PyMo - Python Motion Visualizer CLI

Hello, I have build a motion visualizer in python as a CLI script.

What My Project Does: It extracts frames from a video, offsets them and blends them using difference (blend mode from Image and Video Editing Software), applies a few filters and exports a new video.

Target Audience: This is for anyone willing to use it, mostly for fun. If you are comfortable with running scripts in a terminal, you are the target audience. I have mostly created it to see the movement of my vape clouds and that is fun and interesting.

Comparison: As this process can be achieved in any video editing software, even blender, there is not much of a comparison. The only thing that my project does, is the post processing. It just runs contrast and denoise, but that brings out details, which video editing software mostly won't give you (At least from my experience).

This was just a fun project for me which got me to learn and understand tqdm and opencv2.

Django Custom User Model Migration Issue - "Lazy Reference to 'users.CustomUser'"

Hello, I'm working on a Django project where I've implemented a custom user model by subclassing AbstractUser. In my `settings.py`, I've correctly set AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'users.CustomUser'. However, when I run the migrations, I get the following error:
ValueError: The field admin.LogEntry.user was declared with a lazy reference to 'users.customuser', but app 'users' doesn't provide model 'customuser'.

I’ve already made sure that the CustomUser model is correctly defined in users/models.py, and the app is listed in INSTALLED_APPS. I've also run makemigrations for the users app, but I’m still encountering this issue.

Has anyone experienced this before or can help me figure out why Django can't find the CustomUser model? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Spotipy - has anyone used it before?

Hi all -


Has anyone used Spotipy? I'm just a bit concerned that I'd be giving my username and password to something I haven't wrote myself - I'm used to using random scripts off github, but it gives me pause to hand over my details


am I just being silly?

Pivot from Flask

Hey everyone,

I recently built an app using Flask without realizing it’s a synchronous framework. Because I’m a beginner, I didn’t anticipate the issues I’d face when interacting with multiple external APIs (OpenAI, web crawlers, etc.). Locally, everything worked just fine, but once I deployed to a production server, the asynchronous functions failed since Flask only supports WSGI servers.

Now I need to pivot to a new framework—most likely FastAPI or Next.js. I want to avoid any future blockers and make the right decision for the long term. Which framework would you recommend?

Here are the app’s key features:

Integration with Twilio
Continuous web crawling, then sending data to an LLM for personalized news
Daily asynchronous website crawling
Google and Twitter login
Access to Twitter and LinkedIn APIs
Stripe payments

I’d love to hear your thoughts on which solution (FastAPI or Next.js) offers the best path forward. Thank you in advance!

Creating my own password manager bc I can

I started off with creating a CLI app and want to slowly move into making a desktop app, a web app, and a mobile app so I can just host my db and encryption key somewhere and be done with it. I was wondering if anyone can take a peek and give me some criticisms here and there since I don't normally create apps in python: https://github.com/mariaalexissales/password-manager

Looking for remote Django developer (contractor)

I'm looking for a Django Web Developer (backend and frontend) to work at SadServers as a contractor that can lead into a part-time or full-time role.

We use Bootstrap, Celery, REST API and Boto3 among other technologies, see our GitHub repo at [https://github.com/sadservers/sadservers](https://github.com/sadservers/sadservers) for details.

The main qualification is to have made significant code contributions to professional Django websites and be able to communicate well. Many things are a bonus, like having experience with our stack / Linux / AWS / SaaS.

There are no interviews with low signal questions like "why do you want to work for us?" or "what's your biggest weakness?", also no factoid technical questions that can be looked up quickly with a web search or an AI agent.

The process is straight-forward:

* Fill out this form: [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Y-ESW0rrlbh24B5vnbTamHN5w6toT-WIyipLPKTEIsY/](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Y-ESW0rrlbh24B5vnbTamHN5w6toT-WIyipLPKTEIsY/)
* If there's an initial good fit, we'll have one call to discuss what we need and for you to show us and talk about your work.
* If we are both happy, we'll send you an initial short real task to perform on our code and payment for it.

Thanks!

Automated generation of categories for classification D

So I can use Bart zero-shot classification to quantify the relevance of an article to a predefined set of categories but I have a bunch of articles and I want to compute categories from them and then use those categories to classify lots of articles.

