but when i run it starts on port 5000

why is that, when i have specifically assigned port 8080

[robust folio]

thanks Man!

[limpid kernel]

Hi,
What is the difference between using django runserver and gunicorn in development?

[wicked nest]

any django and vue users here?

[pliant drift]

What happens if you set debug=False?

[thorn igloo]

how are you running it?

[glass halo]

hm

[thorn igloo]

flask run?

[wild iron]

debug=True basically just updates the server as soon as you make changes in code, and i assume if u set it to False it won't do that, and I am pretty sure the default is set to False

[wild iron]

Yeah i was actually doing that, then I tried python app.py then it worked properly

[pliant drift]

I mean maybe the debug mode prevents changing the port. Not sure, haven't needed to change the port on local instance

[wild iron]

Nah i fixed it

and that wasnt the issue

thanks for the help tho guys

[serene prawn]

Not exactly stealing but you would be able to make requests with victim's cookies attached to it

[violet mesa]

yeah the correct name is cross site resource forgery, but either way does the same thing

[serene prawn]

Also this doesn't sound like a csrf attack, csrf doesn't allow for execution of arbitrary Javascript code 🤔

[wild iron]

which is better for web dev, django or flask?

[dense slate]

Gunicorn allows multiple workers to serve your pages, taking the load off of one singular instance.

[dense slate]

Depends what you want to do.

Django has a lot more included, Flask requires you to install the libraries you want so it's the "light" option.

[golden bone]

if you have to ask, start with Flask. It's quicker to learn the basics with Flask and then learn Django next if you need it

[wild iron]

Alright

thanks a lot guys

[inland oak]

Ask questions in a right way https://pythondiscord.com/pages/resources/guides/asking-good-questions/

And I used both things

[wild iron]

why doesnt the <p> tag prints nothing

[mental summit]

It’s outside the block

[wild iron]

inside didnt work either

lemme send its ss

this is where i define the blocks btw

[mental summit]

There’s no block content there

[wild iron]

oh shoot

thanks a lot mate

i just feel dumb now

[lean jewel]

Hi! I'm trying to upload image, but it doesn't work, I get empty request.FILES. I feel that mistake is obvious, but I'm to dumb to find it.

My form:

class profilepictureForm(ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = User
        fields = ('profile_pic', )

Template, probably I'm doing something wrong here:

<form action="" method="post">
            {% csrf_token %}
            <div class="pos">
                {{form}}
                <button type="submit">Send</button>
            </div>
        </form>

[lean jewel]

ok I get it

I missed enctype="multipart/form-data"

[warped aurora]

// Add row on add button click
    $(document).on("click", ".add", function(){
        var empty = false;
        var input = $(this).parents("tr").find('input[type="text"]');
        input.each(function(){
            if(!$(this).val()){
                $(this).addClass("error");
                empty = true;
            } else{
                $(this).removeClass("error");
            }
        });

        var id = $("#id_hidden").val();
        var repair_id = $("#repair_id_hidden").val();
        var description = $("#cost_description").val();
        var amount = $("#cost_amount").val();
        var paid = $("#txtphone").val();

        $.post("/add_expense", { id: id, repair_id: repair_id, description: description, amount: amount, paid: paid}, function(data) {
            $("#displaymessage").html(data);
            $("#displaymessage").show();
        });
  
    });```
Following a tutorial that has this code to submit the values from the current row in a post request but I was wondering how does it know to grab the .val() from the current row when multiple rows have the same ID for each td

does clicking the button in the row switch the context to that row?

[signal bronze]

How could i update a page everytime a post request to the server is recieved? I want to be able to post images and it goes to the client live.

[opal coral]

Hello guys... I have a question regarding models in Django. I'm gonna use Django built-in model for Users, but now I got stuck. If I want to create model for user profile to extend built-in Users, where should I put it? Into new separate app or into current app? What should I do when I decide to add new functionality into my project. Should I create a profile model in new app as well?

[frank shoal]

A websocket is an option

[signal bronze]

okay.

[dense slate]

You can also look at using ajax for a simpler implementation if it's not a lot of changes. If it is, you're probably better off looking at a full front-end framework, a la React, etc.

[shy relic]

Hi all, I have been browsing google and youtube looking for an up to date and good answer, but am coming up short. I want to run a simple blog on AWS. I would like to host some jupyter notebooks at some point. Past that, there are no crazy technical requirements. What would be the best Python framework for this? A tutorial of some kind would be hugely helpful.

[serene prawn]

I'm not sure about hosting jupyter notebooks but if you want to use python for your blog you could use literally any framework

Django, Flask, FastAPI

Django would be the easiest to setup a blog with + there should be apps for that already if you don't want to code the blog yourself

[golden bone]

What Doctor said but also, only do this if learning a Python framework is your primary goal. If your goal is just to host a simple blog, there are much easier ways (I like Hugo personally).

[serene prawn]

That's true

That's why i said if you want to use python 😅

[gilded cedar]

Hi

I have a server as in ip address where it will take me to login to discord
but unfortnately after i login
this is what i recieve

Does that make sense?

[shy relic]

@serene prawn @golden bone awesome thanks! The primary goal is to learn a framework. I will go with Django.

[gilded cedar]

Hi can someone help me please

Am trying to connect to my web server but it aint working

[serene prawn]

Yep, django would be a good start

[crude stirrup]

when would I use flask async?

[serene prawn]

Flask has very limited support for async, why you think that you need to use async? 🤔

[crude stirrup]

when I'm requesting data to api

I think it's best to use async for that

but since you said it's limited support I won't

I'll let the user suffer for it

[serene prawn]

Docs say it would still process the same amount of requests at the same time 🤔

Because essentially it would create new loop, process your request in async mode and close it

At least if i understand docs correctly

You could use something like FastAPI if you expect a lot of interactions with other services ig

[crude stirrup]

I'm not making an api

@app.route("register")
def register():
request to api
check if exist

[serene prawn]

FastAPI can render templates 🤨

It's just a superior version of flask tbh

[crude stirrup]

I would use FastAPI if only it was compatible with my device

android device...

[serene prawn]

😅

Stick with Flask then, if you can't use FastAPI

[crude stirrup]

wonder if I should connect to my database using an api or just connect to the database directly?

[serene prawn]

Your api should connect to the database

[crude stirrup]

or just use an api when the codebase is good enough or big enough

[crude stirrup]

I'm thinking of using supabase because it already has api's

[serene prawn]

Never expose your database to 3rd party or frontend clients

Never used it

[crude stirrup]

wdym "expose"

the structure?

[serene prawn]

I mean like giving access

Even read only

[crude stirrup]

I see

aight

[outer shale]

what's the average time for a solo dev to do full stack on a website that has basic blog site features?

[wind halo]

hi, having issues with flask.
i have an error saying werkzeug.routing.BuildError: Could not build url for endpoint 'users.login'. Did you mean 'index' instead?

this originates from a button in a Bulma html file base.html:
<a class="button" href="{{ url_for('users.login') }}">... etc ...</a>

and here is the function for the login.```python
@users_blueprint.route('/login', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def login():
form = LoginForm()

if form.validate_on_submit():
    user = User.query.filter_by(email=form.email.data).first()

    if not user or not check_password_hash(user.password, form.password.data):
        flash('Please check your login details and try again')
        return render_template('login.html', form=form)
    if pyotp.TOTP(user.pin_key).verify(form.pin.data):
        login_user(user)

        user.last_logged_in = user.current_logged_in
        user.current_logged_in = datetime.now()
        db.session.add(user)
        db.session.commit()
    else:
        flash("You have supplied an invalid 2FA token!")

    return account()
return render_template('login.html', form=form)

my structure is as follows: 

templates >
base.html
app.py
users >
views.py (login function in here)```
when running the website locally everything is fine, but when i run the app on heroku or my cloud server i get the error. upon removing the url_for() lines, the website functions well otherwise

[split snow]

hello can someone help me? i cant find resource on the internet regarding this one

how to extract a array inside array to compile it in one array example

[[{"dog1": "doggy", "color": "black"}],[{"dog1": "harry", "color": "white"}]]

to

[{"dog1": "doggy", "color": "black"}, {"dog1": "harry", "color": "white"}]

[serene prawn]

itertools.chain.from_iterable would be the fastest way

import itertools
data = [[{"dog1": "doggy", "color": "black"}], [{"dog1": "harry", "color": "white"}]]
list(itertools.chain.from_iterable(data))
[{'dog1': 'doggy', 'color': 'black'}, {'dog1': 'harry', 'color': 'white'}]

[split snow]

how about how to get it hit the array sir?

