Sending unsafe requests from web extension to DRF - cannot send Referer

[Brad Solomon]

We have a web extension using Chrome Manifest V3 
, which talks with 
a backend web service written with Django (3.2) / Django Rest Framework, 
and served with Gunicorn/Nginx.

After turning on HTTPS, we are no longer to successfully make unsafe (e.g. 
POST) requests to the Django app. The reason things has broken is clear to 
us, but it seems unclear how they can be fixed without turning off csrf 
protection everywhere.

*> csrf failed: referer checking failed: no referer *

As explained in the Django docs, in this scenario, Django requires that the 
client send both a csrf token and a Referer header. 
 Our 
extension can easily grab the csrf token, but it seems impossible to 
actually send a Referer header, which instead seems to be stripped out by 
the browser. Chrome MV3 has switched to `chrome.declarativenetrequest`, 
which currently does not allow a modify or set on request headers (only 
response). This appears to be a known "bug" or a point of contention, 
though depends who you ask.

The Django app requires SessionAuthentication. It uses 
SECURE_REFERRER_POLICY = "no-referrer-when-downgrade". Nginx sends 
X-Forwarded-For, X-Forwarded-Host, and X-Forwarded-Proto to the Django app.

All of this leaves us seemingly SOL. What makes things more tricky is that 
the chrome extension URL is effectively random, e.g. 
chrome-extension://asdfasdfadsf, and this doesn't seem to work with 
CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS anyway.

Are we missing anything here, or are we left to just blanket-csrf_exempt 
everything?

Replicating complex query with two dense_rank() functions using ORM

[Brad Buran]

I have a "puzzle of the day" that users can answer. I track the puzzle of 
the day using the Puzzle model. I track the answers using the PuzzleAnswer 
model. I would like to calculate the number of consecutive puzzles a 
particular user (i.e., the author) gets right in a row. The current SQL I 
use that can calculate the start date of the streak, end date of the streak 
and the number of days in the streak. As you can see, it does a dens_rank 
over the puzzles (to count them in order), then does a join with the 
PuzzleAnswer, then does a second dense rank over the merged tables. I 
figured out how to use the DenseRank function in the Django ORM on the 
Puzzle manager, but I cannot figure out how to do the left join next. Any 
advice?

SELECT min(s.id) AS id, 
   count(s.date) AS streak, 
   min(s.date) AS start_streak, 
   max(s.date) AS end_streak, 
   s.author_id 
  FROM ( SELECT dense_rank() OVER (ORDER BY ROW(pa.author_id, pr.rank)) AS 
id, 
   pa.created AS date, 
   (pr.rank - dense_rank() OVER (ORDER BY ROW(pa.author_id, 
pr.rank))) AS g, 
   pa.author_id 
  FROM (( SELECT "POTD_puzzle".id, 
   dense_rank() OVER (ORDER BY "POTD_puzzle".published) AS 
rank 
  FROM public."POTD_puzzle") pr 
JOIN public."POTD_puzzleanswer" pa ON ((pr.id = pa.puzzle_id))) 
 WHERE pa.correct) s 
 GROUP BY s.author_id, s.g 
 ORDER BY count(s.date) DESC;

The models are:

class PuzzleAnswer(models.Model): 
   puzzle = models.ForeignKey(Puzzle, editable=True, on_delete=models.CASCADE) 

   answer = models.CharField(max_length=64)   
   correct = models.BooleanField(editable=False)
   created = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) 
   author = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, blank=True, null=True, 

  on_delete=models.SET_NULL) 

  

class Puzzle(models.Model):
   category = models.ForeignKey(PuzzleCategory, on_delete=models.CASCADE, 
help_text=category_help)
   notation = models.CharField(max_length=64) 
   correct_answer = models.CharField(max_length=64) 
   published = models.DateField(blank=True, null=True, db_index=True, unique
=True)

Django formset, forms passing unique choices into a choicefield for each form

[Brad Allgood]

Initially posted on stack overflow:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/59395761/passing-dynamic-choices-into-a-formset-unique-for-each-form

I am working on what I thought was a simple college football confidence 
pool. The concept is as follows:

   - Bowl Model: Model that stores information of each bowl game being 
   played this season
   - Team Model: Model for all the teams playing in a bowl with a foreign 
   key to the bowl

models.py

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import Group, User

class Bowl(models.Model):
"""Model for Bowl Game information"""
name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
b_date = models.DateField(null=True, blank=True)
b_time = models.TimeField(null=True, blank=True)
tv = models.CharField(max_length=10)
location = models.CharField(max_length=200)

def __str__(self):
"""String for representing the bowl object"""
return self.name

class Team(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
bowl = models.ForeignKey(Bowl,on_delete=models.SET_NULL,null=True)

def __str__(self):
"""String for representing the intermediate table"""
return self.name   

I'm attempting to create a page has a formset which allows the user to pick 
the predicted winner of each game. Therefore I constructed the following 
view to call the form and formset.
views.py

   def fs_test(request):

   bowl_list = Bowl.objects.all()
   bowl_len = len(bowl_list)
   bowl_data = []

   TestFormSet = formset_factory(TestForm, extra=0)

   for bowl in bowl_list:
  bowl_data.append({
  't_bowl': bowl.name,'t_user':request.user,'t_weight':1,
  't_winner':winner_data,
  })

   if request.method == 'POST':
   pass
   else:
   formset = TestFormSet(initial=bowl_data)

   context = {
   'formset':formset, 'bowl_data':bowl_data
   }
   return render(request, 'catalog/test_bowl.html',context)

The following form inherits pre-populated data via passing "bowl_data" in 
the "initial" parameter.
forms.py

class TestForm(forms.Form):
 def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
 super(TestForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
 self.fields['t_bowl'] = forms.CharField()
 self.fields['t_weight'] = forms.IntegerField()
 self.fields['t_user'] = forms.CharField()
 self.fields['t_winner'] = forms.ChoiceField(
 widget=forms.RadioSelect,
 required=True,
 choices=[(o.name, o.name)
 for o in Team.objects.filter(bowl__name__exact=self.t_bowl)]
 )

I believe pre-populating the t_winner choices are failing because using the 
self.t_bowl in the query is just a field reference not the name of the 
field. I don't know how to pass in the "bowl" name to the form query. Or 
maybe I pre-populate the "choices" in the view but I don't know how to pass 
a dict into it and reference the correct index.

