web-development

[patent cobalt]

I'm not sure what could cause that error, but there's not a lot to go on

It could be that something in the installation of uWSGI went wrong, or that it's a configuration error

[native tide]

I guess so, i will try to setup Gunicorn if it works

thanks a lot!

[thorn pollen]

TLDR; Flask or NodeJS for a web app (100k users) 0.5-2k active at a time.

I am hosting a web app for around 100k+ users.
Currently i have made a flask app served via gunicorn to be hosted on Heroku or another VPS.
It is not a big web app, its a simple service to allow users to connect their LINE account with my service and every 1hourly i send web requests to LINE API endpoints from the collected users information.

Q. Should I switch from Flask to NodeJS ?
I haven't deployed the service yet, but yes, tests works fine for now.

Q. Would NodeJS provide me with better performance in terms of sending web requests to an API endpoint (around 15-20k requests) every hour My service is a notification service which sends hourly notifications via LINE app

I need to be able to save user tokens when they login with my service, to some sort of database. Im using Sqlite for development and MySQL for production right now

*Database entries yet to be grabbed. So no database migration required. I can work on different database is need be.

[inland oak]

shortly speaking, if you want to speed up your application, use caching and load balancing

and it would not matter which framework you used

it only depends on where you remember/easier to find the syntax to implement caching between app and db

and at the same can be applied caching at level of reverse proxy, which is sometimes called web accelerator I think

basically, I think there is no difference between Flask and NodeJS in terms of performance, it totally depends on your skills to use it

[native tide]

i want to create a page (only admin access) where displays users list with all the data, how can i do it ?

[thorn pollen]

Thanks darkwind, i get the point. I think i should then just stick to Python for this. I have more experience with Flask than NodeJS.
Thank you

[topaz flower]

Hi. I have an application that I developed with the flask framework. I intend to send a number of real-time notifications from the server to the client. I want to know if I use a web socket or a socketio! The problem with socketio is that it cannot launch multiple workers.

[glossy scroll]

hey guys

How do i flip boolean value in django admin list action?

i tried this but it doesnt work:

@admin.action(description='Toggle featured product')
def toggle_featured(modeladmin, request, queryset):
    t = queryset.filter(featured=True)
    f = queryset.filter(featured=False)
    t.update(featured=False)
    f.update(featured=True)

[dusk portal]

make folder name "templates" note case sensitive dont make mistakes

any django (kind of exp dev)?

i need some strong suggestion's

[eternal blade]

Just ask your question

[dusk portal]

so sir i dont have any particular question but im kind stuck so i'm constantly working on django from last 2 months , i have made many apps like a simple bs4 proj then todo app then blog then user auth apps and was making a e-commerce app by own from last some days , learned many things but sometimes i get stuck how can i take my django skills to next lvl and i have saw Corey Schafer's Playlist , Clever Programmer 8 hrs vid and begginers those 10 parts docs .. Then while making project also learned many things like Search Functionality backend , now how can i get to more advanced + i have 1 kind of problem

[eternal blade]

Start learning something like django-rest-framework

[dusk portal]

ohh but i have to master this django

[eternal blade]

And make a api

[dusk portal]

ohh

ik what is api

but idk ppl say api

;-;

plz explain

i know api but then too idk

haha

half knowledge

[eternal blade]

application programming interface (api) is a connection between computers or between computer programs. It is a type of software interface, offering a service to other pieces of software.

[dusk portal]

and i have like 3-4 problems which i can only explain in voice chat or show in screen share

i have no teacher

self learner from india age 16

;-;

[dusk portal]

example

[eternal blade]

You see buttons like sign up with google in websites right?

[dusk portal]

yes

[eternal blade]

It uses googles api and signs you up automatically according to your google account info

[dusk portal]

oh that integration

ohh

[eternal blade]

Yes

[dusk portal]

first can u clear my 2 to 3 problems

where can i share screen

[eternal blade]

#751592231726481530 I guess you can ask here

[dusk portal]

ohk but can i share screen there

now i cant share screen

[fossil sphinx]

is anyone experienced in flask?
i have an assignment and don't know how to solve it.

[calm plume]

You can request video permissions from a mod who's in one of the voice chats

[dusk portal]

@calm plume
Ohk
And what's ur opinion

[calm plume]

I have no idea what your question is

[dusk portal]

@calm plume read this out
Question
It's about how can i move forward now
What should i do how when From where And why ..

And it contains what i have done

And Ofc Django query

[calm plume]

Have you messed with DRF?

[dusk portal]

Nah never gone through
Django Rest Framework
And planned to do it after mastering django

[dusk portal]

Like how can give users option to sign up with Google
Is it feature of drf

And payment Stripe Gateaway also idk

Like Youtubers put thier yt vid on thier site
By yt api that too idk
And Google Maps api

Idk that too

Umm

Are those all done by drf or also can be done by Django

[calm plume]

If you're looking to "master" anything, that's pretty hard. I say just learn the basics, and then keep adding diffrent parts when you need them

[calm plume]

Youtube videos on a website is an iframe service provided by youtube, not a django thing

[dusk portal]

And Google maps
And Payment Gateaway

[dusk portal]

I have gone too far from basics now lol

[calm plume]

payment gateway you could do through the stripe api https://stripe.com/docs/api?lang=python

That's not django specific

[dusk portal]

Ohh

Means i have Learned django

But but then too some too (i say insane lvl ) problem's which i can only explain while screen share

Like my Order History fun have. A prob

@calm plume

[elder nebula]

In django is it bad practice to declare divs and other html elements on views?

it sure looks bad

[dense slate]

What would that accomplish?

[elder nebula]

I am putting a list of week dates on webpage

And if it's today I put text into the div which says today

and also color it blue

[dense slate]

I think you should be handling that in your templates.

Based on what data your function returns.

[elder nebula]

hmm... It's a bit difficult, because I am wrapping the day name into <strong> tag. Maybe I just render them at different times, but then the alignment might not be always correct.

[dense slate]

So aren't you just returning the date? Could you just return a value/object/context that also sets the day of the week, and then in your template display {{object.day}} or whatever?

[elder nebula]

I'll experiment with different ways of doing in. Right now I return a list to the template and mark it as safe and that works fine for now.

[zealous lagoon]

how to i not let something get deleted.
i'm doing a contenteditable="true" thingy on a <pre> tag and there's something inside it that'll be gone the moment i press Ctrl + A and backspace how do i prevent user from doing that?

the html code:

<pre id="code" contenteditable="true" oninput="update()"><code id="code2" class="language-python"></code></pre>

so uh the code2 object will die as soon as i do ctrl+a backspace

how do i prevent that

*ping to notify 😄

[rustic sky]

Django admin, project hosted on PythonAnywhere. Why does the add page look like this?

especially the top part, everything else is fine I think

???

[dense slate]

Are you using some kind of 3rd party admin template?

[rustic sky]

No

[dense slate]

And if you refresh few times it stays that way?

Is it every page or just one?