[split snow]

i mean

[{'_id': 1, 'name': 'foo', 'score': '1'}, {'_id': 2, 'name': 'food', 'score': '100'}]

and if i have a parameter

"condition" :{"name":["f"],"score":["1","0"]}

it must hit 3 times

1. {'_id': 1, 'name': 'foo', 'score': '1'}
2. {'_id': 2, 'name': 'food', 'score': '100'}
3. {'_id': 2, 'name': 'food', 'score': '100'}

output will be 3

where are you registering your blueprint?

[native tide]

hello everyone, did someone know the equivalent of os.getlogin in flask, Thanks!

cause it returns the web server attribute

not the user logged

[gilded cedar]

Hii my server keeps giving me errors

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route("/")
def homepage():
    return render_template("index.html", redirect_uri=REDIRECT_URI)

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

[inland oak]

have you tried reading the error?

REDIRECT_URI variable is not defined but you are using it at the 7 line, at the end of it

[gilded cedar]

Ok yeah i am so

Am not sure what it wants me to fix i have literally defined it

[inland oak]

where? You did not define REDIRECT_URI anywhere

I can't see in your code
REDIRECT_URI = "bla bla bla"

there is no definition

[gilded cedar]

Where render template

Is

[inland oak]

show me where in your code you have
REDIRECT_URI=something

[gilded cedar]

_template("index.html", REDIRECT_URI=REDIRECT_URI)

Ohh wait

[inland oak]

that's redirect_uri=
i ask for REDIRECT_URI=

[gilded cedar]

?

[gilded cedar]

?

[inland oak]

you are defining only parameters for function
you can't define variable in a function 🤦‍♂️

@app.route("/")
def homepage():
    return render_template("index.html", redirect_uri="/")

[gilded cedar]

Ohh unless its my localhost web server that i have to insert

Ohh ok

Well nvm

Ohh so thats how it is?

[inland oak]

no idea what redirect_uri param is 😉

I have idea that u don't know too

[gilded cedar]

Well the redirect_uri is to direct me to the discord login

this doent help

[inland oak]

Quote from the link:

What Not To Ask
Q: Can I ask a question?
Yes. Always yes. Just ask.

Q: Is anyone here good at Flask / Pygame / PyCharm?
There are two problems with this question:

This kind of question does not manage to pique anyone's interest, so you're less likely to get an answer overall. On the other hand, a question like "Is it possible to get PyCharm to automatically compile SCSS into CSS files" is much more likely to be interesting to someone. Sometimes, the best answers come from someone who does not already know the answer, but who finds the question interesting enough to go search for the answer on your behalf.
When you qualify your question by first asking if someone is good at something, you are filtering out potential answerers. Not only are people bad at judging their own skill at something, but the truth is that even someone who has zero experience with the framework you're having trouble with might still be of excellent help to you.
So instead of asking if someone is good at something, simply ask your question right away.

can someone help me deploy my weather app please

just help me

ive been stuck for 2 days

Can someone help me with a project dm me plz I need help before 11 am

est

[robust folio]

what project

[summer beacon]

let's see the code

[summer beacon]

i think you just have a mismatch of names, as the error says users.login but your blueprint name is users_blueprint

[wind halo]

sent you a dm of the repo

if that was it then I thought it wouldn't be able to run locally

it's only ever produced errors when I've tried to host it

[summer beacon]

in mine, i have the blueprint names consistent everywhere and works for me both locally and on heroku so i would give that a go first 🙂

your code all looks fine, only thing i can see as issue is blueprints right now

[wind halo]

what would I change them to in mine? @summer beacon

[wheat verge]

anyone?

[wind halo]

also I thought users.login would work because the login function is in users/views.py

[summer beacon]

the thought process makes sense, but it works slightly differently in the jinja templates, its not like importing a python module if that makes sense

i've cloned your repo so let me have a quick look and ill find a solution

[wind halo]

thank you, I really appreciate it

been stuck on this for a few days and it's making me pull my hair out 😭

[summer beacon]

ahaha no worries, im bored in a lecture so something nice to do lol

[wind halo]

ah omg

guys, should i do template inheritance for my first flask program??
im getting confused trying to string everything together

[sullen spindle]

Hello Guys, we have used python flask for developing the website https://avilpool.xyz/. Frontend is html coded. Need your comments on this.

[summer beacon]

How big is the template? Is there enough overlap over all pages to make it worth it?

[inland oak]

googling "Jinja2 inheritance". Flask uses Jinja2 as templating language
https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/en/3.0.x/templates/

[spiral blaze]

thanks, the website isnt very big, im trying to learn template inheritance, stringing together routes, models and init is... interesting

[white delta]

actually u should better ask UI designers ;b
anyway

I think for your rectangle card things would look good a bit of hover animation:

.card {
  transition: transform 0.5s;
}

.card:hover {
  transform: scale(1.05);
}

[inland oak]

and u have messed up width of top level objects
Let me guess, u a using javascript to do that. That's really bad.
Use CSS for that. Using anything else but CSS for responsiveness is a really bad idea 😉

Remove the javascript animation that does it. That just harms

Sometimes it works, sometimes it wents bad

I'm having a problem on setting my favicon and navbar img in html5 (with Flask)...
I have this '<link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="../images/favicon.ico">' for setting it, but it doesn't get imported.
My folder structure:
website
---images
-----favicon.ico

---templates
------base.html

---main.py

My os.getcwd() is within website, but I still can't access the file...

[inland oak]

Root folder for static objects is not from where template is located

But from which static folder path is set in flask settings

https://www.google.com/search?q=flask+static+folder+path

By convention, Flask looks for a folder named static next to your application, and serves the files there at the /static/<path:filename> URL, matching all the files in your static folder and its subdirectories.

[vital ruin]

Thank you so so much!!! I got it working now

Hey, I could need help with my hcaptcha integration (no bypass...)...
I use Flask-hCaptcha to integrate it to one page of my Flask website.
Here's what I aim to do:
I want the only thing on the page to be captcha and after it got solved I want to redirect the user to a specific website.

I made an account on hcaptcha and set the values for hcaptcha in the config ('RECAPTCHA_SITE_KEY' & 'RECAPTCHA_SECRET_KEY')

I use this code for rendering:

@app.route('/verify', methods=["GET", "POST"])
def discord():
    if request.method == "GET":
        return render_template('verify.html')

    elif request.method == "POST":
        if hcaptcha.verify():
            return "You have completed the captcha!"
        else:
            return "Please complete the captcha"

This is my verify.html:

{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% block title %}Verify{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
<form method="POST">
  <label for="text_input">Name</label>
  <input type="text" id="text_input" name="text_input" />
  <input type="submit" value="Submit" />

  {{ hcaptcha }}
</form>
{% endblock %}

My problems:

- The hcaptcha is not showing up
- I can just click on the submit button and get redirected with a success...

I first want to get this captcha to work, so any help would be appreciated ^^

[dense slate]

I don't see where you're returning hcaptcha context in the function.

I've not used that library but the function probably needs to tell the template what hcaptcha is, since you're using {{hcaptcha}}.

def hello(name=None):
    return render_template('hello.html', name=name)

[vital ruin]

Yes, I thought so too, but after looking through some other peoples examples and documentation (well... there isn't really any doc) it's not needed

[dense slate]

Hmm, maybe the library has something built in then, but if it doesn't then you would need that.

