I didn't mean inheriting from UserData -- I meant having UserData as a reference (i.e. composition)
Maybe you could have the project refer to UserData?

Another approach is to just have a single table for users, but to include a type of the user as a field (an Enum, not sure if something like this exists in Django's ORM model, I'm not familiar with django)

#

we're getting real fancy now, changing fsm fields through a web socket

#

@vestal hound i got real time notifications to work finally. took way way to long. im adding seen/not seen now so i can count and show number of unseen notifications. so much fun

vestal hound
#

this is what I did too

#

it was really nice when it worked

#

😂

wicked elbow
# vestal hound yeah

what did you use for the socket? cause what i used was insanely difficult to make work. and i dont fully understand whats happening behind the scenes

vestal hound
#

okay, more accurately

#

I didn't use websockets for notifications

#

only for chat

wicked elbow
#

how'd you handle database requests? i think theres another way to do what i did, but its the easiest method. and i can still run all the requests normally.

#

channels was easy, but doing stuff to the database, well that was not fun at all

vestal hound
wicked elbow
# vestal hound what do you mean?

how'd you connect your web socket to the database? it has to be done async. im using redis to as my channel layer, but it took a while to figure out how to use djangochannelsrestframework to watch the db for changes and echo to the proper people of the changes.

vestal hound
#

like

#

when one person sends a message

#

how to notify the recipients?

#

that's done through the channel layer

#

database is updated separately

#

in other words once you're connected to the websocket you only read from the database when entering a chat with someone else

#

(chat is a separate view for my app because it's not the main purpose)

#

(so you can only chat one person at once)

#

(and there are no toast-like notifications)

wicked elbow
#

no, thats easy echo the message is easy

#

yea, mines gonna be set up similar, but mines gonna keep all chats real time even when if your not in the chat.

