[late gale]

so i need something powerful

[jade lark]

I honestly wouldn't have recommended trying to build an ecomm site if this is one of your first few projects. However... Given the situation I would recommend Heroku or PythonAnywhere.

As you don't want to have a security breach on the server.

[late gale]

dont worry , im not beginner in django

and not my first proj

[late gale]

so u mean

[jade lark]

But you haven't deployed before?

[late gale]

pythonanywhere or heroku are the best choice

[late gale]

I did deployed on pythonanywhere

but when i tried to use 1i8n

pythonanywhere doesnt translate

though it does in local host

[jade lark]

For this project, absolutely. If you haven't deployed before on your own server then go with a provided solution

[late gale]

but what about the 1i8n feature

its not in pythonaywhere , its a multilanguage site

[inland oak]

is it babel?

[late gale]

noo its from django gettext

[inland oak]

is your application translated when you are launching it with Gunicorn on your local machine?

[jade lark]

Maybe try contacting their support, that or try heroku

[inland oak]

or rent cheap VPS and deploy on your own

i saw a list of even free VPSes

[mystic galleon]

Hello guys. I am working with flask in virtual env and i have installed this package with pip https://pypi.org/project/python-keycloak/. But the problem the from is not working

There is the error could not resolve in vs code

Someone have an idea why?

[inland oak]

hard to say without seeing error

did you try to read the error?

[inland oak]

well, wrong import name

keycloak is not installed, or you have wrong name used in import

or, you don't have activated virtual env for your visual studio code

[late gale]

heroku is 25$ price but i will try heroku

[mystic galleon]

virtualenv is activeted i can see in the cmd and the flask is working

[inland oak]

it does not mean it is activated for VS code

check at its bottom

which one venv is activated

[mystic galleon]

Ahh lol thk dude

now is wirking

[autumn hedge]

Anyone here using Flask 2.0?
Im getting an issue after my upgrade from 0.12.5 where multiple api calls are not returning propery state from the endpoints. Rolling back corrects the issue so I'm not clear what changed in terms of controller responses within Flask

[late gale]

Has anyone tried Reactjs with Django

I wanna give it a shot

[calm plume]

I haven't personally, but here's a nice article I've read through on it: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/build-a-to-do-application-using-django-and-react

[late gale]

Cool

oh btw when i change from Sqlite to Prostegrsl , will it improve performance or it doesnt matter

[inland oak]

we are using it at work

apperently it is actually quite common usage

Django in DRF mode is preferable

[late gale]

yea DRF is so great

[late gale]

i believe its better than pure html and css with django right ?

[naive rock]

How is post request different from put request? I know post request would be like creating something new and then put would be updating/editing. We probably cant do put on something that doesnt already exist because there's nothing to update, unless the library falls back on post.

If I am using API to update an attribute called quantity for an item, would it matter if I use post or put and rest of the info about an item would stay the same? This is actually the actual question lol.

[inland oak]

You can use DRF with javascript fetches from itself

For a simple javascript logic it can work fast and well enough

There are some alternatives if regular js is not enough

Basically... you can use appropriate mixes of regular pages / jinja / dynamic javascript stuff, in any proportions.

React just makes simpler handling a lot of js

[late gale]

nah i reactjs is better than regular js

[late gale]

agreed

Django isn't so good with templates so it really needs a frontend framework like React or Vue but i will go with react cause i Love it

[inland oak]

I plan one day to learn react too

Too big queue of backend+devops stuff at the moment

[late gale]

I learned vue after react , Vue is very easy but react has a lot of features than vue

[native tide]

What to study after learning Js and Dom(js)

[late gale]

what do u want to do

there are numerous things to do using Js

[native tide]

full stack developer

I know html css js and django

[late gale]

Cool then u need to go with React next

then React

[native tide]

UwU thanks

[late gale]

Also learn Django rest Framework

[native tide]

oh what is it used for?

[late gale]

for creating RESTFul APi and u need it for React

its very easy

[native tide]

ah ok thanks

[late gale]

let me recommend u some videos I watched

helped me alot

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B38aDwUpcFc

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmsD8QExZ84

both are good , u can choose one

or both

then there's django + react

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JD-age0BPVo

that's it

Tim is the best

[native tide]

thanks 💯 freecodecamp is also good 😄

[late gale]

Absolutely , whatever u are comfortable with

[naive rock]

bump

[mint folio]

Yes it does matter. You need to use the verb that the api requires for that route.

[naive rock]

Actually, I went through my code and realized I had used put to change the specific data because I know where the resources lives.
so what would happen if I had used post instead?

If I know where the resource lives, can I still use post?

[mint folio]

@naive rock If the route accepts post then you should send it post. If you did put, you would get an error like 400/405

The same applies to other types

[modest hazel]

Hi guys, I came upon this kind of login page:

https://i.gyazo.com/a6a900b9542615081fafa86b87c250cc.png

I notice no data is sent in the request body

How does the server receive this data?

Server: Apache/2.4.25 (FreeBSD) OpenSSL/1.0.1s-freebsd PHP/5.6.30

If it helps

[thorn igloo]

what's the website? why is it hidden here?

[opaque rivet]

@modest hazel have you checked the headers?

[modest hazel]

Cuz it's a little embarrasssing

It's a porn website lmfao

[modest hazel]

Yup

[thorn igloo]

hmmm

[modest hazel]

i got it now tho, it's just base64 encoded, separated by a :

[peak lava]

i need help with django auth signup form customization:

            {% csrf_token %}
            <div class="textbox">
                <input type="input" class="form-control" name="username" id="inputEmail" placeholder="Username" name="" value="" required>
            </div>
            <div class="password">
                <input type="password" class="form-control" name="password" id="inputPass" placeholder="Password" name="" value="" id="password" required>
            </div>
            <div class="confirm_password">
                <input type="password" class="form-control" name="password" id="" placeholder="Confirm Password" name="" value="" required>
            </div>
            <input class="btn" type="submit" style="opacity: 1 !important;" value="Sign Up">
        </form>```
does anyone know what's the id=" "  of input Confirm Password:?

[fallen kindle]

why isn't the action attribute an empty string?

[peak lava]

?is it not

i mean this type of custom worked for my django auth login form

i've just copy-pasted that code here, but added the confim_pass textbox

/input

[solemn nebula]

can someone help me with flask? Im getting an attribute error: AttributeError: 'Token' object has no attribute 'test' when i do return render_template("users.html", rows=rows) where rows is directly from a sqlite database

[nimble epoch]

if im right its saying that your Token model has no field(attr) named 'test'.

[solemn nebula]

yeah but i never interact with any kind of Token object @nimble epoch

or at least not directly

it looks like it's in my virtual env venv\lib\site-packages\jinja2\parser.py

[outer apex]

Can you expand on the property state you're referring to and what info you're hoping to get from it?

[outer apex]

The ID of that field can be anything. What are you hoping to achieve with setting that ID?

[peak lava]

well

i belive it should be a unique id thats already defined within django.contrib.auth library

[dusk portal]

U make sites like this?

Lmfao!

[unkempt salmon]

Hey guys. Does anyone have advice with learning Django? any youtube videos you can recommend?

[nimble epoch]

how about to share your code in here? if you comfortable with it

[nimble epoch]

dont you like main docs?

[weary bough]

TIME_ZONE = "Asia/Kolkata"
why even after setting this in django settings I m still getting timezone.now() as 24 as the date?

its 25/5 as you will be able to see at the bottom right , but if you see the debugger variables then you will see it's 24

from django.utils import timezone

timezone.now()
datetime.datetime(2021, 5, 24, 19, 31, 23, 611639, tzinfo=<UTC>)

why?????

[autumn hedge]

@ds12 state meaning the API responses.

