717...

I already know django and flask. I just want to start a new project and wanted to know the best package to use before I spend ages using one to find out another is better

wanton ridge Feb 8, 2021, 4:46 PM

then it's fine

I’m gonna probably try sanic

It seems good

at the end of the function

return redirect("url")

#

if you have the url named after something then its even better

#

for instance

#

path("", mainPage, name="index")

#

Then the "url" would be "index"

is it possible to put an alert box under 'Name' and 'Email' and 'Password' by using 3 different divs? (Boostrap)

📎 ls2e31x1wjvr26ma5x9n.jpeg.jpg

native tide Feb 8, 2021, 5:31 PM

#

yep, do it with flask flashing

native tide Feb 8, 2021, 5:33 PM

#

wanton ridge is it possible to put an alert box under 'Name' and 'Email' and 'Password' by us...

using jinja2 expressions you can check if there is a flash message, and based on a parameter like "type: name or type: password" you can show that alert where you want to show it

wanton ridge Feb 8, 2021, 5:33 PM

#

i don't know jinja2, i am just learning flask

native tide Feb 8, 2021, 5:34 PM

#

flask templates use jinja2

wanton ridge Feb 8, 2021, 5:34 PM

#

ohh i see

native tide Feb 8, 2021, 5:34 PM

#

also if you are using some sort of form from WTforms I'm pretty sure you can do something similar by accessing form.field.errors

wanton ridge Feb 8, 2021, 5:35 PM

#

i will check it

wanton ridge Feb 8, 2021, 5:40 PM

#

native tide flask templates use jinja2

like flash('Invalid Email') and the in html i just create a div and {% with messages = get_flashed_messages() %} then copy the boostrap alert-danger and do it 3 times?

native tide Feb 8, 2021, 5:42 PM

#

I think this this problem would be more easily solved by just showing the form.field.errors below each field

#

And flashed messages used for one time alerts, like a success message

#

@hasty valve not sure what you mean here. How are you testing your post_save receiver?

#

with python manage.py shell?

#

if so, you have to import both your models AND your signals, which from your previous message looks like you aren't importing your signals.

fierce canyon I keep getting this error: "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property '8975385787...

Likely a race condition where your data array isn't populated yet but you're trying to fetch that userID from it.

See the "true" in your xhr.open? That says "do this async".

You should wait to do the lookup of data[userID] when you receive the callback.

#

For instance, try to refactor it so that you do the lookup in the onload if status is 200 instead of doing a return cause it isn't working the way you think it is.

wicked elbow Feb 9, 2021, 10:19 AM

#

native tide anyone know whats the best way to store images with django? I was thinking of ha...

you can upload directly to your server in django. thats the best way in reality. otherwise youll have to find an api that passes back the url to you to save

native tide Feb 9, 2021, 10:20 AM

#

continuing to save directly to your server would probably run up the hosting bill compared to uploading to some sort of cdn, I think I'll work with some apis here.

wicked elbow Feb 9, 2021, 10:25 AM

#

its just no easy to do and be user friendly. set a file size for uploads. or shrink the files server side. otherwise just give them an input to put the url of their image in. but its extremely not user friendly to force users to sign up for another service simply just to upload a profile image for example. youd be surprised at how many images fit in small spaces.

you can also save the image blob in your db. and have the <img> html tag display it.

Hey @novel dome!

Uh-oh! It looks like your message got zapped by our spam filter. We currently don't allow .txt attachments, so here are some tips to help you travel safely:

• If you attempted to send a message longer than 2000 characters, try shortening your message to fit within the character limit or use a pasting service (see below)

• If you tried to show someone your code, you can use codeblocks
(run !code-blocks in #bot-commands for more information) or use a pasting service like:

So to understand this correctly, I'll be linking the order with the user model, and the order will also have a "preorder" boolean... ? So once the product is in place, I can just change the preorder status, and notify the user for any remaining amount to be paid. Right?

Either give the Product model a boolean field, or the Order model to specify a pre-order. Both work!

remove {'form': form}

and replace that with context

also, instead of posting a screen shot of the code

it doesn't work!