Otherwise, what tells the template what {{hcaptcha}} is?

[gilded cedar]

Hello can someone help me?

[vital ruin]

Well... For others it seemed to work... I now again integrated it, but it doesn't change anything

[polar phoenix]

Why python frameworks (Fastapi) is not suited for production in Windows

[inland oak]

Windows licenses are expensive, and microsoft demands constant access to all servers that run windows servers

Windows consumes a lot of server resources even if it is not running anything, which again increases cost to run windows servers

Windows is a hell of unsafe

That makes windows usable only as Desktop thing as development environment as maximum (but linux is better even in this regard, because linux usage is much better when you develop for linux servers)

[inland oak]

Windows is best used when it is used.... to develop for windows, applications?
Game development and Desktop app development basically.

and Windows Server makes probably sense to use only when you are system administrator, regulating a techno park out of many PCs with installed Windowses (Not sure for sure though, because certain amount of things can be replaced with linux server even in this case, but some things can not be replaced though, so it depends on tech stack)

[stark tartan]

But why then liunx severs are prefer more than windows

[finite laurel]

Can anyone tell me how I can send a canvas image from frontend to backend flask app?

[stark tartan]

You can convert canvas images to png or jpeg and send it

[inland oak]

I told you already, because Linuxes are free in licenses (we pay only for hardware), and because they are more efficient in hardware utilization and more secure.
And because of the above reasons and long time usage, linux already has a lot of production grade software for servers, leaving other oses very much behind.
There are no alternatives. Linux is the only free system

[stark tartan]

When you told me bro

[finite laurel]

Can you tell me how to send it via Axios or Ajax

[inland oak]

just @stark tartan above your question

[stark tartan]

You can use form data

[stark tartan]

Ohh yeh thanks

Linux is devlops 👍

[inland oak]

what is devlops? 😉

[finite laurel]

Can you send a link?

[stark tartan]

Developer + linux

[stark tartan]

Link.com

[finite laurel]

That's a lot of help. Thanks a ton

Hey I want to filter the name and description with different languages like I also able to search same thing in other languages in Django Rest framework

[inland oak]

I did not understand what u wish to achieve. be more precise

[stark tartan]

You can refer mozila documentation for these

[stark tartan]

Search the same item like apple 🍎 in english if user search or in other languages like सेब in hindi (India language)

Like Amazon is doing

[stark tartan]

Fastapi use async gateway

[inland oak]

it sounds like you need Google Translator API
it can recognize currently used language
and translate reliably to any other lang

[stark tartan]

Okay I will look fwd in that 👍

[polar phoenix]

can you elaborate please

[sturdy jungle]

in desktop view the button is in center

I'll quote one famous man then

[dusty arch]

im a serving a react app with a flask backend and everything seems to flow smoothly but upon refresh, the browser redirects to the flask api instead of staying on react router, which is the expected behavior. any workarounds for this ?

@app.route('/')
def serve():
    return send_from_directory(app.static_folder, 'index.html')

[inland oak]

spill the details what you use to serve them

[dusty arch]

im using this to serve the react app

[inland oak]

okay. interesting perversion. let me think 🤔

usually people try an approach...

serving both things with Nginx

you could have served react at / route

while serving flask strictly at /api route for example

it should work better I think

[dusty arch]

im not familiar with nginx

will that solve the refresh issue ?

[sturdy jungle]

yes

[inland oak]

supposedly yes, but I am not hundred percent sure
I would say with 90% probability

[dusty arch]

the problem is with refresh

[sturdy jungle]

oh yea I forgot

[dusty arch]

i thought about defining a route in the end that accepts all undefined routes and redirect to the react app with the above function

[sturdy jungle]

[dusty arch]

but this will redirect to the home page instead of where the refresh actually took place

[inland oak]

nginx should help with 90% chance

[inland oak]

you did not give the image so i made as much as I saw it

.bgimage {
    background: url('bgbi.jpg');
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: center;
    background-size:cover;
    background-attachment:initial;
    
    /* centralizing stuff */
    width: 100%;
    height: 100vh;
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
    justify-content: center;

  }
  .bgimage h5 {
    color:white;
    text-shadow:2px 2px #333;
    text-align: center;
  }
  .row{
    display: flex;
    margin:auto;
    justify-content: center;
    overflow: hidden;
  }

deleted some of the mess (but not all of the mess) and placed centeralizer for you

[dusty arch]

im serving with heroku currently

[inland oak]

• feel free to centralize the words too

  .layout-btn {
    justify-content: center;
    align-items: center;

    display: flex;
  }

[inland oak]

perhaps the time to use better way of hosting

that you own more

getting regular VPS for shit and giggles 😉

[dusty arch]

the problem is im looking for free stuff

[dusty arch]

yea i should get some 😆

[inland oak]

google gives free period for a quite long period

[dusty arch]

ofr a vps ?

[inland oak]

from 3 to 12 month depending on the type of VPS

yeah

[dusty arch]

ah damn

thats a good skill to learn

custom hosting

[inland oak]

or was it in AWS? I don't remember

check both 😉

[dusty arch]

i gotta install all dependencies and setup the environment manually right ? 😆

[dusty arch]

aws does provide this kind of services i guess

[inland oak]

AWS I remember offers 3 months of free usage VPSes in comfortable Lightsale section
and 12 month of IC2, less comfortable being used in GUI, intended for IaC

[dusty arch]

are vps restricted in some way ?

[inland oak]

Google provides trial of 300$ for 6 months i think

[dusty arch]

or u can do anything on them

[dusty arch]

this isnt very affordable to someone not doing any serious production yet

[inland oak]

300$ credit for free

just to try products

why is it not affordable? it is free 😉

[dusty arch]

oh yea i misunderstood what u said i guess

[inland oak]

hard to say.
There are two possible limitations

[dusty arch]

ill definitely take a look, and ill try solving that bug now

[inland oak]

1. AWS is a bit strict in security, so they have their firewall at least for Lightsale category setup always on from their web site GUI.

so you would need to open ports in GUI

2. It could be having some limits for CPU power?

for testing purposes u can surely try it, they give I think 1 CPU power for this period for sure to run 24/7

but anything more than that, not in the free section

[dusty arch]

thats interesting

ill take a look

thanks

[inland oak]

u a welcome. Azure could be having possibly some similar big enough offer

AWS / Google/ Azure are big three known providers

they can afford doing it

There are small good providers in addition, but they give only smth like 1-2 months at best of free trials

[dusty arch]

if u dont mind me asking

what is the difference exactly between these and something like heroku or similar platforms

for deployment

[inland oak]

I usually recommend
AWS / Google / Azure / DigitalOcean / Linode / Vultr because they are providing means to have Infrastructure as a code (can be controlled being setup from code)
with usage from VPSes to managed Kuberenetes to Managed databases

while Heroki... did not try a lot, but i guess they provide running App as a service first. Basically VPS is abstracted away by being presetup for you / + scaling of infrastructure
As far as I know DigitalOcean provides hosting applications too, it should be similar experience to Heroku in theory.
Probably other providers have same feature

I just don't try it, because i prefer to worry about my infrastructure on my own

it gives bigger flexibility to control stuff and room for more custom complex infrastructure
well, may be managed app can actually do better in some cases, but if I would have used managed apps services, I would not learn how to wield infrastructure on my own
Which is essential to DevOps related field

[dusty arch]

Oh okay i get it now

👍

[dense slate]

I think DOs managed service is more like Vercel, where updating your github repo automatically redploys to DO.

But still abstracting out the setup process, yea.

@inland oak Have you ever manually setup auto-redeploy on DO?

Just with the standard droplets.