[rustic sky]

yeah, refreshing does nothing....

[dense slate]

Is it different locally?

[rustic sky]

rest of the pages.... let me test

[rustic sky]

yeah

this is the main page

[dense slate]

Ok so it's fine on your machine, but not when you deploy it.

[rustic sky]

yeah

[dense slate]

I know Django 3 changed the admin templates a bit in terms of layout.

[rustic sky]

....this is a different model.... same result

[dense slate]

Well if it works fine locally, and you're sure it's the same code, then that rules out the code being an issue. Maye the CSS isn't loading properly.

Or some dependency isn't installed?

I'm just tryin to think what else could be different on a different machine.

[rustic sky]

hmm

I'm going to have to do a pip freeze

also, this is what it looks like locally... the dark mode... not sure where it is coming from

welp, the list on PythonAnywhere is really long, lol

though I ran the same commands while doing it on the site... no extra things where added

nope, wrong version of django apparently :/

could've swarn I got the right one (3.2)

[wraith pond]

how to update a flask page when its like refreshed like imagine i have variable

a = 'a'

@app.route('/'):
...
  return render_template('../home/home.html', var=a)

now for example i changed the variable to a='b' i want it to update when i refresh now, as of now when i refresh the page it still shows a

[eternal blade]

You can use some to reload the page

[wraith pond]

can you give a little example how to do that

[eternal blade]

location.reload();

Haven't tried it should work

And how will the values be changing while a user is viewing the page?

[wraith pond]

so like i would create a .js file then name it something then type this then?

[wraith pond]

i dont want while the viewer is viewing the page i want it when the user reloads/refreshes the page

[eternal blade]

so you want the content to change when they refresh the page?

[wraith pond]

yes

[eternal blade]

how will you be getting the value a?

will it be a constant or will it be a value returned by another function?...

[wraith pond]

home.html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>None</title>
  </head>
  <body>
        {{ var }}
  </body>
</html>

[eternal blade]

you can use some

[wraith pond]

?

[wraith pond]

okay

[eternal blade]

how will you be defining the value a?

[wraith pond]

it would be called from a text file

[eternal blade]

The text file contents wont change

[wraith pond]

they will change

[eternal blade]

Oh

[wraith pond]

is their way like when we refresh the page in a browser, it sends this in terminal 127.0.0.1 - - [26/Jul/2021 21:54:45] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 -
so is there a way to like reload the value of a from the text file when this is sent in terminal or when the webpage is updated?

[eternal blade]

then you can open the text file and read it and set the value to a, a will be what ever the text files content will be

[wraith pond]

so if i change the text file contents the value of a will chnage?

[eternal blade]

yes, it should

but if you are changing the value of a manually while the server is running it won't update in the front end

[wraith pond]

it didnt work

[eternal blade]

Show your code

[shrewd sand]

didn't realize there was an ongoing discussion will come back later

[eternal blade]

its ok, send your question here

[wraith pond]

app = Flask(__name__, template_folder="webpage")
app = 
with open('value.txt') as f:
    a = f.read()

@app.route('/')
def test():
    return render_template("index.html", var=a)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(host="localhost", port=3001)

[elfin remnant]

How to learn django if I'm stupid

[eternal blade]

put a inside the function, then it will read the file every time when a request is made

[wraith pond]

like this?

def return_a():
  with open('value.txt') as f:
    return f.read()

@app.route('/')
def test():
    return render_template("index.html", var=return_a())

[eternal blade]

[dense slate]

what's the error

You press submit and it sits there?

What's the form code in your html?

[dusk portal]

how can we create reset password functionality without ```py
from django.contrib.auth import views

[dusk portal]

in django

[dense slate]

why is there a space after eventform everywhere?

ok

I can't quite remember exactly, but either you can use action="" in the form to signifiy which function to use

but you shouldn't have to I think

but sometimes that helps to be specific

look up using a form in django templates and usign action="" in the form

the "" being the function to use

err, whatever, flask.

But you should at least be getting an error if that's the case.

If nothing happens, then the form isn't submitting through the backend.

Does flask have a debug mode? Like if a function has an error, does it display it on your page?

Yea so then there's probably no obvious functional error. It just isn't doing anything

https://opentechschool.github.io/python-flask/core/form-submission.html

First box shows them using action.

You did what in terminal?

Maybe take the date out and see if it works.

So you at least know your form works or not.

Uh no, just remove it from your form and make your function not require it (and of course make it not required in the DB if you must)

I would still expect the webpage to give you an error page/500 or something if the backend was the problem.

Before you do all that, just add the action to the form

like it shows at that link

the route in the quotes for action="" should be from your urls/routes file

that then points at the function that handles the form on the backend

ok and it's pointing at one of your urls?

and that url points to which function?

can you paste your urls file and the function it goes to?

So I don't know how flask works exactly, but this doesn't look right.

  project_id=1
  eventform = CreateEvent()

isn't that supposed to be a function?

isn't the @ just a decorator on a function?

👀

Without the date?

Sweet deal.

So at least now you know that and can figure out why that error is happening.

[grim cedar]

hi guys can u recommend any simple framework for creating blog ??

🧐

[dense slate]

flask or django

[grim cedar]

umm does it have all those syntax highlight ??

[dense slate]

so you have to find a way to match the date syntax, if they are different

what's the datefield on the form passing to the backend, a string?

usually you need to convert that to a datetime object on the backend.

print it from your function

print the value being passed into the function

Depends how you pass it. Maybe a value name, maybe kwargs/args, I don't know. You left that out above.

you might be able to print the post request

[fervent terrace]

Got a FastAPI webapp which I'm presently running with uvicorn.

I'm configuring logging to use structlog as I liked it's easy approach to getting JSON log output.

Now, I am battling uvicorn which seems to start some loggers - but its website doesn't cover how to override logging to any great detail. It only seems to concern itself with taking a dict based logging config, instead of e.g. some factory hook method one could override.

Anyone been in this situation ? I want uvicorn's log output, I do NOT want it formatted the way it is, I want to use a structlog logger.

[elder nebula]

Do you use flask or django?

[native tide]

django

[dense slate]

You can use a for loop in the template. @native tide

[dusk portal]

hey

anyone's up

!!!

[elder nebula]

Alright so first return it in the context
like so in your views.py

from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model



def my_view(request):
    User = get_user_model()
  
    context = {
        'users': User.objects.all(),
    }
    return render(request, 'index.html', context)```

Now inside `index.html`
```html
{% for user in users %}
{{ user }}
{% endfor %}```

in your urls.py
```py
from .views import my_view

urlpatterns = [
  path('users/' my_view, name="users")
]```

And you should be ready to go

i was looking to integrate my dash app into my flask and i saw a solution in where you can just link it and it appears like two websites how would i do that?

