[warm aurora]

Just refresh the page normally?

[frank shoal]

yes

[warm aurora]

Oh damn

[frank shoal]

click on one of the not found links.

[warm aurora]

The images r whats not found

[frank shoal]

Yes, click on one. It should show a pane containing the full url

[warm aurora]

When i click it it just highhlights the red part above

[frank shoal]

example:

[warm aurora]

Is it possible to get into a voice channel??

I can share screen

[frank shoal]

I'm technically at work.

Screenshots work fine

[warm aurora]

Inothing is happening when i click

Should i send a video of what it does?

[frank shoal]

In my screenshot, I clicked DASH_480.mp4, which brought up the pane to the right.

Preview was selected by default, but I clicked over to Headers

[frank shoal]

Now click headers.

[warm aurora]

O

Ok

[frank shoal]

What's the request url?

[frank shoal]

And please take screenshots. Stop using your phone.

[warm aurora]

Ok

So what do i do

[frank shoal]

Win+Shift+S

then drag a square around the part of the screen you want to capture.

[warm aurora]

Oh i know how to screenshot

Im saying what should i do next

Or u want a better screenshot forst

[frank shoal]

post your last image as a screenshot, because I can't read it.

[frank shoal]

And what's your directory structure?

the website for anyone looking: http://amusaitif.infprojects.fhsu.edu/Pacific Trails Resort website/ch5pacific/

[warm aurora]

What do u mean

U want the code?

[frank shoal]

no.

[tight pasture]

??

[frank shoal]

Folder structure.

[frank shoal]

idk.

Do you control the server or is it a school managed thing?

[warm aurora]

I control it

[frank shoal]

restart it?

[warm aurora]

I didnt link anything tho

Like im sure its just a path thing

[frank shoal]

I got the url from your screenshot

[warm aurora]

Ya ik

Im saying link as in in the code

[frank shoal]

no css?

<link href="pacific.css" rel="stylesheet">

[warm aurora]

Like that code was from google

[frank shoal]

you've got that.

What's in your images folder?

[frank shoal]

can you turn on file extensions? Should be in the view tab

[frank shoal]

Maybe upload to the server and restart it?

the issue isn't in your project.

probably

[tight pasture]

did u see my code?

[frank shoal]

Yes.

The images just aren't there.

[warm aurora]

Can i send u the zipped file??

[lavish prism]

Hey @tight pasture!

It looks like you tried to attach file type(s) that we do not allow (.zip). We currently allow the following file types: .gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .mov, .mp4, .mpg, .png, .mp3, .wav, .ogg, .webm, .webp, .flac, .m4a, .csv, .json.

Feel free to ask in #community-meta if you think this is a mistake.

[frank shoal]

upload the zip somewhere

not here

[tight pasture]

where can isend it?

[frank shoal]

google drive?

[tight pasture]

can i email it to u

[warm aurora]

???

[tight pasture]

https://drive.google.com/open?id=180O59YJ6K649ZubSuPI9l4zoiKySPJjX

did this work?

[warm aurora]

@frank shoal

[frank shoal]

Works when I open it as a file://

[tight pasture]

ya but thats not my file

i have to download them and upload to cpanel

[frank shoal]

So you need to upload your images.

[tight pasture]

so when i download and unzip them do you thing the path changes

[frank shoal]

I found your image. http://amusaitif.infprojects.fhsu.edu/Pacific Trails Resort website/ch5pacific/coast.jpg

it's not in the images folder

[tight pasture]

so how do i add them

[frank shoal]

I've never used cpanel.

[frank shoal]

Looks like you should upload your zip, then extract it using cpanel

[tight pasture]

extract it in cpanel?

[frank shoal]

yes

https://www.namehero.com/startup/how-to-upload-your-website-in-cpanel-part-i-files-and-folders/

[warm aurora]

WTFFFFFFFFFFFF

That workeddddd

[lavish prism]

:incoming_envelope: :ok_hand: applied mute to @warm aurora until <t:1645740741:f> (9 minutes and 59 seconds) (reason: discord_emojis rule: sent 51 emojis in 10s).

[normal pebble]

!unmute 407310346257170433

[lavish prism]

:incoming_envelope: :ok_hand: pardoned infraction mute for @warm aurora.

[normal pebble]

lol, careful

[frank shoal]

did he start spamming a bunch of emojis?

[frank shoal]

ah. that'll do it.

[warm aurora]

Hahahaaha

😂

I was just so happy

No one would helpp mee or figure out the problemm

[outer fractal]

https://home.goooooogle.repl.co/ how would i check the redirect requests of a flask application?

[native tide]

?

[native tide]

well its simple

i just learned flask today after someone recommended it here

now i consider myself pretty good at flask

i built a full api with it so

what i would do is check the request

get request i think

then log it to a text file or webhook

or smt

[native tide]

sorry, but you don't 'get good at flask' in a day

Question:

Looking to build a website that has a login/registration that brings the user to a dashboard.
The back-end is built with Django and Django Rest API

I know that Django already has awesome built-in admin, user and registration -- but I know that I could also built it with React.

Could someone help me decide what the best route would be for me?

Is another option to built it out in the back-end with Django, and then use React to improve the UI across the dashboard + company website template?

UI will be very important to the overall main website and dashboard.

[golden bone]

Yes, backend with Django and front end with React seems like the natural choice, given that it sounds like you need something nicer then you can do without React

[native tide]

the first part of the sentence doesn't seem to go with the second part :) ?

[golden bone]

Made a small edit, maybe that's more clear now?

[native tide]

sorry, no. you say django for backend and react for frontend is a natural choice. but next, you propose they don't need react for something nicer. how come?

and if not react, what would you propose instead?

[native tide]

It's been a long time since I've worked with django. from what I remember, the django dashboard can take you far, but only so far. you can customize it and get pretty far with it, but after a point, you will have to fight against django

[golden bone]

My point was that you only need something like React if you need a fancy frontend. Otherwise Django is enough

[native tide]

yeah, I agree

[fresh cape]

Perl for life

[native tide]

who even are you

i dont remember talking to you 🤣

[bold lichen]

Has anybody here used github codespaces for web development?

[mint spear]

Hi everyone. I have a general question of python.
just like we import specific module/package of a package/lib (sorry differences are not that clear, anyways) because if we import whole lib and only be using a specific module, it's not worth it, it will only take memory space and increase execution time. Similarly, in exception handling, let's say I corrupted my try block with intentional NameError but I except error-exceptional handling from Exception class on a whole and not just simply NameError, is the former one slower than later or there is no observable execution time delay?
I want to learn how things work internally, as most tutorials just tell us what python has to offer (abstracted high level syntax and it's working). I have learnt C and I still practice some C small C programs, I'm just a student never don't any real world project but I try my best will cooperate if you tell something complex.

[wraith osprey]

hey guys

I want to be able to use extensions from the google console

[golden bone]

Follow this carefully. If you're still stuck share your repo and details of the problem. https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/using-github-to-host-a-free-static-website/

[native tide]

Any cPanel geeks here.