[inland oak]

Having it setup at work by my own hands

Even better, a month ago upgraded being auto deployed to kubernetes

[dense slate]

I would like to learn that process for DO, so I can just stop having to setup new servers from scratch and maybe setup a no-downtime solution in the future.

[inland oak]

Gitlab CI is friendly.

Minimalistic beginner solution would be
Gitlab CI + Ansible
With highly recommending adding Docker to it

Optionally adding Terraform or Pulumi for a full pipeline

[inland oak]

Gitlab CI watches repository and executes jobs at every commit

Ansible connects remotely to servers and makes initial configuration, installing docker or dependencies to applications if without it. Launches / restarts what is needed

Docker is abstracting away a bunch of tasks you would have been doing by ansible otherwise

Terraform automates clicking cloud provider GUI, to buy necessary servers / naming them / setting up domain settings / optionally load balancers. Getting their IP addresses

[inland oak]

Well, no down time solution means using stuff like Kubernetes already ;)

Possible to do without it technically. But k8s offers it out of the box with like almost zero code

[dense slate]

Ah, good to know.

[jaunty magnet]

how do I install latest version? I want to install the latest minor relase for django 3.2. Instead of pipenv install django==3.2.0. it's something different but i forgot?

When I attempt to run the server, the TiffModel page fails to load

[cerulean badge]

(context django) how do I know in disconnect method of consumer if it was closed before accepting or after? I saw it has close_code but the docs don't say much about it

[quaint mural]

Hello all, I am looking to see if anyone has experience with the Johnson Controls API?

[native tide]

can you link the docs

[cerulean badge]

you gonna quickly get experience or what lol

must be very pro then

oh

nah

mostly just so people who've worked with it can spot it

more quickly

[native tide]

what is your question regardless

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

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

I found status codes here https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6455#section-7.4.1 , does django consumer use code 1006 only when self.close called before self.accept?

[stark tartan]

I think you are right

[cerulean badge]

I am passing custom code (4000) to self.close but in disconnect method I still recieve 1006 why?

[buoyant cypress]

Hellooooo

im quite new to django framework and i want to make an auth system with jwt httpOnly Cookies

[thorny rover]

If anyone is able to give feedback on what comes to mind when you see these colors that would be magnificent!

[dense slate]

Awesome! Let us know how it goes!

[dense slate]

Sage/nature maybe, and the right side looks like a sliding card.

[buoyant cypress]

i like them

i feel like peace

[thorny rover]

Thanks for those answers! Doing some brand research and stuff like this helps get other opinions on how people associate to colors together

[buoyant cypress]

when i'm trying to test my app with postman sending data to get the status i always get this:

{
    "detail": "Authentication credentials were not provided."
}

instead of this or this

{
    "success": "User created."
}
{
    "error": "Some error on signup"
}

[dense slate]

Are you using graphene?

[buoyant cypress]

nope

i'm following a tutorial using rest_framework

[dense slate]

Usually that's a default response code from libraries that work with JWT

oh, I mean django-jwt

[buoyant cypress]

yess

[dense slate]

Yea it means you need to be logged in, so you might be setting that somewhere in your user signup by accident.

[buoyant cypress]

but in the tutorial he makes the posts requests without that message

[dense slate]

Helps to see your code.

[buoyant cypress]

okay

should i push it to github?

[dense slate]

You can

Or just share the relevant part here

[buoyant cypress]

okay

on my settings.py i have this

REST_FRAMEWORK = {
    "DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES": [
        "rest_framework.permissions.IsAuthenticated",
    ],
    "DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES": (
        "rest_framework_simplejwt.authentication.JWTAuthentication",
    ),
}

SIMPLE_JWT = {
    "ACCESS_TOKEN_LIFETIME": timedelta(minutes=30),
    "REFRESH_TOKEN_LIFETIME": timedelta(days=1),
    "ROTATE_REFRESH_TOKENS": True,
    "BLACKLIST_AFTER_ROTATION": True,
    "AUTH_HEADER_TYPES": ("Bearer",),
    "AUTH_TOKEN_CLASSES": ("rest_framework_simplejwt.tokens.AccessToken",),
}

and my register view just takes the data and works with that info

[dense slate]

Check your middleware as well - I think django-jwt requires a specific placement of the library at a certain level

maybe first

[buoyant cypress]

this is mine

MIDDLEWARE = [
    "django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware",
    "django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware",
    "corsheaders.middleware.CorsMiddleware",
    "django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware",
    "django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware",
    "django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware",
    "django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware",
    "django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware",
]```

[dense slate]

where's the djangojwt middleware?

pretty sure the docs will show what to put in there

I just don't remember off the top of my head

It needs to be above sessionsmiddleware I believe

[buoyant cypress]

okay

i will look on the docs

[buoyant cypress]

[orchid flicker]

__init__.py'>' does not appear to have any patterns in it. If you see the 'urlpatterns' variable with valid patterns in the file then the issue is probably caused by a circular import.
i have this error in django rest framework. dose anyone have idea?

from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include
urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    path('api/', include('Products') ),
]

this is my urls file in the project

[dense slate]

where is Products coming from?

Products.py with its own urlpatterns?

[orchid flicker]

its an app, is the solution Products.urls?

[dense slate]

Not sure you can import an app this way?

I think you can only include other files with urlpatterns

The docs show listing them in urls.py, or importing other app-level urls.py into the main project urls.py file.

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/topics/http/urls/

Oh snap, django 4 is out

[prisma thistle]

Hello #web-development , i have a problem with my administration panel using django version 2.1, i am not using the latest version because i am doing a specific project, anyways, after creating a table in admin.py ‘’’admin.site.register(Product)’’’ i went to the admin panel to add a product, everything is smooth but when i pressed save it gives me this error: no such table: main.auth_user__old

If anyone is familiar with this problem I’d appreciate the help

[dense slate]

First link on google:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53637182/django-no-such-table-main-auth-user-old

Did that not work?

The problem is caused by the modified behaviour of the ALTER TABLE RENAME statement in SQLite 3.26.0 (see compatiblity note). They also introduced the PRAGMA legacy_alter_table = ON statement in order to maintain the compatibility with previous versions. The upcoming Django release 2.1.5 utilizes the previously mentioned statement as a hotfix. It's expected on January 1, 2019.

You're trying to do a discord login in a flask app?

I don't know but I'm sure there are some tutorials about it.

[gilded cedar]

Well not flask any more am doing with quart

[white delta]

Thanks a lot man

[jaunty depot]

hey guys
question from a newbie here - I was wondering how does actually a website work in terms of storing different data in the same pieces of code/variables
meaning, there is one and only code for some website, but different users can input their own unique values (like for example a bank's site, different users put their own passwords and for example different amount of money to be transferred somewhere).
how does the webpage work and know not to mix the different values entered into the same forms/places of code?

are sessions responsible for that? I read that they mostly track the time spent on a page, so I'm not sure about it

and I could not form the question properly enough to get google the answers I'm looking for

to be more specific, I assume that somewhere in such bank's site's code, there is a variable named "amount_to_be_transferred"
it can be assigned to different numbers from different users at the same second, so how does it know to store different values using the same code?

[haughty isle]

The first time you land on a website it gives you a random session token

And your browser will send that token with every request. It's often called a session cookie

Each time a web server recieves a request it can look up the token in a database and associate data with it, eg the currently logged in user

The same pieces of code can have different state because of the call stack. Each Python thread/coroutine has it's own call stack and local variables are stored there. Often a single request is associated with a single call stack

[jaunty depot]

I see
so those cookies are allocated to each user and are they constant? meaning, what if the same user uses different computer? how would the website know to allocate the data he is entering to his account?

[serene prawn]

You would have to authenticate from that second device

[jaunty depot]

okay so with every new user, there is a unique ID associated with that user, right? such key is stored in a database in one row with said user's other data, correct?

[indigo kettle]

yes

you can log in from different devices as the same user but in general those will be different "sessions"

[jaunty depot]

so sessions are responsible for that, that User A doesn't see User B's saved data on his account and vice-versa?