`def details(request):

you should rewrite the whole code for him

whole sierra Feb 9, 2021, 11:39 PM

context['form'] = form

return render(request, 'home/signup.html', context)

implement that on the last two lines

Its also not necesarry for a "context", his method also works

whole sierra here just copy this last part

HOO, I see.

whole sierra Feb 9, 2021, 11:39 PM

i think he wants to return the name to the page

#

@native tide you can just remove 'context' all together if youre not planning on showing it on the html page

toxic flame Feb 9, 2021, 11:41 PM

Im curious where this goes

@toxic flame respect the chat and dont type unless you want to contribute

toxic flame Feb 9, 2021, 11:43 PM

I would but you suggested me to be quiet for a moment

native tide Feb 9, 2021, 11:44 PM

`def details(request):

even that doesn't work

can you explain the backref part in this
as far I know, the value to backref could be used by the other table, to access this column stuff, right? and the other table would have a "variable" called follower(from backref) to access this column,
its like this column followed exits in table Follow under the name of follower

opaque vigil Feb 10, 2021, 7:47 PM

#

Hello everyone.

I am trying to integrate stripe into my project, but I am having a small problem with my Pay Button disabled attribute.

I am following the basic example of react-stripe-js.

My components in one file:

CheckoutForm and InjectedCheckoutForm: https://pastebin.com/XSr54pMt

The other component where I am calling the function loadSprite that returns a property (this works fine), and I am assigning it's value to a state, so I can pass it to the sprite prop in the Elements component that came from the parent component CheckoutForm.

ViewMembers.js: https://pastebin.com/swvCeQQd

The problem is even though loadSprite function is called, and the prop gets the right value (I am checking this using React Debug tools), the button in the parent component 'Pay', it's still disabled.

Maybe someone can notice something I could not. I asked this question on stackoverflow as well, and I did not have much luck. Here is the link if you are interested - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66132737/react-stripe-js-button-for-pay-always-stays-disabled

How does Flask handle scripts responses i.e. JavaScript's operations? I'm planning to create several clickable buttons on a webpage I'm building and attach an **event handler **on each of these HTML elements. So when a user clicks on any one of the buttons, the page displays the corresponding result of a specified function output (defined in a Python script)

warm igloo Feb 10, 2021, 11:31 PM

#

@pulsar copper Well, that's a pretty loaded question. Hopefully you understand that Flask doesn't care about JavaScript at all. They don't talk to each other whatsoever. In your example, the JS you mention runs on the client, makes a call to the server, and there Flask app can respond to the request and return data. It doesn't care or know that it was JS, only that an http/https request was made and it should respond. It is up to you as the Flask dev to decide how to respond. Returning JSON for example.

#

It's very important to understand the client/sever relationship in web apps. I can't tell you how many times I've had to explain this to even seasoned devs.

Ahh I see, makes sense indeed 🙂 In short, Flask doesn't deal with mouse/keyboard events that's processed on the client-side, gotcha

#

@warm igloo Speaking of JavaScript, can you pass in an instantiated Python class instance object (or its method, for that matter) to a function definition in JS?

It is important to note that this is with any backend code be it Python and Flask, C# and .NET, etc. There is the client side (HTML, CSS, JS) and the server side (multitude of options).

#

Literally all you can pass back and forth is data. So in the pickle example from Busykoala, you can send a string representation of an object, but that doesn't matter. It's just a string.

pulsar copper Feb 11, 2021, 12:33 AM

#

echo hound You can pickle python objects so they can be sent via https as a bytestream. But...

So as a Flask developer, how do we instruct JS exactly what to do? Are you saying it doesn't recognise this pickle object? I appreciate y'all helping me btw 🙂

I asked this question the other day, but wasn't able to find a solution. Hoping a new set of eyes would help.

I get this error:

I have a django model:


  class PostObjects (models.Manager):
    def get_queryset(self):
      return super().get_queryset().filter(status='1')

  title = models.CharField(max_length=200, unique=True)
  slug = models.SlugField(max_length=200, unique=True)
  author = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
  updated_on = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True)
  content = models.TextField()
  created_on = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
  pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published')
  status = models.IntegerField(choices=PostStatus, default=0)
  objects = models.Manager() #default manager
  postobjects = PostObjects() #custom manager```

I have tried addding, null=True or blank=True on the author Foreignkey, but still get an error.

#

I have also been using makemigration and migrate each time I make changes too.

qs.pk # qs is a QuerySet not a MyModel instance, and it will raise a runtime error

basically I am trying to change the value of <textarea> by using js but each time it change it for one second and then delete it direcly anyone have any idea why is that happening to me?

