Connecting Django API to a Django crud app. How?

Watched a tutorial in how to create an API with Django and created several APIs with this tool. Now the next step I am planning is to create a basic crud app using Django where I will have JavaScript within a JS template file perform very basic math which will take the user numeric value input from an input tag within a form. My question is since i never developed a full stack application. I am completely lost. I want for the backend (Django) to get the data from the user and store it onto a database SQLite3. As a beginner who has basic knowledge of the client side using HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript and very little knowledge with Django but only creating APIs. Can anyone give me a recommendation on what is the easiest way to create a crud app which calls an API? Should I allow Django to perform the math or is it ok to allow the client which is JavaScript to perform the math and have Django get and send to the database? Complete newbie! Thank you all.

Working on updating the PyDev debugger to use sys.monitoring... I just love my multi-monitor setup with LiClipse ;)

Ok, so, I'm updating the PyDev debugger to use sys.monitoring...Hopefully it'll land soon (I've been working on and off in it for a while and not that much is missing for a final release).

Now, I stopped to breath a little and I just realized I really like using LiClipse with multiple monitors.

Unable to connect to the local mysql database

I am trying to create a basic authentication framework for which I need to connect my flask app to a local mysql database, and my credentials seem to be correct as the pymsyql code below works and the localhost page renders the database contents correctly, however, the flasj_mysqldb code does not work and gives the error "error": "'NoneType' object has no attribute 'cursor'"
I have tried looking at different sources all of which say the database credentials might be a problem, but I know for sure that this is not the case. Any help is appreciated.

erroneous code:

from flaskmysqldb import MySQL

server = Flask(name)
server.config["MYSQLUSER"] = "superuser"
server.config"MYSQL_PASSWORD" = "superpass"
server.config"MYSQL_HOST" = "localhost"

Django Messages Vs HttpResponse message for Forms

I understand that messages are used to display after a page refresh but let's say you're using HTMX so there isn't a page refresh, would it still be ok to use messages rather than a HttpResponse to show a message or is there some sort of disadvantage of doing so?

I find messages to be a little cleaner than a simple HttpResonse for this case.

Example:

messages.add_message(self.request, messages.SUCCESS, "Thank you! We will get back to you as soon as possible.")

vs

return HttpResponse('<p class="success">Thank you! We will get back to you as soon as possible.</p>')

Django without using Models

I am pretty new to Django with 2-3 years of Python experience writing automation scripts for various tasks. I have read the documentation twice, but I am not sure if what I applied here is the best practice .

The use case is the following:

1. I want the user to be able to login-logout to my site ✅
2. I have create a basic web navigation using html ✅
3. I have created a django form that the user can supply 5 parameters and submit ✅
4. I am creating an item in a directory of my current app (e.g ./myapp/my_directory) ❓

Everything works fine while in development but I am just not sure if that is the best practice here. The worklfloaw on step 4 is that

1. I am creating a directory of let's say a car firm and then
2. subdirectories of their car models,
3. I save some pictures (.jpg) of each model
4. I zip the car firm's directory and delete the original directory
5. I provide a list of downloadable links for all the .zip files in that directory and my plan is to wipe the directory once per month so I doesn't occupy a

No changes detected with MAKEMIGRATION command after moving to new DataBase

Hello! I am Trying to Learn Database Setup and migrations in different Scenarios.

So this is what I did
1. Connected to the POSTGRES database on railway.app.
2. Ran first migration command for Django (after initiating project)
3. Removed the Entire DataBase on Railway (to see how Django responds)
4. Created a New Database again on the railway.app
5. Updated the variables for new DB credentials in Django
6. After Running the DEVELOPMENT server, I Found the Session Table Missing Error
7. Tried MAKE MIGRATIONS command, result (No changes detected)


So how Do you Deal with this Scenario, considering I have backed up the Data and I no need to worry about losing Data. How do I restore or reperform Migrations as this is not for app but the migrations which Django needs to Run the entire Project.

I'm running Django through docker and I want to make it live-update when a change is made to the project (templates included). Is it possible?

A possible way I found was through volumes and docker-compose, but it didn't work for me and I didn't fully understand how it worked.

I also found something along the lines of watchdog, but I don't think it works for a docker context

Any help is appreciated!

I made Arrest, a small utility to wrap your API calls from your Python application

Hey guys! I'm super excited to announce arrest. It is a small library that you can use to define the structure of the REST Apis your Python application will be interacting with. it provides a straightforward way to call the different routes in your API and additionally enriches them with Pydantic classes for data validation. And it is also backward compatible with pydantic@v1.10.13.

I would greatly appreciate your feedback and useful opinions/improvements on this. Here are the docs if you wanna check that out.

Thanks a lot!

Livestream PS5 or PC Gameplay into OpenCV

I wrote this script after surprisingly finding very little existing code online about capturing windows.

This script can be used to capture PlayStation 5 gameplay in real time into OpenCV for further image processing, or capture a game window on PC.

Along the way I found out that graphics is more complicated than I thought. Windows does not make it particularly easy to capture windows that are hardware accelerated, and most existing libraries do not work when the window goes off screen or is obscured. My script works with both with good performance!

This could be used to analyse the video for some event (using image/text detection), send a message, record some score, or even act as a master for a microcontroller robot (Arduino etc) operating the controller!

https://github.com/lorcan2440/View-PS5-Screen-Remote-Play

The repo contains a guide for how to set it up. If you'd like to use it and are having trouble just leave a comment here or raise an issue there and I'll try to help. I've also made a C++ implementation since most of the relevant functions are just calling from Windows DLLs so the conversion was easy. C++ will have slightly better performance but you need to set up OpenCV for C++ by yourself

I like this docstring from django source code

If found this:

"""
This module collects helper functions and classes that "span" multiple levels
of MVC. In other words, these functions/classes introduce controlled coupling
for convenience's sake.
"""

So nice.

Especially this line:

In other words, these functions/classes introduce controlled coupling
for convenience's sake
