[nimble epoch]

never tried that

[opaque rivet]

try it out

[nimble epoch]

then i think i gotta change some of codes i got tired but yeah ill try it out thanks alot

[opaque rivet]

so, what is your final code? what is your solution?

[nimble epoch]

i changed my serializer

but wait... lol

why it doesnt save the picture

it deletes the picture but doesnt save the new pic

[opaque rivet]

yes, but what did you do to the serializer? I know that you changed it, but in what way?

[nimble epoch]

i didnt change the serializer

i mean i switched to AccountSerializer from UserSerializer

cause i didnt have profile picture field in it

[opaque rivet]

I don't think that will solve your issue. Your AccountSerializer still won't receive the username and the password, or does it?

[nimble epoch]

thats not actually a solution i been stupid

[nimble epoch]

it does i just created new users and it was working

[opaque rivet]

can you post the code?

[nimble epoch]

@api_view(['GET', 'POST'])
def register(request):
    serializer = UserSerializer(data=request.data)
    if serializer.is_valid():
        username = serializer.data['username']
        password = serializer.data['password']
        user = User.objects.create_user(username=username, password=password)
        return Response(True)
    return Response(serializer.errors)

@api_view(['POST'])
def upload_image(request, user_id):
    serializer = AccountSerializer(data=request.data)
    if serializer.is_valid():
        pic = serializer.data['pp']
        c_user = User.objects.get(id=int(user_id))
        account = Account.objects.get(user=c_user)
        account.pp = pic
        account.save()
        return Response(True)
    return Response(serializer.errors)

but there something wrong with it

AGAIN

it deletes the previous picture but doesnt save the new pic

and of course this is a kinda dirty code

this is actually a practice

you dont want to use it

[opaque rivet]

pass in all of your information through your request (instead of the query params) - then do serializer.save(), that will make it much cleaner.

[nimble epoch]

yeah

[nimble epoch]

this is a practice

not that important i just wanted to upload the image

Hey @drowsy knoll!

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:

https://paste.pythondiscord.com

[inland oak]

if not seralizer.is_valid():
    return('not valid')

In this way, your code will be more pytonish

At situation when there are a lot of checkers
It will keep your code from descending into multi nested if nightmare

(Plus think about changing status to 400 or something, 200 is not looking cool here)

Going to have soon same drf problem

Hey guys I need help with my socket program

This is the description: Your job is to create the special-purpose web server to provide the backend to this functionality. Due to
corporate requirements, you must use the socket interface, and cannot use any module implementing a web
server directly. The program will answer various web queries and return a result. Below is an example.
Example: With the web server running, enter in the following formula into any cell in Excel 2013 (or Excel
2016):
=WEBSERVICE(“http://localhost:1234/zip/98101)
Excel should then show a result of:

How do I tell my flask app that the resource I'm sending is css? Google says this Resource interpreted as Stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text/html and this is my code ```py
@app.route("/static/css/style.css")
def style():
with open("static/css/style.css") as file:
return file.read()

[grim leaf]

You can just put the CSS within the HTML and serve the HTML instead

[jovial mist]

Ok

How do I use flask.Response?

React page reloads and gives forbidden with django!

[sonic pivot]

Anyone know HTML for adding a chat bot window in the bottom right?

[inland oak]

just making sure, you know that it would involve more than HTML?
CSS, javascript for sure (some backendish)

in laziest choice, it could be inserted as some sort of iframe from another service

then it would be literally HTML only

pls help

[nimble epoch]

what you trying to do?

[nova nacelle]

i fixed it somehow

Now i wanna know can react-django integration work without using rest api?

[nimble epoch]

you should use rest cause you gotta use json data type to get or post data to react

unless you find a way to change it and itll get a bit complicated i think never used them without rest

[nova nacelle]

i did in js without api with ajax

[nova nacelle]

Problem is am using firebase

[nimble epoch]

never used firebase

[nova nacelle]

Can't define models ig

Can i just post data SOMEHOW to my backend?

Maybe ajax?

[nimble epoch]

using rest yeah

[nova nacelle]

smh without it

[nimble epoch]

dont think you can without changing your data to another type

[nova nacelle]

like what type

[nimble epoch]

in react its a type and django another. no difference you sending or getting data in both you gotta change the data type

[nimble epoch]

like when you want to show data in react from django you gotta change the data type to json. this is what what i know

[nova nacelle]

Hmm, let me check rq, thanks

[nimble epoch]

yw

[opaque rivet]

@nova nacelle REST is just a specification for APIs. For your react and django backend to communicate you will have to make a django API and make requests to your endpoints from your frontend.

Just like python has the requests library, JS has Axios which is great for sending requests to your django backend.

[nova nacelle]

Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0 this is all i get as a response when i post somthing

[quasi relic]

guys any idea what database should I go with with flask?

[opaque rivet]

@nova nacelle you're gonna have to show some code if you expect meaningful answer

[nova nacelle]

Am atm trying to find a way, that's it

Post requests doesn't work

[native tide]

@quasi relic sqllite or mongoDB are both good

I think there is a tutorial out there that uses MongoDB

[quasi relic]

ah okay thank you 🙏 I will check mongo then

[inland oak]

sqlite and mongoDB have completely different approaches
to answer which db to choose
you need to define, how much users you would have
and which... data are you going to store there

sqlite is general all around, good for starting development

postgresql/mysql is general all around, good for a more advanced web site
they are in their behavior actually almost sqlite, but more 'multithreading' friendly, more functional, more powerful than sqlite

[nova nacelle]

[inland oak]

mongodb is not... a regular sql database at all

[nova nacelle]

y ping me smh

[inland oak]

it is NoSQL database

it can work only for a very specific types of data, I usually see mongoDB as really big python dictionary

it has no regular relationship, which regular sql database uses

usually used for optimization of some... more bulker data storaging

[native tide]

I print this ```py
request.environ.get('HTTP_X_REAL_IP', request.remote_addr)

[nimble epoch]

probably your vpn trash

[native tide]

google shows vpn ip

[nimble epoch]

google pretending. just want you to feel comfortable while there something else happening in the background

[native tide]

LOL

[nimble epoch]

I knew something wrong with google

[native tide]

even this shows my vpn ip https://nordvpn.com/what-is-my-ip/

this https://www.expressvpn.com/what-is-my-ip

EVERYTHING EXCEPT MY SITE

xDDD

[nimble epoch]

maybe because these all are published on google servers

[native tide]

ahh

[nimble epoch]

google is too powerful

[native tide]

XD

[dapper tusk]

are you connecting to your website you host locally

[native tide]

yea

[dapper tusk]

then the VPN will not do anything

VPNs don't apply to requests in our local network, since your local network is not accessible from the wide internet where the VPN server is

if you were to say, put your website on some crappy freehost and then connect to it, the VPN will work correctly

[native tide]

ahh, yea, i understand, thank you!