Need a bit of help.

I'm hosting with namecheap and they have an exclusive hosting service for for Python Apps, can I start/stop my application remotely as a pose to going to my actual dashboard.

My idea is that if my local server stops responding or is turned to maintenance mode, my server running cPanel will kick in.

Hii

how to change discord username use request

i try find this info 1day in google

but nothing

i trying

import requests

payload = {
    'username:' "UserSwithed"
}

header = {
    'authorization': 'Token'
}
r = requests.post(f"https://discord.com/api/v9/users/@me", # cntrl, shift, i 
                data=payload, headers=header)

[austere acorn]

where is token ?

headers = {
  'Authorization': f'Token {token}'
}

[native tide]

'authorization': 'Token' Token is token xD

Token = token

[trim spire]

Using sockets, how can I get the position to a users cursor?

[atomic horizon]

Thank you, from tutorials it looks like to integrate and use react as the registration, it also suggests using Webpack and Babel. Is this standard practice?

[golden bone]

I'm not the best person to answer that, sorry, but maybe someone else here will know

[native tide]

listen for a mousemove event and send it over the socket...
socket.send( stringify_object(event) );

[buoyant shuttle]

how would i resolve this

its just a warning

this is django

[native tide]

what are your models

[quasi field]

I have a quick (hopefully) question. I own a a domain ending in .dev I know there are requirements that I was must have a valid certificate to use this address for a website, but would I be able to create an API using this address and Heroku without a cert?

[native tide]

of course

you only need cert for https

meaning if you want your data you send to be encrypted then you will need to quickly install a cert on the heroku server

and then send calls to your API via https

but http will work without any certificates, but the traffic will not be encrypted so anyone on the wire can technically see what kind of requests you are sending

[golden bone]

If you do need https, check out Certbot / Let's Encrypt. It's free and not too difficult. Heroku probably has a tutorial

[quasi field]

Thanks @native tide and @golden bone I have a starting point now

[sleek phoenix]

Questions for future reference: can I code a websites front end with HTML or CSS and code the back end with python? Is a backend really necessary for some sites?

[delicate frigate]

Howdy! Looking for a library or any advice on Flask maintaining (refreshing when expired) a token to another app. This is not a user facing login but Im not sure if there's something built into Flask or another library already. Any ideas?

[inland solar]

can someone help me with my error

[buoyant shuttle]

I need help

Each time i make changes to my Css file

For some reason it doesn't show

[buoyant shuttle]

Backend is necessary for majority website.

Its how u store data and scale,

[forest sonnet]

if your website is static you dont need a backend

[slender coyote]

Hi

I am new to python

[native tide]

How to amke beautiful tables like in aave? https://app.aave.com/#/markets
if you want to help, ping me

[autumn vector]

hey django users, is it possible to insert stackoverflow style code indentation to django posts?

[inland oak]

If you want to do in easy way, you need smth like React or Vue.js

your provided table was made with React

Basically it is just a combination of HTML/CSS/SCSS syntax with a bunch of Frontend Framework Javascript in order to hook drag/drop events with rerender of the DOM

[native tide]

Am using react currently

So you mean that i only need hook drag/ drop events?

[inland oak]

Essentially yes. 🤔

and model variables that are rerendered when their values are changed

[native tide]

Okay thanks!

[inland oak]

everything else looks to me implemented at html/css level.
the autohiding of top and bottom? Html/CSS, a bit unsure how to write it though, making strict size of DIV object, and moving children objects inside of it with forbidding overflow? 🤔
visual effect on hover? CSS
movements of objects? They used CSS transition thing
the rest is obviously just CSS formating too

[native tide]

Alright

[inland oak]

Slightly more interesting that they made a feature of Sorting by certain column

[native tide]

Yeah this website is pretty complex

[inland oak]

Technically sorting feature can be implemented on the level of just resorting javascript array data without any other complications, just sorting based on different key

but they could have used Client Side SQL libraries to make it in a more advanced way

obviously they did not make requests to server side for resorted data, or they could

probably the first option was used

it looks simplest solution

[native tide]

i think they said they used apollo graphql

in their docs

[inland oak]

Shrugs. I hope it is simple

Simplicity for the win

[native tide]

Definitely

[whole drift]

hello

what are the topics I need to know for making a chat app using django?

[native tide]

I assume you're talking about the backend.

[whole drift]

yes

[sleek phoenix]

Mm, it’s complicated to put into words, but for lack of a better term I’ll say a art site but for me and my friends

So, kinda like Newgrounds but for me and my friends only (I guess, not super sure yet)

[inland oak]

https://channels.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ django channels and web sockets sound like a good start for chat apps

[slim maple]

can anybody pls help me with something pls dm

[stark tartan]

class Item(models.Model):
    fileds

    @property
    def get_average_rating(self):    
        #get ratong from comments    
        return int(round(sum(rate_list) / (len(rate_list) or 1), 1))

how to order by get_average_rating method in my Item Model it also decimal flied in type (Queryset not list )

[lament copper]

Assuming you have it as a list, you can do list_.sort(key=Item.get_average_rating) i believe

Not sure if it works with queryset, but it’s worth a shot

[wary flint]

hi, some quick help here: I have a django app where users need to connect to an external api. What's the best way to store their api key securely?

[indigo kettle]

if you want to do it purely in the database, you need to do an annotation.
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/ref/models/querysets/#annotate
some combination of F Count, Sum...

@stark tartan

[raw field]

Do Python Django "channels" (websockets), scale?

When I say scale, I mean at minimum 3 million concurrent connections.

https://goroutines.com/10m

Goroutines can have 10 million connections

It would be nice to know

No useful info on google

Just conjecture, and opinions, but no real solid info

https://github.com/django/channels/tree/main/loadtesting/2016-09-06

the best ive found was this

Daphne is not as efficient as its WSGI counterpart. When considering only latency, Daphne can have 10 times the latency when under the same traffic load as gunincorn.

[spark parcel]

@raw field nothing can honestly scale to 3M connections..

[raw field]

thats not true

[spark parcel]

It is.

[raw field]

https://phoenixframework.org/blog/the-road-to-2-million-websocket-connections

pheonix did 2 million

in 2015

its even much mroe now

[spark parcel]

I think were talking past eachother .. if your JUST going for benchmark porn, sure.

But what I meant by really is more, you cant do anything useful with those connections..

Sending a ping every 5 minutes at 10M connections was roughly the limit of what the server could handle

No one is running 2 million connections on a single server for any non-benchmark workload.

[raw field]

my point tho is

how do you scale django channels

i cant find anything about it

lol

[spark parcel]

Thats likely because no one, for real world use cases, has that many clients connected, its a tweetworthy metric. You scale out servers in all production cases that are that loaded.

or just load test it 😄

[raw field]

My goal is to use django channels to build a matchmaking service for my game.