]

this si what it said

[inland oak]

you mean you wish to update the code of your django project automaticlaly in second project, if it is changed in the first one?

tbh, it sounds like you just should split your database properly between them

otherwise... i don't know, in any of them writing extra careful SQL request that is not tied to changable model as maximum as it is posible?

if necessary writing in raw SQL language
there are some other choices, but there are much worse

my most recommended choice: Split database proplerly, so it would be independent between them

as half silly easiest choice, make second application, requesting data from first one to make copy of db
or tie data with some specified key between those two dbs

Hey guys! I am going start to learn Django very soon. Can anyone recommend me the best, easy to understand course/video lectures online available.

Thanks in advance

[gusty wagon]

I have an XML file which in some elements I deepcopy the element and make 2 types of it. But they also have a unique field id. I try to seperate same elements by adding 'R' to the id. Well thats what im hoping for, but I cant override the value. Can someone see whats going on in here?

Deepcopy elements:

estate_for_rent = copy.deepcopy(raw_item_data)
estate_for_sale = copy.deepcopy(raw_item_data)

Changing value and printing it out:

print("sale id: ", estate_for_sale.xpath('./@id')[0])
print("rent id: ", estate_for_rent.xpath('./@id')[0])

estate_for_sale.xpath('./@id')[0] = estate_for_sale.xpath('./@id')[0] + 'R'

print("sale id after: ", estate_for_sale.xpath('./@id')[0])
print("rent id after: ", estate_for_rent.xpath('./@id')[0])

Output:

sale id:  12614
rente id:  12614
sale id after:  12614
rent id after:  12614

Output should be for example: estate_for_rent id = 12614 and estate_for_sale id = 12614. What am I doing wrong?

Is anyone here familiar with typed Django? I'm running into a problem with hinting authenticated requests that I'm sure other people have run into before.
The django-stubs docs suggest that authenticated requests can be hinted with an AuthenticatedHttpRequest class that looks something like this:

from django.http import HttpRequest
from foo.models import FooUser

class AuthenticatedHttpRequest(HttpRequest):
    user: FooUser

The issue is that foo.FooUser isn't always the user model throughout the project - this monolith can be deployed under different conditions, some where we can be sure that request.user will always be bar.BarUser. I'm wondering if there's some idiomatic method to hint request.user that maybe pulls from django-stubs' internal magick for pulling user classes?

Apparently doing something like user: get_user_model() is an illegal type annotation since call expressions aren't allowed, but I can't think of a nicer way to handle this

[carmine cipher]

Hello guys,I want to make a web site where user can enter information like : email,lastname,firstname, age ... In order to have them in a database.Can someone give some tips what language , framework are better to do that.I wanna need help.

[native tide]

hi guys i have a question. If i wanted to design a website manually, is there any website that would allow me to do that but also be able to provide the html,css and javascript code for the design that i would have made?

[gritty cloud]

There is this tool called webflow that allows you to visually make css and js and then export it

at least i think

[eternal blade]

You can use python as the programming language and django as the web backend

[signal bronze]

python, flask

[elder nebula]

Yes there are, but in my experience the css they generate is messy and use position absolute which can make the process much slower since you need to create the design for every screen size. Those are fine if you want to design, but for production, not so good. I would use bootstrap for those

[carmine cipher]

Thanks.Assuming I am a hard-working young person , how long that can take me to do that?I already knew a lot stuff about python.

[carmine cipher]

Thanks

[eternal blade]

do you have experience using django?

[signal bronze]

if you have never programmed before then it will take a few months

[elder nebula]

In django there's built-in users / authentication which takes user email, username, firstname and lastname date created. If you want to add anything to that, it's possible

[eternal blade]

Yes

[elder nebula]

It's pretty quick.

[signal bronze]

i still say go for flask

you learn more that way

and much easier

[elder nebula]

They are both easy, but flask is good for prototyping / doing lightweight stuff so django might be a overkill if you want to just store user data.

[carmine cipher]

I already programmed some stuff in python related to my jod

[signal bronze]

jod?

[elder nebula]

What are you planning to do with the web app?

[carmine cipher]

Definitely I must to learned Django.

[signal bronze]

When i was starting out in web development, i used flask and it was simple and easy for me to get started on a web application

[elder nebula]

Django is good choice, most companies use it.

[signal bronze]

companies also use flask

[elder nebula]

Yes they do

[signal bronze]

flask is so light and simple whilst teaches you alot about how everything works

[carmine cipher]

Online registration for a course .

[signal bronze]

use flask

you could do it under 100 lines of codes

[elder nebula]

Then django is a good choice in my opinion

[native tide]

oo i see thank you for the suggestion, ill try it out.

[native tide]

bootstrap for the production of the website?

[carmine cipher]

Thanks guys for your tips . I'm going make more research about flask and django and choose what is better for me.

[elder nebula]

You can use what you want. It was just a recommentation

[native tide]

ah i see.thanks.

[scenic dove]

Hello

I have been learning django for a while now but from time to time i feel like i should've started with Flask or something else that lets u build more things from scratch

[calm plume]

Django is a lot nicer imo, since it handles database stuff for you

It's batteries-included style is what I prefer more than Flask

[scenic dove]

So if u have been doing web for sometime and encountered with some web frameworks do advise me to stop and start all over againg or just continue

[calm plume]

For most projects, I'd use Django or FastAPI, both are really great

[scenic dove]

It's batteries-included style is what I prefer more than Flask
@calm plume yea
But there are somethings that i feel wired about
Like i understand it but not really or i feel that i got it but there's something in it that didn't click and i don't know what is it

[calm plume]

Django is pretty confusing, yeah. The only way to really understand it is build projects in it.

[scenic dove]

Yea im doing it
I made a poll app and a small blog app

I looked alot into djangos files to understand how it works but it is too complicated and eats hell alot of time, Pushes to think i should have started with flask

[elder nebula]

Django was confusing for me until I fully understood how it's supposed to be used

Like what is supposed to go into views.py ect

[scenic dove]

Was it ur first framework?

[elder nebula]

Flask is very good to build prototypes fast, that's what I used it for. And if I want to do complicated apps I make them in Django. The django is very fast to build big projects. Flask is fast to do smaller things and setup faster

You can do both in both if you want. It's just flask has less ready and django has more ready made. Sometimes django has too much ready.

[scenic dove]

I think ill start flask

[eternal blade]

Yeah, it has most of the stuff they want built in

[elder nebula]

I tried both. I use both in different things

[scenic dove]

K

Thanks

[dense slate]

Anyone use Django's auth in addition to JWTs? Like for password reset?

[gritty cloud]

i would agree. flask is very simple to start with. Django needs so many files bc it does butt tons more than flask

along with hundreds of other open source packages adding graphql, rest, jwt auth, forms, css, other db engines

[long jackal]

why is this button not being centered

.quickplay {
    position: absolute;
    text-decoration: none;
    color: white;
    text-align: center;
    margin: 0;
    font-size: 45px;
    background-color: purple;
    border-radius: 10px;
    padding: 0px 10px;
    transition: 0.4s;
}

    <span class="page-content">
        <a class= "quickplay" href="/templates/quickgame.html">Test</a>
    </span>

[dense slate]

It might be centered in the span, but is the span centered?

