I made a weekly fantasy golf app in Flask

Golf Pool is a simple app for users to pick a "fantasy team" of players in the weekly PGA events, and get live scoring compared to other users' teams. Golfers in each event (the 'field') are grouped into 5 tiers according to their initial rank and win odds. Users pick 1 player from the top tier, 2 from the 2nd tier, 3 from 3td etc, for a total of 15, with their 5 best player scores counted as their team score.

https://app.weeklygolfpool.com/

The American Express Championship is underway, so have a look but you won't be able save a team now. Come back next Wednesday to pick a team for the Farmers Insurance Open in San Diego, or the week following for the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, sometimes referred to as the unofficial start of golf season.

In the near future you will be able to create your own league to compete with friends, instead of all in one big league as it is now. Please let me know if you have other suggestions or questions. Fore!

Building app with Flask, a blueprint for APIs and celery for tasks queuing

Hello,

I'm building a web app that should automate some tasks to run towards network devices.

For my backend, I'm using Flask and I managed to integrate celery in the code.

Now, I needed to update the project structure so I decided to create an entry point and an "api" folder that will contain all the different APIs different each network device.

I can run celery with no issues with the new structure but I'm having problems with accessing the routes on flask. The code is here https://github.com/californinson/AutoTestingPub/tree/main

I'm using run.py as the entry point. tasks.py creates the flask and celery apps using the two functions created on config.py. api/f5/f5_api.py should contain all the flask routes I will need. I also configured the blueprint inside.

I can compile and run run.py but when any API is called I see this error on the logs:

"POST /api/f5/list_files HTTP/1.1" 404 -

"POST /api/f5/user_login HTTP/1.1" 404 -

I went through documentations and articles but I can't understand why flask somehow can't reach the routes in f5_api.py.

The routes are being called with URL "http://local_ip:5000/api/f5/list_files" and "http://local_ip:5000/api/f5/user_login"

I would definitely need a look from someone "external".

What am I doing wrong?

I Built a Tool Automatically Detect and Censor Human Faces in Images and Videos with YOLO

Hi everyone! I wanted to share a project I've been working on - an automated system for detecting and censoring faces in images and videos using YOLOv8 and Python.

~~I currently only have Gaussian Blur as a masking method, but I plan on adding a few more methods.~~

Edit: I have now implemented: Gaussian Blur, Emoji, and Text masking (demonstration images in GitHub repository).

GitHub Repository: [https://github.com/Spring-0/face-censor](https://github.com/Spring-0/face-censor)

# What My Project Does

Main Features:

* Automatically detects faces in images and videos using YOLOv8.
* Applies blur censoring to the detected faces and saves a new image/video.
* Built with extensibility / modularity in mind.
* I have also included a already trained model in the repository in-case someone wants to use it out the box without having to worry about training it themselves. (I have also included the code to train it)

# Target Audience

This project is aimed at:

* Video editors that previously had to manually censor out faces.
* Developers who want to integrate this in their projects.
* Anyone that would be interested in censoring human faces in images/videos.

# Comparison

I have looked into a few projects that had the same idea, except I could not find any that were easy to implement. And this was built using YOLO, making

Ticked 0.2.1 Major Release- A terminal based productivity hub built over Textual

My favorite part of this update revolves around the integration of Canvas LMS. Allowing students to interact with their University courses through the terminal has been a huge goal of mine with this project and I'm happy to say this is only the beginning of my plans for it.

I have also allowed for any Spotify Premium user to interact with the API by inputting their own Client ID and Secret into the app and updated my built-in code editor NEST+ to support some simple quality of life editing features like tab buffers, auto-indentation and auto-pairs.

You can read the full release here, or read the documentation for the app here for more details on the usage of these features. Thank you to everyone who's helped on the project thus far!

Question about Django with postgres

i’m following a tutorial to learn django , I’m understanding everything but when it comes to the sqlite I’m a little bit confused.
. At uni i’ve worked with SQLServer and recently with Postgres so I’m confident in sql it self, I’ve designed databases , build scripts with the basic CRUD operations, triggers, procedures functions etc etc , in both Postgres and sqlserver.