[opaque rivet]

@nova nacelle what is your forms enctype? If you show some code then you can help people help you.

code py for weapon_steam, weapon_nice in weapons: weapon_rows += "<tr><td>Stat</td><td>value</td><tr><td>Stat1</td><td>Value2</td>" why on the site it looks like this stat| 24564 | value| 17% | it should be like this stat1 | 24564 | Value2| 17% |

[native tide]

bc you made a new table row with "tr" in the middle but instead you should just close it at the end and then it should look like what you want

[opaque rivet]

apart from that, why append html to your file like that? use jinja2 templates 🤦‍♂️

[native tide]

true you could do it like that

<table>
 {% for weapon_steam,weapon_nice in weapons %}
 <tr>
  <td>Stat</td>
  <td>{{ weapon_steam }}</td>
  <td>value</td>
  <td>{{ weapon_nice }}</td>
 </tr>
 {% endfor %}
</table>

hi guys, i am trying to read .GBFF files and extract information out of it. has anyone ever worked with .GBFF files?

looking for something like gbff to json converter but unable to find anything useful

[lime fox]

hello good people, using php can i structure a query like this ?

$query = "SELECT * FROM university_table WHERE uni_nationalrank $NationalRank";
$result = mysqli_query($con, $query);

taking into account that the value $NationalRank holds is :

>=0 AND <11

would that work the same as just the normal query:

SELECT * FROM university_table WHERE uni_nationalrank >=0 AND <11

[lime fox]

And also how do i print the results from a search

        $query = "SELECT * FROM university_table WHERE uni_nationalrank >=0 AND <11";
        $result = mysqli_query($con, $query);
        echo ($result['uni_nationalrank']);

i tried using this

which resulted in this error

Warning: Trying to access array offset on value of type bool in C:\xampp\htdocs\Website\Websiteattempt (1).php on line 19

[stone citrus]

If you want a quick and dirty way to do it, you should just concatenate in the variable e.g.

  $query = "SELECT * FROM university_table WHERE uni_nationalrank" . $NationalRank;

providing $NationalRank is a string literal of ">=0 AND < 11"

[lime fox]

This is the selection box, i set the value to that, does it mean that its a string and works correctly?

                   <select name="NationalRank" id="in_NR">
                      <option value=">=0">Don't mind</option>
                      <option value=">=0 AND <11">Top 10</option>
                      <option value=">=0 AND <26">Top 25</option>
                      <option value=">=0 AND <51">Top 50</option>
                      <option value=">=0 AND <101">Top 100</option>
                    </select>

[stone citrus]

That could potentially work, yes

However, i'd recommend not putting any sql inside your form values

[lime fox]

what other way do you recommend doing it ?

[sonic pivot]

Anyone able to help with making a chat pop up window on my website

[stone citrus]

You'd probably want to just set the values like this

<select name="NationalRank" id="in_NR">
    <option value="na">Don't mind</option>
    <option value="top_10">Top 10</option>
    <option value="top_25">Top 25</option>
    <option value="top_50">Top 50</option>
    <option value="top_100">Top 100</option>
</select>

Then in your backend construct the sql from these values

$NationalRank = $_POST["NationalRank"];
$RankLowerBound = 0;
$RankUpperBound = null;
switch ($NationalRank) {
    case "top_10":
        $RankUpperBound = 10;
        break;
    case "top_25":
        $RankUpperBound = 25;
        break;
    case "top_50":
        $RankUpperBound = 50;
        break;
    case "top_100":
        $RankUpperBound = 100;
        break;
}
$BaseQuery = "SELECT * FROM university_table WHERE uni_nationalrank WHERE uni_nationalrank > ". $RankLowerBound;
if($RankLowerBound) {
  $BaseQuery .= " AND <= ". mysqli_real_escape_string($RankUpperBound);
}

Then use $BaseQuery in place of your original one

Basically what we're doing here is removing the sql from the form value and instead constructing it on the backend

[lime fox]

thank you very much but what is switch and case ive never seen that

[stone citrus]

Right yeah sorry, it's basically an alternative of doing a bunch of else ifs, so instead of doing

if($NationalRank == "top_10") {
  do something
}
else if($NationalRank == "top_20") {
  do something
}
else if...

we can do

switch($the_variable_you_want_to_check) {
  case "is it's value equal to this?":
    yes, so do this...
  case "is it's value equal to this?":
    ...
}

i see, i have 5 of these boxes to do would i just copy and paste 5 times and change the variables ?

[cedar mortar]

Does anyone know of a good way of managing circular imports in django? other than 'apps' or importing the file instead of the model itself?

[cobalt spruce]

how do you reverse a string?

[cedar mortar]

string_name[::-1]

[cobalt spruce]

Thanks

[opaque rivet]

pretty sure the "usual" way about this is going into the module's AppConfig, and adding:

def ready(self):
  # import stuff here

but I guess that is the "apps" way you're talking about

[cedar mortar]

yup the same err

[native tide]

@opaque rivet if its a test deploy or u already got a domain i would deploy it on heroku bc its easy to setup and to upload bc of the github connection. and if you like you can automate it even with some github actions

soup = BeautifulSoup(req.content, 'html.parser')

# extract the first table
table = soup.find_all('table')[1]

# write the content to the file
File = open('PGRM4example.csv', 'w')
Data = csv.writer(File)

rowlist=[]

for row in table.findAll('tr'):
    celllist = []
    for cell in row.findAll (['th','td']):
        text=cell.text
        celllist.append(text)
    rowlist.append(celllist)
    Data.writerow(rowlist)

for item in rowlist:
    print(' '.join(item))

I believe that's what you're trying to achieve?

I just replaced your print statement with Data.writerow()

Or recommend other discord channel

[viscid valley]

With this project. I certainly hope not.

[keen ravine]

So, is there any discord channel I can find help in?

[viscid valley]

No, what you're doing is mean. You're trying to hack into someones outlook account.

If you have questions about non-nefarious projects. People are more than willing to help you.

[tribal pewter]

is there any loop?

and are you using django?

[rancid oak]

Nvm yea it was in a loop i got it fixed :p. Thanks

[native tide]

Try this : ```{% for value in value-list %}

<table class="table-content">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Surname</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>{value.Name}</td>
<td>{value.Surname}</td>

hello

anybody knows how execute python app into webpage ?

[native tide]

I need help with python django. Can someone help?

I get an error

"decimal.Decimal"

And i want to try convert this to a flot value or something

[native tide]

I figured the issue was I set the width/height to the div in stead of thr img

A game database dashboard

[hazy beacon]

Hey if I have stuff imported in my webapp like python libs (pillow for example). Does the web host solve the dependancies or do u need to compile the libs yourself

[vestal hound]

depends on where you’re hosting

and how

but generally you need to provide a requirements.txt at least

[native tide]

hey anyone online here?

i need some help

so the css file is not loading ...i migrated the assets ...even though it shows like this

any solution

[terse vapor]

U can load css file like <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{{ url_for('static', filename='file.css') }}">

[native tide]

nope didnt work

[terse vapor]

did u change the url_for into ur folder?

and to ur file name?