I think it has something to do with how the flask server teardown the request

[quasi relic]

guys any idea how can I delete a user and the related posts data from the database?

    form = DeleteAccount()
    if form.validate_on_submit():
        user = current_user
        posts = Post.query.filter(Post.user_id==current_user.id).all()
        if user.check_password(form.password.data):
            db.session.delete(posts)
            db.session.commit(user)
            flash('Your account has been deleted.')
            return redirect(url_for('logout'))
    return render_template('delete_account.html', title='Delete Account', form=form)```

ye forgot to mention the framework==flask , so this is my delete account func and it throws me -> sqlalchemy.orm.exc.UnmappedInstanceError: Class 'builtins.list' is not mapped

[nimble epoch]

you use sqlalchemy right? you can use id to delete all his/her posts but you should use cascade

[quasi relic]

dont look at this point -> db.session.commit(user) mistake

[quasi relic]

ye

[nimble epoch]

and this view is for deleting user and its posts?

[quasi relic]

so I have to use cascade in my model?

ye

it should be .. but ye

[nimble epoch]

yeah

and i dont know it's your app or not but you dont need any forms to delete user

just a button

[quasi relic]

so actually a html button would be enough?

or link?

[nimble epoch]

yeah its actually a link but yeah you can do it with js button onclick attr too

[quasi relic]

this is how it looks like

[nimble epoch]

oh so it need password to delete user so its ok

[quasi relic]

yeah

[quasi relic]

so just add cascade="delete" on my users relationship?

[nimble epoch]

i dont remeber well sqlalchemy but yeah i think that was something like that cascade="delete delete-orphan" or something

[unkempt salmon]

@nimble epoch What is main docs 😦

[quasi relic]

idk still nothing, and I am getting the same error :/ but thanks for your time

[nimble epoch]

django official documents

[nimble epoch]

what was the error? and doesnt sqlalchemy need any migrations?

[quasi relic]

sqlalchemy.orm.exc.UnmappedInstanceError

sqlalchemy.orm.exc.UnmappedInstanceError: Class 'builtins.list' is not mapped

db.session.delete(posts)

    __tablename__ = 'user'

    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    username = db.Column(db.String(20), index=True, unique=True, nullable=False)
    email = db.Column(db.String(64), index=True, unique=True, nullable=False)
    hashed_password = db.Column(db.String(32), index=True, nullable=False)
    joined_time = db.Column(db.DateTime, default=datetime.utcnow, nullable=False)
    user_post = db.relationship('Post', backref='user', cascade='all, delete, delete-orphan', lazy=True)

    def check_password(self, password):
        return check_password_hash(self.hashed_password, password)
    
    def hash_password(self, password):
        self.hashed_password = generate_password_hash(password)
    
    def __repr__(self):
        return 'User {}\nusername:_{}\nemail:_{}'.format(self.id, self.username, self.email)


class Post(db.Model):
    __tablename__ = 'post'

    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    title = db.Column(db.String(80), index=True, nullable=False)
    date_posted = db.Column(db.DateTime, default=datetime.utcnow, nullable=False)
    text = db.Column(db.Text, index=True, nullable=False)
    user_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('user.id', ondelete='cascade'), nullable=False)

    def __repr__(self):
        return 'Post {}\n{}\n{}'.format(self.id, self.title, self.date_posted)```

[nimble epoch]

i remember something like that but im not sure whats the solution

doesnt it mean that the record you looking for doesnt exist?

[quasi relic]

honestly idk, it is already created, but I am going to google it I guess

[nimble epoch]

ye better

[quasi relic]

When you are adding a non-model-object into the session, you will be getting UnmappedInstanceError. so the solution was to remove the -> db.session.delete(posts) | posts = Post.query.filter(Post.user_id==current_user.id).all() , and it deleted succesfully the user and the related posts to it

I only needed to delete the user after I added cascade to my model

but still wondering why 😄

[nimble epoch]

you use migrations?

after updating models?

[quasi relic]

nope

[nimble epoch]

i think thats because of that BUT this can happen when you have added new field to model and already had a record but that field in the record is empty

[white parrot]

Hey guys just wanted to ask something. Two people including me are working on a django project and both of us have no big experience with github. Whenever we push our codes, mine work fine, but his push generally creates some kind anomaly or what, making the whole branch corrupt. Would putting migrations files into .gitignore a good way or shall I search for something else??

Please tag me if you answer this

[quick juniper]

I think think not staging the migrations is not the best idea... are u both working on the same branch?

[white parrot]

Yes sort of

I mean i do have my separate branch which works fine with my code

But the problem is when we work on the same branch

[quick juniper]

what kind of anomaly do u have, can u be more specific

[white parrot]

I think it's kind of " <<<<<head " appears in code in many different places

[quick juniper]

in the code or specifically in the migrations

if so a possible solution could be a solution for you https://stackoverflow.com/a/32683732/12232281

I hope that this will work for u and your team m8

if not i would suggest that u research a bit there are many other people that have the same problems and established a work flow for them self

[summer nexus]

is there a good tutorial for Django?

[quick juniper]

have u tried the offical?

[quick juniper]

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/intro/tutorial01/ it's a nice introduction

[summer nexus]

oh cool thanks

[quick juniper]

no problem and good luck

[opaque rivet]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17712468/what-is-the-difference-between-git-remote-update-git-fetch-and-git-pull/17712553

just update the current working directory before you both start working on your code.

Anyone here know how to import a js library from cdn to use in a js script.

[calm plume]

You can use a <script src="cdn url"> tag I believe

[devout coral]

I mean to put it inside of a js file

Not in HTML

[calm plume]

Ah, my bad

[devout coral]

No all good

Anything helps, I am lost.

I got this error as I was trying to build a simple web app

that will display informational graphic

[elder laurel]

Can anyone provide me with a basic understanding of what Flask does?

[inland oak]

Set of libraries
Gathered neatly together
Which solve all your basic problems on the path of making web site

Flask solves for you requests, routes, gives... template language, makes possible easily handling basic operations like login, or any other data insert, web site auto translation(also known as localization), gives basic web server to try running it, handling database connections and migrations and etc

Basically, do not reinvent a wheel, when people already all made for you

[austere eagle]

Can anyone help

[outer apex]

Just google the full RunTimeError exception message. There seems to be a few threads with potential solutions you can explore.

[austere eagle]

Already have..nothin worked..ty though -sigh-

[white parrot]

@quick juniper @opaque rivet Thank you

[native tide]

I'm working on a blog platform in Flask. I'm trying to simplify the permissions/access for posts that users can create. Every post's access is controlled by two variables: is_published (a bool) and visibility (a enum).

Basically, for every endpoint, I don't want to have to micromanage which user has access to being able to see the post. Is there a design pattern I should use to deal with this, or some kind of library?

[outer apex]

Can you clarify on what you mean by micromanage which user can see a post? Given what you said, a post that isn't published doesn't get shown (obviously) whereas the visibility piece determines which types of user can see a post?

[small cape]

How do I make div blocks over and over again in jinja2

[native tide]

Unpublished posts are only visible to the author.

Visibility levels including things like, whether it's visible just to friends, the public, is unlisted, etc.

Users can customize visibility levels (and unpublish posts)

Right now the way my project is, I have to manage the permissions in every context/endpoint, and this logic the spread out.

Eg, if you want to access a list of all posts in have to customize the query to not show unlisted and unpublished, but if you're the author you should be able to see all of your posts. When you want to edit the post, there's logic there to make sure you're not editing other people's posts. Just seems like I can simplify all of this logic in one place.

I should mention in doing everything server-side. Nonfront end frameworks or anything.

[stark tartan]

How to deploy django with celery

[outer apex]

Can you share some snippets to how you're managing these permissions?

[stark tartan]

Why you want permissions snippets

[outer apex]

Talking to @native tide

[stark tartan]

Can you give my question answer please

[native tide]

Okay, I'll have to do this tomorrow.

[dull pier]

you should definitely look for a ready made library or build one for your case

usually you will require 2 things. 1 - check if user has permissions for a single object, 2 - filter the list based on permissions

if you design your schema properly then neither becomes a pain. You can write helper methods somewhere in lib, may be a decorator and just use that

you should also explore "guard clause" design pattern so that your logic can be simplified

[dull pier]

they have a full guide on this. Have you tried that? https://docs.celeryproject.org/en/stable/django/first-steps-with-django.html

[stark tartan]

Yes... I mean it is possible to deploy django with celery

If yes please guide me

[dull pier]

what have you tried so far? what is not working?

