IntegrityError: Duplicate Primary Key issue with postgres

Hi,

The database has a few entries that were removed which leaves a gap in the Primary Keys. When testing backup and restore on my dev server, the Primary Key was reset to 1, fine, this is to be expected. However, running:

python manage.py sqlsequencereset microblog

Resets it to the next free number, This is no good, as the ID sequence in the current test db is:

1,2,7,10,12,13,14,17,23,24,25,26

so resetting to 3, just means this will fail in 4 database entries time. I have also tried:

psql
SELECT setval('microblog_blog_id_seq', (SELECT MAX(id) FROM microblog_blog)+1);

Whilst it returns the correct number in the console, and I am able to add another post, looking at the database table in pgAdmin, shows that it has picked the number 3 again, not 27 which is what I want it to do. Literally, I want it to treat any number < max as a no go value.

How can I do this? and if anyone knows why this is not the default behaviour I would be interested to know the reason why?

Django-Channels: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application

Hi All!

After adding channels app on my project, I started having this error when running [manage.py](https://manage.py) runserver:

&#x200B;

\---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

import win32api

ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application

\-----------------------------------------------------

&#x200B;

It lookslike this error is raised by twisted, which is apparently changing the work directory after importing daphne server.


I had a previous installation of Python on this location, which is not active anymore.

&#x200B;

Does any of you know how to correct this?

Only allow a route to be accessed from within the flask app

I followed a couple of tutorials and now have a form and a /create-user route which accepts the data and creates a user in the database.

What is the correct way to protect this route so that it only accepts a call from within the flask app?

otherwise, can't people just post directly to it and create users using postman or insomnia.?

Best practice for home page and authentication?

I'd like to create an app that displays certain information on the home page if a user is logged in.  Take GitHub for example.  If you are logged in, [GitHub.com](https://GitHub.com) is your profile.  But if you're not logged in, it's a sign up form. 

I guess I'm asking what the best practices are for displaying different information at the same route depending on whether a user is logged in?  Would I use a conditional to return different templates depending on authentication status?  Or is there a better/more secure way?

Thanks for any help you all can provide.

New to python, wanted to show my first 2 proper projects

I am not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I have been practicing python and wanted to show off my recent projects which I worked hard on getting working (And thanks to someone at r/learnpython for helping me with the first)

&#x200B;

The first program is a timer, using tkinter for a GUI. I really prefer having a GUI for all my programs, it makes it very nice to use.

[https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/939467109946388671/5F61D994F94187E3F6A4DD3C6FF8130CEF7E91E6/](https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/939467109946388671/5F61D994F94187E3F6A4DD3C6FF8130CEF7E91E6/)

My second program uses TURTLE Graphics and Tkinter to make a worse-paint program.

[https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/939467109946391937/890D58664BB2D587ACDB39B649129A95489DC540/](https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/939467109946391937/890D58664BB2D587ACDB39B649129A95489DC540/)

The arrows allow you to turn and move the the turtle, you can change the values it moves by in the boxes and there is a toggle to lift and drop the pen.

Flask website example

Hello all,

Has anyone found a good resource for flask based websites? I mean pages created with flask that one can download and then modify for learning purposes. I am looking to learning a bit of flask to build a small page to use as a control for a homemade thermostat.

I find that following a tutorial from the beginning takes a really long time and I think it would be helpful to have a working example that one can modify while reading the documentation.

Cheers

Is BeeWare reliable at the moment ?

hello , I have several months to complete a school project and PyBee is exactly what I am looking for , considering python for building cross-platform apps for mobile phones only, has anyone succeeded in making an App using BeeWare ? Or is it better to learn C# and consider Xamarin ?

P.s: I have fairly good knowledge in C,C++ and several other basic langs.

Thank You, Have a nice day ahead.

Best date time picker for meeting / event scheduled app

Hi all,

I’m need some inspirations for date time pickers to implement for web django app similar to doodle.

The logic I proposed is users can either create events with fixed date / time settings or more dynamic date/ time settings.

Further explanation:
Select availability?
a. Date
b. Set time
i. Start time
ii. End time
*Both optional, in most cases users will have a start and end time


I would be grateful for any recommendations that work well with bootstrap 4 and django.

Run a tensorflow.js program using flask

Im new to both flask and tensorflow, so its probably not surprising that i have no idea what i am doing

What i want to do, however is this: run a tensorflow demo ([https://github.com/tensorflow/tfjs-examples/tree/master/webcam-transfer-learning](https://github.com/tensorflow/tfjs-examples/tree/master/webcam-transfer-learning)) with flask.

Problem: when i run it, the demo, which should use the webcam, says it cannot find a webcam.

(webcam is there, live demo works as expected, but the locally run demo cannot turn on or even find the webcam)

Is there even a known way to solve this? Or will i have to butcher the demo to accept the webcam frames sent from the server side (like this: [https://github.com/log0/video\_streaming\_with\_flask\_example](https://github.com/log0/video_streaming_with_flask_example))

Is there a way to use the django_extensions shell_plus --notebook as the shell for debugging a view using ipdb.set_trace()?

It's an esoteric use case, but basically, stepping through the code in ipdb is great for debugging, but it would be even better to step through the view code in an jupyter notebook.

Looking for Machine Learning Course recommendation.

Hi guys,

&#x200B;

Have a pretty good experience in Python and want to build a new ML skill.

&#x200B;

What would you recommend for me? Books, courses, videos etc

&#x200B;

Thank you.

&#x200B;

PS: Since a lot of people give a very good recommendation here, I would like to summarize something in the topic:

* [scikit-learn documentation](https://scikit-learn.org/stable/index.html) has a lot of good examples.
* [Coursera Machine Learning by Andrew NG (Stanford)](https://www.coursera.org/learn/machine-learning) \- it is more theoretical course, ±3month long. Without using Python, but Octave/Matlab . Python assignments for the machine learning class can be found in [this github repo](https://github.com/dibgerge/ml-coursera-python-assignments).
* [Coursera Applied Machine Learning in Python (University of Michigan)](https://www.coursera.org/learn/python-machine-learning) \- smaller course in terms of time, 4 weeks, but with using Python
* [Sentdex series of Machine learning](https://pythonprogramming.net/machine-learning-tutorial-python-introduction/) \- he is a very active YouTube Python Blogger, so with 72 videos in the course he covered quite a lot. They also have they own Discord chat for questions.
* [course.fast.ai](https://course.fast.ai) \- Practical Deep Learning for Coders, v3, this is a third version of this course, which means this guy has some experience in teaching. The course itself is using [fast.ai](https://fast.ai) (his own lib) and PyTorch
* [Stanford Course on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3FW7Lu3i5JvHM8ljYj-zLfQRF3EO8sYv)