#

for instance though

@action()
async def change_seen(self, pk, **kwargs):
  item = await database_sync_to_async(get_object_or_404)(Notifications, pk=pk)
  try:
    await database_sync_to_async(item.change_seen)()
    await database_sync_to_async(item.save)()
  except TransitionNotAllowed as e:
    raise ValidationError(e)
  return {'status': True}, 200
``` this is database updating through the web socket not done through a seperate request
vestal hound
#

hm normally I use it as a decorator

#

and have specific functions for business logic

wicked elbow
# vestal hound and have specific functions for business logic

the action decorator allows me to call it through the json thats sent between the front end and the server websocket. the .change_seen method is a method specific to notifications. the websocket, responds back with the updated status, and echos the update to the user thats subscribed. honestly insane how it all works. but since im gonna be bulk patching, its better to do through the socket then push a bunch of requests. but thats how ive figured out how to modify the database inside the websocket. can do creates and everything

A key part of the Python philosophy is to ask for forgiveness, not permission. This means that it's okay to write code that may produce an error, as long as you specify how that error should be handled. Code written this way is readable and resilient.

try:
    number = int(user_input)
except ValueError:
    print("failed to convert user_input to a number. setting number to 0.")
    number = 0

You should always specify the exception type if it is possible to do so, and your try block should be as short as possible. Attempting to handle broad categories of unexpected exceptions can silently hide serious problems.

try:
    number = int(user_input)
    item = some_list[number]
except:
    print("An exception was raised, but we have no idea if it was a ValueError or an IndexError.")

For more information about exception handling, see the official Python docs, or watch Corey Schafer's video on exception handling.

Thanks! I think I will go with writing the actual tasks as Django Management Commands, and then use Django-Crontab to execute those commands. It's not as "fancy" as Redis + Celery, but i (possibly naively) feel I am using the correct tools for the job. Celery, riding on top of Redis, just seems like total overkill for a backend management command. I feel it's more suitable for a massive pipeline of tasks, which my App does not have

I am planning to make a website that is data driven. Should I use React? Should I use Flask with React? Or Django with React? Or no React?

#

Wondering which of these web technologies works well together and is suited for Python.

#

Currently planning for React + Flask.

surreal thicket
#

use django if you know you're going to use a relational database with an ORM

#

otherwise there are a lot of options besides flask, although it's obviously very popular and actively developed, so it's not a bad default.

rotund parcel
#

Unfortunately, I am using SQLAlchemy but it's already built into my application with React + Flask and I'm not sure it would be easy to switch to Django's ORM or even Flask's Sqlalchemy ORM

surreal thicket
#

also what do you mean by "data driven"? the choice of web framework is probably less important than the API design between the frontend and backend

rotund parcel
#

What other options are there than Flask for coupling with React? Better options?

#

Data driven in that it's mostly going to be just viewing database entries and sending requests

#

not some beautiful web 2.0 interface or something

surreal thicket
#

i see, and what kinds of requests being sent?

rotund parcel
#

typical get requests with a couple integers

surreal thicket
#

and that would just return some data back to be shown in the browser?

rotund parcel
#

Yep, just running a query and returning it all in a table

surreal thicket
#

whenever i've worked on an application like this, typically what happens is that we define an API that the backend (the python server) implements, and the frontend (the react stuff on the webpage) can make asynchronous requests to that API in order to update and fill in data

#

so im not sure you need to care much about coupling between the web framework and the react part

#

and im not aware of any python web framework that has any specific niceties for working with react

rotund parcel
#

That is what I am planning to do. React is probably the right choice though? I've never touched it before

surreal thicket
#

react is a big complicated library

#

so there's a lot to learn

rotund parcel
#

Yeah that does worry me a lot.

surreal thicket
#

but, i think its a great way to design a webpage

rotund parcel
#

But it seems like the big thing to learn, so might be worth learning

surreal thicket
#

the main advantage of react imo is the "components" model

rotund parcel
#

I've already been learning Flask and SQLAlchemy, might as well add React to the mix

surreal thicket
#

and the other nice thing about react is that it gives you tools for dealing with the "current state" of the webpage in a nice way

#

if you're gonna do web stuff it's worth knowing imo

#

if you're already learning those tools, use those tools

#

you don't need the flask-sqlalchemy integration library

rotund parcel
#

React does seem like a big, scary library to learn

uncut rover
#

Hey

rotund parcel
#

Learn REACT in just FIVE MINUTES now that's what I'm talking about!

#

haha

surreal thicket
#

@rotund parcel i found that the official react documentation was very helpful

#

and if you want to really have fun, you can try using reasonml or rescript to write the frontend code instead of javascript 🙂

#

(jk thats more complexity than you need at this level)

rotund parcel
#

I do know JS already, so that's not an obstacle. I've always found transpilers to be weird.

lament sapphire
#

Why and how do I fix this? I feel it has somethign to do with my Path, however, I have installed Django and I did create a project successuffly in mu directory above.

What could be the problem here?

Bpower@tests-MBP ~ % cd Code_Master 
Bpower@tests-MBP Code_Master % cd Python 
Bpower@tests-MBP Python % cd Django 
Bpower@tests-MBP Django % python -m django --version

Bpower@tests-MBP Django % cd poll-100% 
Bpower@tests-MBP poll-100% % django-admin startproject
zsh: command not found: django-admin
Bpower@tests-MBP poll-100% % ```
rotund parcel
#

looks like your installer did not add the django-admin scripts to your path

#

If you use venv, you could do
python -m venv .venv . .venv/bin/activate pip install django

#

otherwise you need to maybe re-install django, or somehow get the django-admin script added to your path

#

You on windows, mac or linux?

#

zsh so I'm going to guess linux

#

You can probably do python -m django startproject

#

or try re-installing it
pip uninstall django sudo pip install django

lament sapphire
rotund parcel
#

most people recommend using venv. It's good stuff although annoying to have to also activate. It should handle all the installs and scripts for you nicely