[native tide]

i copied the scripts of the css file and added them inside the style tag in the html file itself and it worked

the styles and animations are okay but images are not loading

[wheat skiff]

hi, i need to make a chat in django, can some one help me?

[terse vapor]

Im not really into django but this can be a introduction of a chat app https://getstream.io/blog/realtime-chat-django-angular/

[opal portal]

django, when i ran the runserver command i received an type error like this TypeError: XXXViewSet() received an invalid keyword 'method'

what is wrong here and how to fix it

[native tide]

U did declare the static and media root and url path in the settings.py,right? mby theres an error bc your file tree looks kinda messy. If not pls send a screen shot of the web dev tool console and network tab bc that often helps

[native tide]

does it show in which line the error is and if so pls show the code

[wheat skiff]

hi, i need to make a chat in django, can some one help me?

[native tide]

u already got an answer above but as alternative u can use django-channels

[maiden tulip]

Is it still required to validate an email pattern for a form or is <input type="email" sufficient?
From MDN docs:

The <input> element's value attribute contains a DOMString which is automatically validated as conforming to e-mail syntax. More specifically, there are three possible value formats that will pass validation:

so it is checked against a pattern already or not?

[opal portal]

#views.py
class ContributionViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    queryset = Contribution.objects.all()
    serializer_class = ContributionSerializer
    permission_classes = [permissions.IsAuthenticatedOrReadOnly]
   
    # Get list of contributions by faculty_id. Example URL : api/contribution/contributions/by-faculty/1/
    @action(detail=False, method=['GET'], url_path='by-faculty/(?P<faculty_id>\d+)/$')
    def faculty(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        queryset = Contribution.objects.filter(faculty=self.kwargs['faculty_id'])
        serializer = ContributionSerializer(queryset, many=True)
        if not queryset:
            return Response({"detail": "Not found."}, status=status.HTTP_404_NOT_FOUND)
        return Response(serializer.data)

#urls.py
router = DefaultRouter()
router.register(r'contributions/', ContributionViewSet)

urlpatterns = [
    path('', include(router.urls)),
]

urlpatterns = format_suffix_patterns(urlpatterns)

this is my code

[native tide]

settings.py

[native tide]

in the error message it says unexpected keyword "method" so you probably need to remove/or change the syntax of the method parameter in the action decorator.
hope that helps

[opal portal]

oh

it should be methods instead of method

but now it raised new error

wrong regex at the url_path param

[native tide]

@native tide that looks right. just to be sure you also added the static url in the urls.py? and pls show the dev tool console and network tab

[native tide]

@opal portal can you show the other urls or rather where "by-faculty" is defined

[native tide]

@maiden tulip i tried it and it does only check for "@" but not if its empty or a ends with .com or sth like that

[opal portal]

@native tide what do you means ?

by-faculty is not defined

[maiden tulip]

yeah, "" is an allowed input, meaning the user didnt enter an input. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input/email#value

[opal portal]

@native tide this is the error

[native tide]

ok sry but im not good with regex so i cant help you anymore

[opal portal]

oh no problem. appreciate your help

[native tide]

yeah thats why you should probably check it yourself too and dont rely on smth.

[maiden tulip]

@native tide no, to check if email is empty, you use required="true"

[native tide]

np but i dont understand regex nor i understand what you fully want to do so its better to not help than giving you wrong info

[native tide]

yeah ok you can do it like too but i would never

[maiden tulip]

question is basically: if the browser by standard already checks if it is a valid email, what is the upside of having an additional pattern?
Validation is done on Backend again of course

[wheat skiff]

Can you help me with doing this? im new to django

[native tide]

ok i thought you meant backend as well but sure you are right with that

[maiden tulip]

no, only validating in frontend would be stupid as sb could just send the manipulated form over REST/GraphQL

Basically: Do we trust the users brower on their email pattern matching

[native tide]

yeah i tried it myself and kinda succeeded but i would rather suggest you good tutorials you could benefit much as a beginner with django-channels

[native tide]

yeah thats what i meant you should always check it again with some kind of 3rd party package or coded yourself

[wheat skiff]

Can you send pls easy and good toutorials?

[native tide]

@wheat skiff sure

[viscid valley]

Did my solution work ?

[native tide]

@wheat skiff for django-channels there are some old but still viable tutorials bc its didnt change that much mby the syntax a little bit.
A whole playlist. He explains it kinda fast so you goota have some knowledge atleast the basics.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wv5jlmJs2sU&list=PLLRM7ROnmA9EnQmnfTgUzCfzbbnc-oEbZ
I did skip through this and its almost identical to the first of the other series but slower
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLwu1NqU1rE
and for socket.io another solution for an chat app
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ig1nqsKBydw
Hes gonna do a tutorial series about it if you can still wait some days

[distant trout]

is it bad that i prefer class based react components over functions?

[native tide]

i personally think its never bad to prefer smth over another but u should atleast also know it if you are asked to use them
For example i personally prefer cbv(class-based-views) in django bc there are faster and easier to write and give you prebuild stuff but in react i think only the syntax changes if im not mistaking. (sry i dont rlly use react)

[distant trout]

ahh i see. Yeah i am going familiarize myself with functional components aswell.

I think functional components is just a little bit less code to type.

[native tide]

yeah i dont rlly use react but when i did i didnt rlly saw the difference between those other than the syntax and mby the length of the code. its always good to know an alternative or extension to ur already existing knowledge

[nimble epoch]

class base views in some frameworks like react are more verbose. you can customize it. you can add more functionality to it which is function based views in django.

[distant trout]

Interesting, yeah when i use class based components, it feels like i am being more explicit with the code

[nimble epoch]

true

[shadow grove]

Anyone here know anything about or have any experience with Fast API

Thinking about using it for an upcoming project, the automatic doc generation is probably the greatest appeal for me thus far

[native tide]

Python is only used for backend. Frontend is all html/css

And tbh it's fairly easy

[buoyant shuttle]

ive been meaning to ask, how to i immitate typing effect on my website

[glad patrol]

can any1 know how to fix it

hey i need some help with dash and plotly, my intention is to put a local image into the website but not know how
my initial idea whas this

import dash_html_components as html

app.layout = html.Div(children=[
    html.H1(myheading),
    html.Img(src=variableWithPath)
    ])

the html.H1(myheading) works fine, rendering a title in the site but the html.img dont

so, how can i import local image into my dash aplication?