[stark tartan]

No I don't tried yet i.am asking dod you done something like this earlier is yes please tell

[dull pier]

yes. I'm running celery in production for few years now. It's the exact guide we follow

there are more than handful things to take care of while deploying celery with django. that's why I'm suggesting you to go through that guide and try to setup things. If it doesn't work then we'll help

otherwise helping you do that will be another exercise to write the same guide here

to sum up celery deployment, 1. make sure you have django server running on gunicorn/nginx etc 2. make sure redis/rabbitmq is running and configured correctly 3. run celery worker 4. if you have periodic tasks then use django-celery-beat 5. profit

[inland oak]

hmm, thinking what are the advantages to pack postgres into container

[dusk portal]

Oh

[marble spade]

how can I center something in the middle of the screen, but allow it to be reactive (Things will not overlap).

.wrapper{
    position: fixed;
    top: 50%;
    left: 50%;
    -webkit-transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
    transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
}

I want the items to site around the search-bar

[dull pier]

it will help in putting everything in a same virtual network, easy deployment using docker-compose or so but you will lose data if container is destroyed. Then you have to make sure to use volumes (external ones, mounted on the container) to persist the data. I'd do it only if I had orchestration benefits, otherwise no

[inland oak]

mm yeah. like... I don't need my each app having its own instance of postgres

it would be great... but they need to be 'mirror'ed to each other in this case in order to share the same data

but it can't be resolved at this level

[lusty walrus]

I know this is a python discord but are CSS questions allowed in here?

I can't figure out why multi-lined text in my pseudo table are not being justified

[marble spade]

.search-input{
  margin: auto;
  width: 60%;
  border: 5px solid #FFFF00;
  padding: 10px;
}

how can I make it so that the orange thing goes away, I want the stuff below to flow nexzt to it

[thorn igloo]

huh?

[marble spade]

hm

I wanna make it so there is a searchbar and there are elements around the outise

closest i

have got

[thorn igloo]

can you make a rough sketch of what you want it to look like?

[marble spade]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/366673702533988363/846658688613613588/Screen_Shot_2021-05-25_at_5.59.04_pm.png
like that without the overlap

the elements on the side

[thorn igloo]

oh

you can use positioning to achieve that

[marble spade]

but like when I position it, the elements don't go around it

it creates a margin

even if I set margin to none

[thorn igloo]

no, i mean the position property

[marble spade]

you mean position; relative:?

[thorn igloo]

you can change it's z index to bring it ontop of the other elements

[thorn igloo]

that could work, but i think fixed works better, just mess with top, bottom, left and right property to center it

[marble spade]

I tried that

it sets a margin around the outside

therefore the items will not sit around the outside

I need the div to stay as the yellow dimensions

instead thats what it looks like

[vestal hound]

so you want

the search bar to be in the middle?

[marble spade]

I mean yes

[thorn igloo]

man, i dont understand what you want

[vestal hound]

yeah I don't either

[marble spade]

hmm

[vestal hound]

can you

[marble spade]

I want the searchbar in the middle, and the other items to float around it

[hoary brook]

I see what you're trying to achieve, but I think to make it nicer for users I'd just make the search bar span 100% at the top instead of embedding it between search results.

[vestal hound]

draw EXACTLY what you want

[vestal hound]

okay

[marble spade]

oh wait I have a screen design

1 sec

[vestal hound]

then it needs to be in the same container

as the results

that sounds...weird...though

IMO

[marble spade]

ignore the search results

[vestal hound]

wtf

[marble spade]

but it should look something like that

im' pretty fast

[vestal hound]

that looks nothing like the above result

I'm even more confused

[marble spade]

hm

[vestal hound]

okay

do you want

something like this

[marble spade]

thats not an exact design

[vestal hound]

result result result result result
result SEARCHBAR GOES HERE  result
result result result result result

or

[marble spade]

more like ```
result SEARCHBAR GOES HERE result
result SEARCHBAR GOES HERE result
result result result result result
result result result result result

[vestal hound]

result |                    | result
result |                    | result
result |  SEARCH GOES HERE  | result
result |                    | result
result |                    | result

[marble spade]

yeah 2nd one

looks closer

[vestal hound]

then

that is simpler

use flexbox

with 3 columns

middle column contains search

done

[marble spade]

ok lemme try

[vestal hound]

honestly

weird ass design though

[hoary brook]

If I can just give my opinion on this, I recommend sticking to the layout below, it's more accessible and has better visual hierarchy:

<search result> <search result> <search result>```

[marble spade]

its gon look clean asf in the end dw

[vestal hound]

agree

[vestal hound]

I doubt it

[marble spade]

its gon be a unique design

[vestal hound]

it also seems to have accessibility issues

[marble spade]

ill ping u when I do it

[vestal hound]

no need to ping me

[hoary brook]

E.g. FontAwesome is a good example of a nicely structured search.

[marble spade]

kk

[vestal hound]

I have done enough UI/UX design to see

lots of people

who think their design is new and unique

indeed it is

[marble spade]

xd

[vestal hound]

but most of the time

it also fails miserably in the usability department

new and unique is easy

new and unique and PRETTY is not difficult

new and unique and pretty AND usable is hard.

but I'm sure you've done your user interviews and gathered your focus groups

and thereby validated your design

[hoary brook]

@marble spade One more thing, your design doesn't look it it will be responsive, especially on mobile.

You'd have to start moving things around and most likely get rid of the 3 columns on mobile anyway...

[surreal portal]

If there's something I retained on frontend/UI/UX is that you have to keep it as simple as you can

I say this while I barely know how frontend works and my speciality is changing font sizes, weights and colors

[hoary brook]

The first thing I learned it to keep the basic rules in mind like visual hierarchy, scale, use of whitespace, etc. As long as you have that you can expand on it and create your own unique design.

127.0.0.1:8000/media/images/product123.jpeg

How, can I do this?

I am storing my image as follows
image = models.ImageField(upload_to="images")

[mental veldt]

i have those models, I am trying to make an api call that returns something like:

{
class_a:
{
firstname: john,
lastname: do,
total_score: 200,
},
{
firstname: jane,
lastname: do,
total_score: 300,
}
class_b:
{
lastname: steve,

},

something like that. somebody help

[surreal portal]

Btw is there a way to deploy a dockerized service without using swarm or Kubernetes?

I have something working with docker-compose

[nimble epoch]

its right. doesnt it work?

make sure you adding static to urls

[proud lintel]

No, I haven't added.

Can you please tell me what I have to add?

[nimble epoch]

from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static

urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)

add it in your app urls.py

use this code in DEBUG mode

you can do something like ```py
if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)

[proud lintel]

I have added this then it creates another error.

[nimble epoch]

what error?

[proud lintel]

When I am writing debug =false it is not working.

[nimble epoch]

of course it wont work

if you on deployment mode use whitenoise

[proud lintel]

So, how can this work with debug =false

[proud lintel]

I am using this as well.

[nimble epoch]

not working?

[proud lintel]

Not working

[nimble epoch]

you added whitenoise to middleware and storage attr to settings right?

[proud lintel]

Yes

[nimble epoch]

do static files work? i mean static files not media files

and did you do a migration?

[proud lintel]

Yeah,..

Have I done the things in a correct way?

[nimble epoch]

whitenoise middleware should be under securitymiddleware

[proud lintel]

You mean this...

[nimble epoch]

yep

[proud lintel]

But still I am getting this😭

[nimble epoch]

do another migration of course if its necessary then try it

[proud lintel]

With debug =false it is working fine...

[proud lintel]

What do you mean, didn't get you..

[thorn igloo]

what are you using? flask?

[proud lintel]

No , django

[native tide]

How to add a simple messaging feature to my django website using websockets ?

[thorn igloo]

i think your issue can be solved with dynamic routing

[native tide]

My theme is not to make a chat app but I wanna add a feature in it

[proud lintel]

Use django-channels

[proud lintel]

What is this, and how can I do this...

[native tide]

Will that take time to implement bro?

