developing a project management interactive dashboard

Greetings,


I'm considering to develop an interactive dashboard that allows the below features


- allows orchestrating tasks between different teams, along with the ability to track the progress

- generate automated reports based on a predefined template

- has an interactive dashboard so I can see the number of tasks per X time and their status

- can be connected to Excel sheet as an input source


would you please advice on what libraries should I use and whether this work is a daunting task and I should go for a vendor-tool? I know the answer would depend on the details of my context, however I'd like to have a general estimation


thanks in advance

How to pass context to render_template?

Hi,
I use Flask with htmx. In case its a normal request, I call `render_template` as usual. But in case the request is coming from htmx, I want to return only a part of the template.

I've created two templates each time I need to return either or.
```jinja2
# login.html
{% extends "base.html" %}
{% block main %}
{% include "login_form.html" %}
{% endblock main %}
```

```jinja2
# login_form.html
<form>
...
</form>
```

In my route I can easily do:
```python
from flask import render_template
if htmx: template = "login_form.html"
else: template = "login.html"
return render_template(template, ...)
```

Now I came across [Jinja2-Fragments](https://github.com/sponsfreixes/jinja2-fragments) which allows to render only individual blocks of a template. That means I wouldn't have to create the wrapper templates, which would be desirable.

Problem is, I now end up with something like:
```python
from flask import render_template
from jinja2_fragments.flask import render_block
if htmx: return render_block("login.html", "main", ...)
else: return render_template("login.html", ...)
```

Okay, cool. But if I pass n variables as context to the template, I have to repeat those in both function calls. Not exactly DRY.

I could create a dict like `vars = {"var1": var1, "var2": var2, ...}` and pass that to both function calls, but then in the template I need to prefix all variables with `vars.var1` which is not so pretty either.

Cli scraper Dedicated to Alibaba v0.2.0

I have already showcased this package project. I just want to inform you all about my package evolution.

What My Project Does ?

Gathering data from Alibaba based on keywords provided by users and save them in database MySQL/sqlite

Targeted Audience

Thoses who want to build an ALIBABA datasets for analysis.

Comparisons

Asynchronous request to handle many page results.

New features:

Set your bright data api key to use async mode.

Export your scraped data to csv file (you must to have an updated sqlite file which will be converted to csv).

Future enhancements:

Add a rag to chat with your database and let him do your SQL query for you .
This will probably the least feature that in planning to add to this project.
Maybe I will make it croos plateform. Cause now it's only works on windows.


Still looking for testers an reviews and suggestions to improve.

Do you think this package have a potential to grow ? Is it useful ? If not how to make more interesting ?

Here is the repo : https://github.com/poneoneo/Alibaba-CLI-Scrapper

Also excuse me for orthography errors on 'scraper'
I'm find a way to rename my package but its seems to be hard and risky and I dont want to

Django seems like a full-stack framework as opposed to a back-end framework, Is it right for me if I'm looking for a back-end framework?

Title basically sums it up. I wanna get into Django but the tutorials I've seen so far make it seem like it's more of a full-stack framework, and this is making it really difficult for me to know what I'm learning?

I plan on using it with frameworks like React, HTML, CSS, Next.js and more.

This might be a dumb question but I really need to know. Thanks!

Cool services you've made with FastAPI

Hey Everyone, I was just wondering what kind of cool projects people have made using FastAPI? What did you like about the framework and what did you dislike? Is FastAPI used a lot with ML models or computer vision services. Would love to hear your experiences and projects!

Giving the option to the user of allowing concurrent login

Hi there,
i am new to django. I implemented the disabling of concurrent login on the same account using different devices by the use of sessions.
So i thought of why not letting the user itself decide if he wants to allow concurrent login or not.

I tried searching for solutions to this but my search was fruitless.
Any help is appreciated !

Running Background Tasks in Production (Azure Web App)


 have a Django backend project in which i use django-background-tasks to send scheduled emails in the background , in development environment i need a second terminal running the command :
python manage.py process_tasks

now for the production environment i hosted the backend on azure web app and tried the approach of

supervisor (http://supervisord.org/configuration.html) creating a conf file that gets executed on the server but for now i have to manually connect to the server via ssh and run this file the whole point of using the module is to automate this part yet it doesn't seem to work

also tried to add to the deployment workflow this part :

- name: Set up Supervisor
        run: |
          # Install Supervisor
          pip install supervisor
          # Create logs directory if it doesn't exist
          mkdir -p logs
          chmod 666 logs
          # Start Supervisor

What benefit do PostgreSQL connection pools offer over CONNMAXAGE ?

Django 5.1 has psycopg connection pool support: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.1/releases/5.1/#postgresql-connection-pools

How exactly is this different from the existing CONNMAXAGE setting which I assumed was using persistent connection pools already.

I created a command line tool using Python and Ollama to automatically create PRs on GitHub

Hey everybody!

# What My Project Does

I created this command line tool called jit that analyses your diffs and commit messages to generate a pull request description (based on your project's PR template if it has one) and then creates a pull request on GitHub (draft by default) using GitHub CLI.

# Target Audience

This tool is meant for developers that use GitHub. Mostly meant for hobby projects, but if you want you can use it on a production project (for work/clients) because:

* it utilizes a local LLM (no sharing your code to 3rd party APIs)
* The pull requests follow the template specified in your repository
* The pull request is marked as draft by default

# Comparison

I have not found any cli tools that do this in this manner. But I think GitHub's Copilot for Pull Requests will certainly generate better descriptions: [https://githubnext.com/projects/copilot-for-pull-requests/](https://githubnext.com/projects/copilot-for-pull-requests/)

# More about me and jit

I am predominantly a full-stack web developer (React, NestJS) for my job, but I love playing around with Python and other things. I have developed this using Python and Ollama with llama3.

I have been using jit almost every day, for about a month now, and it has made such a big difference in my day-to-day as a

Do you feel like Python's type hinting got "stable"?

Basically the title.

I was reading through [https://docs.python.org/3.13/library/typing.html](https://docs.python.org/3.13/library/typing.html) and noticed that quite a lot happened over the last few years. Doing a text search for `deprecated since version x` with `x` being one of `3.9` to `3.13` I found these according numbers of occurrences:

* `3.9` -> 37
* `3.10` -> 0
* `3.11` -> 1
* `3.12` -> 3
* `3.13` -> 5

Which makes me question how "stable" Python type hinting has become these days. Do you think that there are still rough edges that need major overhauls or is Python 3.13 actually mostly where we need it to be in order to productively use static typing?