[long jackal]

oh that might be the issue

well I did this

.center {
    text-align: center;
}

    <span class="page-content center">
        <a class= "quickplay" href="/templates/quickgame.html">Test</a>
    </span>

didn't center it

[dense slate]

what's the page-content css

And what is the span inside of?

Because that div probably needs centering as well

[long jackal]

page content is just zindex + 2

and span is inside body

[dense slate]

Put span inside a div

make the div width=100%

[long jackal]

100% what

alr

[dense slate]

but that div might also need centering

[long jackal]

this is what I did

    <div style="width: 100%;">
        <span class="page-content center">
            <a class= "quickplay" href="/templates/quickgame.html">Test</a>
        </span>
    </div>

.center {
    text-align: center;
}

still not centered

[dense slate]

you didn't center the div

[long jackal]

oh

[stark tartan]

How to send code like this please tell me

[dense slate]

it's just a screenshot from a website

[stark tartan]

How you organise it

[dense slate]

it's a screen shot

[stark tartan]

Ohh

[long jackal]

well now its not centered somehow but close

is it from top left corner?

[dense slate]

There ya go. 🙂

[long jackal]

thats not the center tho

[dense slate]

Maybe there's a margin/padding somewhere.

[long jackal]

oop yes there is

thank you for the help

[dense slate]

Sure thing.

[opaque rivet]

yeah - I think raw SQL queries are the way to go... have both microservices connected to the same db (now, one is postgres the other is sqlite), but the issue is that both my microservices use DRF ModelSerializers which require a model, honestly I'll just manually change it it's not like the models will change at all...

[long jackal]

how can I move a button (<a> tag) 5 pixels down when I hover over it? This is what I tried

.quickplay:hover {
    transform: translateY(5px);
}

[dry obsidian]

I want to get into web developpement. I'm planning in learning django. I'm fine with backend and stuff but the only problem is front end because I'm not very creative

Is there some sort of drag and drop app for html and css

[versed python]

You'll find many WordPress editors. Wix, webflow are also drag and drop. Figma allows you to export you prototypes as html.

But it you want to get good at this, you'll have to eventually learn them and practice

[dry obsidian]

Ok thx I'll check them out

[mystic wyvern]

I have a website with a (react) frontend and (laravel) backend. I use axios for react so I can do CRUD Methods easily, but when I do a POST Method from an HTML form to the laravel api it shows this error (419 unknown). I saw some solutions but it was for laravel-react apps like the react library inside the laravel framework and they used blade.php to solve it, but thats not the case for me, I am hosting the laravel api and making CRUD from react just like a public api

[mint folio]

Make sure to be passing a csrf token with the request

[mystic wyvern]

@mint folio
How to pass a csrf token with the request and do I pass it in (axios) or in (laravel)

In addition, in postman the POST Method works fine with a token, it also worked when I POST it for the first time with axios (if this helps)

[mint folio]

Csrf should only apply to web routes not api. So you shouldn’t put api routes in web routes file as the web guard has csrf protection by default. https://github.com/laravel/laravel/blob/8.x/app/Http/Kernel.php#L38

Maybe this server is not best place to ask, for Laravel

[dusk portal]

anyone's up

app_name='users'

urlpatterns = [
    path('register/',views.register,name='register'),
    path('login/',v_views.LoginView.as_view(template_name='users/login.html'),name='login'),

    path('password_reset_complete',v_views.PasswordResetCompleteView.as_view(),name='password_reset_complete')

]```

@elder nebula u pro here wow

[elder nebula]

path('password_reset/<uidb64>/<token>/',v_views.PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(),name='password_reset_confirm'), oh you have it here

[dusk portal]

;-;

so whats the issue

[elder nebula]

The problem is the app_name='users', which means django can't find the right reverse.

path(
    'password_reset/<uidb64>/<token>/',
        v_views.PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(
            success_url=reverse_lazy('users:password_reset_complete')
        ),
        name='password_reset_confirm'
    ),

and import the from django.urls import reverse_lazy

you might also need to fix the other password views

[dusk portal]

ohh

umm

[dusk portal]

oh just need to import it?

[elder nebula]

yes

[dusk portal]

ohk done

imported now

[elder nebula]

it works?

[dusk portal]

umm so i need u remove

app_name

[elder nebula]

no

[dusk portal]

so

from django.urls import path
from . import views
from django.contrib.auth import views as v_views
from django.urls import reverse_lazy


app_name='users'

urlpatterns = [
    path('register/',views.register,name='register'),
    path('login/',v_views.LoginView.as_view(template_name='users/login.html'),name='login'),
    path('order_history/',views.order_history,name='order_history'),
    path('logout/',v_views.LogoutView.as_view(template_name='users/logout.html'),name='logout'),
    path('password_reset/',v_views.PasswordResetView.as_view(),name='password_reset'),
    path('password_reset_done/',v_views.PasswordResetDoneView.as_view(),name='password_reset_done'),
    path('password_reset/<uidb64>/<token>/',v_views.PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(),name='password_reset_confirm'),
    path('password_reset_complete',v_views.PasswordResetCompleteView.as_view(),name='password_reset_complete')

]``` this is my code rn

[elder nebula]

replace the ```py
path('password_reset/<uidb64>/<token>/',v_views.PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(),name='password_reset_confirm'),

with the
```py
path('password_reset/<uidb64>/<token>/',v_views.PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(success_url=reverse_lazy('users:password_reset_complete')),name='password_reset_confirm'),

[dusk portal]

ohh

same error @elder nebula

[elder nebula]

hmm

[dusk portal]

Reverse for 'password_reset_confirm' not found. 'password_reset_confirm' is not a valid view function or pattern name.

[elder nebula]

did you close the server and run it again?

[dusk portal]

yes

[elder nebula]

also

path('password_reset/',v_views.PasswordResetView.as_view(),name='password_reset'),

replace with

path('password_reset/',v_views.PasswordResetView.as_view(success_url=reverse_lazy('users:password_reset_done')),name='password_reset'),

[dusk portal]

yes yes

app_name='users'

urlpatterns = [
    path('register/',views.register,name='register'),
    path('login/',v_views.LoginView.as_view(template_name='users/login.html'),name='login'),
    path('order_history/',views.order_history,name='order_history'),
    path('logout/',v_views.LogoutView.as_view(template_name='users/logout.html'),name='logout'),

    path('password_reset_complete',v_views.PasswordResetCompleteView.as_view(),name='password_reset_complete')

]```

this is my code rn

ohh

wait doing

still

lol

[elder nebula]

hmm

can you screenshot the screen now

error

[dusk portal]

ohk

[elder nebula]

ohh I see it

[dusk portal]

hmm

[elder nebula]

change it to users:password_reset_confirm

[dusk portal]

ohh

but i dont have this template

[elder nebula]

hmm

[dusk portal]

but wait

umm

[elder nebula]

you don't?

[dusk portal]

if u see my urls

u can see name

i dont have any url named with

change it to users:password_reset_confirm
``` this