[proud lintel]

Yeah, it will take sometime to learn.

[native tide]

okay let me look into it and thankyou

[thorn igloo]

i'm not sure how to do this in django but in flask you would have something like this

@app.route("/media/images/<filename>")
def getImage(filename):
  #here would be some function to return an image based on the filename

[proud lintel]

I am not familiar with flask ...

[thorn igloo]

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/topics/http/urls/

[proud lintel]

I know this name only.. nothing more than this

[thorn igloo]

maybe this will be helpful

again i'm not familiar with django

so i'm just taking a leap and guessing here

[proud lintel]

This won't solve my problem.

[thorn igloo]

ok then

[proud lintel]

Hmm

@nimble epoch , I have to access my image as follows.

[nimble epoch]

i know im trying to fin out

[thorn igloo]

ok, can you explain how dynamic urls dont solve this problem for you?

[nimble epoch]

ill let you know

[proud lintel]

Thanks

[proud lintel]

I never say this won't solve my problem, I say I am not aware of it, can you please tell me what is this...

[thorn igloo]

you get the filename from the dynamic url, you use the filename to find and serve the image

ultimately you want something like this right?

[proud lintel]

Yes...

Exactly, like this, but in django

[thorn igloo]

yes, i'm achieving this with dynamic urls

[thorn igloo]

let me ask you this, if you had the filename for the image, could you serve it?

[proud lintel]

I have filename but I am not able to serve it.

In production mode.

I am able to serve it in debug mode.

[thorn igloo]

hmm

weird

[proud lintel]

Hmm

[inland oak]

if you don't want your website being discovered

is it safe to attach it to 80, 443

or better hide to some other port

[proud lintel]

Hide to some other port

[opal vale]

Which one is the better option?

1. PUT /message/{message_nr}

• payload

{
  "text": "string",
}

2. PUT /message

• payload

{
  "text": "string",
  "nr": 0
}

[mint folio]

I would use the first since I use PUT for updating/patching.

[opal vale]

both are PUT

[mint folio]

I know

But to pass it through the url, since it’s identifying a resource

And benefits of that is also some frameworks can auto resolve it for you through dependency injection.

[prisma canopy]

hi, I am having a problem

from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route("/")
def hello():
    return "Hello World!"

@app.route("/hi")
def rudransh():
    return "Hello rudransh!"


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

when i run the code and change the end point to /hi

it shows error 404

[surreal portal]

Anybody knows how to set a docker-compose so the proxy/front is exposed on one particular host and port?

[prisma canopy]

@surreal portal can you help with my problem

idk why it's happening

[surreal portal]

Did you launch python app.pyor whatever your file is called?

[prisma canopy]

no

i did that in terminal

[peak sandal]

hey guys, Does anyone know how to use adafruit feeds on django?

[prisma canopy]

i mean i just ran my code

[surreal portal]

Do you have an error message when you launch it?

[prisma canopy]

no

[surreal portal]

Because a correct launch means your terminal is runnung your Flask app and you can access it at http://localhost:5000

[surreal portal]

Nevermind, I saw that and you need to stop Flask and restart it for the changes to take effect.

[prisma canopy]

 * Serving Flask app "FLASK WEB APP" (lazy loading)
 * Environment: production
   WARNING: This is a development server. Do not use it in a production deployment.
   Use a production WSGI server instead.

[prisma canopy]

it shows 404 error when i change the endpoint

[surreal portal]

Yeah your app is running. If you go to http://localhost:5000/hi you should have « Hi rudransh » showing up

[prisma canopy]

that's not showing

[surreal portal]

But if you added more routes in the meantime, you have to stop with Ctrl+C and restart your app

[prisma canopy]

it's showing a error instead

[dusk portal]

Oh

[surreal portal]

Yeah 404 means the route doesn’t exist. Meaning you added it after you launched your app for the first time

[prisma canopy]

yeah

[surreal portal]

If you want /hi to be shown, you have to stop your Flask app and restart it (also don’t forget to save)

[prisma canopy]

but i reloaded also

i saved it, I restarted it

[surreal portal]

Refresh your browser

[prisma canopy]

it doesn't work

not working

[surreal portal]

If nothing works, clear the cache and restart your FLask app

Or open your route in a private tab

[prisma canopy]

i am screwed man

anything doesn't work

[surreal portal]

I’m sure you probably forgot one of the steps I’ve indicated

[dense slate]

Anyone know why vs code might not let me connect to the server via any browser sometimes but then if I just restart my pc it works? It seems to be happening like 50% of the time that I can't connect.

[surreal portal]

Also never name your Python files like you did. Python files must be named with snake_case.py

[prisma canopy]

nothing works

did everything

i am SCREWED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[surreal portal]

The other recommendation I can offer is to start over with a virtual environment with Flask 2.x installed and follow the quickstart tutorial just one more time

[dusk portal]

Lpl

[dense slate]

Just take it one step at a time bro. Debugging is always going to be an issue. No point in getting frustrated. Just take a breather, get some air or some coffee and take another look or start from the beginning. 🙂

[surreal portal]

Btw I wanted to know if there were any webdevs who successfully deployed a dockerized app on a VM with a fixed IP and a fixed port. How do you bind your app (the front-end network) on that fixed host + port, through docker-compose ?

[inland oak]

backend just has exposed ports
which front end uses (preferably its pointed by env parameters)

shrugs, I do separate docker-composes for separate code projects

I only make multi conterized dependencies for the same project only for

backend app + redis + postgres + nginx + celery

[surreal portal]

Yeah, my goal was to expose the frontend's ports while the backend communicates with the frontend on a private network

My docker-compose.yml files englobe the whole project. Never tried to override them in case it gets too complex

[inland oak]

well, there is expose flag which exposes port of container for internal private network inside of docker-compose

[surreal portal]

Ok I tried something on the port param:

ERROR: for web  Cannot start service web: driver failed programming external connectivity on endpoint react-frontend (CONTAINER_ID): Error starting userland proxy: listen tcp4 XX.XXX.XXX.XX:YYYY: bind: cannot assign requested address

Where XX.XXX.XXX.XX:YYYY is the address I want to bind my container on

[inland oak]

what is XX.XXX.XXX.XX: YYYY

VPS external IP like 216.65.234.65?

[surreal portal]

Yeah the XX is an IPv4 while YYYY is the port number

[inland oak]

bind to 0.0.0.0: YYYY

it makes application exposed to the network outside, while taking exernal IP as its

[surreal portal]

Ok. I'll try the universal IP and see what gives

Man, next time I'll try Swarm or Kubernetes

[dull pier]

just install nginx on the server and reverse proxy it to docker container port

[surreal portal]

Yeah the frontend is running through a NGINX image

[dull pier]

why is it image?

I meant have it installed natively on the vps server

[surreal portal]

Because I set up a Dockerfile for production ready to use

[dull pier]

it will take additional efforts to bridge the networks, no?

your docker-compose net will have it's own subnet and stuff. then your nginx image will require to co-ordinate between external world and docker's internal network

and the nginx within container will never see your host machine's network adapter, hence it won't be able to bind to that ip address

what is the host os on your vps server?

[surreal portal]

Oof it doesn't work. The address sends back a 404 response

[surreal portal]

It's a static IP. Also the advantage of Docker is customizing the entrypoints isn't it?

[dull pier]

static ip or not, that's not really very useful in this case

[foggy canopy]

Print ("hello")

[inland oak]

404? it found your web site at least? perhaps just wrong page url

[dull pier]

could you please share your docker-compose?

[surreal portal]

On my local machine, it works fine.