lament sapphire
rotund parcel
#

I would do that, yep. Separate folder for every Django project with its own separate venv

#

venv isolates all your pip libraries too, so each project has its own isolated libraries

lament sapphire
rotund parcel
#

It's very important for long term projects because over time libraries will change and you'll never remember which versions your project worked with

#

but pip freeze > requirements.txt remembers!

warm fractal
#

It's also important to do regular security updates of the pins just in case, nothing is quit like coming back to a overgrown maintenance backlog

rotund parcel
#

There's no prefect solution. I guess LTS is an attempt at a solution

I have been learning Django lately and I found that the learning curve is pretty steep. It feels like learning an new language as opposed to learning a library. I am not saying that Django is bad but I was surprised how much there was to go through.

rotund parcel
rotund parcel
dry herald
# rotund parcel I found it really easy to jump into Flask. So that's what I'm using

Yea, I thought about that too. I figured that Django's learning curve is worth it when I start adding more features like users, accounts, and database stuff. I do see the value it in so that's why I sticking with it. It's definitely not a "beginner friendly" but the docs are fantastic and it is straightforward when you do understand it. I am not really sure why people recommend it for new python developers.

I haven't used Flask, but I figured that at some point you need to add these features so the complexity and learning curve is going to be there at some point.

rotund parcel
#

Flask is easy to work with databases. I haven't done any accounts stuff though

#

I've always thought of Django as an everything framework it seems to handle everything about a website for you. Flask is smaller and more focused on backend work

lament sapphire

Thanks again

Page not found (404)
Request Method:     GET
Request URL:     http://localhost:8000/polls

Using the URLconf defined in mysite.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order:

    admin/

The current path, polls, didn't match any of these.

You're seeing this error because you have DEBUG = True in your Django settings file. Change that to False, and Django will display a standard 404 page.

And I'm at:

class PostListSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):

post_count = serializers.SerializerMethodField()
posts = PostSerializer(many=True, read_only=True,)

class Meta:
    model = PostList
    fields = ('post_count', 'posts',)

def get_post_count(self, obj):
    return obj.objects.count()```  models.py: ```class Post(models.Model):

title = models.CharField(max_length=100)
body = models.TextField()
date_created = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)

def __str__(self):
    return self.title

class PostList(models.Model):
post_count = models.IntegerField()
posts = models.ForeignKey('Post', on_delete=models.CASCADE)``` PostSerializer GET works fine, but PostListSerializer returns []

Hi, I have a flask design question. I have a working app, but I would like to refactor it. It's working reasonably well for my needs, but it's messy, and I want to learn different patterns. Should I ask my question here or open a help channel?

#

it's about routing and forms

#

pretty basic stuff (although not so basic for me)

#

I'll just go ahead and post here.

#

I have a little inventory app.
A user can add to the inventory by uploading a csv file from a form.
Data is validated and processed, compared to an existing database.
User is then shown a second form, where he can confirm adding his items or not. More information is displayed here for each item (such as if such item already exist, and and if so in what quantity, and so on).
At this step, user is required to add some custom information (such as storage unit identification, and other important things).
When submitted, data is processed once again, and everything gets added to database if nothing goes wrong.
Then finally, the user is redirected to some sort of receipt page, where he can see a summary of what he added.

#

(sorry for the long post. TL/DR, users add stuff to an inventory through a two steps process)

#

For my first version, code looks something like this (I made a quick overview):

#

`@app.route('/add', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def add():
form1 = AddCSV() # WTForms for Form1

if request.method == 'POST' and form1.data:
    # validate and process csv data 
    # initialize and populate form 2 
    return render_template('add2.html', form=form2)

elif request.method == 'POST' and form2.data:
    # do stuff
    # return receipt
    return render_template('receipt.html', data=data)

return render_template('add.html', form=form1)`
#

So everything is in a single route... It's a bit messy. I put some helpers function in an external module. But I find it hard to find my way. What other pattern could I or should I use?

how would tha tlook than? I understand Path's, but not from the python syntax so much yet.

#

what you should honesly have is this.

polls
....urls
....views
polls_100
....urls

then your urls should look like this
polls.urls

from django.urls import path
from . import views

urlpatterns = [
    path('', views.index, name='index'),
]

polls_100.urls

from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import include, path

urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    path('polls/', include('polls.urls')),
]
lament sapphire
#

it'd be
path(polls/ etc.?

#

plafee in the views path liek so

wicked elbow
#

your structure should look like what i wrote

lament sapphire
#

okay, I see

wicked elbow
#

polls_100
...wsgi.py
...asgi.py
...settings.py
...urls
polls
...urls
...views

thats how it should look

#

im guessing your folder names

#

you need to do your url file for each create app you do. and your base url file, the one you created your project with needs to point to that url file

lament sapphire

thanks a ton

that is clearing that up I think

Hi, I am trying to display a message if the credentials are incorrect, This is my code```py
def loginPage(request):
if request.user.is_authenticated:
return redirect('home')

else:
    if request.method == 'POST':
        username = request.POST.get('username')
        password =request.POST.get('password')

        user = authenticate(request, username=username, password=password)

        if user is not None:
            login(request, user)
            
        else:
            messages.info(request, "Username OR password is incorrect")

    context = {"form":form}
    return render(request, 'registration/login.html', context)

This is my html code to display the message ```django
                {% if message %}
                {% for message in messages %}
                    <p id="messages">{{message}}</p>
                {% endfor %}    
                {% endif %}        
``` But the page refreshes instead of displaying the message when incorrect credentials are entered. Thanks

