How do I Make Calender

I want to make a calender app. Should I use fullcallenderio? I've tried to make it myself but I have limited knowledge on JS

For those of you who user raspberry pi scripts and eink screen, what driver do you use?

It is for waveshare 7.3 inch color. I looked in their documentation and added this python code

from waveshare_epd import epd7in3g,
epd = epd7in3g.EPD()



This might be stretching what is allowed to post here, but I thought I would ask. Does that look correct. I previously had a python script working correctly with a black and white screen.

flask and underscores in headers

I am writing a server that handles request from a client app that I do not have any control over. The app sends a specific header "access_token" which my server needs to receive. Unfortunately, by default, Flask seems to throw these values away. I can see the header traveling over the network in my Wireshark output, but when it arrives at my server Flask is completely blind to it. Since I can't control the client app the general solution of "just don't use underscores" isn't going to work for me. Anyone have a solution that allows Flask to receive and process headers with underscores in them?

Function use counters in Visual Studio Code

Many language extensions in VSCode include features that show the number of references to a specific function, class, or entity.


We've just released an extension that brings this functionality to Python, displaying reference counters for top-level functions and classes. Clicking a counter reveals a list of references.


Try it out here Tooltitude for Python


P.S. This is a newly released extension, and we’d love your feedback!


P.P.S. It’s not our first VSCode extension. Check out Tooltitude for Go, which has been on the marketplace for ~2 years, offering similar functionality for Go and more, with plenty of positive reviews.

Grokking at the Edge of Numerical Stability Research

>Grokking, the sudden generalization that occurs after prolonged overfitting, is a surprising phenomenon challenging our understanding of deep learning. Although significant progress has been made in understanding grokking, the reasons behind the delayed generalization and its dependence on regularization remain unclear. In this work, we argue that without regularization, grokking tasks push models to the edge of numerical stability, introducing floating point errors in the Softmax function, which we refer to as Softmax Collapse (SC). We demonstrate that SC prevents grokking and that mitigating SC enables grokking without regularization. Investigating the root cause of SC, we find that beyond the point of overfitting, the gradients strongly align with what we call the naïve loss minimization (NLM) direction. This component of the gradient does not alter the model's predictions but decreases the loss by scaling the logits, typically by scaling the weights along their current direction. We show that this scaling of the logits explains the delay in generalization characteristic of grokking and eventually leads to SC, halting further learning. To validate our hypotheses, we introduce two key contributions that address the challenges in grokking tasks: StableMax, a new activation function that prevents SC and enables grokking without regularization, and ⊥Grad,

I made a simple python scripts that automate deletion of your ChatGPT chats

Hey! I was considering whether to post this or not, and I decided other people may have had this issue too, where you been using chatGPT all the time, there's like a thousand chats, I was in this predicament and made a program that I made on Linux for firefox with Selenium, that essentially automatically goes through and starts deleting your chats on chatGPT.

I made it on Linux, I have no clue the compatibility with windows, and it's for firefox, If anyone else who's in this predicament wants to use it feel free!

Showcase: Python-Lotion – A Lightweight Wrapper for the notion-client (Beta)

Hi everyone,



I’d like to share my new project: Python-Lotion, a lightweight Python wrapper for the notion-client. 🚀



What My Project Does



Python-Lotion is designed to make working with the Notion API simpler and more intuitive. It wraps around the popular notion-client library, providing a cleaner interface for fetching, creating, and managing Notion pages and blocks. This is especially useful for developers looking to integrate Notion into their Python projects with minimal effort.



Target Audience



This project is aimed at:

• Developers working on production applications requiring Notion API integrations.

• Enthusiasts exploring Notion automation for personal use.

• Anyone looking for a lightweight and straightforward alternative to existing Notion API libraries.



Comparison



Here’s how Python-Lotion differs from existing alternatives like notion-client:

• Simpler syntax: Python-Lotion focuses on reducing boilerplate code for common tasks.

• Lightweight design: Aims to stay small and focused, avoiding unnecessary complexity.

• Work in progress: Currently in beta, with plans to expand features and improve usability over time.



What’s Next

• Expanding the documentation to make onboarding easier.

• Adding advanced block management functionality, such as creating, updating, and organizing blocks within pages.

It Shouldn't Be This Much Work to Sync Data Between Django and Vue SPA

I love Django, I love Vue SPAs - but I don't like spending time writing boilerplate code to link the frontend to backend models. Serializers, Views, Services, State Management, Caching, yeah... it's a lot. So I built a system that gives Vue SPAs reactive, real-time sync with Django models. No boilerplate - just write Django models and get a reactive frontend data layer where every component's view is automatically, instantly synced with the actual database state, whether changes come from other clients, background tasks, admin panels, or anywhere else. It's snappy enough to power real-time applications like chat apps and leverages Django Rest Framework under the hood.

Demo - two clients both connected to the remote backend, staying in sync

https://i.redd.it/p89ph27enkde1.gif

Out of the box, you get smart caching that invalidates correctly when CRUD operations occur (on another client, or a Django backend initiated save), optimistic UI updates, and sophisticated backend performance optimizations. Request serializer caching, automatic model schemas, and real-time synchronization come for free - without writing any additional plumbing code. The system intelligently manages data consistency, providing a seamless, responsive experience across client and server. This approach should also work for React apps - but I've not looked into this yet.

Best practices mocking in Django Rest Framework

From my studying I learned that to have tests that are not brittle you should use as little mocking as possible.

In my API endpoints, I have secured it with the Django OAuthlib that requires the requests to have Authorization header with a token in it. If I want to test the endpoint functionality only and thus mock the call to the library to always allow the request whatever the token value is, is that a brittle test? Since if I change my authentication method, all my mocks will have to be updated? What is the general best practice for mocking with Django DRF?

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?

how can i make a form created in admin accessible to all user

i created several mock data inside the admin page of django. these data are book forms (book title, summary, isbn).

im trying to fetch these data and put it on my ui (frontend: reactjs) as well as make sure these mock data are saved in my database (mysql) but everytime i try to access it django tells me i dont have the authorisation. i double checked and configured my jwt token and made sure to [isAuthenticated\] my views but i still keep getting 401

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.