My design concept is essentially that players will connect to the websocket and request a match, it will look for a free match that is available and then if there are enough players in the lobby to start the match it will then trigger an event (through the socket) to tell all of the users in the lobby what ip and port to use to connect

[stoic marsh]

What is the correct path way to follow to become a good web developer ?
Like first HTML & CSS then JavaScript then what?

[inland oak]

https://roadmap.sh/
Check frontend/backend and DevOps maps.
Optionally some of the more specialised ones

[opal verge]

Basically yes, it is. You can learn HTML, CSS and Git & GutHub for first.

After that, a CSS framework (like Bulma or Bootstrap) and finally JS and a library (like Angular or React)

Those 'steps' has more steps. For example, learn JS is learn EMACS, too

[willow heron]

what do i do after i have the roadmap? like even the roadmap seems very confusing to me

[modest hazel]

Hey fellas, wondering how to make a query selector with multiple values, like document.querySelector(input[aria-label="Search"|aria-label="SearchBox"])

and so on and so forth

[inland oak]

First you should choose if you wish to be frontend or backend dev first

then it will define your next things to learn 🤷‍♂️

[sleek copper]

hey yall, I need some demo testers for a big project I'm working on! Involves cloud torrenting, let me know if you're up to it, nothing illegal lol :P, just testing out my flask skills

[willow heron]

i want to get into back end

but the back end map itself confuses me

[inland oak]

https://roadmap.sh/backend
Then get started with this mega Flask tutorial
https://blog.miguelgrinberg.com/post/the-flask-mega-tutorial-part-i-hello-world
get used to git
https://learngitbranching.js.org/?locale=en_US
and learn how to deploy your application at virtual Linux machine from cloud provider

It should be pretty beginning stuff to begin

[willow heron]

the content isn't intimidating me just what to learn and what not to learn 😅

[inland oak]

i mean, if you want to do in python as backend language (answered like that because you are in python server)

if you wish to use another one... like javascript, replace flask with express or whateve ris their framework

[willow heron]

yeah i very much wanna work with node

it uses mongodb and express i guess

but my question is that once i get a hang of basic js where do i go from there?

[reef spruce]

do someone knows how to use multiple functions in a flask route? for example, i have a route called /dashboard/ and I have one function in there already but i want to add another function, but i dont have any idea how will i do it.

[inland oak]

start learning testing, the book contains all the information what to learn about that after that

Code without testing is garbage waiting to be collected 😉

get used to Jest as example

[inland oak]

Learn how to write Clean code

so it would be self documented and readable

[willow heron]

honestly i just want to get a job right now and no offence these would only help once i get a job and want to get good from there

[inland oak]

learn about OOP, how to have inheritance and etc
And just learn the basics about your chosen language as main one fully

[inland oak]

Once you got grasps of OOP, dive deeper with Design patterns

The rabbit hole is deep one, it continues further without any stop

[willow heron]

💔

[inland oak]

In general you can assume there are no backend developers who don't know SQL

at least basics of raw SQL and able to use ORMs

Raw SQL needs to be learned to understand what you are doing in ORM

PostgreSQL is a good database to work with

Get yourself familiar with Linux systems and Docker
Learn how to deploy your application with Docker at Linux server
it should be minimum any backend dev should know

[willow heron]

guess ill kill myself because i would never be able to pay my student loan this way

[inland oak]

what can I say? Most universities do not prepare us for real life 😆

We are finishing it only as a... template ready to be filled with real knowledge and skills to use

[inland oak]

a year of intensive self studies while being at first any software related work, and in general person becomes ready to be hired without problems later

a combination of a lot of self studies and a real commercial programming experience is the key to be ready

[inland oak]

real programming experience can be partially substituted by home pet projects 😉

plus they help to get hired more easily

[willow heron]

but i dont have a year

3 months and ill be on the street

[inland oak]

Junior positions are less demandful

in theory you can learn and make enough of pet projects practice to impress people for Junior positions

[inland oak]

do you have an education though?

what's your background

[native tide]

believe you use a comma. i.e.
document.querySelector('input[aria-label="Search", aria-label="SearchBox"')
but querySelector only return the first thing. so you probs want querySelectorAll?

[wheat verge]

its an unusual question but how do i learn git... I mean i have seen few vids on youtube but how to practice it?

[native tide]

its easier than you think

like 5 commands will see you good. paste them in a notepad

git init

makes the folder a .git project

git add . --all

takes all the new stuff you changed or added and gets it ready to save

git commit -am "Changed stuff"

saves it.

now. to sync that with everyone elses code. first you pull

git pull origin master

then push back

git push origin master

that's about all you need to know if you work on your own. after that you can learn branching. but get comfy with that first.

[wheat verge]

ok thanks

[native tide]

i'd avoid using a GUI like vscode plugin until ur familiar with the commands

[wheat verge]

may i know why cause i usually use vscode to do so

[native tide]

well. maybe ignore me on that. it is kinda useful. i just think it also useful to know what your actually doing first.

also use git status and git log frequently.

like between every other command. just to make sure it's as you expect

[wheat verge]

makes sense tho

[wheat verge]

thanks

[native tide]

if it ever goes wrong

delete the folder and reclone it

git clone https;//path to folder

[wheat verge]

is there any website where i can refer whats actually happening behind the scene

[native tide]

lots. also the .git folder itself has all the blobs in and configs etc

i.e. when you do git init it makes an invisible .git folder take a look in there

due to all the changes on github and not being able to use a password unless you gen a ssh key etc. it might be easier also if you just install git desktop... https://desktop.github.com/

and clone with that

[agile pier]

Hell, it matters how long you will be reading your own code you forgot after few months

[raw field]

yeah

If you know the basics of Python, pick a framework and build something. Django is the most powerful, Flask and FastAPI are a bit easier to build something simple with

socket.emit()socket.on("greetings", (elem1, elem2, elem3) => {  console.log(elem1, elem2, elem3);});

This is socket.io

[golden bone]

No, never heard of it

[raw field]

Dang

My main experience with websockets is ith socket.io

And I love the syntax because you can do stuff like i just pasted above

custom 'event' based work

so like you can send a signal to the websocket on "message" or whatever

and the websocket will send a response lol

but django channels doesnt seem to have this built in functionality

you have to do it yourself

it makes the development really beautiful and easy to work with

[digital bone]

Just, to give an overview, I am trying to build a number based chatbot(like predefined one) where you get a list of options and like it will ask how may I help you and give a list of options :

1. Seeking for career advice
2. Seeking jobs etc
   and the user will enter a number according to what they are looking for.
   So what I did is created a form and tried to route it with the python file.

Now the thing is I'm not able to route the logic and send it back to display it.