[surreal portal]

Here:

version: '3'

services:
  api:
    restart: always
    build: ./api
    env_file: ./api/.env
    expose:
      - 8000
    ports:
      - 8000:8000
    volumes:
      - ./api:/api
    container_name: fastapi-backend
    restart: always
    networks:
      - api-front

  web:

    expose:
      - 80
      - 443
    ports:
      - 0.0.0.0:4000:80
      - 0.0.0.0:4001:443
    container_name: react-frontend
    volumes:
      - ./web:/web
    networks:
      - api-front

networks:
  api-front:

[surreal portal]

I'm gonna try locally

[dull pier]

ports are mapped as host:container, this means your web container internally has something running on 80 and 443 that you are binding to 4000 and 4001, is that correct?

also, you should not set container names in the docker files. containers should be stateless and if you somehow want to recreate the containers then names will clash and compose start will fail

[inland oak]

can we see docker file of your front
at least its ending / entry point / cmd

[surreal portal]

Here:

# Build env
FROM node:16.0.0-buster-slim AS build
WORKDIR /web
ENV PATH /web/node_modules/.bin$PATH
COPY package.json ./
COPY package-lock.json ./
RUN npm ci --silent
RUN npm install react-scripts@4.0.3 -g --silent
COPY . ./
RUN npm run build

# production environment
FROM nginx:stable-alpine
COPY --from=build /web/build /usr/share/nginx/html

# If you have a nginx.conf file, copy it
COPY nginx.conf /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf

EXPOSE 80
CMD ["nginx", "-g", "daemon off;"]

[inland oak]

nginx conf?

[surreal portal]

Yeah

[dull pier]

fix ports for web like this

    ports:
      - 0.0.0.0:80:4000
      - 0.0.0.0:443:4001

[surreal portal]

server {

  listen 80;

  location / {
    root   /usr/share/nginx/html;
    index  index.html index.htm;
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html;
  }

  error_page   500 502 503 504  /50x.html;

  location = /50x.html {
    root   /usr/share/nginx/html;
  }

}

@inland oak

[inland oak]

hmm

[dull pier]

also, is your react-frontend expecting to connect to fast-api server on localhost:8000 ?

[surreal portal]

Yeah

[inland oak]

version: '3'

services:
  api:
    restart: always
    build: ./api
    env_file: ./api/.env
    expose:
      - 8000
    volumes:
      - ./api:/api
    container_name: fastapi-backend
    restart: always
    networks:
      - api-front

  web:
    build:
      context: ./web
      dockerfile: ./Dockerfile.prod
      args:
        environment: prod
        status: stable
    ports:
      - 0.0.0.0:80:80
    container_name: react-frontend
    volumes:
      - ./web:/web
    networks:
      - api-front

networks:
  api-front:

technically it is supposed to be something like that

if we will remove all not working ports

0.0.0.0:4000:80 as alternative, if you don't want being published at 80 port

[dull pier]

react-frontend won't find the fastapi server because react-frontend will try to connect "within itself" when pointed to localhost. For this connectivity you need to specify fastapi host as "api" <- this is the key you have define in docker compose as service name. Docker's dns server will help resolve the correct ip on it's internal network

there are 2 networks here. one is "api-front" that docker manages. and your "web" should be able to locate "api" on this network. Second is the actual network of host that connects it to the internet. That one you'll be binding on using ports directive under "web"

[surreal portal]

Yeah I need to make API calls from my React app

[dull pier]

you need to change hardcoded hostname from web source code. Change it from "localhost:8000" to "api:8000"

and change the way you have mapped ports on web, as I have suggested above and give it a try

I just referred to some of my old deployment files

https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/compose-file-v3/#ports

ports are mapped host:container

[surreal portal]

Really? Do I have to use the service's name?

Hold on, that means I have to edit the middleware too

[peak thicket]

I've got a request that if a condition is true, it'll re-try in the backend in ~30 minutes after, for the response to the client explaining that this is going to happen, should I use status code 202 for accepted or status code 425 for too early?

[dull pier]

make it configurable from env vars

take a step back and understand how docker's private network works and what localhost means for a container. It means itself! Once you understand this part, docker-compose and networking will be very handy!

[surreal portal]

Time to take networking classes 😛

[dull pier]

if you are actually acknowledging the incoming request and pushing it to some sort of queue then 202 makes sense. If not then 425. Depending on this status code client will define their behavior, right? if you have ack'ed but reply with 425 then client will keep retrying may be every 5 minutes to get it in. If you were not ack'ing the request but responded with 202 then client would be under the impression that it doesn't have to do anything and just wait for it to complete.

[dull pier]

it's not that hard

[peak thicket]

yeah its sent to a queue

but thank you

ill use 202

[dense lynx]

Did you manage to debug it in the end?

[humble raft]

I want the output(string) of my python code to become a headline in a HTML file

any help?

[paper pier]

<a href="/create">Create</a>
``` urls.py ```py
path('create/',views.create,name='create')
```  its not working anyone know how to fix this?

[paper pier]

store the output string in a variable and use {{variable}} in html (idk this work or not )

[proud lintel]

Can anyone tell me why I am getting this, when I am doing debug =false it is giving 404 error and when debug=true it is giving 200 code .

[humble raft]

Okay i will try

[humble raft]

doesnt work...i need a way to connect html and python

[opaque rivet]

because django does not serve static files in production

[paper pier]

using django?

[humble raft]

no...just simple python and a html file

nvm i'll use js

[austere eagle]

So I have a site that saves whatever is uploaded to the site. How to get the web app (using python and django) to just print the JSON file uploaded? End goal is to eventually allow user to pick any graph they wish their JSON file to be represented in , and show the statistics that way

[glossy panther]

You can use flask and render_template(<html file>, <the output>)
And in the html file use {{the output}}

[humble raft]

Thanks will look into it.

[nimble epoch]

i think you gotta use django-storages and whitenoise cant handle media files it only handles static files

[proud lintel]

I am not using django-storages, yeah, I also understand this that media file is not showing in production because of whitenoise, after creating a different project and doing all the things except whitenoise, but the problem is that I have to use whitenoise because I am deploying it into heroku.

[nimble epoch]

no difference use whitenoise beside django-storages to serve you media files

[proud lintel]

Whitenoise is creating a different folder for static files as staticfiles, means it has not to take anything from static folder , may be it is also ignoring media folder, I am not sure.

[languid beacon]

is django and react a good combination?

they are great

How do I take a JSON file that has user data and convert it into graph data in my python django web app?

So far I managed to get two graphs showing on web page with generic info. However, I wish to have it where one can upload a JSON file of random user data to be displayed in a graphical form of one's choosing(pie char, bar, etc)

I have managed to have button where you can upload any file and it is saved(I check admin side and see said uploaded files save so I got that going)

But no proper functionality to my web page

My goal is to essentially do this:

Making a single-page web app that displays informational graphics about the randomly generated users.
On the initial page load, the user should see a form that allows them to either paste the JSON into a text input field or upload it as a file.
Once the data has been entered, you should display the statistics in graphical form, using any charts, text, or interactive elements that you like.


Back End 
Please expose a REST API endpoint that takes random user JSON data and a file format as input, and returns a file containing the statistics.
Supported file formats for the results should include JSON, plain text, and XML. For example, the plain text file returned by your API endpoint should 
contain a line like, "Percentage female versus male: 66.6%".
For bonus points, instead of requiring the user to specify the file format, determine it automatically from the "Accept:" header in the HTTP request. 
The specific format of the data or text your API returns is up to you, as are the details of the URLs you expose```

[thorn igloo]

how does chart.js work?

nvm. bar graphs, plots and pie charts etc are normally produced with numerical data. sounds like what you need to do is basically use the random json data to produce numerical data that can be used to plot whatever it is you want

[austere eagle]

It does have calculations

I did percentages

On a python file I have

Of course the code currently is doing statistics /calculations based on the file I specified to open

But I do wanna have it tweaked where it can do it for any JSON file uploaded to page

Kinda like… putting puzzle pieces together

[thorn igloo]

what kind of info do you want to convey with your graphs?

[austere eagle]

Percentages

Sorry if I respond late moght nap

I feel tired

[thorn igloo]

just do a count then?

[inland oak]

I experienced big trouble from whitenoise. For some reason it served files with 4-8 seconds delay. Nginx is much better way, serving became nearly instantaneous.

[surreal portal]

Wonder if that's a good alternative to d3.