[native tide]

Hello guys

Anyone have an idea of how I can bypass cloudflare with selenium

It keeps loading and i cant get to the site :(\

[opaque rivet]

functional components 100%. Not all JS libraries support react classes (some are functional-components only - due to hooks). You get access to hooks. Much less repeating yourself (e.g. binding each function in your class in the constructor - yikes).

and that also means you can write your own hooks and have whole functions as one liners in your component (without the need for a constructor)

[distant trout]

ah i see. am i able to use both? for example some components class based and some functional? or is that a bad practice?

[opaque rivet]

yeah, you can use both - if you're new to React then it's taught as class components first. Over time you'll just transition to functional components.

and on that note if you continue to learn react, also learn redux and framer motion for animations 🙂 and take a look at some component libraries, chakra UI is the most popular and antd is awesome. speeds up design a lot.

[distant trout]

oh great, yeah I haven't looked at other react libraries yet, besides nextjs. I'll take a look at redux

[opaque rivet]

mhm redux is a must, a majority of large react apps use it for state management (plus it's pretty simple once you actually understand the concept over time).
also good choice on next 😉

[distant trout]

awesome, thanks 😄

[mortal mango]

                    <form action="/settings?guild={{ guild_id }}" method="get">
                        <label for="prefix">Prefix: </label>
                        <input id="prefix" type="text" name="prefix">
                        <input type="submit" value="OK">
                    </form>
```I have this form but the form redirects to settings?prefix=prefix_here. Is there a way to make it redirect to settings?prefix=prefix_here&guild=guild_id_here?

[opaque rivet]

you'll need another input which contains the guild_id data, it can be hidden and can have a value which you pass from your view, then it should also be in the URI

[mortal mango]

what type would the input be?

[opaque rivet]

hidden

[mortal mango]

it worked. Thanks!

[opaque rivet]

🙂

[mortal mango]

if request.method == 'get': I have this if statement in my view but it's returning false. Do you know why?

the form is get

[opaque rivet]

anybody used spring boot? or unrelated to that, any packages which auto-generate api docs? (or would it be preferred to write your own api docs)?

[opaque rivet]

you are making a GET request to /settings?guild={{ guild_id }}&prefix=...&..., does your view handle that endpoint?

[mortal mango]

yeah

it bypasses the if statement if request.method == 'get':

[opaque rivet]

could you show code? could you print request.GET to see if you're actually making requests to that endpoint?

[mortal mango]

k

<QueryDict: {'prefix': ['exo.'], 'guild': ['705619297342455888']}>

[opaque rivet]

I'm pretty positive that request methods must be uppercase, GET.

[mortal mango]

oh it worked

thanks!

[sonic pivot]

Is anyone able to help me with making a Chat bot Window on a website, using JS, HTML and CSS as I am not too familar with them

And how I would then embed my bot code that is already written into the chat window

[opal portal]

@viscid valley

[viscid valley]

@sonic pivot and @opal portal I'll help both of you here.

[opal portal]

thank you. i tried 2 serializer like this

class ContributionSerializer(serializers.HyperlinkedModelSerializer):
    file = serializers.FileField(max_length=None, allow_empty_file=False, required=True)
    submission_date = serializers.DateTimeField(format="%d-%m-%Y")
    approval_date = serializers.DateTimeField(format="%d-%m-%Y")
    update_date = serializers.DateTimeField(format="%d-%m-%Y")

    class Meta:
        model = Contribution
        fields = '__all__'
        

class ContributionCreateSerializer(serializers.HyperlinkedModelSerializer):
    file = serializers.FileField(max_length=None, allow_empty_file=False, required=True)

    class Meta:
        model = Contribution
        fields = ['title', 'description', 'file']

[viscid valley]

I believe you want to override the save method?

[opal portal]

i'm not sure what method i want to override since i dont fully understand them

serializer save is to save the instance into database ?

[viscid valley]

You're trying to update multiple models and such during the save of one model?

[opal portal]

class Contribution(models.Model):
    author = models.ForeignKey(Info, 
                               on_delete=models.CASCADE, 
                               related_name='contributions')
    title = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    description = models.TextField()
    faculty = models.ForeignKey(Faculty,
                                on_delete=models.CASCADE,
                                related_name='contributions')
    slug = models.SlugField(max_length=255,unique_for_date='approval_date') 
    file = models.FileField(upload_to=get_path,
                            validators=[FileValidator(allowed_extensions=['doc', 'docx', 'pdf', 'png', 'jpg', 'jpeg'],
                                                      max_size=20*1024*2014)])
    approval_date = models.DateTimeField(default=None, blank=True, null=True)
    submission_date = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
    update_date = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True)
    status = models.CharField(max_length=10, 
                              choices=STATUS, 
                              default='pending')

So i have a model like this, when create a new instance, i only want user to be able to fill in title, description and file. update/submission date will automatically add when an instance is created/modified. author and faculty information will be retrieve from the current logged in user. so how can i make a serializer for that ? or may be multiple serializers ?

[viscid valley]

Yes, you would override the save method and do all of this.

Then use super... save the model.

[opal portal]

in views.py i do this

class ContributionViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    queryset = Contribution.objects.all()
    serializer_class = ContributionSerializer
    permission_classes = [permissions.IsAuthenticatedOrReadOnly]
    

    def create(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        serializer = ContributionCreateSerializer(data=request.data)
        current_info = self.request.user.info
        serializer.is_valid(raise_exception=True)
        serializer.save(author=current_info, faculty=current_info.faculty)
        recipient = Info.objects.get(faculty_id=serializer.validated_data.get('faculty_id'), role_id=2)
        recipient_email = recipient.email
        send_mail(
            'New Contribution Notification',
            'A new contribution has been submitted within your faculty.\nPlease review within 14 days.',
            '[e-mail]',
            recipient_email, # coordinator emails here
            fail_silently=False,
        )
        headers = self.get_success_headers(serializer.data)
        return Response(serializer.data, status=status.HTTP_201_CREATED, headers=headers)

it get so clumpsy and messy

[viscid valley]

        if getattr(self, '_image_changed', True):
            small=rescale_image(self.image,width=100,height=100)
            self.image_small=SimpleUploadedFile(name,small_pic)
        super(Model, self).save(*args, **kwargs)```

[viscid valley]

That's an example of overriding save method for a model.

[opal portal]

like this, i only want to show the title/description and file

[viscid valley]

You def save, do your logic then use super(ModelName, self).save(*args, **kwargs)

Oh set editable to false.

In the model.

[opal portal]

model or serializer ?

[viscid valley]

editable=False for the field.

DRF should hide it.

[opal portal]

things is more complicated than just hiding. let me explain from the beginning

[viscid valley]

Or take it out of fields in DRF view

Well there's a lot of things, so one thing at a time.

You want to hide those fields in the API?

Can you show me the view for it.

Got it

Where's the view for it?

[opal portal]

oh, cant paste the code

class ContributionViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    queryset = Contribution.objects.all()
    serializer_class = ContributionSerializer
    permission_classes = [permissions.IsAuthenticatedOrReadOnly]
    

    def create(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        serializer = ContributionCreateSerializer(data=request.data)
        current_info = self.request.user.info
        serializer.is_valid(raise_exception=True)
        serializer.save(author=current_info, faculty=current_info.faculty)
        recipient = Info.objects.get(faculty_id=serializer.validated_data.get('faculty_id'), role_id=2)
        recipient_email = recipient.email
        send_mail(
            'New Contribution Notification',
            'A new contribution has been submitted within your faculty.\nPlease review within 14 days.',
            '[e-mail]',
            recipient_email, # coordinator emails here
            fail_silently=False,
        )
        headers = self.get_success_headers(serializer.data)
        return Response(serializer.data, status=status.HTTP_201_CREATED, headers=headers)

this is what i have for now

[humble oar]

ok

[opal portal]