[indigo kettle]

yes, the session cookie is sent between the browser and the web application and the web application knows what user is associated with that session

even non-authenticated users can have their own sessions as anonymous users

[jaunty depot]

huh, alrighty
I'm thinking of building my own simple website to get a grip of all those aspects

thank you all for spending your time answering me 🙂

[indigo kettle]

that will probably be the best way to start to understand how it all works together

good luck!

i dont really know whay it occured

[indigo kettle]

to assign values in a dictionary you use hard brackets []

[serene prawn]

You cannot assign values to function calls, it says that

[steady canyon]

like os.environ["smth"] = "true"?

[indigo kettle]

are you trying to assign a value inside the environ dictionary?

then yes

hi, we working with framework and i don't understand it a lot . we have created a website, i used html, css and javascript. she asked us to find framework and libraries in our website. how to do that?

[frigid egret]

Any django 101 article. They might differ a bit but usually describe the basics quite well, there's nothing too complicated. Start with a venv, then installing dependencies, then running the instance. Once you understand that process, you can move on to creating stuff.

[frigid egret]

Which command are you using, runserver? How does your file structure look?

#web-development message

[inland oak]

I don't see in your code interactions with database

[strange charm]

yes, that what i'm doing

but i'm getting error

[inland oak]

serializer = GeneralFeedbackSerializer(data=request.data)

have you tried reading the error

[strange charm]

yes

[inland oak]

data= keyword is missing

[serene prawn]

Also i think it's better to use serializers.is_valid(raise_exception=True)

[inland oak]

I was heavily missing validators for sure

[serene prawn]

Also don't use dict.get 😅

[inland oak]

remembered how much of code i wrote in the place of missing validators

😊

I should read about all drf features

[serene prawn]

You didn't know about serializers? 🤨

[inland oak]

I did not know they could be used without database

[strange charm]

Then what to use?

[serene prawn]

They could:

class BookCreateSerializer(serializers.Serializer):
    title = serializers.CharField(max_length=60)


class BookSerializer(BookCreateSerializer):
    created_at = serializers.DateTimeField()

class BookCreateView(APIView):
    @swagger_auto_schema(
        request_body=BookCreateSerializer,
        responses={
            status.HTTP_201_CREATED: BookSerializer,
        }
    )
    def post(self, request: Request):
        serializer_in = BookCreateSerializer(data=request.data)
        serializer_in.is_valid(raise_exception=True)

        book = Book.objects.create(**serializer_in.data)
        serializer_out = BookSerializer(instance=book)
        return Response(serializer_out.data, 201)

You don't have to use inheritance here but in this case it's convenient

[inland oak]

#web-development message
I know, we discussed it already

[serene prawn]

use [] or pass your data via **

[serene prawn]

Yep, i remember, i just sent a code example 😃

[strange charm]

@serene prawn i'm new in django

can you share one example?

[serene prawn]

It's a python thing, it's not related to django
dict.get would return None if key is not present in a dictionary it's better to use [] where possible

[quaint topaz]

Is django used for backend ?

[serene prawn]

Yep

[inland oak]

class CommentSerializer(serializers.Serializer):
    content = serializers.CharField(max_length=200)
    page = serializers.IntegerField(min_value=1, default=1)

def test_using_valudator_with_extra_data():
    serializer = CommentSerializer(data={"content": "data", "123": "456"})
    serializer.is_valid(raise_exception=True)

validator is not giving error for "123", can it?

[serene prawn]

🤔 I think it will ignore extra data, but i'm not really sure

[inland oak]

it ignores at the moment

I wonder if it can enforce being not ignoring

[serene prawn]

There's a bug btw, you SHOULD use serializer.validated_data

good resources for react?

[indigo kettle]

there is a validate method on the serializer class you could override. Perhaps you could check that only the fields inside of the serializers.fields show up in the posted data

I have a question regarding web development with Python. So currently I have a website where I upload a file. When the upload is finished, I run a command line program on the server with the uploaded file as input. Afterwards I echo the path to the processed file. I did that with PHP about 6 years ago and it was fine. Now I wanted to update some parts of the website and extend it and noticed that after 6 years of not touching PHP, I might as well go and re-do it in Python. So based on my short description, how hard is it to do with e.g. Flask?

[inland oak]

it should be equally easy

[quasi summit]

I dug around a little and it definitely seems doable

Might be something for the weekend... :D

[inland oak]

I must warn you though about unsafety of running linux shell commands from user input data, it just asks for injections to hack the server

[quasi summit]

I'm really not sure how else to do it. You have to go through two screens where you have to enter your password being able to upload anything at all. With PHP I was able to work with prepared statements as well and I definitely check the input. Definitely not hardened against everything though.

[inland oak]

how about renaming in python all incoming files into same or random name

then you would have been using linux command for the file

that has certainly safe name

[quasi summit]

That's what I do with PHP at the moment

[inland oak]

for example renaming files to

import secrets
secrets.token_hex(16)

that's just random generator

[quasi summit]

The files are renamed in some "unique" ID

👍

hello, how do you do this in flask?
class="nav-item {% if 'ui-forms' in segment %} active {% endif %}"
segment global does not exist in flask i think. I just want the active to appear if the url segment has ui-forms.

[haughty isle]

you might want to start with the django tutorial first then have a look at the F12 developer tools network view and see what's going on. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/intro/tutorial01/

then once you have that down fully you can check your understanding by making an asgi app from scratch that manages sessions and state

if you start with a tool that does it all for you already you'll be able to more clearly see the target you're aiming for

Hello folks,
I'm currently trying to make a flask app, and i've structured it using blueprint, but i can't hit my end points.

hi, can i get some help about running a web server whit pyton?

i have this code that run a web server:```py
from http.server import HTTPServer, BaseHTTPRequestHandler

class CustomHandler(BaseHTTPRequestHandler):

def do_GET(self):
    self.send_response(200)
    self.send_header('content-type','text/html')
    self.end_headers()
    h = open("index.html","r")
    self.wfile.write(h.read().encode())

if name == 'main':

PRT = 8000
srv = HTTPServer(('',PRT), CustomHandler)
print('Server started on port %s' %PRT)
srv.serve_forever()```it run the index.html

but the page has no javascript or css

and whit the inspector this code is basically sending only index.html as any request

[golden bone]

What's the question? Are you getting an error message?

[native tide]

the web page has no css or javascript

and i think is because self.wfile.write(h.read().encode()) only give index.html

idk, i just want to run a test server to debug a web page.

@golden bone

[golden bone]

Your index page has CSS and JavaScript, it's just not displaying correctly when you serve it with Flask?

[native tide]

Flask?

[golden bone]

Ah, nevermind. I'm not familiar with http.server

Does it even support JavaScript?

[native tide]

ok, i'll try flask.

[golden bone]

If all you want is a webserver use a webserver. Nginx or Apache whatever

[native tide]

i made a web server but i still get these errors

using flask this time

here: ```py
from flask import Flask, render_template

app = Flask(name)

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

if name == "main":
app.run(debug=True)```

Nginx and Apache can run whit pyton? i want to use pyton because i don't have enough time to set up a new software.

[jaunty magnet]

what is WGSI file in django? does that stand for something?

[surreal thicket]

https://www.fullstackpython.com/wsgi-servers.html

actually this doc isn't that useful

wsgi is an interface that lets web servers like apache and nginx interact efficiently with a python application

so the wsgi file in a django application is the module that the wsgi server uses to interact with your django application

[surreal thicket]

yes, you can use them as a "reverse proxy"

but you still need to set them up and configure them

i strongly recommend learning how to use nginx or apache

[jaunty magnet]

@surreal thicket thank you this is very helpful

[inland oak]

static files should be in folder static

template file html should be in folder templates in flask

Flask will serve static files only as development server

for production ready solution u would still need to learn something like apache/nginx, while launching python web servers with things like gunicorn

[native tide]

didn't work

here my setup

this in the console:

[inland oak]

change url addresses, add to them /static in the beginning

[native tide]

wdym?

wait

[inland oak]

change html template

change url addresses inside

[native tide]

like this?