#

function B() {
            let v = document.getElementById("Binary").value;
            let h=B2T(v);
            document.getElementById("Text").value = h.toString();
        }
        function T() {
            let v = document.getElementById("Text").value;
            let h=T2B(v);
            document.getElementById("Binary").value = h.toString();
                }

Hey, for the web apps I've made with Django, a lot of times I will have "settings" that I want to configure on the site from an admin page while the site is running. Say, for example, a setting that lets you disable and re-enable user registration. I've handled this by making "singleton models" where I store a single object in a database table, but this seems to go against what databases are designed for. Is there a best practice for handling this type of configuration?

Using Flask SQLAlchemy and I'm not sure as to the purpose of a ForeignKey with a backref already in place.

Say I have an Author class with the following relationship:

stories = db.relationship("Story", backref="author", lazy=True)

In my Story class, I can then access the author id using mystory.author.id. Is there any point to including a ForeignKey reference to that user in that case (as below)?:

author_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey(".id"))  # or story.author.id

barren moth Feb 12, 2021, 3:06 AM

#

if I was writing an api server, what library would I want to use?

#

this won't be serving webpages at all, but should be scalable

vivid bear Feb 12, 2021, 3:07 AM

#

@barren moth I think you and I have different ideas about what constitutes scalable

#

I'm working with ARU. We need a reasonable choice for a back-end API server that runs behind an NGINX reverse proxy, which will eventually be configured to round-robin requests between multiple machines. The back-end servers do not necessarily need to communicate with each other

#

Right now our code just extends http.server

#

Projects we're considering, though haven't researched, include Django and Twisted. In the past I've used cherrypy but I'm not sure if I want to use it here

twilit needle Feb 12, 2021, 3:18 AM

so earlier I had a django project with a single app but with lots of models.
Now, I have split the single app into multiple apps. But now, I need to make a lot of imports

from django.shortcuts import get_object_or_404
from rest_framework import generics
from rest_framework.pagination import LimitOffsetPagination

from rebox_django.apps.core.views import (PutAsCreateMixin, FlexibleObjectMixin, MultipleFieldMixin)
from rebox_django.apps.core.views import (PutDeleteAPIView, ListBulkDeleteView, EmptyBatchUpdateView)
from .models import (Channel, Category, Box, Upload)
from .permissions import (DeleteUploads, ManageBox, DeleteBox, ManageChannels)
from .permissions import (SendUploads, ReadUploadHistory, AddStars, RemoveStars, ManageUploads, EditUploads)
from .serializers import (ChannelPositionSerializer, CategoryPositionSerializer)
from .serializers import (UploadStarSerializer, UploadSerializer, BoxSerializer, ChannelSerializer, CategorySerializer)
from .serializers import (PartialBoxSerializer, PartialUploadSerializer, PartialChannelSerializer)
from .serializers import (PartialUploadStarSerializer, PartialCategorySerializer)

Is this normal?
Because I split it down, to keep all my abstract classes, I have an app called core

cerulean vapor Feb 12, 2021, 3:31 AM

#

@barren moth Starlette / FastAPI are the most cutting edge of those projects in terms of both speed and use of asynchronicity. Django is more for user-facing stuff -- lots of convenient features but not the fastest.

#

Aiohttp is more a base-level toolkit for doing asynchronous I/O

#

also, nothing says this all has to be built on one thing. Django could be used for things that are convenient but not performnce intensive

#

which is why that is being considered

cerulean vapor Feb 12, 2021, 3:34 AM

#

barren moth i do know that aiohttp does have a server https://docs.aiohttp.org/en/stable/web...

it's a very minimal one, though. For something robust you would probably use an actual web server, like Apache or whatnot, as a frontend proxy

barren moth Feb 12, 2021, 3:34 AM

#

NGINX

cerulean vapor Feb 12, 2021, 3:34 AM

#

or Nginx, yes

barren moth Feb 12, 2021, 3:34 AM

#

this is the description #web-development message

cerulean vapor Feb 12, 2021, 3:35 AM

#

but really, anything that supports WSGI or uWSGI (for async) will work

#

I'd pick at least one of those things I mentioned and try building something with it. Don't succumb to decision paralysis. Just start building stuff with something and see what the experience is like

barren moth Feb 12, 2021, 3:36 AM

#

so is there a relationship between starlette and fastapi?

