is installing jupyterthemes safe?

Hi there,

Just a curiosity - I get extreme strain and headaches from looking at monitors for to long so I installed juptyerthemes to enable darkmode since its not already a thing. Everything I could find didnt give a definite answer as to whether it was malicious or not...

Flask as an international language

I basically only speak English, yet oddly enough this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIODSMgqHIE) helped me actually understand the 'unittest' module. I think he's speaking Swedish?

Edit DB

Best approach to edit DB in production? For instance in case of a new group of users to register? I usually write a .py file using Alembic, but maybe there is a better approach. Writing raw SQL is not great I think, as I have many columns using SQLAlchemy's "default" param, so they would not be automatically set by raw SQL queries.

Where is self.client inherited from?

The [official documentation](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/topics/testing/tools/#default-test-client) states:

> Every test case in a django.test.*TestCase instance has access to an instance of a Django test client. This client can be accessed as self.client.

And sure enough, this works. But:

from django.test import TestCase

dir(TestCase)

returns no method called "client".

Where is self.client inherited from?

validate value calculated from another field

i need to validate a field in django admin.

the field is calculated based upon a value of another field.

i've tried several solutions but none could work like i intended, for example:

1. i calculated the value before saving and then raise a validation error but i didn't manage to make the error pop inside the form (as a red string like the validator already build inside django)
2. i tried to use a validator already build in but i didn't know how to reference the other field inside the validator. ** this would be the ideal solution since its the cleanest**
3. i tried to manipulate the admin form to validate the value but the value is not yet calculated in there as far as i know. in this attempt i also tried to make the field of interest ( the one that get calculated) as a property using a decorator so it would be calculated before validation

what i am trying to achieve is to create a Trade model where i insert the amount of capital to invest and the risk per share i want to take. the idea come from this blog. basically i'm trying to replicate the functionality of the Money

How I deploy my bootstrapped Python webapp with 150k monthly users

I am a one-man show building a web-based software product. Some quick facts about my app:

Written in Python Flask
150k visitors per month
15k registered users
3k US$ revenue per month
70 requests per second at peak-time

This is a technical post looking at the infrastructure that runs my app with a focus on how I deploy it.

## Summary

I use 2 VPS (virtual private servers) running on DigitalOcean
The database is Postgres and is fully managed by DigitalOcean
I use a blue-green deployment
Deployment is done via `git` and `ssh`.
No CI/CD
No containers
Absolutely no Kubernetes

I am a strong advocate of using "boring technology". I am also the only developer of the app, which makes many things simpler.

## The application infrastructure

The app is a CRUD monolith that is deployed as one artefact. I use nginx and gunicorn to serve the app.

The app runs on 2 virtual private servers, one of which is the production server, the other of which is the staging server. During deployment, they switch roles. This is a so-called blue-green deployment, more on that later.

I'm using a DigitalOcean droplet with 8 shared CPUs, 16GB of memory and 80 GB of storage for each server.

Does some CSS work differently in Django?

I have this CSS. It works fine when I use it for a regular site from just plain HTML and CSS. When I use this with my Django template it acts differently. What I expect to happen is the navigation bar will be flush with the top of the screen. This happens with the plain HTML site. In Django, however there is a gap at the top where you can see the body of the page.

`* {`

`-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;`

`-moz-box-sizing: border-box;`

`box-sizing: border-box;`

`}`

​

`body {`

`margin-top: 90px;`

`background-color: lightgray;`

`}`

​

`.navi {`

`position: fixed;`

`height: 45px;`

`top: 0;`

`right: 0;`

`left: 0;`

`background-color: black;`

`color: white;`

`padding: 5px`

`}`

​

`.navi-link {`

`color: white;`

`text-decoration: none;`

`padding: 5px;`

`}`

Edit: Here is the HTML

In Django:

`{% load static %}`


`<!DOCTYPE html>`
`<html lang="en">`
`<head>`
`<meta charset="UTF-8">`
`<link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static 'css/style.css' %}">`
`</head>`
`<body>`
`<header>`
`{% include 'navi.html' %}`
`</header>`
`{% block content %}`


`{% endblock %}`


`</body>`
`</html>`

Regular HTML:

`<!DOCTYPE html>`

`<html lange='en'>`

`<head>`

`<meta charset='UTF-8'>`

`<title>Practice CSS</title>`

`<link rel='stylesheet' href='style.css'>`

`</head>`

`<body>`

`<header class='navi'>`



`<a class='navi-link' href='index.html'>Home</a>`

&#x200B;

`</header>`

How to modify POST data before it gets validated without throwing a ValueError exception?

I am trying to convert a date that is created by a frontend datetime library to a iso formatted date.

I do this using python's strptime function, which throws an exception if it can't format the date. I do this in my view and Django shows an exception page in that case, but I want Django to throw a normal ValidationError that can be seen in the frontend.

I tried writing a clean_date() function in my form to modify the date but Django's DateTimeField validator runs before clean_date() and so my code is never run.

Videos in HTML

Hello,

I am working on a project, and I am trying to get a video playing in the DOM but I am having lots of trouble.

I have done a lot of researching but I cannot find the actual problem. The videos I am trying to play are MP4 but I can convert them if needed.

Everything works fine in non-Chromium based browsers like Safari or FireFox. But in Chromium browsers, the video loads fine but anytime seeking is requested, the video restarts.

I have tried with the video controls in the browser as well as programmatically with JavaScript, both just jump to the beginning of the video.

Also, I do not know if this is supposed to happen, but in all browsers it makes three total requests.

Running Python Script Online

Hey Guys

I made a script and its running perfectly. The script logs in to a webpage and checks something after that it sends me an email. I used selenium for it.

Now is my question if there is a service where I can run this script like once a hour. Whats the best service to do this?

My first guess was to just use the win10 taskscheduler but it was not reliable.

How to use SageMath use Jupyter

However I am not sure if I have installed sagemath correctly and wasn’t sure how to setup it up so my notebooks can use sagemath. Any help or resources are greatly appreciated thanks!

D Any Python Code available for Visualizing Named-Entities and Relations?

I'm looking to visualize named-entities and relations over a very large set of documents and saving this in some external document (like a PDF or HTML file). Specifically, given that I have the document locations corresponding to the entities and relations, I am looking for something to label every entity with a specific color corresponding to its entity type and colored arrows corresponding to relation type between related entities. Is there any python code available to do this?

I tried generating a PDF using PyFPDF but it won't easily let me color individual words. For now, I am giving up on PyFPDF and trying to use python to generate HTML and CSS.


UPDATE: Turns out I can use PyFPDF to color individual words (using the write function rather than the cell/multicell functions). However, still trying to figure out how to draw arrows between words. Any suggestions for libraries that can do this easily would be appreciated!

Is there a way to use Store Magic across 2 Jupyter notebooks (one running Python & one running R)?

I built a platform for helping Django developer to find a new job.. and it's work pretty well !

Hey r/Django :),

I'm a freelance Django dev and I'm making some side projects (Big fan of the indie hacking movement)

My last one is a platform for helping Django developers to find a new job or a new freelance contract (https://www.djangotop.com).It's 100% free. I put it online 1 month ago and I already have 70 devs that are signed up :D (and 2 found a job !)

Do not hesitate to give feedback and if you are interested, create your profile ! It helps me to be able to bring back more traffic from companies interested in Django developers !