I've done some reading on the get_form_kwargs, but I'm not clear on how to 
use it in this instance.

It's entirely possible I'm using the wrong data model for this task, 
however I've been stumped for a couple of day on this. It took me a while 
to even figure out how to pass in unique "initial" values for each form in 
the formset.

Any recommendations would save what little hair I have left. Thank you!

mod_wsgi picking up wrong settings

[Brad Rice]

I have multiple websites setup on a linode cloud. I am using Virtual Host 
containers with WSGI paths and Virtual Envs for each app. When I set any of 
the apps to Debug = False, they throw 500 errors.

It appears they are using the same wsgi environment settings because the 
error is ALLOWED_HOSTS and it tells me it can't use the ALLOWED_HOSTS 
listed in the other app, not the one I'm trying to run. It appears the the 
wsgi running in deamon mode is bleeding into each other. Any idea what I 
need to do to get it to work? If I set Debug = True, everything works fine. 
I'm not to savy when it comes to wsgi and apache. I just want to build 
sites.

Re: Make mobile app from webapp

[Brad Pitcher]

The basic formula we've used in the past:
1. Decouple back- and front-end using API
2. Use django-bakery (https://django-bakery.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) to
export the needed pages to HTML (requires the use of class-based views,
which are actually really awesome)
3. Use Phonegap to wrap these HTML pages into an app

Steps 2 and 3 are build steps, the HTML should not be edited or checked in
to source control.

Re: issue in hosting https://www.pythonanywhere.com

[Brad Pitcher]

Atul,
Have you looked over the troubleshooting in
https://help.pythonanywhere.com/pages/DebuggingImportError ? It looks like
your web app is using a separate django installed to the system python
based on the paths in the error log. You should be able to fix that in the
*_wsgi.py file.

Re: issue in hosting https://www.pythonanywhere.com

[Brad Pitcher]

The paths in your logs indicate you aren't using a virtualenv. Find the
virtualenv section in the web tab and make sure you specify the path to
your virtualenv there. Should be something like
/home/[username]/.virtualenvs/djangoVenv

change display value of filter in admin

[Brad Rice]

I have a field that has two values set "S" or "E". I use it to filter 
records in the admin. I would like the values in the filter to be spelled 
out as "Signature" and "Emerging". How do I have it show like that in Admin?


This is my filter:


list_filter = ('app_complete', 'app_type')


app_type is the field I want to change how the field values show to filter 
on.

Setting a crispy form label from a db model field

[Brad Rice]

I'm using Crispy forms for an app that I created. I want to have the labels 
for the form come from a db entry. Is there a way, and how would you set 
the label using a model-view variable?

Index(View) rendering template instead of view

[Brad Rice]

So I have a RedirectView.as_view() going to a page in an app called web.

In the app web this is my view:

class Index(View):

def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
return HttpResponse('Hello, World!')

However, instead of showing that, when I get redirected to the app it shows 
my base template and index template even though I have not specified them 
in my Index view. It appears my url is not hitting the view.

Here is my urls.py in web: 

from django.conf.urls import *
import os
from .views import Index, gallery

urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^$', Index.as_view(), name='index'),
url(r'^gallery', gallery, name='gallery'),
)

Here is the website: www.lodiharrisvillehistorical.org

notice it going to /web but not echoing out Hello, World!

also notice gallery is working and finding the view.

Why is it not picking up the Index view and instead displaying a template 
with no context?

Re: RedirectView()

[Brad Rice]

OK, thanks. I had added that. I was just putting the url to the particular 
file in place. This is my whole urls.py at the top: So you are saying don't 
add the line that includes the web.urls?

urlpatterns = patterns('',

url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
url(r'^$', RedirectView.as_view(url='/web/', permanent=False)),
url(r'^web/', include('web.urls', namespace='web'),
)
)

Then this is the web urls.py

urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^$', IndexView.as_view(), name='index'),
url(r'^gallery', gallery, name='gallery'),
)

RedirectView()

[Brad Rice]

I'm using RedirectView and it is redirecting to my app, but is not
rendering the view in the app I am pointing to.

I want to redirect my root / to my app /web

I have this in my primary app urls:

url(r'^$', RedirectView.as_view(url='/web/', permanent=False)),

I have this in web.urls.py

url(r'^$', IndexView.as_view(), name='index'),

I have his in my web.vews.py

class Index(View):

def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
return HttpResponse('Hello, World!')

when I go to / I do get redirected to /web/ but I get a index.html template
display rather than Hello World. It isn't finding my Index(View) class for
some reason.

Can anybody explain to me how this should work?

Re: Class Based Views tutorials

[Brad Rice]

When I was working with formsets, it seemed to me best to just use a single 
UpdateView with post and get functions defined rather than having a 
separate CreateView class. Seemed to handle both create and update ok.

Class Based Views tutorials

[Brad Rice]

Does anyone have a recommendation for intermediate reading to understand 
Class Based Views? It seems most of the Django books were written when 
function based views were prevalent. I'm still having trouble understanding 
what the differences are between CreateView and UpdateView and what Meta is 
as well as slug_field and pk. Perhaps my issue is understanding Object 
oriented python? I wish there were some tutorials or cookbooks that offer 
better understanding.

Re: control attributes on form fields in formset

[Brad Rice]

Ah, found it on the django read the docs site. This is what I did in my 
inline formset factory

BookFormset = inlineformset_factory(Author, Book, extra=3, max_num=3, 
widgets={'name': forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'u-full-width'})})

control attributes on form fields in formset

[Brad Rice]

When I do a model form I can control the fields with attributes using 

name = 
forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'u-full-width'}))

How do I do something like that in an inline formset? I don't see where I 
can set attributes.