Trying it in django

would anyone know if its possible to force load all the elements in a page (or specific elements) using selenium? Because on a website I'm trying to scrape some elements only load when you scroll over them and considering the size of the website, it would take far too long for selenium to scroll through the entire site and make sure the elements properly load. Thanks

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23008794/create-database-automatically-in-django-using-settings-py-or-models-py

i refuse to believe this

ruby on rails has a setup command to create the database

rails db:create and rails db:setup

create creates the db and stops, setup creates the db, runs migrations and adds any seed data

does django really n ot have the capability of creating an initial database?!

[steel night]

I don’t think so.

[golden bone]

Sounds like this may be intentional. You can tell Selenium to scroll/click/wait as needed, or you can use an API if that's an option. But no, Selenium doesn't have a feature that magically loads data that isn't supposed to load

I have used a while loop to scroll until multiple attempts do not increase the length of the document, that's probably about as good as you can do I guess

Tysm man

[native tide]

let response = await fetch(url);

let commits = await response.text(); // read response body and parse as JSON

alert(commits);```

Keep getting error "SyntaxError: await is only valid in async functions and the top level bodies of modules
    at /script.js:3:16"

Anyone know why this is?

[manic frost]

well, await is only allowed in async functions

[native tide]

how do i call an api and set a variable to the value i receive?

[manic frost]

Where is this code from?

[native tide]

stackoverflow lmao

im trying to call my flask api

[manic frost]

You can only use await in an async function

[native tide]

okay

how would I call an api and save the response in a variable

because i dont want it to be Promise {}

[manic frost]

when do you want the request to happen?

[native tide]

or undefined

[native tide]

wdym

i want the api call to finish

and then set the variable to the response

[manic frost]

when do you want to make that call? when the page loads? when you click some button?

[native tide]

when the page loads

sorry i misunderstood

yes when the page loads

first line

[manic frost]

async function doSomething() {
  const response = await fetch(url)
  const commits = await response.text()
  alret(commits)
}

doSomething()

[native tide]

okay

wheres the variable tho

would like to assign the value of response.text() to a variable

[manic frost]

You can work with the variable in the doSomething function

Do you know how promises and async/await works in javascript?

[native tide]

no i dont

so i can only use the response.text inside the async function?

is that correct

[manic frost]

You can set a global variable:

let commits = null

async function doSomething() {
  const response = await fetch(url)
  commits = await response.text()
}

doSomething()

but then you'll need to wait until the variable is set before you can use it

[native tide]

is there a way I can stop loading the page until the request goes through?

[manic frost]

why?

what do you want to do, in general?

[native tide]

the website contains a table, all the values are from the api call, I create the table in js and use all the values from the api call to fill it in with data

[manic frost]

async function main() {
  const response = await fetch(url)
  const commits = await response.text()

  // create the table here
  // for example:
  createTable(commits)
}

window.addEventListener('load', main)

[native tide]

okay

thank you man i appreciate it

ill research promises await and async now i think

[manic frost]

If you want to learn about promises and async/await:

• MDN tutorial (not sure how good it is) https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Using_promises
• videos by FunFunFunction (they're generally good)

[native tide]

Excellent thank you

[broken mulch]

I have 2 servers, one for API one for WS and I cannot combine them into one ( financial issues ) how would I communicate between these 2 servers at lowest cost possible?

People said just build another API on the WS and request it, and some people said using Redis pubsub which I also have to host on the cloud

I think one single pubsub channel might be better than API calls in long term?

[steel night]

If your cloud provider has a message queue that would probably be the easiest solution that does the job well

[broken mulch]

Client -> POST -> api/channels/channel_id/messages

api -> db -> Success? -> POST -> WS server’s API

WS server -> dispatch MESSAGE_CREATE event to client

This is my current flow chart

[scarlet kiln]

I want to individually animate strokes in an svg, someone have suggestions as to what I am doing wrong ```js
let svg = document.getElementsByClassName(".draw")[0];

interStrokeDelay = 0.1;
strokeSpeed = 0.05;
timePassed = 0;
for (let stroke of svg.children[1].children){
if (stroke.nodeName == "path"){
console.log(stroke);
let strokeLength = stroke.getTotalLength();
let strokeDuration = strokeLength * strokeSpeed;
stroke.style.strokeLength = strokeLength;
stroke.style.strokeDuration = strokeDuration;
stroke.style.strokeDelay = timePassed;
stroke.style.strokeDashArray = String(strokeLength) + "px";
stroke.style.strokeDashoffset = String(strokeLength) + "px";
stroke.style.animation = "stroke" + String(strokeLength * (0.1 / strokeSpeed)) + "sz` linear" + timePassed+ "s forwards";
timePassed += strokeDuration + interStrokeDelay;
}
}```

I realized I was missing a space in the text for animation

serves me right for writing it like that ^^

I'm interested in learning about web development in Python, but 90% of the job/internship postings related to Python in my city seem to be about data science, and rarely anything about web development. Should I learn Javascript instead even if I do like Python?

[scarlet kiln]

if you want to do web dev some amount of javascript is basically a must

since the frontend will inevitably use js

but for the backend python exists

most jobs in my area are java spring or nodejs though

Hello I am using Flask for a project

I need help plz

there are two user roles

admin and normal user, normal user can post their complaint and admin can see them all and can also give feedback( or respond) to those posts

here posts are some type of complaints which user have on a specific topic

MY PROBLEM is that when admin gives respond to the complaint then that complaint should not be visible on the admin dashboard in future( means just after giving response)

How to do this

I hope i am able to justify my problem clearly

the scope of the variables are different

they both declare variables in JS, but var is old. let is recommended in the present day

[inland oak]

quite trashy code

it would be easier to delete it

https://pastebin.com/Q2Ew5KNL

you used float: left and display: flex

without knowing what is it, just in every element

I bet all other things you used in the same style

you should read this book in order to gain basic understanding what you are doing

and building stuff bit by bit with elements you know how to use

and not just copy pasting from some random place

[wet hinge]

hiho, I am building a django + react project. I want to do the following:

1. User goes to 127.0.0.1:8000/book/<TITLE HERE>
2. Django gets info about this book from some other API
3. User sees info about the book in react frontend

I heard I should use django rest framework to communicate django with react. Though, I don't know how to do that, since I won't be storing any data in my DB. How to pass info fetched from some other API to react frontend?

[steel night]

If you're not storing any data in a DB, why does the data need to pass through Django at all? But the easy answer is write a REST API endpoint in your django server, where all it does is run the request to the other API then return the same data the other API gave it

[wet hinge]

lets say I want to enable user to add the book to database using a button

could you navigate me to how should the return look like? until now I only worked with models and serializers
it's probably very simple but I'm inexperienced with Django and I'm not even sure what to search for

[ocean slate]

Hello, how can I see my database file after deployment?