[inland oak]

no

add / in addition in the begiining

/static/styles/style.css

@golden bone I will take a look, thank you

[golden bone]

Not sure that's 100% relevant but hope it helps :)

[native tide]

@inland oak still don't work

this is the python: ```py
from flask import Flask, render_template, send_from_directory

app = Flask(name, static_url_path='/static')

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

@app.route('/static/path:path')
def send_js(path):
return send_from_directory('js', path)

if name == "main":
app.run(debug=True)```

this is the html: html <script type="text/javascript" src="/static/script.js" defer></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/static/version_read.js" defer></script>

ok, wait. i found a typo and now it works

thank you!

[inner kestrel]

@golden bone it helps in telling me that its not possible to pass preferences to chrome headless so I can stop playing around with that now so thank you for that, but the type of pages I am trying to save to PDF are converted to a different view when the print dialog box opens up and are quite different looking than standard view in the browser

i guess because its a web app made in angular

[burnt forge]

Hi, I have a question. I am trying to upload a file from the client end (PDF, TXT, CSV, Excel), to the server, in Flask. And, after hitting the API, if I open the Developer Tools, on my browser, and go to the Network Tab, to monitor the API, I can view the content of the file I have uploaded in the API Request Body. And as a design and security requirement, I do not want that to happen. Ideally, I would like to have the API Request Body show up as empty.
How can I achieve this?

[inland oak]

How about some encryption/decryption

[burnt forge]

Won't that be an issue, as the file size can be greater than >1GB, and encrypting on the front end, of such a large file, even if it is being processed in chunks, might be too much for JS?

[inland oak]

Find some encrypting algorithm that has public and private keys
And allows anyone to encrypt that has public part
And let your server have private key that allows decryption

[inland oak]

Yes it will be an issue

But sending 1gb file will be always an issue

Why would u wish sending such big file

[burnt forge]

Yes, it will. But the best way would be to break the file into chunks, and do what something like Microsoft does, which is creation of an upload session and reassembly of the chunked files. But the problem is the encryption algorithm itself, as from my experience, JS is not great at heavy encryption because of it's single threaded nature.

[inland oak]

Highly likely there is limit 5 megobytes

At least it is the limit of local storage

[burnt forge]

Taken it up more as a challenge. Want to build an ETL system that allows for massive files (i.e. >1GB)

[inland oak]

Js is quite fast. I would worry about memory limits first

Once it reaches certain point, js can become super slow

[burnt forge]

Yes

[burnt forge]

The memory issue is something I have found resources on. But the problem is that I cannot actually find anything on Google for my API security requirement. Maybe I am searching for the wrong thing.

[inland oak]

Perhaps u will rely on simple TLS

Everything is already encrypted by SSL certificates / HTTPS connection

Just enable it

And make sure your web server supports last existing secure algorithms, enable enforcing only of secure algorithms if u wish

[burnt forge]

Okay

Thank you!

Hello. I've never worked in a web develepment project before. Actually i want to creat a web formulary with python. I have a server and a MySQL model. Does someone recomend me any course to get this into web as soon a possible?

[strange charm]

Any nginx expert?

[red roost]

what is nginx?

[surreal thicket]

don't "ask to ask". state your question, and if someone knows the answer they will answer

[strange charm]

ok

[surreal thicket]

it is an http server that is especially good at acting as a "reverse proxy", meaning that it forwards http requests to other applications. a common setup is to use nginx + gunicorn to run python web applications

[strange charm]

i want to redirect https://www.example.com to https://example.com

yes, i want to deploy django project

[surreal thicket]

i think usually this is done at the DNS level. but you can do it in nginx by returning 301 or 302:

server {
    server_name www.example.com;
    return 302 $scheme://example.com$request_uri;
}

[strange charm]

With dns should I use A record?

[surreal thicket]

sure, you can have an A record at both @ and www pointing to the same IP. another solution is to set an A record on @, and set a CNAME record on www that points to the non-www version. i assume the latter is better for SEO, but i am not sure

[strange charm]

Ok, I'll check that

Thanks

[surreal thicket]

i assume you are using gunicorn?

[quasi notch]

hi guys

someone here?

[frozen girder]

maybe

[cinder sable]

if anyone here can help me with web scrapping that would be amazing just shoot me a dm and a friend req

[inland oak]

theroretically it is usually solved at DNS level of records
CNAME record from www to @ (or example.com) should do the trick

[native tide]

can i use flask and django together ?

[inland oak]

sure. But it does not make sense at all.

so I would say no

but

it does make sense actually if they are two different microserviced applications

but still does not make sense in terms of increased cost of maintanance to support code for two frameworks

[native tide]

ohh i see

thanks

is making a website with python good or i should use html or css

?

[inland oak]

If u intend to make visual part of web site, then here is the list of what you can do from the worst to the best options:

• Plain html/CSS(worst)
• Using backend framework (like flask or Django)
• Using Frontend framework(like react / angular / vue.js) (best for visual part)

Optional augmentations:

• U can improve plain html and backend Frameworks with jQuery
• u can improve backend framework with attaching Frontend framework (better than jQuery usage, but worse in my opinion than using frontend separately)
• u can improve all three choices with attaching SCSS

[native tide]

ohh thanks

i will look into this

[native tide]

when i try to find scss it shows me sass is it the same thing ?

[inland oak]

Sort of yes

By default SASS tools often work as SCSS tools

[native tide]

i cannot find SCSS so should i go with SASS

but i guess using frontend framework will be better for website

sigh

if i use react or something similar would i need to learn js first ?

[inland oak]

speaking from my experience, i learned Vue.js after just reading HTML and CSS Head First and Javascript Head First book

my initial knowledge about javascript was close to zero, but it was not an issue to get into the flow

Javscript knowledge is requried and it needs to be learned, but it should be possible to learn JS in the process

[inland oak]

For visual part of web site, yes. Frontend Framework + SCSS/SASS is the best 😉

backend frameworks main purpose to do server side jobs..

people often resort to scheme...

using Frontend for visual + Backend as REST API that returns/accepts JSON inputs/outputs for server side tasks if they exist

[stark tartan]

What category websockets come front-end or backend

[inland oak]

both. Websockets are type of connection between frontend and backend

[stark tartan]

Okay sir

Can I connect websocket in android or ios App for notifications

@inland oak

[inland oak]

yes it should be possible. your Android/IoS app is sort of frontend app in this case

[stark tartan]

And I have a dbout why django Oauth kit is used with django JWT in django rest is it compulsory to used both in production @inland oak

[frigid egret]

Didn't quite get the question but authentication can be achieved in multiple ways, usually you have to choose one and don't mix it with others.

[stark tartan]

I think django Oauth kit is used with jwt

Is it correct

[frigid egret]

Hm, I have to check but afaik Oauth and JWT are two different methods

https://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/authentication/#django-rest-framework-oauth
Docs confirm those are different, not related methods.

And again, generally you'd use either one of them, unless it's some massive corporate service, but even then it's best to avoid such practice since it is over-engineering.

[candid mural]

is there a way to attach a header to uvicorn that it accepts CORS-requests?

[stark tartan]

But the thing is that if someone stole our jwt token how can we protect it in frontend or Ani App .

[native tide]

you don't want to manually specify that header

for each endpoint in your app right

[candid mural]

right now, i just get an error saying my browser cant communicate with my endpoint sicne they have different addresses. and i dont like the hack of proxying stuff and it also makes the architecture more complicated. I would appreciate any solution to this problem. The only one i could think of was to just attach the header and allow cors. What do u have in mind?