That's a good thing since I can't rely on matplotlib forever

Else I might be stuck with apps like streamlit

[desert estuary]

hello everyone i hope you're doing pretty fine so anyway i got some questions, im a newbie in webdev and im willing to become a full-stack web developer so im starting with the front-end (html,css) and i kinda grasp it a bit and in parallel i'm learning python and still in the basics(loops, functions and i will start in classes soon enough) and after that im thinking to study a bit of backend
note: i made two projects in python gui ( using tkinter i made a calculator and a tic-tac-toe) and now i wanna get my hands on the backend i still have some difficulties in the language itself "python" and im here to ask for your help, please :

1. how can i improve myself in python to go from just the basic to a moderate or even advanced level in it, how to get out of tutorial hell basically and start making ideas happen and to kinda go from that obscure big idea to the small technical details you'll develop in python and also if there is a detailled tutorial that goes from babysteps to big outstanding advanced concepts
   2)i find a difficulty of grasping the backend and a bit overwhelmed since i feel a bit inferior to where i should be if anyone knows a ressource a where i can learn the fundamentals and the basics of the backend using python
2. can i develop the backend using only vanilla python and without being tied up to framework ( i'm not planning to build apps in using only python ofc ill use a framework just out of curiosity and i might do that if im good at python)

[vestal hound]

no

building a backend from scratch is possible

but way too complicated for you right now

there’s a lot of routing code which requires you to have a good low-level understanding of networking

it’s not trivial

[desert estuary]

would knowing a low-level language( C/C++) would help me understand these fundamentals in networking

[vestal hound]

yes

but I would not reco building your own backend

it doesn’t really train the right thing

because the whole point of a framework

is to abstract away the details of routing etc.

so you can focus on the business logic

it would be like trying to become a better racer by working as a mechanic

like sure you might learn some tangential optimisation techniques but that would likely also be a sign of a leaky abstraction

[desert estuary]

ohh i get it and what about sharpening my coding skills in python what do you recommend i just thought to start python all over again from the very beginining starting with this

[limpid pivot]

I have an app with a home page, where there is a button named "Run", which when clicked will create an excel file that is stored in some location in the project folder. Now I want to give a download option to download that excel file. I tried with HTML attribute
<a href="path\_to\_file" download="file\_name.xlsx"></a>
Now this will download the file properly. But when I try to open the file in Ms-Excel it gives an error.

Cannot open the file, the file is corrupt or file format is not supported.

So I'm working on this blog engine in Flask, I have it all quite nicely as I want it including a fully functioning REST API.

Should I use a frontend framework? or just keep using server-side pages with Blueprints, Jinja templating, and all that? What's the decision process that goes into this?

I should note that I want this blog's viewing to be as absolutely lean and stripped-down basic as possible. I hate how frontend JavaScript's frameworks are so computationally intensive, but if there's one that is very simple I'd happily use that.

[minor bobcat]

In my opinion, a framework would be easier because you can use pre-existing libs, e.g. material-ui

[native tide]

I'm already encountering complexity, having to code up a lot of crazy metaprogramming solutions to manage Jinja macros, blocks, extends...

Are JS Frameworks inherently laggy, or is it in how you code it?

[jolly star]

how do you define variables in an html page ( jinja template)

[minor bobcat]

How you code it and depends on the framework. Next.js should not be laggy at all for example

[native tide]

Oh there's also Elm! Forgot about this thing

[native tide]

It looks like Elm's development has been stagnation. That is unfortunate. It's been ranked as one of the fastest frontend frameworks.

Is there any way to render two html files in flask?

like this

time.sleep(2)
return render_template('wassup.html')```

[ashen summit]

hey, is there any way to use requests_html to continuously execute a javascript command on a webpage then save the html to a file?

ive got it down to where it can save the original webpage, how it changes after the first command, but then after that it just saves it like its the 2nd page alone

from requests_html import HTMLSession
import os
session = HTMLSession()
resp = session.get('https://rgl.gg/Public/PlayerBanList.aspx?r=24')
a = 1
for x in range(170):
    if not os.path.exists(f'./bans/{a}.html'):
        print(f'Writing {a}.html to files')
        f = open(f"./bans/{a}.html","w")
        f.write(resp.html.html)
        f.close()
        resp.html.render(sleep=5,script="javascript:__doPostBack('ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$btnNext','')",reload=False)
    else:
        print(f'{a}.html already exists')
    a += 1```
here is the relevant code

what is better for react? served with npm serve, or perhaps better would be nginx

I feel like, Nginx is trusty and more secure way to serve react

actually perhaps it is so

[dull pier]

nginx ftw

[surreal portal]

I heard nginx was the n°1

Isn't traefikv2 its main rival?

[dull pier]

there are more haproxy is also good

[surreal portal]

Btw @inland oak I tried your solution and I have this error ERROR: for web Cannot start service web: driver failed programming external connectivity on endpoint react-frontend (5f3e24bb667b521ad65ba2704315a42eac3ad1a2e83d888ac5e55affe5dd039b): Error starting userland proxy: listen tcp4 0.0.0.0:80: bind: address already in use

[inland oak]

well, I am experiencing similar troubles

fighting with nginx at the moment for react

[jolly star]

when you return nothing after it gets executed also to do that maybe merge the html files

[inland oak]

having happy debugging time

oh, I actually was able to solve it

not in the best way yet though

yup, I solved for sure now

[inland oak]

there is in nginx 80 port busy by default

there is application running (basic nginx page)

COPY nginx/nginx.conf /etc/nginx/sites-available/default
RUN service nginx stop
CMD nginx -g 'daemon off;'

I replaced its default file with mine

[surreal portal]

service nginx stop shuts down the current NGINX service outside the container and keeps port 80 busy, right?

when you login the user using django auth you can access your user and user data using request.user, request.user.username, ....

ether in views or templates

I deleted my app from heroku, and I created a new one in the cli.

Hey hey just a quick question I'm using flask to create an API, i'm trying to get the client to send a .wav file to the server but I can't find much online to help me out

import requests
BASE="http://127.0.0.1:5000/"
with open('audio.wav','rb') as file:
    files={"audio":file}
    resp=requests.get(BASE+"SAVAVOICE",{"audio":files})
    print(resp.json())```

This is my client side

class SAVAVOICE(Resource):
    def post(self):
        request.files['audio']
        audio = speech.RecognitionAudio(request.form['audio'])
        config = speech.RecognitionConfig(
            encoding=speech.RecognitionConfig.AudioEncoding.LINEAR16,
            sample_rate_hertz=16000,
            language_code="en-US",
        )
        for result in response.results:
            print("Transcript: {}".format(result.alternatives[0].transcript))
        return ''```

And this is my server side

I'm trying to use the google speech to text API but I need to get the audio sent over first of all

Could anyone lend me a hand?

[tacit snow]

If nothing else, you'll need requests.post(BASE+"SAVAVOICE", files=files)

Then, on the server side, you'll probably want to do speech.RecognitionAudio(request.files['audio'].read())

Though, looking at the docs of the recognition API, it might need some changes.

speech.RecognitionAudio(content=request.files['audio'].read())

But I'm not sure about that part.

📍 Can someone gud at parsing,and commands please help??

[prisma canopy]

it has solved but when i run my 1st file it works and then when i run my 2nd file it doesn't work

[thorn igloo]

if the file present?

also did you add the route while the server was running etc

[prisma canopy]

see

[prisma canopy]

yeah it hink

[thorn igloo]

there's no bootstrap.html there

[prisma canopy]

in sublime text it is

i mean at the templates folder

[thorn igloo]

expand the folder

[prisma canopy]

so when i run firstapp it works, but when i run wow it doesn't work

[thorn igloo]

if this is the case, simply restart the server

[prisma canopy]

i did

most of the time

[prisma canopy]

but why this happens

[thorn igloo]

do your files have the same code?

[prisma canopy]

from flask import Flask, render_template

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route("/")
def hello_world():
    return render_template('index.html')

@app.route("/about")
def my_name():
    name = "rudransh"
    return render_template('about.html', name=name)

app.run(debug=True)```

code of first app

from flask import Flask, render_template

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route("/")
def hello_world():
    return render_template('index.html')

@app.route("/about")
def my_name():
    name = "rudransh"
    return render_template('about.html', name=name)

@app.route("/bootstrap")
def bootstrap():
    return render_template('bootstrap.html')

app.run(debug=True)```

code of wow

[thorn igloo]

ok what is the issue again?

