Conda can only be run in super

Hey everybody, just started to pick up Python and Django, and the class I'm following tells me to use conda to set up my venv. After a while of not getting anaconda to run, I fixed my .bash_profile so it can run, but when I run ``` $ conda``` it gives me the following error:

PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Users/teddykoomen/anaconda3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/numba-0.33.0-py3.6-macosx-10.7-x86_64.egg-info/PKG-INFO'

When I run conda using ```$ sudo conda``` it does not give me the same error. I don't want to have to run conda as super every time. Any ideas? I've looked over stackoverflow and the anaconda docs and I couldn't find anything helpful. Thank you!

Pycharm and Flask

Hi everyone! I wanted to learn flask for quite a time and decide now to dive into it. I’ve written some simple and small apps with VS Code and the terminal. Now I want to grew for the next step: Databases

I find it quite hard to get a grasp on it(where exactly to start, what do I have write for code, how do I set up a database etc.) but I noticed pyCharm has a flask and database integration.

So I opend my flask project in pyCharm and try run it (which of course not work because of the flask run command (I guess)).

Is there a way to get the project work with flask without setting a complete new flask project?

I use a virtualenv with flask and all modules installed. Also tried to google for an solution but everything is just about setting up a new project. ;(

Thanks for your help!


Edit: Thank you for the answers! The main error was a missing:


if __name__ == '__main__':

new to class based views and have a question

I have a working app and am playing around with class based views and I want to add a check on agency_count in AgencyFullView. Here's my working views without the check:

class AgencyFullMixin(ContextMixin):

def get_context_data(self, pk, **kwargs):
context_data = super(AgencyFullMixin, self).get_context_data(**kwargs)
agency = Agencies.objects.filter(pk=pk)
context_data["agency"] = agency
agency_count = agency.count()
context_data["agency_count"] = agency_count

return context_data

class AgencyFullView(TemplateView, AgencyFullMixin):

template_name = 'myapp/agency_full.html'

def get_context_data(self, **kwargs):
context_data = super(AgencyFullView, self).get_context_data(**kwargs)
return context_data

What I want to do is add a check on the agency_count and if it's 0 direct to one template, if not, to another template. Basic stuff but I'm not quite sure how to do it here. I tried the following but I get "name 'agency_count' is not defined" error :

class AgencyFullView(TemplateView, AgencyFullMixin):

if agency_count == 0:
template_name = 'myapp/not_valid.html'
else:
template_name = 'myapp/agency_full.html'

def get_context_data(self, **kwargs):
context_data = super(AgencyFullView, self).get_context_data(**kwargs)
return context_data

How to Show Calculated Field in Django Admin

Let's say I have a model Invoice.

class Invoice(models.Model):
labor_hour_quantity = models.DecimalField(max_digits=9, decimal_places=1)
labor_descrip = models.TextField(blank=True)
labor_hour_cost = models.DecimalField(max_digits=9, decimal_places=2)

Within the model I have a property defined as such.

@property
def labor_total(self):
return self.labor_hour_quantity * self.labor_hour_cost

How do I get this displayed on Django Admin when I look at an invoice I create? Currently it doesn't even display a DecimalField or value of the return after saving the invoice.

New to Python/Django; following the Tutorial but it seems to take issue with SQLite?

This tutorial: [Link]( https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/intro/tutorial02/ ) - I'm stuck right before "Introducing the Django Admin"

I created the database according to the instructions, and I used SQLite3 because it was recommended. I wanted MySQL, but alas, I chose SQLite, which seems to cause issues - now I believe the model/migration (?) does not contain the proper FOREIGN_KEY, so I cannot continue. How do I fix this?

manage.py sqlmigrate only shows the CREATE_TABLE commands, the foreign key was mentioned but it seems there was no constraint added alongside it, and as a result the choice_set does not exist (i.e., there's no Related Manager attached, according to Google).

Apparently constraints were disabled by default for SQLite3 (why would the tutorial recommend it and not mention that?) - but it was also supposedly fixed years ago ([Link](https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/14204) and [Link 2](https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/14204))

That is as far as googling got me. I have considerable programming experience, but none in Python/with Django, and so I am unable to find the solution on my own. Would anybody be willing to help?

Help me understand get_object_or_404 better

Hey folks,

I have a couple of FBVs in a couple of learning projects, where I have get_object_or_404() functions, and I'd like to understand it better where it takes the argument from.

Does it always get the argument from the url pattern? I guess I think about url patterns as just a slug definer, and not as part of the core code.

This one adds a picture to a given project:
FBV:
> @login_required
def adicionar_post_ao_projeto(request, pk):
projeto = get_object_or_404(Projeto, pk=pk)
if request.method == "POST":
form = PostForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
post = form.save(commit=False)
post.projeto = projeto
post.user = request.user
post.save()
return redirect('posts:single', pk=post.pk)
else:
form = PostForm()
return render(request, 'post_form.html', {'form': form})

URL pattern:
> url(r"(?P<pk>\d+)/novafoto$",views.adicionar_post_ao_projeto,name="adicionar_foto_ao_projeto"),



Sorry if my logic thinking here is not clear enough.