[stark tartan]

which packages or how we can use for image thumbnail in DJANGO REST FREAMEWORK

[frank shoal]

You mean the favicon.ico?

[frank shoal]

React is a reactive frontend framework for building dynamic webpages. Reactive means it reacts to changes like the url, mouse clicks, time, local storage, etc

[high relic]

Hi all, I am looking to make a website for a family member who recently started a hotel if anyone can guide me or has information please get back to me thanks.

[wheat verge]

thanks

[frank shoal]

similar frameworks include vue and angular

I like vue because its components are valid html

i.e. no special parsing of <x y={{z}}/>

instead you get <X :y="z" />

:y is a shortcut for v-bind:y

there's also @x= => v-on:x=, #z= => v-slot:z=

[tardy meteor]

So I am kind of confused on what is going on here, I have a <href> download link to download a File off of my server but instead of download it, it just translets the page into a non CSS mode.

<a href="/mnt/disk1/appdata/nginx/www/BetaProjects/KivyCentered.zip" style="color:#11e763;">Source File</a>

[inland oak]

I am pretty sure u have a wrong path/href

U a supposed to write a filepath starting from root of website

Not a root of filesystem

/mnt/disk1/appdata/nginx/www/BetaProjects
Your root of website is highly likely this

If this what u wrote in nginx config

[tardy meteor]

I am using default nginx config, I didn't want to break anything.

You could use javascript on the backend since you already have knowledge of it, but I would recommend Python/Django

Yeh if you're targeting web js is only way to get put

(context djanog)
this is the chess model i currently have

class Game(models.Model):
    ONGOING = "O"
    ABANDONED = "A"
    COMPLETED = "C"

    STATUS_CHOICES = (
        (ONGOING, "ongoing"),
        (ABANDONED, "abandoned"),
        (COMPLETED, "completed"),
    )

    white = models.ForeignKey(
        settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL,
        related_name="games_as_white",
        on_delete=models.CASCADE,
    )
    black = models.ForeignKey(
        settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL,
        related_name="games_as_black",
        on_delete=models.CASCADE,
    )
    fen = models.CharField(
        max_length=90,
        default="rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/8/8/PPPPPPPP/RNBQKBNR w KQkq - 0 1",
    )
    status = models.CharField(max_length=1, choices=STATUS_CHOICES, default=ONGOING)
    created = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)

any suggestion on status field? I now implementing win/lose and draw and I think i think the abandoned and completed status represent the same thing and i am a little confused rn

also is it recommended to define the ONGOING, ABANDONED ... STATUS_CHOICES inside or outside the class?

[native tide]

once again do you want to manually "attach the header" under ever single function in your app

or do you want some kind of shortcut, like set a setting, and it will be applied to all the functions

[paper moon]

So my backend is implemented all in Python and I want my JS code to show that. How can I "pass" the data from the backend to the frontend? What's the way used for this thing? Ping me if you know

[inland oak]

what means JS code to show that ?

[paper moon]

So my Python code is processing some data with tensorflow and returning some JSON dicts. I want the JS to process them and show those in a beautiful way (which is gonna be coded, ofc)

[inland oak]

simpliest way to transfer data from backend to frontend: is making REST API end points in backend that accept requests in GET/POST/and e.t.c. JSON format
and frontend would make with something like Axois fetch request to them

[paper moon]

And how will I prevent the outside people from accessing the API?

[inland oak]

can't resist writing meme to it

[paper moon]

🤣 tf

[inland oak]

in Backend application you can firstly setup which domains origins are allowed to make requests to your API

[paper moon]

Okay....?

[inland oak]

secondly, you can make some sort Authentification procedures

but

no matter what you do your web site is still going to be web scrapped

[paper moon]

Ah so I will have to use some authentication process

Yea

[inland oak]

and your frontend would be still used to access backend without limits

to protect it further you need something like Cloudflare protection with captchas 😉

installed to your web site

[paper moon]

Ah well cloudflare things are not really related to code

those are external stuff

[inland oak]

if you backend will be allowed to have access only to authentificated users

then make authentificating process

and the end points for your special stuff allowed only for authentificated users

[paper moon]

so ig I can ignore those since we are still on the development phase

[inland oak]

usually people use JWT auth system in microservice architecture where front and back splitted

[paper moon]

Oh

[inland oak]

it scales well when you have a lot of backend microservices

JWT allows to authentificate user once in auth backend API

and having access transmitted to other backend APIs without repeated requests to auth API

[paper moon]

Well so what is your preference to make an API? Something like flask or...

[inland oak]

i prefer Django, Django Rest Framework modification is quite having everything ready for making REST API

I wish to try FastAPI, it is cool too

[paper moon]

Oh thought so

FastAPI is popular nowadays

[inland oak]

in the end of the day if nothing helps

it is possible to setup Throtting limits

how much requests are allowed from specific IP in a specific time period for specific type of request

Django Rest Framework has this feature as one of its modules already

[paper moon]

I am just a newbie to web dev, since I prefer making standalone apps more FYI

[inland oak]

standalone apps? u mean Monolith apps? 😉

[paper moon]

I meant non website stuff. Using modules like Kivy and stuff

[inland oak]

oh. so you were desktop and/or mobile dev

[paper moon]

Ah yea. My bad, my braincells are only half working rn

[inland oak]

i knew i wish being web dev so fully dived into it

still feeling myself as newbie though

but newbie that can do small scaled projects, probably

[paper moon]

Haha well I know only the basic API projects and stuff only

I am that kind of person who does something like

@app.route("/")
def home():
    return jsonify({"message": "Hi"})

for every project/API

[inland oak]

ping
pong!

[frank shoal]

Vscode update server responds with 👋

[paper moon]

???

[paper moon]

Hahaha

Hey BTW Darkwind, do u have any frameworks in mind, for JS, to make my work easier? (Keeping in mind that I am a complete newbie, even in JS)

[frank shoal]

You could use vue

[inland oak]

Vue.js

[serene prawn]

I don't think you can go wrong with any of the popular 3

[inland oak]

I learned it within a matter of weeks / one month from complete zero

Vue.js is recommended as the most beginner friendly 😉

at least learned to level to do my task

[paper moon]

Well I was thinking of using/learning React before, but thought to first make myself comfortable with Vanilla JS, then diving into something like this, that's is why just asking

[frank shoal]

Once you finish the frontend, I recommend nginx unit to join it with the backend

[inland oak]

React could do the trick as well.

[serene prawn]

If you're familiar with programming in general learning a language when learning a framework would be fine imo

perhaps he has an infrastructure engineer in his team

then it is not his issue

[paper moon]

Oh thanks for that!

[frank shoal]

On my team, I am that guy

[inland oak]

startup, i am all guys

[frank shoal]

My team's company has 10000 employees

The only thing I don't manage is the kuberneties infrastructure

[inland oak]

I already do that too

as a matter of fact refactorizing my homelab to it as well at the moment 😉

[paper moon]

It is just a side project with a friend of mine

(My net went, sorry)

[stark tartan]

What do you mean by refactoring code

[inland oak]

refactoring code means
removing mistakes or improving code quality.
there are multiple types of bad code smells, if to fix exactly bad code, read Clean Code by Martin, but that's actually topic for multiple books
but in my situation i am improving code by migrating it to better technology.

my old pet projects were running in docker compose in multiple servers

I migrate all my pet projects into single kubernetes server

that can utilize distribution of resources efficiently even within single server

which will save me money

+kubernetes allows me easily to setup monitoring/logging system to all of my pet projects at once

i'll have at last Prometeheus / Loki / Grafana / AlertManager and e.t.c. array of systems to track my apps

kubernetes alone introduces a lot of services, like its internal DNS service, its configuration management system, self healing properties

that will improve my infrastructure code by magnitude

hmm... also I gathered a bit of data while maintaing pet projects

so I know where they require from me operational manual actions

I am automating small stuff I did before that

part of refactorization too

[stark tartan]

That is way away from my head😩 😅 😅

WHAT library will be good for playing js online?