so you would liek Feed and Profile inline?

formal axle
#

Thanks

lament sapphire
#

well I also just fixed it for you using flex

#

however, I could show you the inline version too. Although you could mak those buttons inline without a container, I recommend you always use some sort of container for soemthign like that.

#

are you abel to see what I did just now?

#

one sec, wodneri if it'll let me save the pen.

#

lol, not good at pens..

Here place this html:

  <button class="feed padding friends2"><a href="/feed">Feed</a></button>
    <button class="profile padding friends2"><a href="/home">Profile</button>
</div> ```

Then repalce this css:
```/*Feed*/
.container {
  display: flex; 
}
.feed {
  background: #ffe599ff;
  text-decoration:none;
  font-size: 110px;
  Border: 4px solid black;
  font-family: 'Comfortaa';
  color: black;
}
.padding {
  padding: 10px; 
}

.profile {
  background: #fff2ccff;
  text-decoration:none;
  font-size: 110px;
  Border: 4px solid black;
  font-family: 'Comfortaa';
  color: black;
  text-align: center;
}```
#

I know you wanted thigns centerd as well, however, you start small and extend out from there.....

#

That is flex, if you want inline, then on teh container, replace fles with Block.... and then add disply on .padding and add inline-block

#

well, if you made it work with that, great, however, that's just using too much margin in my opinion, it' snot needed.

#

When designing a REST API, what is an endpoint like POST /users (that creates a new user) supposed to reply? not really sure if any data is needed here, so I'd probably just reply with 204 (No Content) or something like that?

quick cargo
#

204 has the potential (atleast in my experience) to confuse things like Postman when they have nothing to not navigate to etc... which ends up leaving it hanging

#

if this is for a website using a POST request on per say a Form you will want to render back to the original page

stable nacelle
#

no, it's just a JSON REST API, decided to return 200 + the userid and name that was created

#

I do have 204 on a DELETE endpoint though, should I change that to 200?

quick cargo
#

its mostly depends on your use case

#

but you should? be ok

manic frost
#

'REST' doesn't define any protocol or data format 🙂

#

so do whatever makes more sense -- an id of the resource, the inserted resource itself, no data etc.

#

What would be the reason to use a more nuanced response like 204 as opposed to 200? Different caching policies?

Hi guys I'm back for some advice, i would like to learn how to use any frontend framework ( react, vue, angular ) with django, that supports authentication and stuff like that. Is there any documentation / recomendation for resources corresponding to this?

Also is there a way to use django as a "seperate" api while checking the boxes above? ( auth )

not a clue, but this is excessive.

just do,
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no">
so do the exact same thing

#

since your not allowing zoom, then you only need to set the initial-scale

#

yea not a clue about the rest of the metas. i havent launched my site yet, so really dont need any of the rest of that

vale charm
#

i can still zoom with CTRL + scroll

#

is there any way i could remove that

#

no right?

carmine swift
#

should be able to disable with javascript

vale charm
#

how

carmine swift
#

not sure but i can try googling an answer

#

you'd have to experiment though the many possible answers

#

might be a bit difficult to find a solid answer

#

as not everyone uses the same browser

#

are you trying to lock your site to a certain zoom %?

vale charm
#

i mean yea

carmine swift
#

is it to prevent things from looking disproportionate?

vale charm
#

i mean i just dont want ppl to zoom or like change anything

#

i just want everyone

#

except me of course the developer

#

to look at the same thing

#

what it they zoom

carmine swift
#

I think the effort you are attempting to put into disabling zoom is a bit much. most people dont really zoom into things unless they have bad eye site i feel

#

what are you making a find waldo web app or something?

#

try out that javascript but you might need to continue adding scripts to prevent every possibility

#

dont forget people have different browsers. Some up to date and some not

vale charm
#

how can i remove that if u know

carmine swift
#

might be something to do with your html. set body margin to 0

#

or actually

#

that looks like a border

vale charm
#

it was never before there

#

except when i zoomed

carmine swift
#

do you have btn-group as the class for that attribute holding 'Discord'

#

looks like a border

#

that whole thing a button

#

?

vale charm
#

yes but as i told u

#

it happens on zoom

carmine swift
#

So this whole zoom thing is to prevent that slight gap from showing?

#

One sec

#

use something like this to remove the top of the border border-top: none;

#

if a border causing issues on your site is pushing you to find ways to prevent zoom reconsider how you built the site in the first place

#

especially if its a banner you are having this fight with

#

is that something you want? change this in btn-grp - > border: 1px solid #dbdbdb; - > border: 5px solid #dbdbdb; or something larger than one so it doesnt seem like a small gap

#

but I think you might want to learn a bit more html

#

if you went to the extent of attempting to disable zoom because of a border

#

you might enjoy using stylesheets like boostrap from here

#

or here

i know 😄 thanking you for the recommendation

#

i've been moving more to session auth for my react frontends, in my opinion it's much better, and enforces CSRF protection and has more support for login and logout. previously, all that would have to be implemented manually.

makes me wonder why people use token auth instead of session auth entirely.