[prisma canopy]

firstapp code runs and I can see bootstrap.html page, but when i run wow.py it shows 404 error

what;s the problem I dk

[thorn igloo]

how is the first app working when it has no bootstrap path?

[prisma canopy]

ah, okay. Sorry for disturbing. It worked, I restarted

thanks btw bruh

[mellow kettle]

So in my login model I should specify to request the user in relation to my username

[tacit snow]

Are you migrating from 'global' templates? If so, you'll still need to put the template in the templates folder in the app with the path you had it in the global one

[native tide]

I dont see global folder templates, I just create templates folder in my app dirc

why tf does my web page not update when i make css/html changes

i've sent the same exact folder to my friend and for him it applies the new changes for me it doesnt...

[indigo kettle]

css might be cached by the browser

go to dev tools network tab and disable cache

do i have to reset the broweser or?

no

[calm plume]

How does Django's template language introduce new syntax into html, do stuff with it, and not make editors scream in pain? How is it able to do that?

[indigo kettle]

probably because the syntax parser has been updated to expect these kinds of templating additions

[calm plume]

Ok, but how does it change normal HTML syntax? Some editors would probably scream, but they don't. Why is that?

[indigo kettle]

if the editor is not complaining then the syntax parser being used is updated and allows for this new syntax

or it is simply legal html and the parser thinks that the templating syntax is just text within the element tags

[calm plume]

Ty

[indigo kettle]

if you want to know the real answer you should see if you can find information on the parser being used in your editor

[peak lava]

apperently that didnt work

nvm it worked, but it only worked when i kept my dev tools open

[coarse haven]

the devs of the editor scream in pain instead

:^)

[indigo kettle]

normally css is not changing on each pageload so the browser will just cache it and use what it saw last time

I think there is some hot key like ctrl-shift-r or something which will hard refresh the page

and not use cached resources

[nimble epoch]

you using any backend? to render your html

[green star]

Anybody know where I could code a website using python?

What do you mean "where"?

You would use your editor/IDE

Would I just use repli.it

[calm plume]

You could technically use something like replit

[granite glade]

any advice on handling routes with flask. Whenever i see projects they're usually all handled in one file but i can't help but feel this formatting is for the sake of ease for tutorial purposes

[nimble epoch]

you want to use urls in another file seperated from views?

[granite glade]

i guess im just looking for best practice as i assume people dont just use one file full of loads of @app.route urls in. unless im wrong??

[nimble epoch]

you can use add_url_rule

if im right

in flask

search it

[quick cargo]

yes but the decorators are there for a reason :P

they make it a bit cleaner having the routes next to the function

[nimble epoch]

no difference right?

[quick cargo]

you should look at blueprints if you want to separate things into separate files

No difference in terms of how they work

the decorator is a helper function

it makes stuff cleaner

[granite glade]

so if you started a project would you have one file handling all of them?

[quick cargo]

no, I would use blueprints

[granite glade]

ah okay

[quick cargo]

[buoyant shuttle]

How do i know if the content of 2 array is the same as the other aray in js without looping

[granite glade]

could stringify and compare

[buoyant shuttle]

U gave me an idea

Since Javascript doesn't have it, I'll develop a third party app

[calm plume]

@buoyant shuttle Why not just stringify them or use a loop?

Imo, you don't need a whole thing to just compare two arrays

[buoyant shuttle]

I just made a function that uses loop and compare

It's weird js doesn't have a built in function like that

[vestal hound]

doesn’t work for certain objects

[vestal hound]

because JS uses reference equality

you would need a recursive function with cycle detection to cover all cases cases

[drifting radish]

Okey when

[vestal hound]

in the simple case…!a.map((e, i) => e == b[i]).includes(false) should work

Heyo so small question but I'm trying to send audio with flask over http post and then run it through the google speech to text api, I think I got the audio to send over fine but the google speech to text api isn't responding with anything and I was wondering if someone here could give me a hand

The client side code is thisss

import requests
BASE="http://127.0.0.1:5000/"
with open('audio.wav','rb') as file:
    files={"audio":file}
    resp=requests.post(BASE+"SAVAVOICE",files=files)
    print(resp.json())```

and the server side is

class SAVAVOICE(Resource):
    def post(self):
        #request.files['audio']
        audio = speech.RecognitionAudio(content=request.files['audio'].read())
        config = speech.RecognitionConfig(
            encoding=speech.RecognitionConfig.AudioEncoding.LINEAR16,
            sample_rate_hertz=16000,
            language_code="en-US",
        )
        response = client.recognize(config=config, audio=audio)
        print(response)
        for result in response.results:
            print(f"Transcript: {result.alternatives[0].transcript}")
        return {"data":"Gotcha"}

At the moment i'm just trying to get it to print it out to the server terminal but response doesn't seem to return anything

That blank line is where it tries to print out response

@autumn hedge hey

[limpid pivot]

I have an app with a home page, where there is a button named "Run", which when clicked will create an excel file that is stored in some location in the project folder. Now I gave a download option to download that excel file. I tried with HTML attribute

<a href="path\_to\_file" download="file\_name.xlsx"></a>

This will download the file properly. But when I try to open the file in Ms-Excel it gives an error.

Cannot open the file, the file is corrupt or file format is not supported.

[austere relic]

First of all, I don't think you need to give the download attribute any value

Because like, it'd just be the same as the href value anyway

Second of all, did you try just opening your file directly to see if it has even got anything to do with the server?

[autumn hedge]

Anyone know how to install or update a local version of Flask to 2.0.2? using pip

[limpid pivot]

when i tried to include the file name in href it download with "No file" tag
and yes there is file created after clicking run in the server.

@austere relic

[austere relic]

https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/venv.html#managing-packages-with-pip

is that helpful?

[autumn hedge]

I tried that already

thanks @austere relic

--upgrade yields the same error as well

[austere relic]

well, newest version on pypi seems to be 2 0 1

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

soooooooooooooooooooo.......

[austere relic]

not sure I understand?

[autumn hedge]

there was a PR that was approved that should correct an issue im having https://github.com/pallets/flask/issues/4093

my app worked using an old version, but partially works after upgrading to latest Flask

[austere relic]

can you maybe downgrade again until 2 0 1 is released?

[autumn hedge]

the 2.0.x and above release are problematic

[austere relic]

it seems like a very simple fix as well, so maybe you can just copy paste it into your version?

https://github.com/pallets/flask/pull/4094/commits/8f3cffbb9004165c6fac19ecb27cc0464f548157

[autumn hedge]

my working version was 0.12.5

good idea @austere relic

[limpid pivot]

When I tried to include filename in href without giving any attribute to download it doesn't even download the file properly, it says file downloaded but with 0KB with tag "No file".
and replying to your second query : When i click on the run button it create the excel file in server though ans it is properly opening (hope you understood)

[austere relic]

[austere relic]

okay. yeah think I do

one moment

[austere relic]

can you send the code?