Re: CBV with inline formset

[Brad Rice]

Thanks. I think I figured out how to do this with a straight createView.

class BookCreate(CreateView):
model = Book
form_class = BookForm
template_name = 'book_template.html'
success_url = u'/dp/thanks'

def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
self.object = None
form_class = self.get_form_class()
author = Author.objects.get(id=self.kwargs['author_id'])
formset = BookFormset(instance=author)
return self.render_to_response(self.get_context_data(formset=formset))

def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
self.object = None
form_class = self.get_form_class()
author = Author.objects.get(id=self.kwargs['author_id'])
formset = BookFormset(request.POST,request.FILES,instance=author)
if formset.is_valid():
formset.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('dp:thanks'))

def form_valid(self, formset):
context = self.get_context_data()
book_formset = context['formset']
if book_formset.is_valid():
# self.object = book_formset.save()
book_formset.instance = self.object
book_formset.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect(self.get_success_url())
else:
return 
self.render_to_response(self.get_context_data(formset=book_formset))

CBV with inline formset

[Brad Rice]

I've pretty much butchered the code for 3 days now and cannot figure out 
how to insert an inline formset. Can anybody help me?

I've tried to pare everything down to use two simple Models just to try to 
get an insert. I'm using django Author - Book relationship to keep it 
simple.

class Author(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)

def __unicode__(self):  # __unicode__ on Python 2
return self.name


class Book(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
author = models.ForeignKey(Author)

So I have a page where you can insert and author. The author page takes you 
to a page to insert books for that author using an inline formset of 3 
books.

In my urls.py I have this url url(r'^book_create/(?P\d+)/$', 
BookCreate.as_view(), name='book_create'),

When you go to book_create I can see the author_id getting passed in the 
kwargs. Now how to I insert from there books into the db with the Foreign 
Key to that author passed in the kwargs?

After banging away for so long, I decided to try to switch to django extra 
views. this is what I have in my views.py

class BookCreate(InlineFormSetView):
model = Author
inline_model = Book
form_class = BookForm
extra = 3
template_name = 'book_template.html'

def get_queryset(self):
slug = self.kwargs['author_id']
return super(BookCreate, self).get_queryset().filter(id=slug)

When I go to the book_create page I get this error:

Generic detail view BookCreate must be called with either an object pk or a 
slug.

modelformst save

[Brad Rice]

For the life of me I can't figure out how to use a modelformset with class 
view. I get it to display but it won't save. Also, when it goes into 
form_invalid, it doesn't display the 3 formsets. Can anyone shed a little 
light? 

I'm using crispy forms with this in my template:

{% crispy reference_form referencehelper %}

This is my model

class Reference(models.Model):
ref_name = models.CharField(max_length=256)
ref_phone = models.CharField(max_length=20, 
validators=[RegexValidator(regex='\(?([0-9]{3})\)?([ .-]?)([0-9]{3})([ 
.-]?)([0-9]{4})', message='Looks like your phone number is not formatted 
correctly', code='Invalid number')])
ref_email = models.EmailField(max_length=256)
created_by = models.ForeignKey(User, unique=True)
applicant = models.ForeignKey("Applicant")
application = models.ForeignKey("Application")

This is my form.py form

class ReferenceForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Reference
exclude = ('created_by', 'application', 'applicant')

def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(ReferenceForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)


class ReferenceFormSetHelper(FormHelper):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(ReferenceFormSetHelper, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.form_method = 'post'
self.layout = Layout(
Fieldset('Reference',
'ref_name',
'ref_phone',
'ref_email',
))
self.add_input(Submit("submit", "Save"))



ReferenceFormSet = modelformset_factory(Reference, form=ReferenceForm, 
extra=3, max_num=3, can_delete=True)

This is my view:

class ReferenceCreate(LoginRequiredMixin, CreateView):
model = Reference
form_class = ReferenceForm
template_name = 'requestform/reference_form.html'

def dispatch(self, *args, **kwargs):
return super(ReferenceCreate, self).dispatch(*args, **kwargs)

def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
"""
Handles GET requests and instantiates blank versions of the form
and its inline formsets.
"""
self.object = None
form_class = self.get_form_class()
form = self.get_form(form_class)
reference_form = ReferenceFormSet()
refhelper = ReferenceFormSetHelper()
return self.render_to_response(
self.get_context_data(
  reference_form=reference_form,
  referencehelper=refhelper
  ))

def form_valid(self, form):
"""
Called if all forms are valid. Creates a Recipe instance along with
associated Ingredients and Instructions and then redirects to a
success page.
"""
self.object = form.save()
reference_form.instance = self.object
reference_form.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('requestform:app_check', 
kwargs={'app_id': obj.application_id}))


def form_invalid(self, reference_form):
refhelper = ReferenceFormSetHelper()
return self.render_to_response(self.get_context_data(
  reference_form=reference_form,
  referencehelper=refhelper
  ))

Re: Alternative to fabric

[Brad Pitcher]

I agree Ansible is a good fit for your situation. Since Ansible works from
yaml files, you don't have to write any Python 2.x compatible code as you
would with Fabric.

If you want to simply disable logging, you could try setting the LOG_LEVEL

try, except problem

[Brad Rice]

I'm trying to write a try: except: to check for three things. First I want 
to check if an application has already been filled out, thus, check for 
existence. Second if it has been filled out a flag that is is complete is 
set to true. Then the else would be neither of those things, they need to 
create a new app.

This is what I have started with:

class Main(TemplateView):
# app_started = Application.objects.get(created_by=request.user)
@method_decorator(login_required(login_url='/accounts/login/'))
def dispatch(self, *args, **kwargs):
try:
app = Application.objects.get(created_by=self.request.user)
# if it is true check for if the app is set to complete
except app.DoesNotExist:
app = None
return 
HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('requestform:registrant_create'))
else:
return 
HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('requestform:registrant_update'))

I keep getting this error:

local variable 'app' referenced before assignment


Why would app not be not be set if it is in the try statement?