so i am trying to build an cms system that allow user to upload file and staff can set the status (pending/approved/denied), and the staff will receive mail noti whenever a new contribution is uploaded

yeah so messy

[humble oar]

so that's your project.

[opal portal]

well yeah, basically

[humble oar]

what's problem.

[viscid valley]

Ok, if you want to limit fields

[opal portal]

the uploading and mail noti not work as expectation

[humble oar]

I just start to learn python

[viscid valley]

We need to do that in def get_queryset(self):

[opal portal]

i want to limit fields when creating new instance through api, but when retrieve list of instances there will be all

[humble oar]

are using Django?

[opal portal]

yeah, Django and DRF

[humble oar]

ok

[viscid valley]

Can I see your serializers.ModelSerializer?

[humble oar]

have to tried Stack overflow ?

[opal portal]

        fields = '__all__'
        

class ContributionCreateSerializer(serializers.HyperlinkedModelSerializer):
    file = serializers.FileField(max_length=None, allow_empty_file=False, required=True)

    class Meta:
        model = Contribution
        fields = ['title', 'description', 'file']

i tried this

[viscid valley]

Ok see fields?

fields = '__all__'

You want to limit that correct?

[opal portal]

yeah, that's for when retrieving a list of instances

like when method = post there will only be 3 fields but when method = get, i want all fields

also the uploaded file got renamed into something and lost the file extension

im not sure why is that but i guess because of the file validators

[viscid valley]

Ok, so you want to rename files upon upload?

[opal portal]

no

[viscid valley]

Files are losing their extension?

[opal portal]

like this

[viscid valley]

Ok, so one problem at a time.

[opal portal]

but let put that aside

yeah

[viscid valley]

I'm totally confused too.

Lets start from the top.

When users get a specific viewset you want information pre-populated?

[opal portal]

yeah something like that

do you want to teamviewer and have a look at my code ?

[viscid valley]

Here is fine.

So are you trying to populate a form?

[opal portal]

no form, just directly through api

[viscid valley]

That's not really the job of DRF.

Ok, so default value.

That can be handled in the create method.

The requests object has user information

You can use to query other models.

request.user.id

[opal portal]

so now we ovveride the create method of serializer ?

?

[viscid valley]

Here? See the create method?

You can query/update/save other models.

[opal portal]

if my user have a foreign key like this fk1= models.ForeignKey(FK1), and FK1 have a fields, say fieldA. can i get the value of fieldA by request.user.fk1.fieldA ?

[viscid valley]

requests.user.id will simply give you the users id.

you can then do Model.get(userid=request.user.id)

Assuming that's the foreign keys field name

[opal portal]

erm i dont want to get user id, so each user will is linked to a profile model which will have foreignkey. so how do i access the profile's foreignkey through user ?

or any fields of profile model ?

[viscid valley]

You want to query the profile model from request.user?

[opal portal]

yeah

[viscid valley]

Do dir(request.user)

Show me the profile model.

[viscid valley]

Also, you can do dir(object) in Django by setting break points in your django code then making request.

[opal portal]

class Info(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    address = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    dob = models.DateField(auto_now=False, auto_now_add=False, blank=True)
    phone = models.CharField(max_length=11)
    email = models.EmailField(max_length=100)
    role = models.ForeignKey(Role, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
    faculty = models.ForeignKey(Faculty, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True)
    pass

    def __str__(self):
        return self.name

[viscid valley]

How do your user model point to this?

[opal portal]

you see, my contribution model also have a faculty foreignkey

[viscid valley]

Are you using djangos auth user?

[opal portal]

erm, a custom user model

[viscid valley]

Ok, paste it

[opal portal]

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser
from ..info.models import Info


class User(AbstractUser):
    # username = models.CharField(max_length=50, unique=True, default='Anonymous')
    # password = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    # reference key to info
    info = models.ForeignKey(Info, on_delete=models.CASCADE, blank=True, null=True)

    REQUIRED_FIELDS = []
    # # session_token file t store token, default = 0 means it haven't already login
    # session_token = models.CharField(max_length=10, default=0)

this part is not mine, my friend did it, so im not very sure

all he did is just adding a foreignkey

[viscid valley]

Ok, so what field are you trying to update first in create method from request.user information?

In your settings.py is AUTH_USER_MODEL set to something?

[opal portal]

user.User

it is set to the model above

[viscid valley]

OK

So does request object have User?

[opal portal]

yes

[viscid valley]

OK, do dir(request.User)

[opal portal]

can you elaborate ?

[viscid valley]

Are you familiar with setting breakpoints?

If not, this will be life changing.

[opal portal]

not at all

[viscid valley]

Oh man, you've been flying blind.

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pydis.com/

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

Hi, sorry in advance if this is the wrong channel however,
im trying to make a simple request with a username:pass@host:port proxy and getting errors.

with open("proxies.txt", "r") as f:
    for line in f:
        line = line.replace("\n", "")

        proxylist.append(proxies)

print(proxylist)


for proxy in proxylist:
    session = requests.Session()
    r = session.get(url, verify=False, proxies=proxy, headers={'User-Agent': 'Chrome'})
    print(r.status_code)
    print(r.json()["ip"])

Error:

Exception has occurred: ProxyError
HTTPSConnectionPool(host='www.google.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: / (Caused by ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', FileNotFoundError(2, 'No such file or directory')))

The proxies print out so it has to be an issue with requests or the proxies.
Ive also tested the proxies with a proxy tester and they are alive.

Dont use fstrings for sql queries

Use the api the module offers

[warm fossil]

so i made a front end for my website and I am trying to add a flask back end however only some of the css and images are loading. I have added my css and images into the static folder outside the templates folder however only some images are loading

For example

As you can see the top image loads however the background image does not load

I blocked out some sensitive information

[quiet garden]

Uh hey

[jovial mist]

How can I store sensitive information on a client's computer?

[mortal mango]

oh ok

query = db.execute("update prefix set prefix_name = %s where guild_id = %s", (prefix, guild_id))

this is my code but it doesn't update the record in the database and doesn't return an error

do you know why?

[jovial mist]

You might want to surround the first %s with quotes

[mortal mango]

only the first?

[jovial mist]

I think so

[mortal mango]

k let me try it

[opaque rivet]

if you're just using raw queries to learn sql, go for it, but in reality we should be using the django orm.

[jovial mist]

please help

[mortal mango]

I'm using sql because it's easy to understand. Models and orm kind of confuse me so that's why I'm just using psycopg2.

[opaque rivet]

you can store information in cookies, it shouldn't be anything highly sensitive (e.g. username / password)

does anyone know the most popular backend framework?

[jovial mist]

Is there any way to store them?

[opaque rivet]

cookies are saved in the user's browser. I don't really know what you're asking, yes you store information within the cookies - they are a key value pair

[jovial mist]

Sorry I meant is there a way to store the username and password in the browser?

[opaque rivet]

yes, but you don't want to do that. (again, by using cookies). Instead, you can store a token which is unique to each account in the browser to be able to identify each request (instead of relying on their account information to be sent as cookies)

you can set cookies from backend, from your server's response:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Set-Cookie
or using JS, look at the js-cookie library

[jovial mist]

Wouldn't that token be as sensitive as the username and password because it allows access to the user's account?

Sorry I'm kinda new to web development

[opaque rivet]

Yes. Cookies can be stolen, e.g. by XSS (I don't really know much about security):
https://medium.com/@laur.telliskivi/pentesting-basics-cookie-grabber-xss-8b672e4738b2

However your server will also have CORS which restricts requests to your server made from other origins. (requests not made from your webpage). If the attacker stole your username/password cookies, they can simply log into your account and make any request they want, from the same origin.

[jovial mist]

Thanks!

[mortal mango]

query = db.execute("update prefix set prefix_name = %s where guild_id = %s", (prefix, guild_id))
This code isn't updating the record in the database. Django or psycopg2 isn't returning an error either. Does anyone know why?

[jovial mist]

Did you run db.commit()?