I thought maybe I could convert each article to a vector using a text embedding and then use an unsupervised learning algorithm to compute clusters of related articles and then project the groups back into text, maybe by recursively summarizing the articles in each group. However, I don't actually want the constraint that sets of categories must be disjoint which, I think, k-means would impose.

How else might this be accomplished?

PipeFunc: Build Lightning-Fast Pipelines with Python - DAGs Made Easy

Hey r/Python!

I'm excited to share pipefunc (github.com/pipefunc/pipefunc), a Python library designed to make building and running complex computational workflows incredibly fast and easy. If you've ever dealt with intricate dependencies between functions, struggled with parallelization, or wished for a simpler way to create and manage DAG pipelines, pipefunc is here to help.

What My Project Does:

pipefunc empowers you to easily construct Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) pipelines in Python. It handles:

1. Automatic Dependency Resolution: pipefunc intelligently determines the correct execution order of your functions, eliminating manual dependency management.
2. Lightning-Fast Execution: With minimal overhead (around 15 µs per function call), pipefunc ensures your pipelines run blazingly fast.
3. Effortless Parallelization: pipefunc automatically parallelizes independent tasks, whether on your local machine or a SLURM cluster. It supports any concurrent.futures.Executor!
4. Intuitive Visualization: Generate interactive graphs to visualize your pipeline's structure and understand data flow.
5. Simplified Parameter Sweeps: pipefunc's mapspec feature lets you easily define and run N-dimensional parameter sweeps, which is perfect for scientific computing, simulations, and hyperparameter tuning.
6. Resource Profiling: Gain insights into your pipeline's performance with detailed CPU, memory, and timing reports.
7. Caching: Avoid redundant computations with multiple caching backends.
8. Type Annotation Validation: Ensures type consistency across your pipeline to catch errors

Python Youtube album downloader (Downloads video and splits it up into songs based on timestamps)

Purpose: Chrome fuckin sucks with memory so listening to music on YouTube uses so much ram. During exams, it gets kinda long and the amount by which it heats up gets me scared. BUTTTTT, Spotify is much better at playing music, so if only there was a way to listen to videos only on YouTube but on Spotify instead????? (there probably is but I couldn't find one that did it my way).

What My Project Does: A Python script that allows you to download an album from YouTube and split it up into songs, using a timestamps file as a reference. Note the "album" must be a YouTube video and not a playlist unfortunately :(

Target Audience: This is for anyone willing to use it. I kinda created it for myself but thought to post it here anyways

Comparison: Uses a lot of ffmpeg, so I guess that's the similar program? It's not exactly on par with any crazy video editing software but it does the job.

The only thing that kinda sucks is that the timestamps have to be in a certain format otherwise it wont work, I couldn't be asked/ couldn't think of a way to make a REGEX for it. But yh

AndroidSecretary - Your personal, context-aware AI SMS secretary for Android

Hello!

I just released a new project of mine, AndroidSecretary. It uses Flask for its backend, so Python was yet again of great use for this!

What My Project Does

This project provides you with an AI assistant that responds to your SMS messages contextually. It is customizable and can respond for you when you are not available.

Target Audience

Anyone with an Android device supported by the Automate app can have fun and utilize Android Secretary.

Also, this is not meant to be used by the average person. It is meant for developers to use for educational purposes only.

Comparison
So far, there are not many (if any) projects that do what AndroidSecretary does. For reference of features:

1. Ollama & OpenAI Support (with ollama, an external computer more powerful than the phone is likely needed to run more context-wise LLM's, unless you have a phone at least 12 GB of RAM)
2. Context-based assistant responses to messages received.
3. Customization:
1. Name your assistant
2. Limit the max amount of messages per hour per user
3. Blacklist and allowlist features (allowlist overrides blacklist)
4. Block spam feature (provided you give phone contact permissions to Automate)

Tailwind/Bootstrap with Svelte

Currently searching for a frontend framework to use alongside Django. I have become comfortable with Svelte, but I am wondering if there is a way to use tailwind or bootstrap to speed up the procedure of implementing simple designs, while utilizing svelte for more complex ones in the same project. Is it going to work and if yes are there any cons?? If you have any other suggestions let me know...