[limpid pivot]

i will send you the repo link wait

[austere relic]

alright

[jolly star]

how do i set a complex url

[limpid pivot]

check dm

[jolly star]

@app.route("/admin")
def admin():
    return  render_template("Admin.html")

@admin.route("/roomdetails")
def roomdetails():
    return "Room Details"```
or
```py
@app.route("/admin")
def admin():
    return  render_template("Admin.html")

@app.route("/admin/roomdetails")
def roomdetails():
    return "Room Details"```

[austere relic]

is it this?

[limpid pivot]

yes

[austere relic]

It needs to go like this

<a href="../../../floorsheet.xlsx" download </a>

that's why it was downloading an empty file

download value is used to give new name to the file

not locate it on your pc

[autumn hedge]

looks like Flask 2.0.x is multi-threaded by default

which at times will cause my application to return the incorrect response values when both ajax requests are sent out simulataneously

[limpid pivot]

I have tried this earlier too. I told you that too in earlier text. It says No file

[austere relic]

did you try just accessing the url?

maybe it's not serving the file properly

[austere relic]

wdym?

[autumn hedge]

@austere relic so much to unpack and I'm not 100% certain if its the way my app is constructed or Flask 2.0.1 itself

my work around on the frontend is the delay each ajax request by 2 secs to avoid Flask from clashing somehow when each request is sent

[limpid pivot]

Thanks

[austere relic]

Was it that?

[limpid pivot]

solved issue

[austere relic]

okay well, as long as it works

[autumn hedge]

I really think its a Flask threading issue TBH.. just not sure But as I was pausing the python debugger to create this image, unpausing the process resolved each request as well. BUT as you can see the Menu data is also the same as the table data.

[silver cargo]

Hi,
Is there any advantage of using httpx module over using request module?

[austere relic]

it's newer

and uhhh

async

I use httpx myself

[silver cargo]

Yeah like if I am already using request module for one of my project
Will it make sense to switch to httpx in the long run

I am also considering community support for the module here

[austere relic]

I think they are awfully similar

You can probably just import httpx as requests and get away with it

I might be wrong though

[silver cargo]

Ohh! I'll check this out

Can anyone please help me with heroku deployment? I want to deploy my python app, also have created heroku app, added Procfile, requirements.txt, setup.sh files to my working application repository and have also installed heroku client. Need further assistance!

[silver cargo]

Also does httpx support synchronous request execution ?

[austere relic]

It supports both! you choose

[silver cargo]

Great! Thanks for the help👍

[bright lodge]

can anyone help me with some html ...i have right src set for img tag but image wont load

[vale aurora]

Send a image of the code

Where u have the img input line

[bright lodge]

can i screenshare ?

[vale aurora]

I dont have time rn

Im doing smt else

I can take a peak at ur code tho

[vale aurora]

Where is that file located

Maybe send it here in discord

[bright lodge]

in the static folder

[vale aurora]

And then copy the link

And replace ./static/img_5terre.jpg

Like send image here or anywhere really

Right click

And copy media link

That usually works unless ur tryna upload code to web

Then it isnt the best solution

[bright lodge]

yeah but why would this not work ...this was working when i worked on this project earlier

[nimble epoch]

try ../static/img_5terre.jpg

[bright lodge]

this worked thanks !

[nimble epoch]

yw

[vale aurora]

Yea iv never used images from static folders

Sorry

I ususally upload to discord and copy the link

So when i send the code for review i dont have to send the images too

[bright lodge]

but why is it that it didnt work earlier with single .

[nimble epoch]

folder path

[bright lodge]

yeah i wanted to do stuff locally ....later gonna use images from an API

[vale aurora]

Ye i just got used to copy link from discord... the issue is that i rely on discord to hold the images

Which has so far been decently reliable

[nimble epoch]

you not accessing outside of the templates folder you actually inside templates folder(same folder) with only single .

[bright lodge]

so ./ means path will be in the parent directory of index.html i.e templates

[nimble epoch]

yes

[drifting radish]

In this file or in the general of html

{% extends "base.html" %} {% block title %}Login{% endblock %}{block content}{% load static %} what block is no open

[nimble epoch]

{% extends "base.html" %}
{% load static %}
{% block title %}Login{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
...
{% endblock %}

[drifting radish]

a oke

jinja2.exceptions.TemplateSyntaxError: Encountered unknown tag 'load'.``` I was looking for a solution to this, I followed similar steps and no effects

!PASTE

code https://paste.pythondiscord.com/miqiluyawa.js

I do not know blocku does not see me or what

[outer apex]

I don't think load is a thing in Jinja is it? Are you using something that makes load a legit syntax?

[drifting radish]

I just want to go css to html and it causes complications so I checked it on the internet and something like that came out

[nimble epoch]

@drifting radish visit the jinja2 main docs probably youll find the solution. and yeah i think jinja doesnt have load tag.

[drifting radish]

ok

[drifting radish]

thank you so much

Django question - Weird thing. When I try to attach a function to a div it works fine: <div type="button" id="edit" onclick="edit('{{ post.id }}')">Edit</div>
but when I make it into a button it say Uncaught TypeError: edit is not a function
at HTMLButtonElement.onclick <button type="button" id="edit" onclick="edit('{{ post.id }}')">Edit</button>

[dense lava]

hmm

[vestal hound]

you know

that's not trivial

and

it's also not related to web development

like

have you even started on it?

or are you just like "I want help help me"

[nimble epoch]

do you have javascript function named edit in your code?

[chrome reef]

yes

it works when it get's called from a div, but not from a button

[nimble epoch]

oh no idea

[carmine terrace]

how can i post something in a livechat via webbrowser?

[void wagon]

hello , can somebody tell me how to reduce the font size in css by a specific percent , like 100px : 80%=80px

instead of hardcoding the font size

[calm plume]

If you're making livechat, then websockets would probably be your best bet

[calm plume]

x% is that size in it's container. So just set the container to 100 pixels

[carmine terrace]

no the livechat already exists. but how can i send a message?

[calm plume]

You would send a post request with the message content over the websocket, and then forward it elsewhere over a TCP connection

[void wagon]

i want to reduce the font size when the screen is less than 800px , instead of putting a smaller font size for the "mobile version " , can i reduce it dynamically

[carmine terrace]

actually i would like to post messages in a youtube live chat

[calm plume]

In Youtube? You just click send

Oh wait, you want to automate it

[carmine terrace]

yes

[calm plume]

I'm not sure, sorry

[carmine terrace]

ok thanks nevertheless

[void wagon]

@calm plume Youtube API ?

[calm plume]

I would advise either using @media queries or maybe (I don't know if this would work) using rem

[calm plume]

No idea, I haven't used it

[carmine terrace]

I am not aware that such an api exists.

[void wagon]

maybe try using it . might solve your issue

Are there any cons if I use httpx over requests module?

Like I get all the advantages like async and stuff, I am just getting my head around that why one would not switch to httpx

I have a question about the directory structure for a web app. How should I organize the front end and back end code? My friend and I are working on our first web application and we want to know this.

hi, been tryna import HyperLinkIdentifyField in my django app, is anyone know to import the lib, i've checked some stuff in google but it still doesn't working..

[quasi relic]

hey I need some help , I have an issue with saving uploaded profile pics from my form to db and also static folder

    hex_name = os.urandom(8).hex()
    _, ext = os.path.splitext(form_image.filename)
    new_name = hex_name + ext
    new_path = os.path.join(myApp.root_path, 'static/profile_pics', new_name)

    size = (125, 125)
    img = Image.open(form_image)
    img.thumbnail(size)
    img.save(new_path)

    return new_name```

this is the func

@login_required
def account():
    form = UpdateAccount()
    user_image = url_for('static', filename='profile_pics/' + current_user.profile_picture)
    if form.validate_on_submit() and current_user.check_password(form.password.data):
        if form.profile_picture.data:
            picture_file = upload_image(form.profile_picture.data)
            current_user.profile_picture = picture_file
        current_user.email = form.email.data
        current_user.username = form.username.data
        db.session.commit()
        flash('Account succesfully updated.')
        return redirect(url_for('account'))
    elif request.method == 'GET':
        form.email.data = current_user.email
        form.username.data = current_user.username
    return render_template('account.html', title='Account', form=form, user_image=user_image)```

I use pilow package for image resizin and save

basically the func accepts the file name from the flaskform and somehow it does not save it

[native tide]

How to add a chat option to a django website?

The easiest way

[calm plume]

Set up a websocket server and send message content over TCP connections

[thorn igloo]

maybe save the image first, then resize it then delete the original copy and keep the resized copy

[quasi relic]

nope, cuz this function works well the problem is with my form it returns nothing when I select a image then submit the update on an account

[thorn igloo]

so the problem is that you are receiving nothing when you submit the form?

[quasi relic]

yes

[thorn igloo]

oh

[mint folio]

Show the html

[thorn igloo]

is this flask?

[quasi relic]

yes

[thorn igloo]

can i see the post route?