Also I think that update and set should be capitalized so that it looks more readable

[mortal mango]

it says that the cursor object doesn't have the attribute commit

query = db.execute("UPDATE prefix SET prefix_name = %s WHERE guild_id = %s", (prefix, guild_id))
db.commit()

[jovial mist]

Do the commit on the database, not the cursor

[mortal mango]

db.commit() AttributeError: 'psycopg2.extensions.cursor' object has no attribute 'commit'

oh ok

[mortal mango]

it worked. Thanks!!

[jovial mist]

How do I prevent CORS on my Flask server?

[humble oar]

[humble oar]

[dull coral]

[opaque rivet]

no (but you can implement your own nodejs api for it)

[misty dune]

Hi, maybe this is a stupid question, but why would you use flask over something like express? I have used both and I can't really find any good answers for either one

[delicate nest]

idk cuz express is javascript

[misty dune]

well yeah true, but if one was "better" than the other or had some major feature/reason to use it then I would be more than willing to use either

[delicate nest]

just use whatever u want

lol use scratch if u wanted

[delicate nest]

flask is probably easier to use

[misty dune]

I'd honestly say it's about equal

[delicate nest]

use sanic

ez to use and it's not js

and its decently fast

[misty dune]

I mean

don't get me wrong I love flask

I use it all the time

I just keep seeing people use express

and it makes me wonder why they would chooose that over flask

[delicate nest]

cuz it works better for them

[opaque rivet]

you can use <Component />, why not?

[opaque rivet]

lots more people use express because JS is specifically a web-dev language

[misty dune]

got it @opaque rivet

is there any other benefit?

and I also have been looking into react and using it with flask

and it is really confusing me

if I use react with flask is the whole routing part of Flask obsolete?

I was watching miguel grinberg show a flask api with express where there was no more routing anymore and apparently a python server is not the best option, so is it even worth using python with react?

I guess I also just don't really get the point of react in genearl

sorry for the rambling, I'm just really confused

[serene prawn]

You still have to get data somehow

[opaque rivet]

React is an SPA. (single page application) How that works is you have a barebones HTML file, and the React JS content is hydrated onto the page. That means you only need to render one HTML page for the entire react app (e.g. you visit the root url /, it will render this page (rendering your whole React app)).

You will often do client side routing inside of server side routing, as now everything is client-side rendered (this is bad for SEO by the way).

[serene prawn]

So your backend app should provide it 😉

[opaque rivet]

I have been wanting to learn node.js and express for a long time, it's simple like flask, but I don't want to leave django 😦

[misty dune]

but I mean with my flask app i would be rendering the templates anymore

[opaque rivet]

nope

[misty dune]

or passing variables to my templates and stuff

so all I would do is return 1 empty page?

[opaque rivet]

well, you return one single page and the rest is done on the client-side

then your flask backend just serves as an API

[misty dune]

yeah so just api

[opaque rivet]

you can also sprinkle react is templates but i've never tried

[misty dune]

hmmm

[serene prawn]

Express is really basic imo 😅

Kinda like flask

[misty dune]

i think its easier tbh

so again maybe dumb question, but could i have multiple single page applications in react

and what would be flask's role in "routing" or whatever those pages

[serene prawn]

I think flask is obsolete now because of fastapi

And for js you can use something like nestjs

[opaque rivet]

all of the routing is done on the client side, the routing is no longer handled by flask.

[misty dune]

thats crazy to me

[opaque rivet]

you render your React app once, then that is your application.

[misty dune]

so you learn flask

a lot of stuff

then switch to react

[opaque rivet]

specifically the routing is done with React-Router

[misty dune]

and then you only use flask as an api server

[serene prawn]

Right

[opaque rivet]

pretty much 😄 just like any backend framework, really

[serene prawn]

I wouldn't write any app that might have more that 50 lines of js code without some kind of framework

[opaque rivet]

I think I'm gonna move to node.js but I have no real reason behind it except that it's more popular

I learnt django for so long just to drop it... I am at a crossroad

[serene prawn]

So moving to node just to move? 😅

[opaque rivet]

For me its just because of popularity / employability

[serene prawn]

I like django but fastapi does things so much better 🤔 but sadly it misses some features

[opaque rivet]

Actually I think what I'll do is just learn node.js basics and stick with my stack, and probably try out fastapi

fastapi would be more like flask right? barebones?

[serene prawn]

@opaque rivet Not really, it's flask on steroids 🙂

[native tide]

hello, i'm making a web app in python, i'm a beginner in this language though (and in programming in general). I was wondering, what exactly this does : py app = Flask(__name__)

[serene prawn]

Creates an instance of Flask

Or you're wondering what __name__ does?

[native tide]

i'm wondering what __name__ does

[serene prawn]

name should be name of a current file

Or it would be __main__ if ran directly

Within a module, the module’s name (as a string) is available as the value of the global variable __name__.
Module = File

[native tide]

ok thx, i have another question

[serene prawn]

I kinda don't like django because it's hard to use with openapi...

You either have to define schema by hand or write custom input/output serializers for each view

[opaque rivet]

openAPI is the thing used to write api docs right?

[serene prawn]

Yep

[native tide]

what is @spare ridge.route('/') ? and more generally, why some functions have this @instance.xxx() before their def ?

[serene prawn]

FastAPI would require more complex setup but it allows for more freedom i think

it's a decorator

@

Basically what @app.route does is registering route inside of your flask app

So if you access your flask from say browser it will return "Hello World"

Assuming you requested the root page

[serene prawn]

Also flask doesn't allow to register routes with specific methods (Get, Post, etc)? 😅

[native tide]

I get this after paste-ing the local address of my web app in my browser

this is my code (ignore the comments)

this is the error

what could be the problem ?

[serene prawn]

@native tide Share the actual error

[native tide]

do you want all the traceback ?

[serene prawn]

Sure

[serene prawn]

Template not found 🙂

flask is trying to find them in templates directory by default

So create one and put your template in it

[native tide]

i thought i did, let me see

ok

my app.py file was in a directory

and my html file in templates

it worked when i moved app.py in a directory "higher" than templates

how can I make it work while keeping app.py in an "equally high" directory ?

i can make a quick diagram to be clearer

[serene prawn]

you can pass templates_folder argument when creating flask instance

[native tide]

thanks for your help

[serene prawn]

np

Did you figure out what to pass as a parameter?

[native tide]

let me read the doc 🙂

[serene prawn]

try "../templates"

If that wouldn't work then it needs an absolute path

so you can try

from pathlib import Path
Path("../templates").absolute()

[native tide]

ok it works

thanks !

[misty tulip]

is anyone familiar with cpanel?

[regal raven]

yeah from like 15 years ago

[jovial mist]

How do I use CORS?

I put this header on my response, but it does nothing

[marble spade]

Anyone know how to fix this in CSS:

[inland oak]

https://pypi.org/project/Flask-Cors/

[jovial mist]

Thanks!

[native tide]

<img src="Denis_Villeneuve_Cannes_2018" />
is this the wrong way of using image tag?

[green snow]

its is correct

but put file extension .png/.jpg

[native tide]

You also need to add the file ending like .jpg, .png etc

[oak sky]

just wondering if there is a way to "fake" a 404 error with flask

i have a /<module> url and if the module doesn't exist, i want to return a 404 error

does that make sense?

[native tide]

@native tide @green snow thanks there.

@oak sky Idk what db youre using but that could help you to "fake" a 404
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53042728/flask-get-or-404-like-function-but-with-another-status-code/53043143

[oak sky]

ok ima check that out, i found smth about abort(404) too

[native tide]

ok i think both answers are ok bc they look similiar in django but idk flask so idk if that will work

[oak sky]

ok

[native tide]

i just read it and saw you dont need the answers, you need the question bc there it says you can call query.get_or_404 on everything

[oak sky]

i got it to work :)

with abort(404)

[native tide]

great 👍

[buoyant escarp]

Hi guys, I'm creating a webapp using Flask and hosting it in the cloud. How would I properly log the application?

Do i create a log instance everytime somone accesses the index? so it can track their movements?

[sleek crest]

testing selenium stuff on my website:

    if driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="error"]'):
        driver.close()
    print('ok')
``` it doesnt print 'ok' even if there is no element