#

I heard that fastAPI was built on Starlette

cerulean vapor Feb 12, 2021, 3:36 AM

#

https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/features/#starlette-features

Features - FastAPI

FastAPI framework, high performance, easy to learn, fast to code, ready for production

#

FastAPI is fully compatible with (and based on) Starlette. So, any additional Starlette code you have, will also work.

#

Starlette is the substrate; FastAPI is built atop Starlette

barren moth Feb 12, 2021, 3:37 AM

#

so start with starlette if it doesn't work, fastAPI

cerulean vapor Feb 12, 2021, 3:37 AM

#

Starlette might be a little low-level, but sure

barren moth Feb 12, 2021, 3:37 AM

#

what do you mean?

cerulean vapor Feb 12, 2021, 3:38 AM

#

there might not be enough in Starlette to build the things you want without doing that much more heavy lifting. FastAPI may be more convenient

#

that's also why frameworks like Django are useful, they provide a lot of stuff that people often have to roll when making a site: user management, for isntance. But that comes at the cost of it being pretyt topheavy and not the fastest

#

but again, you could use Django for the "convenient but slow" stuff and FastAPI for the, well, fast API stuff

barren moth Feb 12, 2021, 3:41 AM

#

so use them both in tandem

I'm planning to build a search engine with Python in the backend. A real search engine, not the kind which Googles the query in the backend. I understand that it's pretty complex to crawl the whole internet, so I want users to register their site.

It's not like it's a necessity, but I'd rather keep it private.

#

Just.

dense zephyr Feb 12, 2021, 6:11 AM

#

worldly mist It's not like it's a necessity, but I'd rather keep it private.

because of plagiarism?

worldly mist Feb 12, 2021, 6:11 AM

#

Yeah, you could say that.

#

I have a few friends who are developers, too.

#

And don't want them to get the code and make it their own...

#

Yeah, I don't want to open source it, but I don't exactly want to do it myself.

#

Anybody who's sincerely interested is free to join.

dense zephyr Feb 12, 2021, 6:12 AM

#

arent there os licenses or something

#

idk

worldly mist Feb 12, 2021, 6:12 AM

#

There are.

#

But you know, it's just safer to keep it private.

manic frost Feb 12, 2021, 6:13 AM

#

@worldly mist
A closed-source project that doesn't make any money won't attract much attention. Thousands of open-source projects thrive, and many of their maintainers profit from it.

Thankfully, we don't treat intellectual property like barbarians. If someone steals your code, it's a crime. You don't have to hide it or anything.

The primary way of collaborating on open-source project is a version control platform like GitHub or GitLab. You can start your project there, and share a link to it.

worldly mist Feb 12, 2021, 6:13 AM

#

so that only the people who are really working on it can get it.

dense zephyr Feb 12, 2021, 6:13 AM

#

so you are also talking from a security perspective

worldly mist Feb 12, 2021, 6:13 AM

#

Yeah.

manic frost Feb 12, 2021, 6:14 AM

#

If someone steals your code, it's just crime. But if you keep your code private and someone steals it, you can't even prove that it's your code.

I could always open source it later. But when it's small, I want to safeguard it.

#

So the plan is, start a channel. Anybody who wants to join can. I add them as colabs in my github repo.

manic frost Feb 12, 2021, 6:16 AM

#

Well, we only allow open-source collaboration because otherwise, we can't see what things you're up to in a private group. That's just a practical limitation.

worldly mist Feb 12, 2021, 6:17 AM

#

Is it valid if I add all the moderators to the repo and the channel?

manic frost Feb 12, 2021, 6:17 AM

#

That's just unnecessary burden, and... it's not really closed anymore, is it.

worldly mist Feb 12, 2021, 6:18 AM

#

What's not really closed?

#

Sorry, I just realized I keep saying channel. I mean server.

#

Surely it's not forbidden to start my own server and invite people to it?

manic frost Feb 12, 2021, 6:19 AM

#

Just to be clear, we're not going to make our whole moderation team watch over your server. If you want to share your project here, it needs to be open-source. Which is also the only viable way to grow it, as I said.

#

Surely it's not forbidden to start my own server and invite people to it?
No, you can't advertise a server here. For the same reason: we can't moderate every single server you're sharing.

worldly mist Feb 12, 2021, 6:20 AM

#

Oh.

#

Is there any other allowed way.

manic frost Feb 12, 2021, 6:20 AM

#

Outside of here, for example on r/Python (on reddit) or some other resource, you could share your project.

worldly mist Feb 12, 2021, 6:21 AM

#

OK.

