select dropdown with infinite scroll

Hi, basically I'm trying to do a drop-down menu where all the option are filled with the info of the database, the problem is that there are so many options and the template crash, so I figured out using Ajax or pagination may work, but what i want is that the options work like an infinite scroll, so user see 10/15 options and while scrolling down more options appear, but it doesn't work. What can I do?

I've created a book which contains everything you need to know about Python

Hello Reddit!

I've created a Python book called "Your Journey to Fluent Python." This book is ideal for everyone who wants to learn programming, and even for those who are already at an intermediate or expert level.

Additionally, I have created a Discord server to gather our Python community! The book doesn't stretch the material you need to learn, and that's what I find lacking in other books.

I look forward to hearing your feedback! Put a star if you find it interesting and useful!

[Project] LLM based Python docs that never touches your original code

Documentation is tedious and time-consuming. I thought LLMs might be the answer, but they tend to hallucinate, inventing functions or misinterpret code. Not ideal when you're trying to document real, working code

So I built lmdocs. It can:

* Reference documentation from imported libraries 
* Guarantees that your original code is unchanged
* Work with OpenAI and lo¯cal LLMs

I'd love to get some feedback from other devs. If you're interested, you can check it out here: [https://github.com/MananSoni42/lmdocs](https://github.com/MananSoni42/lmdocs)

It's open source, so feel free to contribute or just let me know what you think.

Running Python in Web Browsers

Python is one of the world's most popular programming languages and the web is the most ubiquitous application platform. There are several projects which aim to enable Python to run in web browsers.

* [Brython](https://www.brython.info/) is an implementation of Python 3 written in JavaScript.
* [Skulpt](https://skulpt.org/) is an implementation of Python 2/3 written in JavaScript.
* [PyScript](https://pyscript.net/) is an implementation of Python 3 written in WebAssembly.
* [Transcrypt](https://www.reddit.com/r/VistaPython/) is a Python to JavaScript compiler - unfortunately, the project seems to have been abandoned.
* [Batavia](https://github.com/beeware/batavia) is a Python virtual machine written in JavaScript - unfortunately, the project seems to have been abandoned.

Finally, I have created [VistaPython](https://www.reddit.com/r/VistaPython/) which is also intended to run Python 3 in web browsers but by using a bytecode interpreter written in JavaScript.

Each design has strengths and weaknesses:

Both Brython and Skulpt use hand-written Python parsers which are difficult to maintain. VistaPython uses a parser generator, [Antlr](https://www.antlr.org/), to automatically generate the JavaScript code for the parser. The parser can be updated to match the latest Python version by simply running a script.

Also, both Brython and Skulpt generate JavaScript code which is then evaluated. In VistaPython, the compiler produces a "code object" which is then executed using the bytecode interpreter. The first approach will

A simple website scraper script

# Web Scraper Script

## What My Project Does

This project scrapes websites to extract and display titles and links of articles. It processes multiple websites in parallel, fetching and parsing content to provide a consolidated list of articles with their full URLs.

## Target Audience

Home users, researchers, and web enthusiasts who need to gather information from multiple websites quickly and efficiently.

## Features

- Parallel Processing: Uses ThreadPoolExecutor to fetch multiple websites concurrently, speeding up the scraping process.
- Error Handling and Logging: Provides detailed logging for debugging and retry mechanisms for robustness.
- Full URL Extraction: Ensures that all extracted links are complete URLs, enhancing usability.
- Customizable Headers: Allows customization of HTTP headers to mimic different browsers.

## Script Overview

The script consists of several key components:

### Fetching URLs

The script fetches content from the given URLs using the requests library. It includes retry logic with exponential backoff to handle transient errors.

### Parsing Content

The script uses BeautifulSoup to parse the fetched HTML content and extract article titles and links. It ensures that the links are converted to full URLs using urljoin.

### Concurrent Execution

The script employs ThreadPoolExecutor to fetch and parse content from multiple websites in parallel, improving efficiency.

## Access the Script

You can access the script on GitHub here:

discover-plugins - track which plugins are installed into your python environment

# What my project does

discover-plugins is a simple CLI tool that lets you list and filter ~~plugins~~ entrypoints installed into a python environment.

I recently had to track down a bug that I ultimately resulted from a plugin I had installed into my environment. To my surprise, there was no easy way to list which kind of plugins were installed, so I decided to build my own tool.

# Target Audience

discover-plugins is intended as a debugging tool for those times when you are not quite sure which plugins are currently part of your python environment.

# Installation

pipx install discover-plugins

# Usage

Find all installed plugins related to pytest (the relevant group name is pytest11):

discover-plugins --group pytest11

The tool defaults to use the first python interpreter on your path, you can optionally specify which interpreter to use with the --interpreter flag.

The output will list all entrypoints belonging to the pytest11 group. For example, if you had installed a single pytest plugin (pytest-aws-apigateway) the output would look like this:

{
"pytest11":
{
"name": "pytest_httpx",

Pulling Current List From Database in Flask-Admin Form

`Hello guys,`

1) I have a database named Account and I want to list the Account records of the current user in a select list in this database. But this list must be up to date and list all Accounts currently available. But the code I wrote does not work that way. For example, I add an Account, but I have to close and reopen the script for it to appear up to date. if I don't do this the accounts are never listed. How can I solve this problem?

2) I want to show error/warning or success message on the form depending on the situation. What code can I do this with? I tried form.errors\['general'\] but I was not successful.



I would be very glad if you could help me, thank you.

My library VidGear v0.3.3 - brings libcamera API Support to python.

Hello Python developers!

I'm excited to announce the release of VidGear v0.3.3, which brings official support for the libcamera backend in its PiGear API! This update enhances the capabilities of Raspberry Pi Camera Modules and provides limited USB camera support.

#### More about PiGear:

PiGear is a specialized API optimized for Raspberry Pi 🍇 Boards, offering comprehensive support for camera modules (e.g., OmniVision OV5647 Camera Module, Sony IMX219 Camera Module) and limited compatibility for USB cameras.

PiGear implements a seamless and robust wrapper around the Picamera2 Python library, simplifying integration with minimal code changes and ensuring a smooth transition for developers already familiar with the Picamera2 API. PiGear leverages the libcamera API under the hood with multi-threading, providing high-performance 🔥, enhanced control, and functionality for Raspberry Pi camera modules.

PiGear handles common configuration parameters and non-standard settings for various camera types, simplifying the integration process. PiGear currently supports PiCamera2 API parameters such as sensor, controls, transform, and format, with internal type and sanity checks for robust performance.

While primarily focused on Raspberry Pi camera modules, PiGear also provides basic functionality for USB webcams (only with Picamera2 API), along with the ability to accurately differentiate between USB and Raspberry Pi cameras using metadata.

PiGear seamlessly switches to

Does anyone follow the Fat Model, Skinny View design pattern in real-world projects?

We're currently dealing with some very thick views at work (think legacy startup code, lol), and I'd like to establish a convention to avoid this in the future. I've found a few resources that recommend encapsulating business logic in your models.

While I'm considering the 'Fat models, skinny views' approach, I'm also curious about any potential pitfalls or challenges that might come with it.

Could you share any insights or experiences in this regard?

Thanks in advance!