My question is about the function I'm using to do the OCR. It's not an async function. What i wanna know is do i need to make it async so when two users try to get text on the same time the server solves them at the same time and not one after the other or simply defining a function in this case will solve them in parallel anyway

#

Question Summary: I have an ASGI SOCKETIO SERVER that does OCR. The function that doea OCR is currently normal function. I wanna achieve parallel solves under situations where the server is hit multiple time at the same time. So what will work better for this OCR processing, sync or an async function?

@lime mist What performs the OCR logic?

lime mist
#

I have a function that first convers received base64 string to image, makes it grayscale using opencv and then extracts the text by running a python tesseract function. Then the obtained text is emitted as a response to that user @rotund parcel

#

I'm confused if a sync function can be accessed by multiple async functions at the same time

ProcessPoolExecutor will run your function in a separate process so you just need to adjust your function to be pure and without side effects.

I've worked with threads but never with processpools.. this should be interesting

looks like you need to specify a basename for:
router.register('products', 'ProductsViewSet', basename="my basename here")

ocean fjord

oh

thank you

is it possible to learn that power

It comes from a lifetime of generating lots of errors.

at least this one was readable. Some libraries have terrible error messages

rotund parcel
#

at this point you should probably pull up the API for router.register because you're probably doing it wrong

ocean fjord
#

i am following some kind of tutorial

#

it seems not to work

rotund parcel
#

it looks like the second argument for router.register is supposed to be an object, not a string

#

so: router.register('products', ProductsViewSet)

Hello. I'm working on a very small Flask project that basically lists some names with numbers to serve as an API. However, when I hosted it in Heroku, the data was not persistent and got deleted after some minutes/hours... why could this be happening?

rotund parcel
#

Where is the data? a file named names.json?

steep compass
#

Yes

#

I would use sql but it's just so small I thought it's not needed...

#

But maybe that's the problem

rotund parcel
#

You are probably corrupting the file when multiple people try to read and write to the file

#

Yes you should use Flask SQLAlchemy

rotund parcel
#

super duper simple to use for your case

#

that tutorial is basically exactly what you need

steep compass
#

I used flask_limiter to set a limit of request per hour/day

#

Oh

#

Okay I'll look into that

rotund parcel
#

If you read from the file, then write to it, but another request is doing the same, it will corrupt the file.

#

Alternatively, you could use a simple threading.Lock() so that only one thread will ever be reading or writing to the file at a time

steep compass
#

That's probably the problem... Nice idea about the threading

#

I'll investigate

#

Thank you

yea, i need more ram. my 16gb of ram isnt enough these days for web development. seems insane. looking at getting another 16gb

I built this rig back in Nov and I'm glad I went for 32 GB instead of 16 that everyone was recommending

installing docker put me over the limit with pycharm and webstorm running at he same time. it doesnt help i always have 6 tabs open in chrome too. plus django server, npm and postgres server. just to much going on i guess.

RAM is cheap now. Well worth it to get 32 GB

especially for developers

As a one man army what are the things you've found most useful to learn? I'm the only programmer I know and I feel like I've learned a tonne - Python, then Django, bootstrap, Wagtail, Linux and docker and I still feel like I know next to nothing 🙄
What do you guys think are the most beneficial areas to spend time learning to progress in web development?

I got to learn plenty from the questions I asked myself. But you know what they say. The more you learn the more you realize how much you dont know

even though I have a job in programming the team im a part of follows the agile methodology

#

wooh!!! i finally got my messaging app, and my notifications app fully real time pushing through a websocket. this has been a massive project thats almost done!!

most useful thing I learned is learning how to model your data

I'm in a small team working on literacy in an undocumented minority language. I do a lot of scripty things but gravitated towards server and web stuff as a way to get non techy people using the tools I made. I'm a hobbiest, but I'm working on Python as my back up career if I ever need a career change.

I can see how learning to think about data in models would be really handy

#

can someone help with html

#

i used file dirs for img sources but it only shows a broken image

opaque rivet
# native tide ```py return redirect('/test/<security_code>') ```

your @app.route('/test/<security_code>') means that security_code is a query parameter.

When you do:
return redirect('/test/<security_code>')

You are not passing an int (security_code = random.randint(10000000,99999999) to your view. Your security_code will equal "<security_code>"

So do:
return redirect(f'/test/{security_code}')
to pass it to your view.

linking it up with my dashboard for real time notifications too, so I thought websockets were needed

wicked elbow
#

well 1v1 with limited use other then for a short time you could do something called long polling. or a Hanging GET request. it has a timeout on it. if it expires it responds with expiration and the client sends a new request. depends on your notifications as well, if you have a bunch of notifications coming in at once consistently a websocket would work better. you can always do it for training. nothing wrong with that, but theres other methods you can use as well