I deployed my web app on Heroku and now I want to see data and tables and the records inside table, how can I see that

[ivory lotus]

def error_404_view(request, exception):
    return render(request, 'pagenotfound.html')

this is my view for a 404 page handler
handler404 = 'thedogenet.views.error_404_view' added this to urls.py, and also DEBUG is false. this was working until idk what shit I did and then it now shows a Server Error(500). I don't know why this is happening

A server error occurred. Please contact the administrator. okay

[native tide]

other than 500

we will need to see the full

error message on the server's side

[ivory lotus]

ok

[steel night]

I don't know your codebase, so I don't exactly what you'd want in the return from the REST API POST call initiated by the button press. But standard behavior would be to return HTTP 200 on success. If no other info is required by the frontend (or other API users), that's all. A typical pattern in API design is to return the serialized database object that was created by your POST call tho. Ideally, the API implementation should be totally independent of how it is being called on the client side - by frontend, other server, or curl calls. All http hits to POST myserver/book/title are treated the same

[wet hinge]

thank you! could I tag you once in a while if I get some more concise questions?

[ivory lotus]

[28/Feb/2022 21:30:32] "GET /aaaaa HTTP/1.1" 500 145

idk if thats what you want

do you want the error raised when using the inspect element?

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error)

didn't see anything in the console particularly concerning

only the Server Error

[steel night]

just ask on the channel, there's plenty of knowledgable people willing to help around

no need to tag me or anyone else individually

[wet hinge]

often there's plenty of people asking about stuff and some questions go by unanswered, some of mine were omitted in the past also
having someone tagged (if he agreed) helps, especially when the questions are not big

I understand your stance though and respect it, thank you for your help!

[ivory lotus]

oh nevermind

I fixed it

the <img> tag was screwing the whole thing up

[native tide]

enable debug=True

there should be a full error message

oh nvm then

thanks for trying to help 😄

[grizzled estuary]

In flask I want to run a script and if someone requests to run it again it will display that its already running. How can i achieve that? I tried to setup a variable and increase it on script run but if someone leaves the page while the script is running it never resets so you cannot run the script again despite it is finished

[native tide]

if you're checking against the increased variable, just decrease it after the script is finished

not sure how you're doing that atm, but you should use something outside of flask to store the content of this variable

you'll be running multiple instances of your flask app in production

[crimson monolith]

Hello. Is it a good practice for a PUT request to return the modified resource besides returning 200 OK? Or should it only return an HTTP code and call a GET method?

[native tide]

its a good practice for APIs that are "models" oriented

so for something like django rest api

They do not allow you to enumerate or list the channels in a group; it’s a pure broadcast system. If you need more precise control or need to know who is connected, you should build your own system or use a suitable third-party one.

Does anyone know another system that can do this? I would like to be able to know how many users are in a group

And some information about some status info of a group

How can I provide that ":focus" event work for "select" element when I click inside It's parent element ?
https://codepen.io/mehmetguduk/pen/vYWVGPK

[inland oak]

active will work too

&:active {
   outline: none;
}

I think focus is working only for specific html elements like input

that's the issue

[tidal halo]

this is not what am I asking

[inland oak]

okay. you wish clicking div to activate select then... 🤔

at CSS level you have option only to use target

otherwise it requires already javascript

frontend framework like Vue.js/React for easy way, Vanilla JS/Jquery for hardway

[inland oak]

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/:target
CSS target and smart anchor usage

[tidal halo]

there is no information about triggering select here. Also I know that this is impossible with only html and css. JS should be solution. but how ?

[inland oak]

attaching necessary listening event and adding/removing CSS class to the necessary object when it is triggered

in frontend framework this action is heavily simplified 🤔

There is an option to use frontend framework as static library, so I could I guess write and show you it without complicated installations

[inland oak]

i'll write solution a bit later

[tidal halo]

I would love that 🙂

you can customize further to have it focusing effect

well, i guess i could write it to for you

I'm trying to use an API which takes a session ID header with each request for authentication. Up until now I've been manually copying it over from a session cookie, however I'm wanting to upgrade the program so I can add in my credentials in some sort of configuration file (less preferable) or create some sort of "integration" which allows me to authenticate more securely than that. All I know so far is that I log into the account using a Microsoft account integration, but I'm not sure how much that helps. So far, I've got a capture of the web traffic during the login process, but it might as well be in Latin for me. Does anyone have any pointers? Thanks in advance.

(I'd rather not supply the capture, as it contains potentially sensitive information)

[split snow]

data2 = [{"pet" : "dog", "name": "mark"}, {"pet" : "cat", "name": "ivan"}, {"pet" : "cat", "name": "ivan"}]

how to find duplicate and extract it expected output is

{"pet" : "cat", "name": "ivan"}

[inland oak]

clarify your definition of duplicates

[split snow]

duplicate dict in a list

[inland oak]

to be duplicate, do you need to have identical pet and human name?

[split snow]

example

data2 = [{"pet" : "dog", "name": "mark"}, {"pet" : "cat", "name": "ivan"}, {"pet" : "cat", "name": "ivan"}]

output = [{"pet" : "cat", "name": "ivan"}]

yes sir

[inland oak]

!e

data2 = [{"pet" : "dog", "name": "mark"}, {"pet" : "cat", "name": "ivan"}, {"pet" : "cat", "name": "ivan"}]
import json
ans = {json.dumps(i):data2.count(i) for i in data2}
print(ans)

[lavish prism]

@inland oak :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

{'{"pet": "dog", "name": "mark"}': 1, '{"pet": "cat", "name": "ivan"}': 2}

[inland oak]

you are trying to count duplicates in a list, not in a dict

[split snow]

sorry

[inland oak]

!e

data2 = [{"pet" : "dog", "name": "mark"}, {"pet" : "cat", "name": "ivan"}, {"pet" : "cat", "name": "ivan"}]
import json
ans = {json.dumps(i):data2.count(i) for i in data2 if data2.count(i) > 1}
print(ans)

[lavish prism]

@inland oak :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

{'{"pet": "cat", "name": "ivan"}': 2}

[split snow]

but can we extract what has dup?

[inland oak]

!e

data2 = [{"pet" : "dog", "name": "mark"}, {"pet" : "cat", "name": "ivan"}, {"pet" : "cat", "name": "ivan"}]
import json
duplicates = {json.dumps(i):data2.count(i) for i in data2 if data2.count(i) > 1}
for duplicate in duplicates.keys():
  print(duplicate)

[lavish prism]

@inland oak :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

{"pet": "cat", "name": "ivan"}

[split snow]

Thank you so much sir @inland oak

So I have this and I want to show how much time has passed since then and I'm having trouble find a solution...

[peak lily]

Hi I'm need of help. I'm currently making a project in Django, but the question isn’t specific to Django… In adapters.py, I’m trying to import model classes from models.py (see image below). I’ve tried using

from ...grandfather.app.models import *

, but I get an error saying that ‘attempted relative import beyond top-level package’.

In general I don’t fully understand the path system fully + I don't know what the best practice is for this problem.

Any guidance would be much appreciated.

update:

I've also tried adding 'init.py' files to the grandfather and project directories too, as suggested by somebody on StackOverflow.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68554755/valueerror-attempted-relative-import-beyond-top-level-package-python

[steel night]

I would strongly recommend to not do what you are trying to do. Even if you get the “above top-level import” to work, it will be extremely brittle to any changes in the folder structure or, from which working directory you run the ‘python manage.py’ commands used to run the Django server. Consider either making an installable library out of whatever is in “grandfather”, or moving it into a child directory of “app”.