[elder nebula]

what about this path('password_reset_complete',v_views.PasswordResetCompleteView.as_view(),name='password_reset_complete')

name="password_reset_complete"

and the app_name is the prefix

[fast yoke]

guys

i got a question

this is my utility class:

.flex {
  display: flex;
}

.flex-y-center {
  align-items: center;
}

.flex-x-center {
  justify-content: center;
}

[elder nebula]

@dusk portal One solution is to override the file with your own template

[fast yoke]

is it inefficient to use display:flex before every center thing so that i dont have to use flex

[dusk portal]

yes it can be done ezily

[elder nebula]

like this:

path('password_reset/<uidb64>/<token>/',v_views.PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(template_name="password_reset_confirm.html", success_url=reverse_lazy('users:password_reset_complete')),name='password_reset_confirm'),

[elder nebula]

Try that, it might be the only way

[dusk portal]

then why would i use this i will just add template_name

[elder nebula]

because you have the reverse prefix users

as app name

otherwise django don't know which app to reverse to

[elder nebula]

I don't think it's inefficient

if it works, I think go for it

[fast yoke]

yeah it works ofc but its not DRY friendly

and there are a few more bytes it has to read

[elder nebula]

ohh I get you

So you want to center div?

[fast yoke]

xD

its a utility class

es

[elder nebula]

If you don't find any better solutions, I don't think few bytes of data doesn't make a big difference

and also that's not that much of DRY

[fast yoke]

yeah but i want dry

[elder nebula]

then make different class for every use case you need. No need to seperate them

[fast yoke]

Hi guys! I am new to web development and just finished a book about web development with django. Which IDE are you using? The book (written early 2021) used Pycharm Community, but i cannot even get started and supspect django functionality has been moved to the professional version of pycharm...

[elder nebula]

I use visual studio code for django, but also good IDEs are sublime text and atom ect

[midnight dock]

OK, thanks @elder nebula !

[elder nebula]

You should be able to write django with community version of pycharm

I think

[dense slate]

I would recommend vs code as well.

[midnight dock]

It seems like they made it a bit harder in the community version, but it should work according to forum threads. I'll give visual studio a go, seems to be easier to find youtube videos for it

Thanks Demi

[modest scaffold]

heroku no worky

[split steeple]

Latest version of Pycharm requires you to have the professional version for it.

[vestal hound]

you can write a Django app with any version of PyCharm

Professional just gives you additional integrations that may be helpful

[hard summit]

anyone know css lol

[vestal hound]

don't gatekeep, just ask

[hard summit]

que

?

[vestal hound]

don't ask if people know stuff

just post your question.

[hard summit]

how tf is that gatekeeping

🤔

[split steeple]

That's good to know then, for whatever reason when I tried to use Django with the current community version it told me that Django was for the professional version only. Maybe I missed something

[vestal hound]

the Django integration is, but the version of PyCharm doesn't affect what code you can write/libraries you can use

it's all Python

[split steeple]

Gotcha, thanks for the correction

[vestal hound]

I use Professional now and there's a Django starter project that you can use

perhaps for Community you can't do that

and need to set up the project manually

which is a inconvenience, definitely

[vestal hound]

hm not directly related but I'd suggest not calling those x and y

because they might not be if you change flex-direction

Hi, I'm looking for some assistance with my existing eSports web platform. Is there anyone that's interested in this? https://level.gg

[native tide]

from flask  import Flask
from flask import request
import base64
import json
#return json.dumps(params)

app = Flask(__name__)

    email = request.values.get('email')
    password =  request.values.get('password')
    print(email, password)
    logindata = {
        'email': base64.b64decode(str(email)),
        'password': base64.b64decode(str(password)),
    }
    return json.dumps(logindata)

r = requests.post('http://127.0.0.1:5000/api/login', data = {'email': 'am9obmRvZQ==', 'password': 'MTIzNA=='})

for some reason, when I run the above code I get this error
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/zubijaqufa.sql
does anyone know how to fix this?

[opaque rivet]

yes, need help?

[slim vigil]

so i dont know shit about webdev

flask or django at least

[opaque rivet]

requests.post('http://127.0.0.1:5000/api/login', data = json.dumps({'email': 'am9obmRvZQ==', 'password': 'MTIzNA=='}))

[slim vigil]

and how well does it work with CSS

[opaque rivet]

sends the data as a JSON string.

[slim vigil]

if at all

or HTML

by it i mean python webdev frameworks

[opaque rivet]

CSS styles HTML which is a concern of the frontend. Flask / Django are backend frameworks.

[slim vigil]

makes sense

[native tide]

yeahh

It works without the base64

Hi there!
i would like to write a django model field for user ids....i want it to generate numbers automatically but i want it to have five digits e.g.
00001
00002
... (continuing)
02345
...
99999
can someone help me out, i'm a beginner
we usually don't write the id field, but it's set to bigauto type so is their another typefield i should be using?

[native tide]

Can I use Django to allow users to download a zip file?

[versed python]

Is it necessary to store the id as a 5 digit number in db? You could always pad it with the required number of zeroes after retrieval. Messing with the default strategy does not seem a good idea unless it is really required and you know what you're doing.

If it is really required you can always define a custom field and change the to_python method to do it.

[versed python]

Yes. The response body can have the zip file and you should have to set a header called content-disposition to something that I don't remember

[native tide]

ehh I'll figure it out I just wanted to know where to start looking in the docs for something like that

[versed python]

Too little contrast between text and background. The background is also very loud and distracting. Reduce the opacity or change it altogether

[versed python]

Look up downloading files using Django :)

[native tide]

ok

[versed python]

Looks like someone in the Django discord already listed all the drawbacks to this strategy

[native tide]

i see...what would you recommend then...if i only want to save the primary key plain numbers in the database...e.g. user1 -> id 1, user2 -> id 2...etc...but i want to give the user roles e.g. user 1 is staff category A so id is "A0001"....that is what i'm trying to do

[versed python]

Ohh

Use a property

Wait lemme start up my laptop

[native tide]

kindly elaborate a bit

[native tide]

oh ok

[versed python]

class UserModel(models.Model):
  name = models.CharField()
  
  @property
  def get_role(self):
    return f"{self.get_role_name()}{self.id}"
  
  def get_role_name(self):
    return 'A' # logic to find the role name

user_1 = UserModel.objects.get(id=1)
user_1.get_role # should give A00001

[native tide]

ohhh...i c...TY, i will try this out

[placid sapphire]

hey, putting this here as this is for a website i am doing. i need to get rid of the ['']. i am very new to python this is my first project in it.

[versed python]

ids = data[0]

on line 13

[placid sapphire]

tried that, it's out of range

this is my complete format

[versed python]

what output do you need?

[placid sapphire]

without the ['']

[elfin wind]

anyone have any idea to work out this next_id
I think i need sth to access the value of song_id to add it with 1

[versed python]

can you give an example

[eternal blade]

Yes, you can return a FileResponse in your view

[versed python]

what are you trying to do?