#

I'll try putting it on Reddit.

#

Is it OK to advertise a group there?

dense zephyr Feb 12, 2021, 6:21 AM

#

lol

manic frost Feb 12, 2021, 6:22 AM

#

worldly mist Is it OK to advertise a group there?

The rules are very simple: if you want to promote/share a programming project, it has to be open-sourced.

#

For the reasons described above.

Now let's finish this extremely off-topic discussion, or move to off-topic if you have any more questions.

Hi Jet

#

in your HTML file juste after your data tou can write :

#

{# Mise en forme de la pagination ici #}
{% if is_paginated %}
<div class="pagination">
{% if page_obj.has_previous %}
<a href="?page={{ page_obj.previous_page_number }}">Précédente</a> —
{% endif %}
Page {{ page_obj.number }} sur {{ page_obj.paginator.num_pages }}
{% if page_obj.has_next %}
— <a href="?page={{ page_obj.next_page_number }}">Suivante</a>
{% endif %}
</div>
{% endif %}

#

and you can replace "Précédente" and "Suivante" by pictures or logo with a special font

#

in your view.py do you use listview from django.views.generic ?

buoyant shuttle which db is suitable for high traffic,

It depends on how much traffic you are expecting.
But some dbs are made with specific needs.
Like for logs and textual data you can consider elasticsearch.
For data that is very much structured, you can consider relational ones like postgred or mysql.

fresh cape or I must go for css/javascript and sell my soul?

bootstrap's great, for me it's a staple. but if you want to take your webapps to the next level, js is a must (as well as css, which is what bootstrap helps with). in particular, frameworks like react are great.

Hi

#

Linking for future me #python-discussion message

summer dirge Feb 13, 2021, 12:48 AM

#

@barren moth
so the way most web frameworks work, they either implement the ASGI (async) protocol or the WSGI (sync) protocol
some frameworks come with their own server, but most allow you to switch out the actual server running the website
the advantage of that is, someone can implement a better more efficient server, and a lot of frameworks can benefit from that. the disadvantage is the small bit of hassle of actually deploying the site.

while you're developing you dont need to worry this at all, most frameworks have a small server built in, just for developing. the built in server should NEVER be used in production tho.

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 12:49 AM

#

Ah

#

Why not?

summer dirge Feb 13, 2021, 12:49 AM

#

the development servers are usually quite insecure, and also inefficient

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 12:51 AM

#

Ah

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:01 AM

#

barren moth Thoughts of Sanic vs FastAPI? I've heard about both and that Sanic is async and ...

FastAPI is async

#

Sanic is basically async Flask

#

FastAPI is its own thing

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:02 AM

#

#python-discussion message

#

Yeah, I figured that out

#

Wait

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:05 AM

#

vestal hound Sanic is *basically* async Flask

Why would a synchronus web api ever exist anyways?

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:06 AM

#

barren moth Why would a synchronus web api ever exist anyways?

why not?

#

in the case where generating the response is "fast" and doesn't have to wait for external entities "much"

#

a sync web framework is fine

#

Django is sync too

#

although the limitations of WSGI are becoming more and more obvious in today's world, I guess

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:07 AM

#

Yeah

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:08 AM

#

nevertheless

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:08 AM

#

Why would you ever want to build sync now

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:08 AM

#

it's still perfectly possible

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:08 AM

#

barren moth Why would you ever want to build sync now

because you don't need the complexity + functionality of async

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:08 AM

#

How is async more complex?

#

Don't you just use async and await keyword

#

... Should I go back to reading 101 guides lol

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:08 AM

#

barren moth How is async more complex?

it's harder to debug/reason about the performance of your code

#

quick example

#

when you await, you don't know what code will execute next

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:09 AM

#

Because you don't know if it'll run that function or a different function?

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:09 AM

#

something like that?

#

you know how the event loop works, right

#

what happens after you give up control

#

depends on what tasks are currently queued

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:10 AM

#

Possibly but I don't have a thing attached to that name

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:10 AM

#

i.e. nondeterministic

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:10 AM

#

Aka idk what an event loop is

#

But i probably do just not know its name

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:10 AM

#

it's a common implementation of async

#

so basically

#

you have a "backlog" of tasks that are running

#

when the one with priority awaits

#

it pauses

#

and the next one starts running

#

until it awaits

#

then the next one, and so on

#

the machinery that handles all this is called the event loop

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:11 AM

#

So only one thing in async is actually running at a time?