How would I check if it does exist, to then check if the flag is true?


I'm sort of a Django newbie and this portion of the code I am writing is 
really mystifying me.

I wrote an app that allows people to login to fill out an application. It 
has quite a few text areas that have to be filled out, so the idea was to 
allow them to fill out partial and come back and work on it and eventually 
submit it. The last stage before submit I pull all the data into a final 
form and allow them to submit it if they are satisfied. It set's required 
on the fields at that stage. There are three related db tables (models). So 
maybe, I'm thinking about this wrong. Instead of having two or three forms 
on a single page, maybe I need to built one from from the three related 
models at the end.

Re: crispy forms two forms and context

[Brad Rice]

Here is my entire view class to go with a ModelForm. How do I get the 
various forms as context into my template?

class ApplicationVerify(UpdateView):
model = Answers
form_class = ApplicationCheckForm
template_name = 'requestform/application_detail.html'

@method_decorator(login_required(login_url='/accounts/login/'))
def dispatch(self, *args, **kwargs):
return super(ApplicationVerify, self).dispatch(*args, **kwargs)

def get_object(self, queryset=None):
return Answers.objects.get(created_by=self.request.user)

def form_valid(self, form):
obj = form.save(commit=False)
obj.created_by = self.request.user
obj.save()
a = Application.objects.get(created_by=self.request.user)
b = Answers.objects.get(created_by=self.request.user)
c = Applicant.objects.get(created_by=self.request.user)
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('requestform:app_complete', 
kwargs={'app_id': a.id}))


def get_context_data(self, **kwargs):
context = super(ApplicationVerify, self).get_context_data(**kwargs)
context['app'] = Application.objects.get(id=self.kwargs['app_id'])
context['answers'] = 
Answers.objects.get(created_by=self.request.user)
context['applicant'] = 
Applicant.objects.get(created_by=self.request.user)
return context

crispy forms two forms and context

[Brad Rice]

This document seems to indicate I can have two forms inside one set of form 
tags:

http://django-crispy-forms.readthedocs.org/en/latest/crispy_tag_forms.html#rendering-several-forms-with-helpers

I cannot figure out how to set the context to be able to iterate over both 
forms.

{% crispy form %}

works on my model form.

If I try to set context in my view like this:

def get_context_data(self, **kwargs):
context = super(ApplicationVerify, self).get_context_data(**kwargs)
context['app'] = Application.objects.get(id=self.kwargs['app_id'])
context['answers'] = 
Answers.objects.get(created_by=self.request.user)
context['applicant'] = 
Applicant.objects.get(created_by=self.request.user)
return context

and then use instead of crispy form

{% crispy answers %}

I get errors.

'Answers' object has no attribute 'fields'

How do I set a form to have context from several models?

I do see the context is coming into the template, it just is not treating 
them as having form widgets.

update a field of a related table on form save

[Brad Rice]

I have three tables. The first one is application which has a flag for if 
an app has been submitted as well as created date and modified date. The 
other two tables relate to the application table. I have two forms that get 
update those tables. What I want to do is update the application modified 
date from the save on the other forms.

I have this in the Application model
modified= models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)

but since it is the other tables I am saving to, I'm not sure how to update 
that field whenever the other two tables update.

My view for one of the forms looks like this:

class AnswersUpdate(UpdateView):
model = Answers
form_class = AnswersForm
slug_field = 'created_by'
template_name = 'requestform/applicant_form.html'

@method_decorator(login_required(login_url='/accounts/login/'))
def dispatch(self, *args, **kwargs):
return super(AnswersUpdate, self).dispatch(*args, **kwargs)

def get_object(self, queryset=None):
return Answers.objects.get(created_by=self.request.user)

def form_valid(self, form):
obj = form.save(commit=False)
obj.created_by = self.request.user
obj.save()
a = Application.objects.get(created_by=self.request.user)
   ## how do I save to the Application here?
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('requestform:app_check', 
kwargs={'app_id': obj.id}))

Any help would be appreciated.

Re: django 1.6.4 - markup / markdown (for django blog tutorial)

[Brad Pitcher]

django.contrib.markup has been deprecated. You could try using the
standalone project that is a copy of the same code from django:

pip install django_markup_deprecated

Then add "markup_deprecated" to your INSTALLED_APPS instead of
django.contrib.markup.

Re: Centos 6.5 Python 3.3.x Django 1.6 Apache 2.2

[Brad Pitcher]

What does your Apache vhost config look like? You will need to add a
WSGIDaemonProcess directive where you can specify the python path for the
virtual environment, like so:

WSGIDaemonProcess processname user=wsgi group=apache processes=1 threads=10
umask=0022 display-name=displayname
python-path=/data/app/guillem-py3-dj17-test/lib64/python3.3/site-packages/

Re: validate answers from a detail view

[Brad Rice]

What I am building is an app that the user can come back to to finish
filling out, so I don't want to have too many required fields until right
before they submit the form, I want to check if they forgot anything and
prompt them to fill it out. Now that I think about it, I can probably do
this with javascript on the detail view page. I suppose that is the route I
will take.

validate answers from a detail view

[Brad Rice]

I'm using a Class based Generic Detail View to show end users their answers 
to previous mulit-page forms. How can I use that final detail view to 
validate the answers? Should I not be using a Detail view or can I somehow 
do a conditional get to the next view based upon those answers? Right now I 
just have a link to the next page where they can submit all their answers 
from the forms. If they haven't filled out a field, I want to take them 
back to the form they need to go to to fix that. All it does on that final 
page after the datail is set a true value in the db that they are done 
updating their application form.

Re: Do you think Django's future is threatened by JS frameworks in both client & server?