[eternal blade]

Models have a id field by default

[elfin wind]

yes, it gives my songs value from 1 onwards

so i want to acess the next_id of a certain song

if a song has id 1
then next_id should be 2

[eternal blade]

You don't need the song_id field

[eternal blade]

You can make it a property

[elfin wind]

but i access my songs using the song_id

[eternal blade]

You dont need it

Models have a id field by default

You can do Song.id

[elfin wind]

would that be random or starting from 1 and onwards?

[eternal blade]

starting from one

[elfin wind]

i see

[eternal blade]

You can do something like this py @property def next_id(self): return self.id + 1

[placid sapphire]

i can just do it with a shell script, i was doing that originally but need to stop relying on shell for everything

[elfin wind]

aight i will try it
thank you

[placid sapphire]

aka just deleting the string [, ], and '

[rustic sky]

I want to start displaying something on my templates on and past a start date. I have a model with a start date variable... now I just need to figure out how to compare the date from an object to the current date.

I learned about this... is this correct?

@property
def has_started(self):
    return utils.timezone.now < self.start_date```
haven't tried this yet... going to

does not work. I'm not sure how to do printing or logging from a running django environment yet either

[versed python]

you forgot the () after now

it should work

[rustic sky]

turns out I can't use it
TypeError: can't compare datetime.datetime to datetime.date

I'm only comparing to date... no time, so

[versed python]

usage of @property is correct, you just need to figure out the functions to use

[vestal hound]

you can convert a datetime to a date with .date()

[rustic sky]

didn't know that, thanks

now the < > is what is confusing the crap out of me just by looking at it

between the two variables

if I'm interpreting it right:

utils.timezone.now().date() > self.expiration```
means... if today's date is later than the expiration date

expiration is another property I have

and I guess this will be for the start

utils.timezone.now().date() >= self.startdate```
If today is is the start date, or if the start date has already passed

right?

yep, that's what it is

that is confusing to look at man

[vestal hound]

@rustic sky just read > as "after"

and < as "before"

[rustic sky]

yeah

I'm gonna put that in comments lol

now, for django template language, how would I do more than one ifs?

if this is true, and something else is false, then go

past start date but not expired

[vestal hound]

try to put logic

in your view

as far as possible

[rustic sky]

I guess a really messy way is (if a message expires, don't show?)

{% if SysMessage.0.is_expired %}```
I don't like the look of that though

[rustic sky]

views.py?

[vestal hound]

yes

your view renders a page

from the template

right?

[rustic sky]

yes

hm, alright then

[vestal hound]

complex logic

should not be in the template

[rustic sky]

lol, I figured

so that means maybe I may not have to have those properties then 🤔

@stark storm I think you posted that in the wrong place

[stark storm]

a

@rustic sky Мне не жаль, что я положил его в нужное место, мой вельвет

[rustic sky]

@property
    def is_showing(self):
        return ((utils.timezone.now().date() >= self.start_date) == True & (utils.timezone.now().date() > self.expiration) == False)```
this looks like it'll work. Looks somewhat hacky

[stark storm]

Что это?

[rustic sky]

I don't know Russian...

[stark storm]

oo-

[vestal hound]

you don't need == True and == False

for that matter, you want and, not &

[rustic sky]

lmao

forgot if I use and or &

[manic frost]

@stark storm Don't post memes in an on-topic channel, and please only use English on this server. You might want to re-read our #rules and #code-of-conduct

[stark storm]

Извините за беспокойство, я думал, что этот сервер русский...

[inland oak]

translation:

sorry for intrusion, I thought it is a russian server

I wonder how could it be mistaken for rus speaking server 🤔

[stark storm]

@rustic sky Из того множества, что есть, мы явно можем запутаться

Ну, я больше не беспокоюсь, я выйду

[inland oak]

this phrasing makes no sense in russian. perhaps that's not real russian language

all word engings are wrong, not the right syntax of the phrase at all

perhaps it was made with translator

rough attempt to make sense:

Krys:
with keeping in mind available set of ???, we surely can get confused
I will not bother you any longer, I am going to exit

[rustic sky]

hm, alright

anyway

[rustic sky]

what's a better way to write that? lol

wait, I feel stupid

or not

yeah, I'm confused

[vestal hound]

if x == True is just if x

[rustic sky]

oh, whoops

[vestal hound]

and if x == False is just if not x

[rustic sky]

lolol

[vestal hound]

but

in this case you have like if x > y == False

which, assuming a total ordering, is reducible to if x <= y

[rustic sky]

the thing with the start date is... making it so that if it starts on that date, it returns True

oh

[vestal hound]

for that matter

you can consider

defining a separate between function

because that's kind of what you have, right

[rustic sky]

right.... trying to shorthand things tbh

maybe not the best looking ngl

[vestal hound]

also

if you don't want to do that

at least

extract the date

into a separate variable

[rustic sky]

yeah that's probs best

def is_showing(self):
        today_date = utils.timezone.now().date()
        return ((today_date >= self.start_date) and not (today_date > self.expiration))```

[vestal hound]

like I said

you can replace

not

with <=

[rustic sky]

oh

return ((today_date >= self.start_date) and (today_date <= self.expiration))```
that looks somewhat confusing

oh right,

return ((today_date >= self.start_date) and (today_date <= self.expiration))
# > = after, < = before```

that'll help

uh, whoops

fixed that

[vestal hound]

you don't need

all the parentheses

also

and I would say that "today" implies "today's date"

normally I use today for dates

and now for datetimes

[rustic sky]

I was worried today would interfere with something (it doesn't)

not sure why, so nevermind

well, I think that's all, so thank you

that was kind of fun, ngl

Python can be fun sometimes for sure

[long jackal]

why can't I change the x padding of the title

.title {
    color: white;
    border: 2px solid gray;
    background-color: black;
    border-radius: 30px;
    text-align: center;
    padding: 0px -100px;
    margin: 50px 0px;
    font-size: 100px;
}

    <div class="page-content">
        <h1 class="title">PlaySky</h1>
    </div>

it fits the whole screen

[next comet]

what do you want to do

im not sure that padding is able to be used with negative numbers

i think it's possible only for margin

[dusk portal]

[eternal blade]

Thanks 😄

[dusk portal]

can u help me btw some guidance and 1-2 problems

[eternal blade]

The video was a FileField

[dusk portal]

ohh

[eternal blade]

Sure, ask it here

[native tide]

yes i know but how exactly

[dusk portal]

app_name='users'

urlpatterns = [
    path('register/',views.register,name='register'),
    path('login/',v_views.LoginView.as_view(template_name='users/login.html'),name='login'),
    path('order_history/',views.order_history,name='order_history'),
    path('logout/',v_views.LogoutView.as_view(template_name='users/logout.html'),name='logout'),
    path('password_reset/',v_views.PasswordResetView.as_view(),name='password_reset'),
    path('password_reset_done/',v_views.PasswordResetDoneView.as_view(),name='password_reset_done'),
    path('password_reset/<uidb64>/<token>/',v_views.PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(),name='password_reset_confirm'),
    path('password_reset_complete',v_views.PasswordResetCompleteView.as_view(),name='password_reset_complete')

]```

[native tide]

"auth / password_reset"

[native tide]

here u have only password_reset

maybe is that ?