[native tide]

how would i build a ticket system that users can create a ticket and have a conversion with a admin? (django)

[golden bone]

Playing js online? If you mean loading js as if in a browser, Selenium

[drifting radish]

okey

[native tide]

does anyone know of a good way on storing a conversation via a ticket in django? e.g user opens support ticket and can reply/chat with the admin
im just struggling to think of a good and secure model to make something like this
i would have to make a new row for each message right?

[golden bone]

I see loads of tutorials online for doing chat in Django. I haven't tried it but definitely check some of those out if you haven't

[tepid lark]

Frankly, the data modeling is the easy part.

You can store ticket id, user id, timestamp, and message content in your conversation model

if you want to have multiple conservations on a ticket maybe create a convo and message model

but for support specifically, I assume you'd want admins to be able to see other admins conversations

Hi guys, im trying to import my main.py methods to my app.py
its giving me a ImportError when i run the flask app

im just doing a py from main import *

[ocean slate]

hello

[ocean slate]

do u know flask?

i need help in flask

urgent

please

What Not To Ask
Q: Is anyone here good at Flask / Pygame / PyCharm?
There are two problems with this question:

This kind of question does not manage to pique anyone's interest, so you're less likely to get an answer overall. On the other hand, a question like "Is it possible to get PyCharm to automatically compile SCSS into CSS files" is much more likely to be interesting to someone. Sometimes, the best answers come from someone who does not already know the answer, but who finds the question interesting enough to go search for the answer on your behalf.
When you qualify your question by first asking if someone is good at something, you are filtering out potential answerers. Not only are people bad at judging their own skill at something, but the truth is that even someone who has zero experience with the framework you're having trouble with might still be of excellent help to you.
So instead of asking if someone is good at something, simply ask your question right away.

darkwind brother

do u know flask/

?

[inland oak]

#web-development message

[ocean slate]

u know or not

I want to show posts on home page in flask

but here the home page is admin panel so the posts which users can see should be their own posts rather then seeing every user's posts

[inland oak]

make the page rendering the posts only for the user currently mentioned in Query Params (url) of the web site (https://yourwebsite.com/user_Identification)
make the necessary SQL query for the chosen user, to get only his posts
feel free to authenticate users and redirecting them to their home page

a matter of simple SQL query
instead of quering
SELECT ALL POSTS
change to
SELECT ALL POSTS
WHERE USER_ID=USER.ID
or its equivalent in ORM language

[inland oak]

and regarding your questions to DM. You are again asking questions in a wrong way.
highly recommending to read carefully https://www.pythondiscord.com/pages/guides/pydis-guides/asking-good-questions/
otherwise you would have a trouble to get help from anyone

No one really wishes to help person who just calls for pity, without making even an attempt to seek for answers

usually such person is just ignored and blocked away and never answered why

[ocean slate]

brother actually u dont want to help

[summer beacon]

What’s your file structure like?

[ocean slate]

I want to show post on home page which were posted by users

here the home page is admin panel
and rather than showing each and every posts i just want to show the post of the user which he has posted on his admin panel page

[ocean slate]

In flask

[golden bone]

Darkwind just told you exactly how to do this right before you accused them of not wanting to help. If you don't understand the solution maybe you can share a link to the code

[barren lava]

Hi, Faraz

How are you?

I would like to discuss about your spec

Could you dm me right now?

I am Python developer, have rich experiences with Flask and Fast API and Django Framework.

[barren lava]

Hello, everybody

How is your weekend?

[south arch]

Can someone help me with this?
I get "no module named 'config'" when I try to add a new row in admin zone

the error is caused by an ImageField

that works in local but not in production

[barren lava]

Hi, Enrico
you need to add module to your app/setting.py

[south arch]

do I need to put
"import config" into settings.py?

[barren lava]

no

[south arch]

what then?

[barren lava]

you can find INSTALLED_APPS in your setting.py

[south arch]

yeah

inside there there's my configuration app of my app

the line before the last one

[barren lava]

you have to add 'config'

[south arch]

also my apps.py is configured as well

[barren lava]

you need to add 'website'

[south arch]

I will try

i thought that i do not need to put "website" if I have already put "website.apps.WebsiteConfig"

I will give a try

btw thank you for your time, luckystar

the thing that scares me, is that the problem is caused by a field of a module

[south arch]

yeah yeah, I am uploading to try if it works

[south arch]

it takes some minutes (I am using app engine)

[barren lava]

no problem

[south arch]

what do you think about that?*

if I do not use that field (in views.py, in a template etc...) the website works fine

but I do have to use that field, is one of the most important

now I just got 502 bad gateway

from the logs

as i thought

i do have to remove website.apps.websiteconfig

[barren lava]

What framework do you use?

[south arch]

it's django

google cloud app engine standard enviroment as host

[barren lava]

please change your app name "website" => "others" and try again

and you need to add name to setting.py/installed_app config

[south arch]

why? I can't change my app name

[south arch]

which I did

[south arch]

just like this

I still get No module named 'config'

[barren lava]

let me check

[south arch]

settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'django.contrib.postgres',
    #'website.apps.WebsiteConfig',
    'corsheaders',
    'website'

] 

[barren lava]

how is it working?

[south arch]

it's not working 😂

[south arch]

.

[barren lava]

how did you make website app in django framework?

Did you use python command?

[south arch]

yes, of course

I am not new with Django

I am new with Google Cloud

I think the error is caused by the storage

[barren lava]

This is not Google Cloud problem,

Django problem

[south arch]

it would make sense, because the error appears only if I use the "ImageField", that has access to Google Cloud Storage

[barren lava]

okay, good

[thick sinew]

Hey guys, want to separate my django project into dev and production branches. I am using docker-compose and github actions. How to organise it better? I know that using sqlite in dev and postgres in prod is a common practice but what do I do with docker and what stuff is better to be done in this case? I am also planning to add gunicorn + nginx later

[steel pier]

so i have a textbox and i want to make sure that when the user presses enter, the first characters arent spaces. how do i do that (javascript)

[still galleon]

on what language should i code a chat application?

[unique shore]

depends

You can use JS, C#/XAML, Python, etc

[native tide]

Try to use the same database in both dev and prod. You can end up with weird edge cases if they are different. Not as familiar on the docker side, but should be able to build the branch and tag the build dev or prod. You can use gunicorn and nginx in dev as well and with docker-compose it might even be easier than the django dev server.

[barren lava]

Hi, everybody

I am looking for a good job in python and django and flask and fast api.

[slate narwhal]

Anyone have experience with HTML/CSS?

For some reason my CSS file won't connect to my HTML file

[barren lava]

your path is right?

to import CSS file in your HTML

[slate narwhal]

Yeh it is, in the head of my HTML I have

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/style.css" />

Because style.css is in a css folder

[barren lava]

Can you click href with Ctrl + Lmouse?

[slate narwhal]

Yep, it takes me to my stylesheet

[barren lava]

I mean it is not imported right now.

you did import style css to your last position?

or the problem is in your style css file I think

[slate narwhal]

Yeh that's what I'm thinking as well

[barren lava]

Can I check your css and html file?

[slate narwhal]

Yeh sure

[barren lava]

please send me

[slate narwhal]

Give me just one moment please 🙂

[barren lava]

ok

[native tide]

that path is wrong. it starts with a forward slash which will make it relative to the root of the server not the currrent directory

you want this... href="css/style.css"

FYI. I don't think that's a html/css thing either. I think that's just how paths work on computers.

[blissful wave]

Can i ask PHP questions here?

hello everyone

[night tapir]

Hey guys, I have an idea for a business that would require a high end website, mobile app, and large scale databases. I currently only know a bit of python. where would I start with a large project like this? im mainly asking if i should build the server first or the website/app. and after I get that answer where do I start with that subject.
Thanks!

[verbal pagoda]

Try ./css/style.css