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:11 AM

#

yes?

#

what is your understanding of async

#

it's concurrency, not parallelism

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:13 AM

#

Okay, I get it now

#

Just switching between what's running a lot

#

While awaiting something it can do other stuff

#

Which is why you have to use the async sleep if you want to pause, otherwise it pauses the entire script

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:15 AM

#

yes

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:15 AM

#

barren moth Which is why you have to use the async sleep if you want to pause, otherwise it ...

good observation

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:15 AM

#

vestal hound when you `await`, you don't know what code will execute next

So why does it make this harder?

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:15 AM

#

few reasons

#

one, if you have shared mutable state

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:15 AM

#

vestal hound good observation

Learned hard way, just put it together

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:16 AM

#

it becomes harder to understand when that shared mutable state is changing

#

simple solution: have no shared mutable state

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:16 AM

#

What is a shared state?

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:17 AM

#

say you have a global variable

#

all coroutines have access to that global variable

#

they can be said to "share" it

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:17 AM

#

Oh

#

And they want to edit it

#

It's not a constant

#

Then yay! Race conditions or w/e

vestal hound Feb 13, 2021, 1:18 AM

#

barren moth Then yay! Race conditions or w/e

it's easier to avoid race conditions, in some ways, than in traditional threading

#

because you choose when to give up control

#

but, yeah

barren moth Feb 13, 2021, 1:20 AM

#

Okay, I think I get as much as I'll get without messing around

native tide Feb 13, 2021, 1:30 AM

The problem with async = not much adoption yet on Python

Hey I'm having trouble with Flask if anyone can help. I am trying to retrieve database model objects from the flask session for a cart system

#

I get Object of type Keyboard is not JSON serializable when passing my list of cart dicts to render_template

native tide Feb 13, 2021, 6:15 AM

on ASP.net core MVC with identity framework, I'm getting this thing that says and I can't find the html to remove it anywhere in my project. There are no external authentication services configured.

#

Adding to the cart handled in the item route

#

and manipulating the cart session is in helper.py

native tide Feb 13, 2021, 6:26 AM

#

You need to provide a serialization method for Keyboard class or use something like this

#

for row in resultproxy: row_as_dict = dict(row)

#

row2dict = lambda r: {c.name: str(getattr(r, c.name)) for c in r.__table__.columns}

forest pumice Feb 13, 2021, 6:28 AM

#

So how come that's the case when I can do the following: https://github.com/Muramasa-/KeyboardDatabase/blob/master/keebs/routes.py#L55

#

It's commented but I remade the same data structure but this time I re-query the item instead of using the one that was stored in the session dict

#

Passing this seems to work fine, this is where my confusion is

native tide Feb 13, 2021, 6:30 AM

#

Because entries is a dict already. Keyboard ORM class is not JSON serializable, so if you want to JSON serialize it, you can do something like this.. let me submit a quick PR to show you..

forest pumice Feb 13, 2021, 6:31 AM

#

But even doing entries[x] = {"item": session["cart"][x]["item"], "quantity": session["cart"][x]["quantity"]} breaks

#

My goal was to have a simple system where I could just pass session["cart"].values() to the template rather than re-querying every time cart is viewed

That code does look very hacky though. I would turn the session into a dataclass.

forest pumice Feb 13, 2021, 6:35 AM

#

Oh yeah what I had commented in cart was awful

#

Because I was trying to understand what I was missing

#

So like, why in the inventory route, can I pass a query result directly?

native tide Feb 13, 2021, 6:38 AM

#

Well, you can pass the query to the renderer, but somewhere along the line, you are trying to JSON encode it

forest pumice Feb 13, 2021, 6:50 AM

#

Okay I committed a working version

#

However, on this line: https://github.com/Muramasa-/KeyboardDatabase/blob/master/keebs/helper.py#L35

#

If I actually put the item obj into the dict in place of the dummy x, it throws the error on trying to add to cart

response = requests.get("https://one-versus-one.com/get-stats-data?first_player_id=834&second_player_id=1548&type=statistics")
data = response.json()

now data is a dict with all information that you need, now you can access it

#

data in response looks like this

#

and now you need to access that data you need so:

goals_1st_player = data['ranking']['firstPlayer'][0]['bar-value']

Didn't check if it works but it should

#

To make your work easier - take that "data" and paste it into some online json formatter. Find where is data you need in this structure and then use python to access it

anyone decent in django, i have a really tough question, been searching for an answer, tried a bunch of different things to no avail

#

i need a different response on post to a foreign key. the response is the pk, but i need the rest of the fields, not the pk to be returned. It has to be posted with the PK to the foreign key or it wont post at all. and yes, ive even swapped it to a separate class, still cant get it to work and passing the serializer.save through the other serializer and its not working either.