#

could also use SSE, if your just looking for server events.

#

Yes I realize I did some dirty creates/connects... Just to keep it short.... on here.

#

If the app context is created when the request comes in, and always torn down when the requests is complete... Seems like doing it in function, is almost just as good. (No built in context manager, for connect, where as the other will always close the DB.)

so what's the best way to visualize data inside the django admin?

how i differentiate between both of them when doctor and patient enter their login credentials when doctor login the he redirect to doctor page when patient login he redirect to patient page.

    "client_id":client_id,
    "client_secret":client_secret,
    "redirect_uri":f"{request.base_url}".replace('/',r'%2F'),
    "code":code
    }
    encoded = base64.urlsafe_b64encode((f"{client_id}:{client_secret}").encode()).decode()
    headers = {"Content-Type" : 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded', "Authorization" : f"Basic {encoded}"} 
    post = requests.post("https://auth-dev.vatsim.net/oauth/token", data=data, headers=headers)
    response = json.loads(post.text)
    print(response)
    auth_head = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {response['access_token']}","Accept":"application/json"}
    user_details = requests.get("https://auth-dev.vatsim.net/api/user",data=data)
    session["user"] = user_details
    session["loggedin"]=="true"
    return redirect(url_for("index"))```
#

However, it doesn't work, i get returned invalid client type when I post to /oauth/token

{'error': 'invalid_client', 'error_description': 'Client authentication failed', 'message': 'Client authentication failed'}
This is precisely the error I get from the server

a lil help with django dashboard, so i wanted custom auth and session maintenance and so i did something like

AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = ["discordlogin.auth.DiscordAuthBackend"]
and added custom models (all following a youtube tutorial)

now the admin panel isn't working cause apparently the user model of the default backend needs is_active as an attribute, what are the other attributes would i need?

'DiscordUser' object has no attribute 'is_active'``` 

<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/auth/customizing/>  doesn't give out any constriants to the user model 🤔
opaque rivet
grim helm
#

db.models.Model

#

something like

from django.db import models
from .managers import DiscordAuthManager


class DiscordUser(models.Model):
    objects = DiscordAuthManager()
    id = models.BigIntegerField(primary_key=True)
    discord_tag = models.CharField(max_length=80)
    avatar = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    public_flags = models.IntegerField()
    flags = models.IntegerField()
    locale = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    mfa_enabled = models.BooleanField()
    last_login = models.DateTimeField(null=True)

    def is_authenticated(self, request):
        return True
opaque rivet
#

hmm, from the error I'd just change it to:
class DiscordUser(AbstractUser)
(import AbstractUser, wherever it's found)

This way your model will inherit all of Django's User methods such as is_active.

grim helm
#

ah.. so the difference between a simple db.model and user.model is the other user methods and attrs?

opaque rivet
#

yeah, AbstractUser gives your model Django's User methods and fields, allowing you to also add your own, while AbstractBaseUser does not give you all of the methods / fields.

#

so by using AbstractUser you can have access to is_active, is_authenticated, etc.

grim helm
#

soo, when's a db.model used?

#

forms and stuff?

opaque rivet
#

well, whenever you don't need django's User methods. anything auth-related should extend the User model.

grim helm
#

aaaand, i cant make migrations , if i change to AbstractUser

auth.User.groups: (fields.E304) Reverse accessor for 'User.groups' clashes with reverse accessor for 'DiscordUser.groups'.

opaque rivet
#

mostly for business logic / products, stuff like that

grim helm
#

i see

opaque rivet
#

also, you need to go into settings.py and change your default auth model, as by default it is User

#

AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'api.Customer'

grim helm
#

ohhh

#

rit thx

#

okie no, i can't have a pasword field, cause the discordlogin thing just uses oauth2

You are trying to add a non-nullable field 'password' to discorduser without a default; we can't do that (the database needs something to populate existing rows).
Please select a fix:
 1) Provide a one-off default now (will be set on all existing rows with a null value for this column)
 2) Quit, and let me add a default in models.py
Select an option:
#

isnt it possible to use like something else for authing?

#

multiple things, discordUser being separated from the superuser admin login thing?

opaque rivet
#

you could change your User model, maybe remove the password field or set it to null=True, never tried it, but it could work

grim helm
#

after the make migrations?

opaque rivet
#

no, before the migration

grim helm
#

i dont have a password field in my discord usermodel, its inherited from the abstract model

opaque rivet
#

yes, it's extending django's User model, you'll have to edit it directly

grim helm
#

ah override it to null?

opaque rivet
#

yeah pretty much, so if the User model is found in django.contrib.auth... you navigate the source code until you find the model, then edit it

#

theoretically

grim helm

if you're using django, you can configure simple routing for static files, and simply return that image when you visit the url

@sio.event
async def getText(sid, data):
    await processTextifyResuest(sio=sio, sid=sid, data=data)
``` ```python
async def processTextifyResuest(sio, sid, data):
    print(f"[REQUEST RECEIVED] {sid}")