[Brad Moore]

The tech giants are pushing JavaScript more than Python these days. 
 JavaScript is said to be the future language for enterprise applications. 
I think Python will be around but will play a third place role behind 
JavaScript and PHP. Yes, I said PHP and I apologize but its true just look 
at the cloud support that is quietly being offered for PHP. I have used PHP 
extensively and it can be very good and very bad depending on the 
developer. .NET is terrible I almost quit an IT career before it started 
because we were forced to use Visual Studio and Microsoft technologies for 
web development in college. My opinion as long as good design principles 
are followed using an MVC approach all three are good choices. Python is 
not going to go away because it is being used to teach the next generation 
of computer scientists throughout the world. Get used to { } all over the 
place or just stick with Python and Django it will not matter.

Re: Save to User table first_name and last_name from a page with a different form

[Brad Rice]

I think I figured it out. The user is on the reuqest so it was pretty easy.

def form_valid(self, form):
obj = form.save(commit=False)
obj.created_by = self.request.user
obj.application_id = self.kwargs['app_id']
u = self.request.user
u.last_name = obj.last_name;
u.first_name = obj.first_name;
obj.save()
u.save()
#reverse_lazy = lambda name=answers, *args : lazy(reverse, 
str)(name, args=args)
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('requestform:answers', 
kwargs={'app_id': obj.application_id}))

I have a registration and login page that only takes username and password. 
After they register or login, they are taken to a profile form where they 
can provide additional information such as address and phone numbers. I'm 
using a Model Form CreateView there. On that page I want the First Name and 
Last Name fields to  save to the auth_user table rather than that Profile

NoReverseMatch error on redirect

[Brad Rice]

I have a mulit-page form I am building. I get the start page to enter the 
data for the application, validate and save. When I try using reverse to 
move to the next page I get this error:

NoReverseMatch at /requestform/start/Reverse for 'registrant_add' with 
arguments '()' and keyword arguments '{'app_id': 11}' not found.

I have this url in my urls.py

url(r'^step1/(?P\d+)/$, RegistrantCreate.as_view(), 
name="registrant_add"),

I am trying to call the view this way:

class ApplicationCreate(CreateView):
model = Application
form_class = ApplicationForm
slug_field = 'created_by'
template_name = 'requestform/start_form.html'

@method_decorator(login_required)
def dispatch(self, *args, **kwargs):
return super(ApplicationCreate, self).dispatch(*args, **kwargs)


def form_valid(self, form):
obj = form.save(commit=False)
obj.created_by = self.request.user
obj.created = datetime.datetime.today()
obj.modified = datetime.datetime.today()
obj.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('registrant_add', 
kwargs={'app_id': obj.id}))

Why doesn't django recognize the named url 'registrant_add' and redirect to 
it?

using success_url

[Brad Rice]

I can't seem to find success using success_url

If I try this in my urls.py file

url(r'^step2/', AnswersCreate.as_view(success_url='/requestform/success'), 
name='answers'),

and then in my view:

def form_valid(self, form):
obj = form.save(commit=False)
obj.created_by = self.request.user
obj.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect(self.get_success_url())

I get a successful save but it does not take me to the next url defined in 
success_url

Is there another way to do it, or what am I doing wrong?

Re: saving to two models from one class view

[Brad Rice]

Thanks for the help.

I've modified the Applicant model:

class Application(models.Model):
app_complete = models.BooleanField(default=False)
applicant = models.ForeignKey('Applicant', unique=True)
created_by = models.ForeignKey(User, related_name='+')

There is really no data being entered by the end user, I just want to 
create a row with the application_id (auto generated), user, a relation to 
the applicant table and the default value of false in the app_complete 
field. When I fill out the form and post I still get Validation Errors on 
the related formset.

[u'ManagementForm data is missing or has been tampered with']

My template is simple:

{% extends "base.html" %}
{% block title %}Add Applicant Information{% endblock %}
{% block head %}Add Applicant Information{% endblock %}
{% block content %}

{% csrf_token %}

{{ form.as_p }}

{{ application_form.management_form }}
{{ application_form.non_form_errors }}


{% endblock %}

I'm really feeling the newbie moniker.

saving to two models from one class view

[Brad Rice]

I have been banging around trying to write to two models from one view for 
a couple days and just cannot figure it out.

I am using a CreateView. I want to write to a model with just the 
created_by user and a default value of False in app_complete to. I'm 
getting this error:

[u'ManagementForm data is missing or has been tampered with']

Could anyone help me figure out how to save to two models from a class view?

Models I'm trying to save to:

class Application(models.Model):
app_complete = models.BooleanField(default=False)
created_by = models.ForeignKey(User, unique=True)


class Applicant(models.Model):
first_name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
last_name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
title = models.CharField(max_length=100)
... more fields

My forms view:

class RegistrantForm(forms.ModelForm):
ADDRESS_CHOICES = (('home', 'Home',), ('business', 'Business',))
address_type = forms.ChoiceField(
choices=ADDRESS_CHOICES, widget=forms.Select
)
street2 = forms.CharField(required=False)
cell_phone = forms.CharField(required=False)
fax_phone = forms.CharField(required=False)

class Meta:
model = Applicant
fields = ('first_name', 'last_name', 'title', 'years_at_job', 
'street1', 'street2', 'city', 'state', 'zip', 'address_type', 'residence', 
'phone', 'cell_phone',
  'fax_phone')
exclude = ['created_by']   # Will be taken from the request

class ApplicationForm(forms.ModelForm):
app_complete = forms.BooleanField(required=True, label="Check this to 
confirm the application is complete.")

class Meta:
model = Application
fields = ('app_complete', 'created_by')


ApplicationFormSet = inlineformset_factory(Application, Applicant)

Then my view which doesn't work:

class RegistrantCreate(CreateView):
model = Applicant
form_class = RegistrantForm
template_name = 'applicant_form.html'
success_url = '/requestform/update2/'

@method_decorator(login_required)
def dispatch(self, *args, **kwargs):

Admin permissions for proxy ModelAdmins?