[eternal blade]

Looks like the password reset view is trying to link a URL pattern named password_reset_confirm which doesn't exist

[dusk portal]

hmm but ig u have been using this only for this

is there any other way for reset password

leaving this?

ig it's the only 1 and best

and we can add template_name also

so it's op

[dusk portal]

umm

this is auth cez

my main app urls

urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    path('',include('index.urls')),
    path('auth/',include('users.urls')),
]```

[eternal blade]

Try specifying the success URL in password reset

[dusk portal]

umm

what u mean

can u give code

[dusk portal]

edit in this and plz give gimme

[eternal blade]

v_views.PasswordResetView.as_view(success_url=reverse_lazy('users:password_reset_complete')

Try that

[dusk portal]

ohhk

[elder nebula]

what do you mean by app view function on another app?

do you mean view from another app's views.py?

[dusk portal]

damn bro

i still cant fix bro @elder nebula

;-;;

can i stream it in any vc

[elder nebula]

did you create the custom pages?

[dusk portal]

wait 1 min

i will

done

@elder nebula

but same issue

[elder nebula]

Did you build it according to docs or did you use a tutorial?

[dusk portal]

ohk for me let's skip thatt thing i have 1 more issue

wait lemme show

i have to wrap django in this week

from sunday

django rest framework

if i create any user by my register form it stores password like this so i am not able to login but if i create user through django admin then i can login damn bro

@elder nebula

def register(request):
    if request.method=='POST':
        first_name=request.POST.get('first_name')
        last_name=request.POST.get('last_name')
        email=request.POST.get('email')
        username=request.POST.get('username')
        password1=request.POST.get('password1')
        password2=request.POST.get('password2')
        print(password1)
        if password1==password2:
            if User.objects.filter(username=username).exists() and User.objects.filter(email=email).exists():
                print('Already taken')
            new_user=User(first_name=first_name,last_name=last_name,email=email,username=username,password=password1)
            new_user.save()
            return HttpResponseRedirect('/')
    return render(request,'users/register.html')

it also prints the password see

xyz12345

;-;

[elder nebula]

You should be using django's UserCreationForm to create the users.

[dusk portal]

ik that

but in that

we cant add own html

this method is good

[elder nebula]

ok so create forms.py and use cleaned data at least

[dusk portal]

but in that we cant customize our form fully we can only use things like crispy forms bootstrap

[dusk portal]

umm ik that but idk why we use that

is it necessary to use that forms of django cez ig it's not a good way

[elder nebula]

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/ref/forms/api/#django.forms.Form.cleaned_data

so the content is made put to consistent format

[dusk portal]

umm

to be frank im fed up now

[elder nebula]

Use this CustomUserCreationForm

[dusk portal]

ohh

[elder nebula]

for example

[dusk portal]

from django.contrib.auth.models import CustomUserCreationForm

and in forms.py

same

sad lyf!!

