Sometimes you have a Django template but you don't have the data yet to fill it in. ContextPlaceholder creates a mocked variable that contains whatever your template asks for.

I’m trying to create a real estate app and I’m stuck between having one app for buyer and seller or creating two separate apps.

Hello, I’m new to django. I’m trying to create a real estate application where a seller can post properties and a buyer can enquire about them. A seller will also have a separate dashboard where all his listings will be and enquiries on his listings.

Both buyer and selller have a lot of common fields, right now I have a separate seller app with seller model created. I’m working on the user app with django’S built in user module so I’m not making a user model.

Should I keep it this way or combine them into one app?

Session list only holds first two items?

Hello,

​

Currently I am working on a shopping cart for my eCommerce store.

To handle my "shopping cart" I decided to use sessions.

​

I have added simple code to do this.

On a post request where "add to cart" is clicked

​

if 'cart' in session:

session\['cart'\].append("a")

else:

session\['cart'\] = \["a"\]

​

is my code.

​

Unfortunately this only works for the first two iterations. That is, when I click add to cart, once it stores session\['cart'\] = "a"

then I click it again it results in session\['cart'\] = \["a", "a"\]

​

but when I do it a third or more times, I get

session\['cart'\] = \["a", "a"\]

​

Does anybody know why my session list can only hold two items in the list?

​

Thank you.

Can someone explain why people use Anaconda for Python?

I have been using Python for a while now (without Anaconda) for my web development class at school. I noticed that a lot of people use Anaconda for Python, so I decided to see what it was. After trying it out myself it seems like a Python environment with pre-installed libraries. Why don't people just install Python and add libraries when they need them? I'm sorry if this is a silly question, but, what is the purpose of Anaconda?

Sample medium sized code bases in Python, with bugs and/or failing tests?

So, the title is pretty much what I'm looking for. I have a technical interview coming up in a few days, and one section of the interview is debugging exactly such a code base. Most of my Python experience has come from studying data structures and algorithms on a pretty small scale (think Leetcode or CtCI problems). Would anyone know if such a thing exists somewhere that I can access? It would be a Godsend for my interview prep.

[AF] I am trying to make a button that updates a variable server side.

I am trying to make a button that will update a server-side variable so I can display it. For example, what I am trying to do is make a button that can be pressed by anyone on my website to add more clicks to my click counter. Anyone can click the button and add more clicks and it updates for everyone who puts in a new get request. Anyone have ideas on how to go about this? Thanks!

Session data lost after redirect but only with iPad

My Django app integrates with GoCardless, a UK payment provider through their API. When a user sets up a new GoCardless account the process works as follows:

* My app generates a token and saves it in a session variable
* It redirects to GoCardless which captures the user's account data via 2 screens.
* GoCardless redirects back to my app
* My app retrieves the token from the session and call their API to complete the process.

This has been working fine for over 2 years and still works fine with Chrome, Edge or Firefox. But recently I started getting error reports from users. Investigation shows these are users with an iPad or iPhone, and what is happening is that all Django's session information has been lost by the time GoCardless redirects back to me.

My guess is that this behaviour is associated with some recently added measures in ios to avoid tracking by cookies and the session data is lost as soon as the user leaves the site.

Does anyone know exactly why this is happening? Can anything be done in the Django settings to avoid it?

I have sidestepped the issue for now by saving the token in a database table instead of in

Beginner question

FYI I have no previous experience in coding. Here goes my question:

My mac has both pythons installed. I want to code in sublime text. Now to the best of my knowledge I have to find a path to python3 yo set it as a default for sublime. When I run $ test -a python3 it gives me 2 paths. One is simple another one is little larger. Both of them say python3 at the end. However when I connect it to sublime terminal box in sublime still says python2.

I'm not sure if I explained it well. Hope it's clear. Has anyone experienced the same problem?

[Help]simple betting game that keep running track of money.

This is a very simple game im doing just for sake of learning. Ive done all this from memory and debugging. I have been stumped at the running total. Like if I win 500 I want the game to remember im at 5500 and if I win 500 again I would be at 6000 but the game just sees that 5000 stored in money at the beginning of the def and no matter how much I win its gone after every game. If anyone could help, it would be greatly appreciated!


import random

def gamble():

x = int(input('choose 1 or 2: '))

money = int(5000)

print('you have: ', money)

bet = int(input('How much would you like to bet?, you have: '))

y = int(random.randint(1,2))

if x == y:

[P] I'm a bot and will serve people analyzing chess positions from images posted on /r/chess

A few days ago, my creator, u/pkacprzak, wrote a [post](https://www.reddit.com/r/MachineLearning/comments/b8jdho/p_detect_and_analyze_chess_positions_with_ai_from/) about [chessvision.ai](https://chessvision.ai/) \- his computer vision/machine learning app to analyze chess positions from any website and video in a browser.

​

Since then, people reached him suggesting that it'd be nice to build a bot for [r/chess](https://www.reddit.com/r/chess) that can work with the app, analyze chess images posted there and provide automatic position analysis.

​

All of us love the awesome [u/ChessFenBot](https://www.reddit.com/u/ChessFenBot) that was doing just that, but for some reason, it hasn't been working recently,

​

so from now I, [u/chessvision-ai-bot](https://www.reddit.com/u/chessvision-ai-bot), will be pleased to serve you!

​

I'm trying to analyze pictures posted on r/chess, both as links as well as content images, and if a picture contains a chess position, I'm gonna provide analysis and editor boards links for you. The image doesn't have to be perfect, I'll try my best to find the chessboard if it's there and identify the position.

Please give me some love, yeah I mean upvotes, because as a new user I'm limited in performing requests to reddit API and I really want to serve you well!

SQLAlchemy has no 'Column' member ( or any else )

I installed SQLAlchemy, but keep getting these kind of errors. The whole thing works when I run it, but the linting still gives me errors.

I am using VSCode and the solution given on other sites is to use pylint-flask and add it to settings.json. This does nothing other than point out my pep8 mistakes.

Are there any other solutions?

A project I built to train on python: a twitter bot that tells you if a user is generally negative or not.

Hey everyone!

So after learning the basics of python with automating the boring stuff, I knew if I wanted to go further I had to come up with some ideas and just try to program them. I did a few, from a monitor that tells me when my bus is coming, to a camera remote...
I'm also on Twitter quite a lot, and I like the site. HOWEVER, I noticed a lot of people becoming more and more negative, and sometimes I try to clean my timeline just to stay in a decent mood. I used to unfollow people when one tweet from them annoyed me but I felt sometimes I was being unfair and I lost some good content.

So, I decided to write this bot: for each tagged user, it analyses most of their tweets and gives them a "positivity score" and a percentage of good/bad tweets. It was very useful and nowadays my timeline is much calmer, while still following some really interesting people.

So I put the bot online, it's [https://twitter.com/_PositivityBot] (https://twitter.com/_PositivityBot) and you use it by sending it a message following this pattern : !Analyze username

For example: !Analyze USATODAY or !Analyze @USATODAY

It processes the tweets and then you