[obtuse kite]

I think issues are with indentation

[rotund wagon]

does anyone tried deploying their django app on heroku? I kinda need help rn

[sleek crest]

the error i get says the element cannot be located then my code stops there

[native tide]

hey

[hollow cape]

how do i make the webpage show in a side bar in vscode?

any1 knows?

[native tide]

did I do something wrong here?

[native tide]

I deployed like 3 different already and updated them around a 100 + times. What's your problem?

[native tide]

open the dev tool console and see if there are some css loading issues

[rotund wagon]

can i tag u on the help channel

wait

[potent lynx]

Hi everyone. Let me ask about django-braces - is it still useful these days? The last update was 2019

[native tide]

mby sounds dumb but just add an else block and in there print smth and see if it works then

[opaque rivet]

@jovial mist is that header in he response from your server?

[native tide]

I found the problem

Its because Debug = True

for some unknown reason it does that 😦

btw can someone help me fix this error (heroku)

[native tide]

sry idk what varying is but it says the value is too long for that type. Can you show where you assigned that

[native tide]

I assigned it to the url

[sullen python]

#help-cheese

pls

i need help

[native tide]

ok. idk if you know but you can also say URLField instead of CharField for an url. and just for understanding on my side. Why are you overriding the save method like that?

[charred berry]

are django-crontabs supported while deploying a website on heroku?

[native tide]

webscrapping

There is URL Field?

[native tide]

yeah mby that fixes it

[versed python]

This is probably because you are using sqlite database in local and postgresql in production

[native tide]

dk How to fix that

[versed python]

Sqlite doesn't enforce the max_length thing but postgresql does.

[native tide]

should I just delete this ?

[versed python]

Show your models

[native tide]

this is my only model

when I pushed it to heroku

[native tide]

nope it doesn't fix it, I just changed it

[native tide]

sry but i cant rlly help you there bc I havent had that problem yet but mby if you can try switching your db in production to MySQL bc then it works for me with max_length

[native tide]

How can I do that?

[arctic sentinel]

how to draw a web app architecture?

[native tide]

if you are using heroku. Its pretty simple just go to addons and add ClearDB MySQL and then u got it. the only thing then left is the change in the settings.py

This is what I used : heroku addons:create heroku-postgresql:hobby-dev

[terse vapor]

Terrastruct?

[golden reef]

hey

i need some help with flask and heroku.

i am performing a web scraping operation with a flask web app , it runs fine locally but when i deploy it on heroku it throws internal server error.

What is tetrastruct?

[terse vapor]

It is an app that can be use to draw a web app diagram

[arctic sentinel]

Ohh I know some developer architect their web app in draw.io

[terse vapor]

ya

or starUML

[arctic sentinel]

Yeah

[terse vapor]

those are the app to draw diagram

[arctic sentinel]

But I want to know how to draw one

[terse vapor]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3o9oOWBwb0

[arctic sentinel]

Thanks for sharing that

[terse vapor]

no problem

[jovial mist]

Yes, I used Postman

[native tide]

Hi guys, i've a question

[fickle forum]

What's it?

I can ask 🙂

[native tide]

So I want to make a web app in Django, but i'm struggling with what Authantication and Authorization system I should use, can anyone point me in the right direction please? For authz I was thinking about JWT but not sure what I should use for authentication

[fickle forum]

are you using jwt authentication?