[Brad Smith]

Hello all, 

I want to have multiple admin interfaces for editing the same model under 
different circumstances. The way I've been doing this is to register 
multiple proxy models, each with their own ModelAdmins. However, the proxy 
models don't seem to generate permissions, so they don't show up in the 
admin interface for non-superusers. The fact that they do show up for 
superusers suggests that there's a way to make them available to others, 
but I'm having trouble figuring out how.

Based on things I've read since I came up with this plan, it's sounding 
like a better way to do what I'm trying to do would be to override 
change_view() on a single ModelAdmin anyway, but I'm still curious about 
the above, in case it ever becomes relevant again (and, while I'm at it, a 
sanity-check on my suspicion that the change_view approach is indeed the 
more appropriate solution would be nice!).

Thanks!
--Brad

Re: Using admin views "outside" of admin

[Brad Smith]

...and of course now I find a FAQ item that seems to talk about exactly 
what I want to do:

  
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/faq/admin/#how-do-i-limit-admin-access-so-that-objects-can-only-be-edited-by-the-users-who-created-them

I'm still curious to hear comments, though, because if this is possible 
then I'm no longer clear what the conventional wisdom is regarding when and 
how to use AdminSite vs when it's time to buckle down and write your own 
interface. 

While I'm at it, and possibly related to the above, ultimately what I'd 
like to be able to do is load and submit editing forms from within the view 
interface via AJAX (ie click an icon on an object and the regular content 
is replaced with the corresponding admin edit form).  It looks like you can 
add '_popup=1' to any admin url and get something that could work 
reasonably well for embedding, and then you'd just need some javascript to 
cause the submit button to use e.g. jQuery.post()... right? 

Any tips/warnings with regard to this?

Re: Using admin views "outside" of admin

[Brad Smith]

Thanks for the reply! The main thing I'm looking for is the ability to 
create more granular permissions. For example, I want only the person who 
creates an instance of something (plus a few admins) the be able to modify 
that instance. I talk about working "outside" the admin interface because 
my understanding from other threads I've read is that the admin is designed 
on the assumption that everyone either has admin privileges or doesn't on a 
per-class (as opposed to per-object) basis, and if you want more than that 
you're going to have to build your own editing interface. 

Of course, what I'd love to hear is that I have this all wrong and there's 
an easy way to implement the concept of object ownership, custom 
permissions, etc in the existing admin interface. I guess subclassing 
AdminSite could be a start to this, but at least at first glanceI don't see 
anything in the docs about replacing or extending the access control 
mechanism. Anyone have advice along those lines?

Thanks again!

Using admin views "outside" of admin

[Brad Smith]

Hello all,

Based on other threads I've read here, it seems that the conventional 
wisdom is that the admin interface is only for low-level access to the 
database, and isn't designed for anything "fancy", like users with 
different levels of administrative rights within an app, etc. Ok, I get 
that, but if I may grasp at some straws briefly I'd like to ask one 
follow-up that I haven't seen answered elsewhere: my app has a bunch of 
objects with complicated relationships for which I've devised a reasonably 
pretty and intuitive editing interface using Django's admin and Grappelli. 
Since this took a nontrivial amount of effort, I wanted to ask here if 
there are any tricks I should know about for re-using *any* views, inlines, 
etc from that admin interface in a more integrated editing interface with 
granular access controls, or do I just need to suck it up and rewrite 
everything from scratch using regular Django forms?

Thanks to anyone who can offer some advice.

Re: How do I create a standalone python application that uses the django environment (e.g. the ORM etc...)?

[Brad Pitcher]

To make my code work, you could set DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE to
'my_project.settings', and just put formdesigner.py directly under
my_project.

If you wanted to keep formdesigner.py where it is, you would want to change
the sys.path.append line to this:

sys.path.append(os.path.join(os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__)),
'..'))

You need to do something like this before import django stuff:

import os
import sys

sys.path.append(os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__)))
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'web.settings'

Re: Possible Basic kwargs question.

[Brad Pitcher]

I see what you're saying. Maybe you're looking for something more like this?

def method1(self, param1=sensible_default, param2=sensible_default,
param3=sensible_default):
print param1, param2, param3

The variable names must be specified in the method arguments like above if
you wish to reference them by name inside the method itself. With this
method, you will also need to call it with: model.method1(**params)

Re: django-social-auth problem with facebook

[Brad Pitcher]

In my experience, that particular error always means that the database
doesn't match what you have in your models. Try a syncdb and/or check your
south migrations to make sure your database is up to date.

Implementing query with Django ORM - left join with length() and replace() functions

[Brad Buran]

 I'm trying to replicate a query using Django's ORM; however, I'm having a 
bit of difficulty figuring out how to accomplish it.  The model that I'm 
querying is defined as:

class Word(models.Model):

objects = WordManager()
spelling = models.CharField(max_length=128)
ipa = models.CharField(max_length=128)

The query I'm trying to accomplish:

SELECT 
a.id, a.spelling, a.ipa
b.spelling as b_spelling, b.ipa as b_ipa
FROM 
dictionary_word as a, dictionary_word as b 
WHERE
a.ipa != b.ipa
and length(a.ipa) = length(b.ipa)
and a.ipa = replace(b.ipa, '%s', '%s')

The idea of this query is to find all pairs of words that differ by one 
phoneme (e.g. "mat" and "bat" differ by only one sound).  Is this query 
possible to accomplish with the ORM, or do I need to use a raw query?

Thanks,
Brad

Re: Can't store valid JSON in JSONField because of SubfieldBase/to_python issues

[Brad Jasper]

I ended up moving this to the Django bug tracker thinking it was an issue 
with Django itself: https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/20090

Someone over there pointed me in the right direction: You need to subclass 
SubfieldBase and call your own method instead of to_python. You can pass 
the custom ModelField along with the value and check the state that way. 
This seems to have solved my problem pretty well.