But I’m failing to understand how we would integrate Postgres with Django, as the tutorial uses only SQLite.
How would that work with a previously database created in Postgres ? Would we create the models in resonance with the tables created on Postgres? And let’s say I need to get all the products in the table products to display it on a web page , would I still use the “Products.objects.all()” or somehow Django can import for example a View created on Postgres that displays all products?

Sorry if the question doesn’t make sense , but would really appreciate the help.

Feedback on book recommendation site

I'm working on a book recommendation site called www.smartbookfinder.com using Flask.

I come from a data science/engineering background, so this is my first foray into web development.

It started off because I wasn't happy with Goodreads' recommendations, and I thought I could build a chatgpt wrapper that would give better recommendations. But then, I got hooked on adding additional features.

The whole thing is on my GitHub. I have no idea about best practices for stuff like this so it's kind of a mess. Let me know what you think.

I Made a VR Shooter in Python

I'm working on a VR shooter entirely written in Python. I'm essentially writing the engine from scratch too, but it's not that much code at the moment.

Video: [https://youtu.be/Pms4Ia6DREk](https://youtu.be/Pms4Ia6DREk)

Tech stack:

* PyOpenXR (OpenXR bindings for Python)
* GLFW (window management)
* ModernGL (modernized OpenGL bindings for Python)
* Pygame (dynamic 2D UI rendering; only used for the watch face for now)
* PyOpenAL (spatial audio)

Source Code:

[https://github.com/DaFluffyPotato/pyvr-example](https://github.com/DaFluffyPotato/pyvr-example)

I've just forked my code from the public repository to a private one where I'll start working on adding netcode for online multiplayer support (also purely written in Python). I've played 1,600 hours of Pavlov VR. lol

# What My Project Does

It's a demo VR shooter written entirely in Python. It's a game to be played (although it primarily exists as a functional baseline for my own projects and as a reference for others).

# Target Audience

Useful as a reference for anyone looking into VR gamedev with Python.

# Comparison

I'm not aware of any comparable open source VR example with Python. I had to fix a memory leak in PyOpenXR to get started in the first place (my PR was merged, so it's not an issue anymore), so there probably haven't been too many projects that have taken this route yet.

Most common Python linter, formatter?

I've been asked to assist a group which is rewriting some of its ETL code from PHP to Python. When I was doing python, we used Black and pypy for formatting and linting.

Are these still good choices? What other tools might I suggest for this group? Are there any good Github CI/CD which might be useful?

And any good learning/training resources to recommend?

OSS billing library based in SQL and Python

I just released the 0.1.0 of the project I’ve been working on called bframe. It’s a billing library that is built on top of duckdb and has a client written in python. The project is in active development and I’m looking for feedback!

Repository

Documentation


## What My Project Does

bframe connects to your database (or just files) and generates invoices, line items and the like based off of source data. The library doesn’t require a server and can be fully executed in process which makes it easy to run and test. bframe offers git like branching, time travel and extensive documentation making it a good fit for operators who want better control over their tools.


## Target Audience

bframe is a production application designed for developers and operators. The library supports subscriptions, usage based billing and more; meaning most software based businesses are a good fit.


## Comparison

The largest difference between bframe and alternatives is how we treat persistence. This library connects to an existing store (bring your own infra), while other solutions use their own storage. The approach bframe employs has all of the advantages of running your own infrastructure along with a few others: 

1. No server or internet connection is required which makes it

Adding Metadata-Driven User Defined Fields. Will This Work?

In my Loan Origination System project, I have various models with predefined default fields. When a given institution integrates its data, I'm cognizant that each different institution is likely to have its own user-defined fields that won't have a (key-value) match to the default fields.

I need to be able to allow system admins to make use of their user-defined fields on the front-end. Additionally, allowing the ability to create new user defined fields within the system, for data they may want stored in the application but not necessarily on their core. Ideally, I'd accomplish this without substantially changing the structure of each model and changes to the schemas.

I realize I could just add a single JSON field to each model. However, wouldn't I then be required to handle validation and field-types at the application level?

Instead, will something like this work? Are there better approaches?

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.contenttypes.fields import GenericForeignKey
from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType

FIELDSOURCECHOICES = (
    ('integration', 'Uploaded/Integrated'),
    ('internal', 'Admin/Customer-Created'),
)