And yes, you should always add dunder-init files in every directory containing python code

[peak lily]

Thanks for the advice. The allauth redirects that I'm trying to use require this directory structure:

"# project/settings.py:
ACCOUNT_ADAPTER = 'project.users.adapter.MyAccountAdapter'

project/users/adapter.py:

from django.conf import settings
from allauth.account.adapter import DefaultAccountAdapter"

• is there a workaround to this then?

https://django-allauth.readthedocs.io/en/latest/advanced.html

[steel night]

You can’t move “project” to a “app/project”?

Er

[peak lily]

I'll give it a go.

[steel night]

Where is your manage.py?

That’s the key here

[peak lily]

It's in the grandfather

[steel night]

Oh

Then there should be no problem.

Which import is failing?

[peak lily]

2 seconds, just going to attempt the relocation

[steel night]

No I was confused- you shouldn’t move project into app if project is already a child of the Django work directory

So you were trying “from …grandfather.etc import blah”. Just get rid of the “…”

As long as you’re launching the server like “cd grandfather; python manage.py blah” there shouldn’t be any issue

[peak lily]

Sorry for the lack of transparency here. I'm going to add another layer of confusion here, but 'project' is not the directory with 'settings.py' in.

So I think the naming conventions might be confusing me. If I place users inside my true project directory, will it still work. I've remained with topic/users because it specified in the docs

Also the redirects work when 'project' isn't the true project name

So the parent directories are called 'project', 'actual project name' (with settings.py in), and 'app'.

[steel night]

You’ve thoroughly lost me

What redirects

Please just tell me where your manage.py is lol the only thing that matters for imports in a Django application is the path from the file you’re working on back to manage.py

[peak lily]

Its in the grandfather

Sorry, I really appreciate the help, I'm lost myself .. haha

also the redirects
get_login_redirect_url(self, request)
get_logout_redirect_url(self, request)

[steel night]

Not sure why you’re bringing that up it seems entirely irrelevant to the import issue

[peak lily]

I want to import my models as I have a cookie session and want to set a cookie session on login

Scrap the models for a second. How can I set a cookie session in these redirect views?

Maybe you're right about trying to import the models in general, and I should rethink the approach.

[steel night]

It’s been a a solid year since I played around with Auth in a Django app. I don’t remember how I did it. Sorry

And yeah so “what You want to do with the code you import” is entirely irrelevant to “how to write the import statement”

[peak lily]

Agreed.

Hopefully next time I can really figure out what I'm trying to ask too.

I think that what I want to do can probably be done via signals and I'm trying something impractical. Back to the drawing board ... xD @steel night thanks for your time, and advice.

[prisma ravine]

Does web design falls under web development?

[warm aurora]

Heyy

[tight pasture]

@frank shoal

[frank shoal]

?

[tight pasture]

do you rmr my project from the other day

the one i had to exract for it to work??

[warm aurora]

@frank shoal

[frank shoal]

Ask your question

[warm aurora]

My question is if u have to modifiy the last codes how do i do that while i keep it zipped

[frank shoal]

Why is it zipped?

[warm aurora]

Because otherwise the images wouldnt upload

[frank shoal]

You can't rezip it?

The images are already uploaded anyway.

[warm aurora]

No each assisgnment we upload a new website link

So like we build on last weeks code

[frank shoal]

You should make a new zip file each time.

[warm aurora]

I didnt make the first one

[frank shoal]

And you should be able to copy a folder

[warm aurora]

Ik but its not workin

I just dont understand the problem

As in why the images dont upload if not zipped

[frank shoal]

They do upload, but they upload to the folder you dragged them to

i.e. not in a subdirectory

the folder doesn't get uploaded. Each file in the folder gets uploaded

[warm aurora]

So inside last weeks zipped file theres 5 things… images folder and then file 1 file 2 file 3 and file 4

Files 1-4 r different this week but the images r the same

I tried to replace files 1-4 but it wouldn’t work

[frank shoal]

windows explorer doesn't support updating zip files. Use 7-zip instead

[native tide]

Any chance anyone know how to fix this

[frank shoal]

powershell uses ` for escapes

i.e. ```py
ts-node foobar -e x
-t z

[muted meadow]

https://py-dle.herokuapp.com/ what do you think about this site I made using flask? It's kinda like wordle but for daily python challenges

I currently use pypyjs to compile the python code in the web so I ownt have to send it to the backend server then people would be able to do all sorts of stuff with it

But maybe there is a better solution

[stiff bramble]

guys, how do i start my api in procfile (heroku, fastapi)?

my server is on file, now boot is on another

[untold scroll]

Hi guys, I have a doubt about Django. I have a BlogPost model in which I have three attributes (author, title and content). Both title and content are editable when I want to create a new post with CBV, such as:

    model = BlogPost
    # hits .save() after all the fields are validated
    fields = ["title", "content"]
    # looks for model_form.html if template_name isn't specified
    template_name = "pages_app/blog_form.html"
    success_url = reverse_lazy('pages_app:blog') ```

but one thing I'm not sure is how to use the current logged in user's username to use as the "author" attribute. I'd love to know what to do from here, thanks in advance!

[arctic hamlet]

if you have extended the user mode, and author is a model field, try user.author
you should be able to use it in a view like this: request.user.author

same with if you wanted to access a user's email: request.user.email in the view logic

[untold scroll]

how do I extend the user model? Not sure if I got this correctly. Because it doesn't seem like I can use request from inside a ClassBasedView

[young hazel]

Hey there Friends ! I need help. I'm creating A django app,where after search data is fetched from the api and rendered as list content cards
But I want to create a seperate page,where when user clicks each card is redirected to the page of that card with more data in it
How should I do that ?

[agile pier]

how to lock a user after 5 unsuccessful login attempts in django?

[covert yew]

@views.route('/delete-comment/<comment_id>')
@login_required

    comment = Comment.query.filter_by(id=comment_id).first()
    db.session.remove(comment)
    db.session.commit()

    return redirect(url_for('views.home'))

I have tried fixing this for a while and Im not sure what is the problem

[arctic hamlet]

Easiest thing to do is use a package like https://pypi.org/project/django-axes/

Depends if you are doing this on the django-admin login or your apps login. I like to use the django-allauth package for my django projects for all authentication needs auth security. https://django-allauth.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

[outer apex]

If you're using Flask-SQLAlchemy, it's delete that you want, not remove.
https://flask-sqlalchemy.palletsprojects.com/en/2.x/queries/#deleting-records

Remove is to remove the session itself
https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/14/orm/contextual.html?highlight=remove#sqlalchemy.orm.scoping.scoped_session.remove

[covert yew]

wow im dumb

Thanks @outer apex

my brain was not working

thanks

[amber patio]

I'm finding flask more flexible and versatile than django but since I'm relatively new to python as it I'm getting more people's opinions that django is used more than flask. Although I don't think that there are any drawbacks using django over flask but I want some overall opinion especially in terms of demand in the market and usage. Which one do you prefer over the other and why?