    with ProcessPoolExecutor(max_workers=1) as executor:
        future = executor.submit(getTextFromBase64, data)
        text = future.result()

        print(f"[PROCESSED] {sid}")

        await sio.emit("text", text, to=sid)
``` Is this the proper way to implement Process Pool on a ASGI socket-io server that is trying to do OCR on given images? The goal is to handle multiple clients trying to do OCR at the same time

``` also the server keeps dropping all connected clients when they try to get an OCR at the same time
quick cargo
#

well that looks like because you block the thread while waiting for the process to finish

lime mist
#

how to implement it properly then @quick cargo

quick cargo
#

use run_in_executor because this is in a async context

#

html?

lime mist
# 
async def processTextifyResuest(sio, sid, data):
    loop = asyncio.get_running_loop()

    print(f"[REQUEST RECEIVED] {sid}")

    with ProcessPoolExecutor() as pool:
        result = await loop.run_in_executor(pool, getTextFromBase64, data)

        print(f"[PROCESSED] {sid}")

        await sio.emit("text", result, to=sid)
``` @quick cargo so I implemented it like so and still it seems to drop clients when all of them make reqs at the same time
quick cargo
#

only when all of them make a request concurrently?

lime mist
#

I have 3 browsers open rn and I'm making req from one at a time as fast as i can so not really concurrently

# 
[REQUEST RECEIVED] ies_gpxbsR64z1hjAAAL
[PROCESSED] ies_gpxbsR64z1hjAAAL
[REQUEST RECEIVED] NYgtkwlwlRstueXrAAAR
[PROCESSED] NYgtkwlwlRstueXrAAAR
[REQUEST RECEIVED] S58OHOu2sCx_7uhxAAAT
[PROCESSED] S58OHOu2sCx_7uhxAAAT
``` I don't think it's processing requests concurrently either, as you can see it's only accepting another req after solve
# 
@sio.event
async def getText(sid, data):
    await processTextifyRequest(sio=sio, sid=sid, data=data)
#

can it be because I'm first receiving the data and then running a function @quick cargo ? is there a way to open an sio event on a new thread?

quick cargo
#

that shouldnt cause it because it'll be sent out as a task

#

do you not get any sio errosr?

maybe the huge base64 string that server receives to process is causing it? idk

Can anyone know how to make membership system in flask

#

Please @quick cargo

wooden ruin
#

@native tide you can start by planning out your sql tables, finding out how to "accept" payment, and thinking of ways to determine when a membership is expired. that being said, your question is a bit vague - try experimenting yourself!