fixed that @elder nebula

def register(request):
    if request.method=='POST':
        first_name=request.POST.get('first_name')
        last_name=request.POST.get('last_name')
        email=request.POST.get('email')
        username=request.POST.get('username')
        password1=request.POST.get('password1')
        password2=request.POST.get('password2')
        print(password1)
        if password1==password2:
            if User.objects.filter(username=username).exists() and User.objects.filter(email=email).exists():
                print('Already taken')
            new_user=User.objects.create_user(first_name=first_name,last_name=last_name,email=email,username=username,password=password1)
            new_user.save()
            return HttpResponseRedirect('/')
    return render(request,'users/register.html')
``` its rule of django when we save anything in  user we should do

            new_user=User.objects.create_user(first_name=first_name,last_name=last_name,email=email,username=username,password=password1)

not

new_user=User(first_name=first_name,last_name=last_name,email=email,username=username,password=password1)

Op !!!

[elder nebula]

You shouldn't handle passwords with request.POST.get

[dusk portal]

ohh

so?

[elder nebula]

it's unsafe

[dusk portal]

ohh

so what should i do

[elder nebula]

You should use django provided methods for password handling

I think this is very good tutorial on how to create what you want

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZUb372g6Do

[dusk portal]

ohh

ok going to watch it rn

bro in this he's using django forms and django forms are like we cant edit fields inside it @elder nebula

for example

  
{% extends "blog/base.html" %}
{% load crispy_forms_tags %}
{% block content %}
    <div class="content-section">
        <form method="POST">
            {% csrf_token %}
            <fieldset class="form-group">
                <legend class="border-bottom mb-4">Join Today</legend>
                {{ form|crispy }}
            </fieldset>
            <div class="form-group">
                <button class="btn btn-outline-info" type="submit">Sign Up</button>
            </div>
        </form>
        <div class="border-top pt-3">
            <small class="text-muted">
                Already Have An Account? <a class="ml-2" href="{% url 'login' %}">Sign In</a>
            </small>
        </div>
    </div>
{% endblock content %}```

here where can i beautify fields

and for example i have used tailwind in my base.html

so when i will use bootstrap here in crispy

trust me it will look

ugly

too ugly

[elder nebula]

you can use crispy forms when using forms.py and you can also create field manually if you want

[native tide]

no nothing i fixed using return redirect

[elder nebula]

good

[native tide]

yeah

but now im stuck with another error

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'crispy_formsdashboard'

DAMN THE COMMA

IM STUPID

i forgot the comma in installed_apps between cryspy forms and dashboard app

[mystic wyvern]

hi ,is it widget tweaks useful in django ?

[modest scaffold]

hi, im trying to deploy a django project through heroku and it isnt working for some reason, im not sure what the error is and what im doing wrong

can someone help me with this

[eternal blade]

Check the logs

[dusk portal]

hey @eternal blade i want some suggestions

[eternal blade]

Yeah

[dusk portal]

do u come in vc

or should i chat

[eternal blade]

Send it here

[dusk portal]

bro ohk so i have a e-commerce site

i have functions in it to add files login sign up logout order history and order and stuff and search bar now i want that user can themself become a seller and sell

but i cant get idea umm

should i add another type of thing in User for them or i should make other Model for them in db

@eternal blade

[eternal blade]

You can use a one to one field

Eg: ```py
class Seller(models.Model):
user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
products = models.ManyToManyField(Product) # The products the seller will be selling

[dusk portal]

ohh

got it umm

so u have more ideas? @eternal blade

[eternal blade]

no more ideas for now

[modest scaffold]

for some reason heroku wasn't picking up on the procfile so i deleted it pushed that change added it back then pushed it again then it finally recognised it

a bit strange but it works now

[dense slate]

It should be test.test_title

  <p> Test: {{ test.test_title}} </p>
  {% endfor %}```

If you iterate over the query, you will be able to handle each individual item with the for loop just fine.

The first way you did it was fine, but you had {{ testdata.test_title}} instead of {{ test.test_title}}

Yea I don't think so. Go back and try looping over it again.

And share the code + error

make sure that the object returned from the function is the actual queryset

You should be getting an error that shows all this info on your page. Is this Django?

Are you in debug=True?

Ah right.

Yea, maybe flask does it differently then.

Are you returning one item or many?

Isn't get for a single object?

query.all()

so filter it

query.filter(thing="nameofthing")

[opaque rivet]

because a list is iterable, an object is not.

[dense slate]

A queryset is a list of objects I think.

You're returning one object with get

[opaque rivet]

Yes, .get() returns a single object because he's retrieving it with primary key

[dense slate]

so it can't iterate it

You're using an incorrect variable.

[opaque rivet]

test_id =1

testdata = Test.query.get(test_id)

looks like me that you are.

you're getting the object with pk 1

[dense slate]

so what variable are you looking up by?

test_id?

so query.filter(test_id=test_id)

if it's a varaible

just make sure you pass it in correctly.

are you sure it's called test_id?

[opaque rivet]

if you pass a positional argument to .get(), it will assume that the argument is the pk. So in this case it retrieves objects with the pk 1.
If you want to specify the argument use kwargs

@fair shale show us your model

[dense slate]

He's using filter now because he wants a group of objects.

It looks like in flask you might have to do query.filter(Test.test_id=test_id)

Just a recommendation, that these are the types of foundational errors that you should be learning to debug by googling a bit first.

It'll be a better learning experience for you.

Because these are like super basic flask functionality issues.

Learning to debug is a skill in itself.

Did you do a flask tutorial or two?

These would come up in any of them really.

Querying should be pretty basic. Try to get those down.

It's a skill you learn alongside learning to code.

You learn what errors mean, and then how to find errors in your code because of what it tells you.

So now you know that that error is telling you that something is wrong with the variable name you supplied.

So you know where to look for the issue.

At least you hope so. 😄

That's a good one to lookup and read about.

[exotic cape]

can someone help me here

i'm trying to make a website with flask

these are my init and views files

init

from flask import Flask

def create_app():
  app=Flask(__name__)
  app.config['SECRET_KEY'] = 'apple'

  #to tell flask there are bleprints containing different views
  from .views import views
  from .auth import auth
  app.register_blueprint(views,url_prefix='/')
  app.register_blueprint(views,url_prefix='/')
  
  return app```

views

from flask import Blueprint

#blueprint of app
views = Blueprint('views', __name__)

@views.root('/')
def home():
  return'<h1>test</h1>'```

[dense slate]

and main.py?

that's where the error is

[exotic cape]

from server import create_app

app = create_app()

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

[dense slate]

Oh sorry, it's in views.

ok

So it's trying to go to Blueprint.root

[exotic cape]

yeah

[dense slate]

can you print Blueprint?

[exotic cape]

k 1 min

[dense slate]

I don't know how flask works that much so I'm just going to think out loud here.

should root be somewhere in your views=Blueprint variable?

[exotic cape]

hmm i think theres something wrong with blueprint itself

[dense slate]

Just print Blueprint, not Blueprint.root

Right ok, so it's an object

[exotic cape]

yeah it printed <class 'flask.blueprints.Blueprint'>

[dense slate]

So root isn't part of it.

Do you need to set that?

[exotic cape]

yeah i'm looking at a tutorial to set up a flask based website

[dense slate]

link it

[exotic cape]

and its supposed to be using it

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dam0GPOAvVI&t=200s

im only like 13 min in

[dense slate]

why are you putting root

it shows @views.route('/')

[exotic cape]

ah

i may have gotten it mixed up when i was listening to him

thnx

[dense slate]

Probably good to look at the code. 🙂

[exotic cape]

lol

srry

i was looking everywhere except that

[stark tartan]

I want to build notification feature in my social media website can you guys please explain.

which would be best django channels or asynchronous views or any other package.??

[dense slate]

How live do you need it to be?

Since a request is made on any page load, you could just request the notifications anytime they changes pages if you need a low-key simple solution.

I can't think of anything besides websockets/channels for live updates.

[edgy anvil]

how would i go about deploying my flask application on aws?

do i deploy it on elastic beanstalk?

[gentle jasper]

Flask or Django?

[calm plume]

What are you trying to do?

[broken mulch]

hi guys im building a flask app, im wondering how to pass information to my script.js file

or just how to fetch data

[gentle jasper]

ecommerce

[calm plume]

I'd personally recommend Django for that (although I don't know exactly what you're doing). Django comes included with a wonderful way to interact with your database and so much more good stuff

[gentle jasper]

And flask in which cases is it recommended to use it?

[broken mulch]

how do I get backend values in frontend

im thinking using axios

[dusk portal]

when u have to make simple apps like todo app any simple proj a simple thing

contact page app

[dense slate]

that works

[edgy anvil]

can anyone help with this

[dusk portal]

i suck at dev ops sorry bro idk

[dense slate]

There must be a tutorial somewhere. That's not just a simple answer. It's a process.

[broken mulch]

so like

let password = axios.get(
    "my_url",
    headers: {
      "Authorization": "10RH9428HF98R12984HT"
    }
  );

this would work?

[dense slate]

I don't use axios much so if that's the syntax then maybe, sure.

But axios as a tool would work, yes.

[broken mulch]

what do u use

in frontend

to get backend data

[dense slate]

Apollo client. I use GraphQL so that's what I've been using for a while.

[broken mulch]

i see i'll check that out

[edgy anvil]

most of the tutorials are different and i don't know which one might be good. Like am i supposed to use elastic beanstalk or something?

[gentle jasper]

hmmm

[dense slate]

I don't know a lot about AWS. I usually use DO. So I don't know either, but it all should depend on what you need to accomplish.

EB probably has a purpose. If you need it, use it. See what the tutorial accomplishes and if that works for what you need.

[edgy anvil]

ok thank you

[broken mulch]

can I use process.env.NAME to access an environment variable

[dense slate]

Uh, usually.

Different frameworks can handle it slightly differently.

[broken mulch]

k thanks

[dusk portal]

;-;

where's that link

[dense slate]

it was fake

[dusk portal]

lol

i also saw

[broken mulch]

axios.get() is using the user's IP address to form the request right?

[dense slate]

Maybe you can check the axios docs.

or whatever framework you're using.

[broken mulch]

ok

hmmm nothing is working

my javascript isn't functioning for some reason

<script>
    console.log("hi")
</script>

even this won't work

[faint summit]

hi all. do most of the pals use flask with boostrap? i see from the tutorials, all use it with that tool, not a static css

[lost heath]

Does anyone know how to post this?

Like what format

[silent depot]

{ "code" : "3333", "qty": 1 }

[lost heath]

Other requests come up like that but for this one it doesn’t so that doesn’t work

[silent depot]

i am not getting your question ??