[native tide]

does JWT also authenticate? i thought that was for authorization only

[terse vapor]

or u can use like login required thing

[native tide]

I read something about djoser, which is kinda what I need

[fickle forum]

'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': (
'rest_framework_simplejwt.authentication.JWTAuthentication',
'rest_framework.authentication.SessionAuthentication', # Required for Browsable API login
),

its for authentication

[terse vapor]

`from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required

@login_required
def my_view(request):
...`

[native tide]

okay that sounds good, thats build in right?

Also for email confirmation, password reset etc. etc. what do you recommend me to use?

[fickle forum]

It sounds like you are using backend and frontend separately

In this case, I don't use the built-in email confirm, password reset function

[terse vapor]

You can also use django auth to rest password

https://dev.to/merichard123/django-diaries-password-reset-email-3d78

[thin dome]

these if statement are not working

but idk why?

[native tide]

kinda yes, front-end vue and backend python

API with JWT authorization, but should I handle the login, register as api aswell or

[fickle forum]

in this case, you don't have to use built-in password reset/email confirmation function

you should handle everything using API

[native tide]

why not?

doesn't make sense to me

[fickle forum]

built-in password reset/email confirmation is for django template

[green snow]

u need to put space

{% xyz %}

and not {%xyz%}

[native tide]

hmm okay

[native tide]

bc the syntax is wrong. You need to have a space between {% or %} and the if statement

so to wrap it up, login / register should be done trough api calls aswell?

[thin dome]

oooooo

[green snow]

@thin dome

[native tide]

always reply and tag them so they see it

[thin dome]

thx

[thin dome]

thx to you too

[native tide]

np man

[green snow]

can anyone tell me how do i increase the size of the calendar

when i do with css only the box size increases not the drop down calendar

[dawn citrus]

Hey, is there any way to make subdomains with flask?

[native tide]

you usually do that trough the DNS no?

[dawn citrus]

Well... is there a way to do it via flask?

[native tide]

https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/subdomain-in-flask-python/

there you go

[thin dome]

@native tide its not working 😐

[native tide]

then the condition is false

[thin dome]

but its correct

[native tide]

you dont need to endif before elif thats probably the error

[dawn citrus]

Well it didn't quite work

[thin dome]

endelif?

[native tide]

remove {% endif %} before {% elif %}

[native tide]

bump 😄

@thin dome is it working?

[thin dome]

i dont understand

[native tide]

you only need the last {% endif %}

[thin dome]

oh

[thin dome]

is this what are you saying?

[native tide]

yes exactly

[thin dome]

but its not working too

[native tide]

ok can you show your models and the view for that page pls.

[thin dome]

@native tide

[native tide]

ok and the view of that page pls bc it looks like your linter detects some errors

[thin dome]

@native tide

ohhhh fk

sorry

i m sooo dumb

@native tide thx for helping

i was seeing the home page while i was editing shop.html 😐 i m dumb sorry

lol

[native tide]

ok good that you fixed it but you should uninstall that linter u r using bc its bs or if you dont use a linter install one

[thin dome]

what is linter?

[charred berry]

is there a way to create a model in django whose instances automatically get deleted after some time from their creation?

[inland oak]

Sounds like time for Celery and Redis

[charred berry]

celery doesn't work on windows ig

[inland oak]

Pack in docker
I heard it was made working in windows 10

But better start working in linux

It is better way anyway

[charred berry]

also if i deploy my site on heroku will it work there also or i will have to use their task scheduler?

[inland oak]

Not familiar enough with heroku

[opaque rivet]

i guess you can host on a VPS with nginx?

i have django channels celery redis in one and have no clue how to host it

[charred berry]

hmm... i don't know much about nginx.

I am building a library system where there will be a waitlist for each book and as soon as a copy is available of the book the person on top of the waitlist will get it for 7 days and then it will automatically pass on to next person. So is there a way to do it without having to check if 7 days are over or not again and again?

[opaque rivet]

nope - use celery for that 🙂

[mortal mango]

query = db.execute("select prefix_name from prefix where guild_id = %s", (guild_id))

TypeError: not all arguments converted during string formatting Django is giving me this error. Does anyone know what this means?

[native tide]

try

query = db.execute(f"select prefix_name from prefix where guild_id = {guild_id}")```

is guild_id a integer or a string btw

if it's a string try

query = db.execute(f"select prefix_name from prefix where guild_id = '{guild_id}'")

[formal gull]

im confused on when to use a REST API. i am trying to make basically a web UI that does a beautiful soup/requests get request. is this something that would use a REST API or it would not be needed because i am not storing my information?

[manic frost]

No no no no no @native tide, you shouldn't do that. That's prone to SQL injection.

@mortal mango (guild_id) is the same as guild_id. If you want a 1-element tuple, you should do (guild_id,).

[dense slate]

I'm interested in starting a new Django project and see that it now has been moving towards Async pretty heavily. I am hoping to also use React and GraphQL along with it (maybe Next also to optimize). Would it be good to use an ASGI server to later utilize the benefits of aysnc? Will I be able to generally build in a synchronous fashion as I'm used to and just pepper in async functions as I find it useful along the way?

[native tide]

my bad my bad

always use prepare staments

😛

cc @formal gull

[formal gull]

what

[native tide]

@formal gull was regarding this, don't use f strings

was my bad

[formal gull]

wrong person 🙂

[humble oar]

Anyone suggest me best site to learn css?

[scenic pendant]

If you are or can consider using an event loop, try using https://github.com/codemation/easyschedule

from datetime import datetime, timedelta
@scheduler.once(delta=timedelta(days=7))
async def foo():
    ## future work
    pass
#or
async def bar():
    ## more stuff
scheduler.once(delta=timedelta(days=7)(bar)

If not event loops to hook into, this can be pipe-lined using https://github.com/codemation/easyjobs

[sleek crest]

ill try this thanks

not sure wym by an else block tho

[mortal mango]

it worked. Thanks!

[sleek crest]

nvm i figured it out

find1 = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="error"]')
    time.sleep(1.5)
    if find1==TRUE:
        ```

nvm now if it cant find the element

hmm

[merry geyser]

yo does django

works like jquery ?

[inland oak]

Just wrap to
query = db.execute(f"select prefix_name from prefix where guild_id = {str(guild_id)}'")

[terse vapor]

@app.route("/visit", methods=['POST', 'GET']) @login_required def visit(): amount_patient = Newpatient.query.first() from_date = datetime(year=datetime.now().year, month=datetime.now().month, day=datetime.now().day) current_month_expenses = Patient.query.filter_by(patient.id=patient_id).filter(Patient.create >= from_date).filter(Patient.create <= datetime.now()).all() return render_template('file.html', current_month_expenses=current_month_expenses)
I dont quite understand why this still has the error 'function' object has no attribute 'id'

[native tide]

hi

[charred berry]

will these work even after i deploy the website on a platform like heroku?

[grand shale]

Can i use js vars in python with flask

Like i get an input from <input> and use the string in python?

[tacit anvil]
