Django templates in the frontend

Hi, do you recommend to use Django templates in the frontend instead of using react JS with libraries like these ones:

MenuScript - Run Python Scripts from the MacOS menubar

I want to introduce you to a personal passion project I've built called MenuScript.

https://i.redd.it/k8mcrimzpcva1.gif

What is it?

MenuScript is an Open Source application for MacOS which allows you to run your must have Python Scripts from the menubar. MenuScript needs to know 3 things about the script you want to run, 1. The name (which can be anything), 2. The absolute path to the script e.g. 'user/name/folder/main.py' 3. The absolute path to the python executable in your virtual environment.

I built MenuScript because I've always found it somewhat annoying that running Python scripts requires working in the command line. Additionally I hate that I have to activate my venv to run my scripts since I don't install all my packages globally. For some of my more frequent scripts I just wanted to be able to point and shoot.

To build the app I used rumps and python, and compiled with py2app. Source is available in the repo, and you can download the .app file by visiting the releases page.

How it works?

MenuScript uses subprocess to pass a bash script that activates the venv for your target script, and then runs that script with the relevant dependencies. You can also use it without a venv

Running Linux scripts to update cloud servers - Production Environment: Ubuntu 20.04

Hello All...

so we manage multiple cloud servers( 50+) for clients. And as things goes - sometimes we need to run upgrades on the system...i.e. database backup failed...so we need to manually redo the backup which means - we have to notify the client that the backup failed...schedule downtime....etc...
we a small company - and most of the processes are documented....documented processes means that non-technical people can follow the instructions to the letter..as such should be able to do it...we don't use Ansible.....(too technical for some support staff)....
so I am thinking Jupyter allows for both documentation and execution of scripts.....
Has anyone here used Jupyter Notebooks in a production environment..to automate or simplify server management....

Any resources you can refer me to...would be appreciated....

I made a PyAutoGUI GUI, what do you think?

​

Demo

https://github.com/endrebodi/pyAutoGUI2

You select an option from the dropdown, click "Add", and the script is created line by line.

You can copy it later, or run it in the app itself.

What do you think, should I continue development?

Intermittent django MySQL conection error

I recently used django for one of our projects! But recently after deploying it to production env ( deployed it on ec2 machines) , i'm intermittently getting few MySQL errors. We are using multi-threading in our views for some IO calls.
Following are the errors -

MySQLdb.OperationalError: (2005, "Unknown MySQL server host 'scalerv3.cluster-cefqnpdgdxcd.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com' (2)")
And
2013. Lost connection to MySQL server during query
I have kept connmaxage to 10 mins so that django doesn't tries to make alot of connection but somehow it's still making alot of connections
Would really need someone's help here and would like to know why this is happening!
Help me out here if someone has faced this earlier

Jupyter doesn’t show my files.

When going through the files in jupyter notebooks, I can’t find the files that are on my computer. If I follow the same file in my explorer and on jupyter, jupyter only shows me older folder names with the old files. If I change the folder name and whatever is in it, jupyter doesnt update it.

Display information from another model in another admin model

I have two models in my Models.py; "Award" and "Status"

There is a link from User to Status to mark who made the update, from their the Status is linked to Award. This allows a user to update the status of a specific award over a period of time. It also ensures that if multiple people work on it and update the status it reflects the correct person who made the update. This is because the whole thing needs to be tracked each time someone "touches" it. Nothing can be deleted.

I would like to display the most current status inside the Admin table (where all awards would be list).

Here is my models.py.

class Award(models.Model):
datecreated = models.DateTimeField(autonowadd=True)
datemodified = models.DateTimeField(autonow=True)
firstname = models.CharField(maxlength=50, verbosename = "First Name")
lastname = models.CharField(maxlength=50, verbosename = "Last Name")
rank = models.CharField(maxlength=5, default=None,
choices=RANKCHOICES)
unit = models.CharField(maxlength=6,

Thought you might like my Todoist dashboard

Hello,

Long time lurker.

I'm a huge fan of Todoist and use it every day for work. One feature that I felt was missing though, was a nicely laid out, clean dashboard which would just show my tasks for that day.

So, I built one!

Originally it was just for personal use, but a few others at work liked it and wanted access, so I've made it available for free.

This is the first release, and I'm not a professional coder, so I'm sure there will be some bugs, but I'd appreciate any feedback and hope some might get some use from it.