#

another note, its form data thats passed, so my the normal method of swapping of post doesnt work. so im scratching my head at what to do

wicked elbow Feb 13, 2021, 12:20 PM

i found a work around for now, but seem incredibly stupid to have to re query the db for the response data after a post to get the data i need, but it is what it is i guess

users = api.get_user_followed_posts

One way is CORS Access Control Allow Origin

That's it.

But if you have sensitive data, you should also have authentication

The result you're getting is because Django templates escape the data, because it is vulnerable for XSS. To render the correct content, you'll need to use a filter:

{{ test | safe }}
safe essentially says "I confirm that this data will be safe and does not require escaping". Just know that this is vunerable to XSS so you need to think about how to secure it.

CORS restricts the origin of the requests to your server. E.g. if you had an allowed origin from the host mysite.co.uk, only those requests will reach your server, and others will be blocked by CORS.

I don't know much apart from that, and I have heard from some pros that CORS should never be depended on as a security measure

misty goblet Feb 13, 2021, 3:24 PM

#

in that case does it matter which is first

native tide Feb 13, 2021, 3:25 PM

#

misty goblet ie every client will either use one or the other

hmm, to my limited knowledge your requests are passed through your first authentication middleware and if it fails to authenticate, it carries on through your other authentication middlewares

#

so in that case all of your clients will be authenticated at least one way

misty goblet Feb 13, 2021, 3:25 PM

#

I see

#

Would it make much of a difference performance wise if I was to rewrite that or would it not really matter?

i wouldn't see it making a big performance change

you could even just modify an existing middleware, such as token auth

misty goblet Feb 13, 2021, 3:28 PM

that's nice, I was originally planning on making a custom auth class that determined how a client was authenticating.

STATICFILES_DIRS = [ os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static"), ]```

And you have to move your static directory outside of home

Move your static folder to the location where manage.py is located.

Hi, got a problem.
I have a list that i converted to json but cant get the first value.

<script>
    var bot_names = "{{ bot_names_filtered | safe }}";
    //^ should equal ["zonos", "reaio"]

    document.getElementById("test").textContent=bot_names[0];
</script>

Output = [

toxic flame Feb 14, 2021, 12:49 AM

#

Maybe don't put it inside ""

#

Since it's [ which is hypothetically the first index of a string

random lava Feb 14, 2021, 12:51 AM

#

even if i did [2] it just does the first character of the string

toxic flame Feb 14, 2021, 12:51 AM

#

Have you tried taking it out of the "?

#

var cars = ["Saab", "Volvo", "BMW"];

#

This is how an array in js is

#

No ""

do they not ?

rustic pebble Feb 14, 2021, 4:26 AM

#

@random lava That is not correct

#

You should have this:

let bot_names = {{bot_names_filtered}}

Because when you use {{}} inside "" the value gets rendered as a string, its basically the same as str(bot_names_filtered) or bot_names_filtered.toString()

#

Or another option you have is this:

let bot_names = JSON.parse("{{ bot_names_filtered | safe }}")

#

This one is what I like more ^^

#

@toxic flame This is the correct approach

toxic flame Feb 14, 2021, 4:58 AM

#

yea i said remove the "

I think this is the best

toxic flame Feb 14, 2021, 5:44 AM

#

Works as well

#

But if you're trying to turn it into json format

rustic pebble Feb 14, 2021, 5:56 AM

#

No

#

JSON.parse deserialises the list

toxic flame Feb 14, 2021, 6:00 AM

#

Actually, json.parse working with an array may produce an error, not sure.

native tide Feb 14, 2021, 8:33 AM

#

An ORM is just a translation layer, even if you use the ORM in Django (which you should), you can still directly access the database via the Python Postgres or MySQL client depending on your setup. @muted stump

#

Django < translation layer > ORM < connection > Database < connection > Other Python Programs

@muted stump The better pattern is to create a REST API so that the applications that need to modify the database write via the Django models. If you need to just read the data, straight out of databases works.