For an example, check out what we used on 
django-jsonfield: 
https://github.com/bradjasper/django-jsonfield/blob/master/jsonfield/subclassing.py

Re: Upgrade to django 1.5

[Brad Pitcher]

It should be safe, just test things out. Also, if you have DEBUG=False you
must also include an ALLOWED_HOSTS array, which became required in Django
1.4.4:
https://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2013/feb/19/security/#s-issue-host-header-poisoning

It should contain a list of domains used to access the site.

If this is the actual syntax you used, then my best guess is that the
problem is that you are passing a class rather than an instanciated
object and those aren't class methods. Either instanciate an object or
remove the "self" arguments to make those class methods and it should
work.

Re: How do I get the current user in a model?

[Brad]

Sounds like you are maybe calling a user method from a template? You
will probably want to create a custom tag or filter:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/howto/custom-template-tags/

A filter would look like this:
{{ my_model_item|price:request.user }}

And the filter itself something like this:

def price(my_model_item, user):
"""Returns the price for the user"""
# Logic to evaluate the price could be here on in a
# model method, but if it's in the model method you
# will need to pass the user as a parameter to that
# method.
return evaluated_price

Re: Collectstatic not working

[Brad]

The problem is that you have your STATIC_ROOT as one of the
STATICFILES_DIRS. The STATIC_ROOT directory should be empty, that is
where all the static files from different places will be gathered when
you run collectstatic. You should probably create a static directory
under the myapp directory and move all your static files there. Leave
the STATIC_ROOT setting as you have it now, and don't specify
STATICFILES_DIRS. By default django looks in static directories under
all apps in INSTALLED_APPS.

Re: Why i can't get the debug informations (in case of error) when i run LiveServerTestCase tests?

[Brad]

I admit it is vexing that Django overrides what you have specified in
the settings file in this case, but it doesn't seem to be hard to
override. I simply added "settings.DEBUG = True" to the beginning of the
"setUp" function for the test class and that seems to do the trick.
Btw, I see tracebacks in the console when a page has errors while
running tests, don't you? Maybe that's a feature of django-nose, which I
am using, I don't know.

It can be surprising sometimes what code can cause other code to get
imported and run. My guess is, in trying to find your url route there,
Django looks through ntw.urls. When it sees 'receipts' it imports
ntw.checkout.views to see if that view is there. Suffice it to say,
Django is trying to run the code in ntw\checkout\views.py and it would
be a good idea to make it work.

Django gives you the line in the file where the error occurs so you
don't need to track it down ;-)
It's probably failing when you try to import something in views.py.

Re: newbie needs to copy a record in admin to a new record

[Brad Pitcher]

I think what should work well for your use case is an admin action:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/ref/contrib/admin/actions/

You can write code for a copy action in admin.py. This will add a "copy"
item to the dropdown in the list view, so you can select any number of list
items and copy them.

Re: How to reference model instance fields dynamically

You can use python's setattr function to do this:

for k,v in fields.iteritems():
setattr(inst, k, v)

Re: Best way to detect if a user has changed password

[Brad Pitcher]

You could use a "pre_save" signal. kwargs['instance'] will contain the
updated record and you can get the old record with "User.objects.get(id=
user.id) if user.pk else None". I've done this in the past to check for a
changed email address.

Re: static files

[Brad Pitcher]

I believe the best way of doing this is to have your image(s) in
static/images and your css in static/css.  Then you can use a relative URL
to set the background image like so:

background-image : url("../images/PAE.jpg")

It's better not to have any CSS mixed in with your HTML anyway.

Re: I can't install django on my mac. I'm not sure why. Details inside.

[Brad Pitcher]

I can't speak authoritatively on this, since that's not how it installs in
Linux, but in my understanding the contents of the django.pth file should
be the directory django has been installed to. Check the contents of that
file to see if everything is in order.
An alternative to this is to update PYTHONPATH to point to the folder
django is installed to. A quick test on Mac OSX would look like:
PYTHONPATH=/location/of/django python -c "import django;
print(django.get_version())"
and you could make it more permanent by adding
PYTHONPATH=/location/of/django to your ~/.profile
In windows, you may need to look at your environment variable settings.

Re: I can't install django on my mac. I'm not sure why. Details inside.

The question is, is django inside one of those directories? It should
probably be installed to C:\Python27\lib\site-packages so there would be a
C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\django directory. Is it there?

Re: Django hosting

[Brad Montgomery]

I've been using rackspace's Cloud servers.  They give you a nice platform 
and charge only for what you use (so low-traffic sites end up being very 
affordable). 

However, you should play close attention to a service 
like https://gondor.io/ - it's an extremely easy-to-use service that makes 
hosting django projects almost trivial.

Re: [ask for help] how to solve this issue: "DatabaseError at /admin/myapp, no such column: myapp.myvar"

[brad]

It sounds like you may have created your Models, run "mange.py syncdb", then 
added another field to your Model.

Remember, syncdb doesn't add new columns in your table when you add a new 
field to an existing model.  If this app is still in development, you can 
drop the whole table corresponding to that model and run syncdb again.

You should also consider looking at south (http://south.aeracode.org/). It 
provides migration tools that let you add columns to existing models via a 
managment command.

Django Donations App

[Brad Reardon]

Heya django-users,

I have been working on a website for a client, and they are in need of
an app that is for donations. Being no PayPal IPN-processing expert, I
unfortunately do not know how to program an app that would display the
names and amounts of the donations received. I have checked out django-
donation, found on Launchpad, but it doesn't seem to perform the way I
would like.

If you would, could you guys provide me with a link to an app that
does the functions I require? If not, documentation on the PayPal API
would be nice, so that I could process the requests.

One more thing; instead of the name of the person that had donated
that PayPal provides, I would like for them to be able to input an
alias.

Thanks!
Brad Reardon

Re: default_if_none as settings (??)