Hi I need some assistance, using python3, flask, apache2, mod_wsgi

my .wsgi file doesnt work with the supplied code at the bottom of https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/2.0.x/deploying/mod_wsgi/

activate_this = '/path/to/env/bin/activate_this.py'
with open(activate_this) as file_:
    exec(file_.read(), dict(__file__=activate_this))

will not work for me because I dont have activate_this.py

i got it but it didnt work

im using python3 venv

not virtualenv

[crystal pelican]

activate_this is meant to be the file you run that activates the venv

[eternal kestrel]

Hi @crystal pelican so if its the regular venv bin/activate it doesnt work, it has to be python

virtuenenv has an onld file flask docs refer to called activate_this.py

i downloaded it and put it in bin like stackoverflow said because it should work

but it did not solve my issue

my issue is

I cant import local python files to my flask app.py

I sorted out venv pip imports

which now work

so i guess it is using my venv

idk

im lost

local files wont import

pip files will

front

fixed it

whats this issue

Hi
I am using function based APIs (in views.py) in DjangoRestFramework and want to access variables from one API to another using request.sessions
However, I am able to add into sessions for only one API at a time and when I access the session dict in another API, it is empty.
If anyone has any clue on how to get this working please contact me. Thanks!

If you know any other way of doing (except global variables) it you're welcome to answer

Vague/Open-ended question, what is the neatest way to make a website chatbot?

[golden bone]

Flask is fine if it suits your use case. Django is more powerful but also more complex so it really depends on what you are trying to do. You might also consider FastAPI, again it all depends on your use case

[golden bone]

I can't help you there but if you show your code maybe someone can

[pure furnace]

yooo

can someone check an error in my website

scihigh.online/surp.html

[golden bone]

Looks like a Rick Roll error to me

Hey guys. When making an API, what framework would you say is the most in demand in the professional scene: FastAPI, Flask or Django?

[golden bone]

There's data you can find on this and I think Django is probably #1 but it doesn't really matter that much. The concepts are similar enough that if you know one well you could be hired for another

[pallid frost]

OK, thanks

Hi, got a question.
I'm trying to make a simple Flask app which saves to SQLite, but every time I try to save to the db, I get some error about the initiating thread and the thread adding to the db being different

[summer galleon]

Anyone here have experience using Microsoft Authentication Library (MSAL) for authentication with fastAPI as backend and a React frontend?

[wicked pier]

What is the idiomatic way to have a long-lived connection to the database?

[torn valley]

hi
im a new python programmer
and i want to know how can i improve my power of write code in python in any platforms
can somebody give me some info ?

[golden bone]

Build stuff. Whatever interests you, it doesn't matter, just keep coding

[surreal thicket]

set up a connection pool in your application, and grab a connection from the pool when you need to make a database request

[wicked pier]

Yes, but I've been having a hard time figuring out how that's done.
I think I did find something though

[surreal thicket]

what database library are you using? are you using asyncio or not?

some of them do connection pooling for you

also sqlalchemy does connection pooling

[wicked pier]

Not asyncio. Sqlalchemy also looked a little heavy for what I'm trying to do.
I think I found a way to do what I want using Flask's g object

[surreal thicket]

g is more or less scoped to a single request

technically it's scoped to an "application context", but the lifetime of an application context is not much bigger than a request context https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/2.0.x/appcontext/#lifetime-of-the-context

so you can use flask.g to set the connection to be used, but you will still want a connection pool that survives between contexts

a global, or an instance attribute on your flask app object, is fine for this

[runic sparrow]

I'm trying to interact with a website API, however I'm a bit stumped on authentication. When I use this web service, the only way to authenticate is via a Microsoft integration, however I'm not sure how to do that programmatically. Is there a Microsoft endpoint I have to utilise? Do I have to look into OAuth2? Or would the best way be to replicate the user's process in navigating the page sign-in?

Sorry that my question is a bit open-ended, I'm pretty clueless on this topic and don't know what direction to head in to proceed. Any help is greatly appreciated!

[surreal thicket]

@runic sparrow that's an unusual problem. is this some kind of automation task for your job?

[runic sparrow]

Sort of - I'm trying to create a command-line tool to access various information from our VLE such as announcements, homework tasks, etc.

[surreal thicket]

VLE?

[runic sparrow]

virtual learning environment

like Google Classroom

however, we use "Firefly Learning" instead, and to be honest it's quite a pain

[surreal thicket]

i see. this is teetering on the edge of rule 5, so honestly i'm not sure we're allowed to help with this

let me ask

[runic sparrow]

I doubt it's breaking any rules - I'm not web scraping or acting as an user, it has a proper REST API (https://[SchoolName].fireflycloud.net/api/v2/)

[surreal portal]

Since the wheel isn't available yet on Selenium, how do I scroll to bottom?

Thank you

[golden bone]

Authentication isn't covered in the documentation for the API?

[runic sparrow]

There's absolutely zero documentation

even their own developers seem to struggle - the mobile app implements only around a quarter of the site's features

[wicked pier]

thanks for the advice.
to reiterate, would SQL Alchemy be the simplest way about this?

I'm looking for as simple an answer to this as possible

aka, no ORM or anything needed

[distant plover]

@app.route('/add/<int:n1>,<int:n2>')
def add(n1,n2):
    sum = n1+n2```

here instead of n1 and n2 just , i want to take a whole list or tuple of integers

idont know how to do that

[wicked pier]

You might be better served using something like a POST request

with the numbers you're looking to add in the request body

[distant plover]

i m building a rest api

[surreal thicket]

well the existence of an api doesn't mean you're allowed to use it 🙂

in general you'd have to inspect the network requests to see what headers and other payload information is sent

maybe an auth header, or an access token as a url query parameter, or something in the request body even

[surreal thicket]

add doesn't sound like a "resource" in the sense of REST

this is more like a procedure call

[surreal thicket]

that i'm not sure. you might be able to roll your own, or there might be some general purpose 'resource pool' package out there

but this is more of an #async-and-concurrency question: "my database library does not provide connection pooling, how can i build a connection pool? what problems do i need to watch out for?"

[astral thistle]

Hi guys excuseme, is there another way to create a Relational Database without using Mysql and ForeignKeys?

[golden bone]

You could use Postgres or another flavor of SQL. Relational DB more or less means SQL with foreign keys. You can use a non-relational db if you want to instead

[eternal kestrel]

Hi please assist me

I'm using flask, apache, mod WSGI, I can run the same set up locally and everything works fine. on my VPS I get error 403 Forbidden

You don't have permission to access this resource.

