Question: Let users sort model by input

Hey everyone, I'm having trouble finding this answer online so I thought I'd come here and ask. Thanks in advance.

I have a Django model based on real-world locations and addresses. I'd like the user to be able to input their zip-code, and have the model's objects be sorted by the closest available.

It seems like I could use a simple form to collect the user's zip code, but I'm not sure what to do next. Do I need to reload the html or is there a way to sort without changing the page?

Any advice would be appreciated. I don't feel like this should be too difficult, but I'm pretty new to the web-dev world.

A way to auto generate more forms? Or is there another way?

Basically I want a user to be able to fill out an Invoice, and you can enter in Labor or a Product with a quantity and how much labor costs. There will be multiple products and labor codes.

Ie.

Quantity: 2 - Product Description - Unit Cost: $5/ea - Total: $10

Quantity: 10 - Product Description - Unit Cost: $.02/ea - Total: $0.20

Quantity: 1.5 - Labor Description - Per Hour: $35/hour - Total: $52.50


Should I have a row form generate after each one is filled out, or is there a better way to just enter all the data together in one form while being broken out for customer and business to see?

DRF serialization not working on many to many with through models

I have models with many-to-many relationships with a through model. I am trying to set up a DRF serializer to display this data, but I am getting an error message whenever I try to render the API.

# models.py - simplified

class Person(models.Model):
first_name = models.CharField(max_length=250)
last_name = models.CharField(max_length=250)
status = models.IntegerField(choices=STATUS_CHOICES)
village = models.ForeignKey(Village)
gender = models.IntegerField(choices=GENDER_CHOICES)


class Case(models.Model):
summary = models.TextField()
session = models.ForeignKey(Session, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
case_type = models.ForeignKey(CaseType)
court_type = models.IntegerField(choices=COURT_TYPES)
verdict = models.ForeignKey(Verdict)
litigants = models.ManyToManyField(Person, through='Litigant', related_name='litigants')


class Litigant(models.Model):
person = models.ForeignKey(Person, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
case = models.ForeignKey(Case, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
role = models.ForeignKey(Role)
fine = models.ForeignKey(Money, null=True, related_name='fine')
notes = models.TextField()

My serializers.py looks as such:

# serializers.py - simplified

class LitigantSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):

class Meta:
model = Litigant
fields = ('id', 'person', 'case', 'role', 'fine', 'notes')


class CaseSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):

litigants = LitigantSerializer(many=True, read_only=True)

class Meta:
model = Case
fields = ('id', 'summary', 'session', 'case_type', 'court_type', 'verdict', 'litigants')


class PersonSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):

class Meta:
model = Person
fields = ('id','first_name', 'last_name', 'village', 'status', 'gender')

My views.py is:

# views.py - simplified.

class PersonViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
queryset = Person.objects.all().order_by('village__name', 'last_name', 'first_name')
serializer_class = PersonSerializer


class CaseViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
queryset = Case.objects.all().order_by('session__village__name', 'session__date', 'court_type')
serializer_class = CaseSerializer


class LitigantViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
queryset = Litigant.objects.all().order_by('case__session__village__name', 'case__session__date', 'person__last_name',
'person__first_name')
serializer_class = LitigantSerializer

However, when I navigate to api/cases/ I receive the following error:

'RelatedManager' object has no attribute 'pk'

What is more annoying, is that when I only include id and notes in LitigantSerializer, only the id shows up... The notes are nowhere to be found.

Thank you for any help!

PyNomaly: outlier / anomaly detection using Local Outlier Probabilities (LoOP)

Hi all! I've been lurking on this sub for a little while now and thought I'd post a side project I have been working on. It's called PyNomaly, which uses Local Outlier Probabilities (LoOP) to score individual data points on the probability that they are an outlier. You can check it out [here](https://github.com/vc1492a/PyNomaly).

I'm looking for some feedback and folks that could try it out, do some testing and open some issues if there are any. Would appreciate some feedback from the community so I can improve the package! I hope some of you find it useful.

Paco - a coroutine-based library for concurrent programming based on asyncio with a clean api

I just wanted to give a shout-out to what I think is an excellent library that deserves more attention.

Utilizing the stdlib's asyncio module but providing a clean, functional api on top of it is a dream.

I highly recommend people take a look