Hi there, I'm working on a project which uses a chrome extension as a UI and I've already written all the code for the back-end in Python - would it be possible to run a Python script on Chrome like you might run a JS script?

native tide
#

but it's very unconventional thing to do

#

and also i dont think you will be able to make random users accessing your website run that python script

#

unless you mandate them to install that same extension

#

browsers arent built for running code written in python and other general purpose languages

native tide
forest phoenix
#

well I'm basically making a chrome extension for which I've written the entire back-end in python already

#

@native tide

#

and I'm just wondering whether there are tools out there to execute python files from the js or html of my chrome ext

opaque rivet
native tide
native tide
#

of doing things

#

browsers arent meant to speak python

#

but rather HTML, CSS and JS

#

JS isnt a hard language

#

you can write the front-end in it

#

and communicate with python's back-end just fine

toxic flame
#

yep

#

python as an api

forest phoenix
rotund parcel
#

Flask is good for making Python backends. Or Django

forest phoenix
#

As in the whole site uses python?

rotund parcel
#

I think Django or some full CMS let you build the whole site basically in Python, but no, usually that is not the case. It's a jumble of Python, JS, and HTML.

i am trying to generate the random number every time user register

def generate_mrn():
    return randint(1000,9000)

class pateint_registraion(FlaskForm):
    def __init__(self, mrn):
        self.mrn = generate_mrn()
    patient_name = StringField ('PatientName', validators=[DataRequired(), Length(min=2,max=10)])
    dateofbirth = DateField('Your Date of Birth', validators=[DataRequired()], format='%Y-%m-%d')
    email = StringField('Email', validators=[DataRequired(), Email(), Length(min=2,max=50)])
    password = PasswordField('Password', validators=[DataRequired()])
    confirm_password =  PasswordField('Confirm password' , validators=[DataRequired() , EqualTo('password')])
    submit = SubmitField('Sign Up')```
i create generate mrn function and then assign mrn = generate_mrn()
`flash(f'Your account is created with name {form.patient_name.data}! your MRN is {form.mrn}','success')`
then i display it on page
but it always showing the same random number

i am working on flask i have 1 login page
and two type of user 1 patient and 1 doctor both have diffrent regisration pages
i want to use 1 login page for both how i diffrentate between them during login and redirect to their corrosponding pages

dire fractal
#

Assuming you store unique info, use that

#

Such as username

glad patrol
#

i have username

#

but how to diffrenatie on login

#

like on login i am using email and password

dire fractal
#

is email unique?

glad patrol
#

ya

dire fractal
#

unique between both patient and doctor

glad patrol
#

yes

#

unique

dire fractal
#

Then just check the email on login, find the account and if its patient, do patient stuff

glad patrol
#

so you mean i dont need to use any decorator for this

dire fractal
#

Shouldnt have to

#

On login just check the type of person associated with the email

glad patrol
#

so i have to query from both tables

wooden ruin
#

how can i use ImageField instead of URLField when making images? also, how would i be able for a user to "upload" their picture, send it to django, and save it, if i can only send JSON data?, lastly, what does get_absolute_url() do?

i'm trying to learn how to use ImageField and FileField, but i don't know what things like upload_to mean and how to actually save an object that has the field. also, I'm wondering how i would be able to submit this file through JSON by using fetch, for example. if i'm sending a POST requst via fetch and using JSON as the body content, how can i send a file/image if all JSON is is just text inside an object?

inland copper
#

okay i will explain about

#

the FileFIELD first

#

all the files in django are stored as static or media

#

following me so far?

#

@wooden ruin

wooden ruin
#

yep

inland copper
#

okay

#

great

wooden ruin
#

static files are files like javascript or css files right? that are served in html documents kinda things right?

inland copper
#

yes and any files like images too

#

static files are used in development process

#

that is the developer uses to build the website

wooden ruin
#

Right

inland copper
#

media refers to the one the users uploads and needs to be saved in backend. like profile pics etc

#

this is a website i made

#

this uses the conept of stati and medi

#

a