If I understand correctly, then the solution would be to do something of
this sort: (pardon the formatting)

if value:
{{value}}
else:

Something of that sort *should* work, although I am not entirely sure.

Re: django-admin.py startproject not working

[Brad Reardon]

Another tip is to add *.py to the PATHEXT variable or the like. That will allow 
the script to be found on the path. I'm not sure if that's the right variable 
name, but check it out.

Also, if you DO choose to pass JSON back to your client, you should

Re: Updating a video rating using AJAX

[brad]

Why?  If you're building a web app, you should use HTTP to for the
client to communicate with the app (AJAX is just another form of that
communication).

You're almost there, though, because your function is pretty close to
a view:

def save_rating(request, video_id, rating):
if request.is_ajax():
# the rest of your code...

json_content = '{"rating":"%s"}' % video.rating
return HttpResponse(json_content, mimetype='application/json')

Just be sure to return some sort of data that your client-side
javascript can interpret, such as JSON (of which I've given you an
untested example).

Re: problem reversing namespaced URL (application instance not recognized?)

[Brad Buran]

Problem solved.  I misunderstood the Django docs on URL namespacing and was
trying to take a shortcut by passing a 3-tuple rather than explicitly naming
the arguments to include.  Instead of include('test.wiki.urls', 'wiki',
'help') I should have been doing include('test.wiki.urls', app_name='wiki',
namespace='help').

Sorry for the trouble,
Brad

problem reversing namespaced URL (application instance not recognized?)

[Brad Buran]

I'm trying to reuse a wiki app twice in my project; however, whenever I call
the reverse function, it returns the URL of the first instance defined in my
urls.conf.  I have attempted specifying the view name as
app_instance:view_name, app_name:view_name as well as using the current_app
keyword of the reverse function.  I have not had any luck so far and was
hoping for suggestions on what I'm doing wrong.  I've only posted the
relevant parts of the code.

Per the Django documentation on namespacing, I have set up my top-level URLs
conf as:

...
(r'help/', include('test.wiki.urls', 'wiki', 'help'), {'wiki': 'help'}),
(r'learn/wiki/', include('test.wiki.urls', 'wiki', 'learn'), {'wiki':
'learn'}),
...

In my wiki app, the urls.conf has

url(r'^(?P[-\w]+)/$', 'test.wiki.views.display',
name='wiki_page_detail'),
url(r'^(?P[-\w]+)/404$', direct_to_template, {'template':
'wiki/page_404.html'}, name='wiki_page_404')

Finally, in my display view function (note that this uses the wiki keyword
defined in the top-level urls.conf to know which :

def display(request, wiki, slug):
try:
wiki = models.Wiki.objects.get_or_create(wiki)
page = models.Page.objects.get(wiki=wiki, slug=slug)
except models.Page.DoesNotExist:
url = reverse('%s:wiki_page_404' % wiki.title, kwargs={'slug':
slug}, current_app=wiki.title)
return HttpResponseRedirect(url)

Brad

Sorting related model

[Brad Buran]

Given the following two models forming the base of a wiki-style app:

class Page(models.Model):
current_revision = models.IntegerField()

class PageContent(models.Model):
page = models.ForeignKey(Page)
revision = models.IntegerField()
created = models.DateTimeField()

Here, we have a canonical Page object with a current_revision that always
points to the most current revision, stored in PageContent.  How can I
construct a Page queryset, ordered by the Pages that have the most
recently-created PageContent?

Currently, what I am doing is:

qs =
PageContent.objects.filter(revision=F('page__current_revision')).order_by('created').select_related()
pages = [content.page for content in qs]

This works fine, but is there a more straightforward way to do this?

Thanks,
Brad

Re: best practice for widget that edits multiple model fields

[Brad Buran]

<<Sorry, last post was incomplete.  Accidentally hit send while composing.>>

Hi Scott:

Thank you for the suggestion.  I reviewed the docs, and it appears like it
could work but would restrict the functionality.  For example, I would have
to somehow serialize two datetime types plus a boolean type into a single
database column.  This would take away a lot of advantages (such as being
able to filter based on only one of the datetimes).

One other option I am exploring is simply doing:

class DateRange(Model):
start = DateTimeField()
end = DateTimeField()
all_day = BooleanField()

# subclass DateRange so we can reuse it in various models
class EventDateRange(DateRange):
date = ForeignKey(Event)

class Event(Model):
#various other fields required for event

Does this seem like it would make more sense?

Thanks,
Brad

best practice for widget that edits multiple model fields

[Brad Buran]

I have a group of fields (date_start, date_end, all_day) that I would like
to reuse in several models.  I've defined a MultiWidget that displays two
split datetime fields plus a checkbox (for the all_day toggle).  However,
I'm not sure how to get the MultiWidget to set the value of these three
fields in the model.  If I understand correctly, a MultiWidget can only set
the value of a single model field.  Hence, I would need to create some sort
of field (e.g. "combined_date_info") that MultiWidget saves the serialized
data from these three form fields.  Once I have done this, then I would use
model.save() to deserialize the data in the combined_date_info field and
save it to the appropriate model fields.

This solution seems a bit hackish and not very DRY.  Are there better
approaches?

Re: File Upload with Progress Bar

[Brad Pitcher]

Some versions of flash have a bug that causes the entire browser to
freeze while uploading.  I am afflicted by the bug, running Flash 10.0
r45 on Ubuntu 10.04.  It seems that there is no good solution at the
moment.  My host is Webfaction and I just discovered that they have a
non-configurable nginx server in front of everything that caches
uploads before sending them on to apache/django making it impossible
to do upload progress bars at the moment.  They are aware of the
problem, but who knows when it will be fixed.

Re: File Upload with Progress Bar

[Brad Pitcher]

Whoops!  Just read that the django dev server is not multithreaded so
it will not work.  But you should be able to use any web server along
with an upload_progress view as long as your web server streams the
upload in progress to django.  I think my troubles may be because the
web server isn't streaming the file upload to django, I'm currently
investigating that.