I have 755 file permission on /var/www/html where my files are

and 644 on files

chown is www-data:www-data

still doesnt work

what do i do please

wheres the flask experts

[native tide]

default pfp gang

[native tide]

try sudo

💀

[eternal kestrel]

sudo what? lol

its apache

[native tide]

have u never used linux

oh

u cant use flask with apache i think

oh u can

mb

im not good w flask

lmao

[eternal kestrel]

flask recommends using a production server with WSGI module

yea

[native tide]

try gunicorn

[wicked pier]

yeah, I see. Appreciate the advice!

[eternal kestrel]

Probably caused by your application running as the wrong user. Make sure the folders the application needs access to have the proper privileges set and the application runs as the correct user (user and group parameter to the WSGIDaemonProcess directive)

user=www-data group=www-data

doesnt work

I might try gunircorn

I want to use apache

[eternal kestrel]

why is flask trying to serve my files from /var/www/html instead of the dir configured in apache which is /var/www/html/data

i get 403 on /var/www/html/requestedfile instead of /var/www/html/data/requestedfile

Hi, apache and mod_wsgi are trying to serve my flask routes at /var/www/html/requestedroute instead of /var/www/html/data/requestedroute wihch is configured in my apache configruation and site conf. as a result I get 403 error. how do i fix this please?

[tepid lark]

How would I go about storing a requests (the http library) Session between requests in Django?

I'm using a pre fork worker gunicorn setup

[tepid lark]

what about it

[visual cedar]

any easy to digest resources for learning how to let others see my app? all I know is that I need a web server?? so I installed apache, and I now need to somehow find a way to throw my app in front of port 80 but this feels a little over my head

[rotund perch]

Hello, I have a question more focused on web hosting. If you created a Django RESTful API & created a seperated Frontend to request Django API endpoints to get responses, is it possible to host it on one webserver like making the Frontend & the Backend on the same Domain or create subdomains for it? Also similar situation is it possible to host 2 or more Backend apps (APIs) on one domain/webserver as I mentioned above? (I usually use Heroku because it is free, if there is a free alternative to achieve my goal or even a paid provider, good to share).

[inland oak]

Yes, it is possible

in any configuration

usually there are two approaches

1. Using two domains for one host. Frontend from example.com, Back from back.example.com
2. Using subpaths. Front from example.com/, back from example.com/api/

Web server/Reverse proxy like nginx will allow you to configure it

[rotund perch]

Do you have any idea how to achieve that on Heroku? Because it requires to detect the language you used in the file (Like Python) and do some configurations so I dont know if I had a node js and a Django file how it would work

[inland oak]

no idea, i assume that people in general use VPS, Virtual machines

Linux server like Ubuntu 20.04, is all that is needed for simple setup

For more advanced setups people deploy stuff like that to Kubernetes ;b

[rotund perch]

Okay. Thanks for helping!

[inland oak]

U a welcome.

[inland oak]

I would advice getting a hang of..

Docker + Docker-compose should be a good start for simpliest setup

I should learn this I always delay learning ci/cd, devops, testing and cloud services

[rotund perch]

You are passing form parameter why?

[inland oak]

I could advice you using Hetzner cloud provider

it is cheap and quality provider to get started

and concentrating first on... getting used to linux+docker
and testing is good idea too

[rotund perch]

Okay will look at it. However I am not a fan of configuring my own server setting if that is the case

[inland oak]

People use Infrastructure as a Code stuff

everything is automatized to setup servers

u just aren't probably ready for this yet, regular Linux + Docker/Docker-compose should be a start on this road

how do i get prev 6 months data from django models?

[rotund perch]

TheModel.objects.filter(dateField__lte=<date>)

#Or
Sample.objects.filter(date__range=["2011-01-01", "2011-01-31"])

hi i have two user models (A and B) in flask, and i'm trying to figure out how to use flask-login's user loader to login either A or B, any idea how to do that?

[agile pier]

how do i apply strftime or something similar to get only month from my DateTime field while filtering a django model?

graphs = graph.objects.filter(organisation__name = username, month = prev_mon)

Here, month is a datetime field, so it is in the format 'YYYY-MM-DD' , and prev_mon is 'Feb'

How do I compare only month of the month field?

[rotund perch]

Try graphs.TheDate.strftime('%M')

[tacit kestrel]

def register_collector_process():
    """Process collector registration."""

    if request.form.get('Collector'):
        return redirect('/register_collector')
    if request.form.get('Store'):
        return redirect('/register_store')```
Keep getting a 405 that it wont redirect after I check one of the options in the checkbox. Any ideas why?

[agile pier]

didn't understood

[rotund perch]

Your variable graphs returns a querset right?

[agile pier]

Yes

[rotund perch]

Whats the field on the model graph that holds the date?

[agile pier]

month

[rotund perch]

Uts name is month?

[agile pier]

class graph(models.Model):
    organisation = models.ForeignKey(organisation, on_delete = models.CASCADE, null = True)
    active_assets = models.PositiveIntegerField()
    inactive_assets = models.PositiveIntegerField()
    vul = models.PositiveIntegerField()
    dataleaks = models.PositiveIntegerField()
    month = models.DateField(null=True, blank=True)

[rotund perch]

Ok try graphs.month.strftime('%M') after this

[agile pier]

it is giving error in month = prev_mon while filtering as i told

['“Feb” value has an invalid date format. It must be in YYYY-MM-DD format.']

[rotund perch]

Wait how are you saving data?

How are u creating the graph model objects?

[agile pier]

.

[rotund perch]

No this is the model

I mean

The fields on the db

Go to the admin

And scrnshot

[rotund perch]

Oh I see

[rotund perch]

prev_mon = "Feb"?

[agile pier]

Yes

[rotund perch]

If you notice the Month field is "2021-06-15" So prev_mon must be the same way

[agile pier]

can't we do strftime like we do normally?

[rotund perch]

I think it gives you a number not a name

[agile pier]

Okay, thanks for the try though

[rotund perch]

You want to get all the data for the prev month right?

[agile pier]

Yes

[rotund perch]

you can with graph.objects.filter(month__lte = "2022-02-28")

lte stands for less than or equal

[agile pier]

okay thanks👍

[rotund perch]

your welcome

[eternal kestrel]

token is a variable you defined in your for loop statement so it only exists within the loop

after loop is over its gone

so after you print each token on each line token doesnt exist when the loop ends

[boreal parrot]

oh

Can anyone help with this: apache and mod_wsgi are trying to serve my flask routes at /var/www/html/requestedroute instead of /var/www/html/data/requestedroute wihch is configured in my apache configruation and site conf. as a result I get 403 error. how do i fix this please?

[eternal kestrel]

<Directory /var/www/html/front> <<---- this is my directory block in front.conf

this is the error in apache logs

AH01630: client denied by server configuration: /var/www/html/buy

my flask app is supposed to server /buy from the root level

i dont get why it says /var/www/html/buy when it should be /var/www/html/front/buy

and also, does this indicate flask routes are working
