reverse() returns a url, which is just a string, but post() must return a HttpResponse

could do return redirect("pacientes:paciente_registro", documento=documento)

knbk: but I need send this variable or variables to another view to process, for instance: 'q' search or select element.

HttpResponse do that ?

what about redirect ?

yes, this should do what you want

redirect() just calls reverse() and returns a HttpResponseRedirect

moldy: thank you

knbk: is working now

Could somebody please walk me through getting daphne to run through supervisor?

knbk: the las step was do this: return redirect("pacientes:paciente_registro", documento=documento)

I was doing : return redirect("pacientes:paciente_registro", {documentodocumento})

I was doing : return redirect("pacientes:paciente_registro", {documento:documento}) in a dict

I'm trying to update a datetimeField , so I give it a datetime.datetime object, but now it complains 'expected string or bytes-like object'

That doesnt make sense, right?

Hey i have a question. I am not wondering what necessarily causes the problem since I was guessing the `queries` while coding . I am asking how should i query this simple snippet so that i could use the right query the snippet is self explained in its comments: https://dpaste.de/Eow0

lxer I had the same problem but in a different use case i suppose instead of fixing the problem i just used models.DateField(default=timezone.now) to update my publish date

its probably not the same thing but it worked for me :P

but i dont know if it would help dont trust me im just a beginner

lordofthekebabs: I have to update the datetimeField with a new date that I get from somewhere.

lordofthekebabs: you have to use try/except blocks. line 30 and 32 fail when current_user is None

lxer it updates when the form submits ? I mean yeah i had the same problem I needed i publish_date for my `posts` when the post form was submitted . Instead of fixing the dateField problem that i had i just improted `from django.utils import timezone` in models and used `publish_date = models.DateField(default=timezone.now)` it worked for me i dont know if it is helpful tho

and yes i do have try except condiions in my code the snippet is just a demonstration

if I have a TextField() in a django model using the PostgreSQL database - do I need both blank=True and null=True or will PostgreSQL save the result of blank=True as an empty string or will it use null meaning I also need to specifiy null=True?

Nizumzen: if you don't have null=True, it'll save an empty string

generally you don't want null=True on Char/TextField unless you need null for a unique constraint

knbk: awesome thank you

knbk could you help me with this query that i am having trouble coding it ? https://dpaste.de/Eow0

lordofthekebabs: sorry, don't have much time to get into it right now

knbk alrighty thank you anyway :)

Does anybody have a working supervisor conf.d for running daphne? All I've found from googling is examples of conf.ds that don't work!

I do

but it depends on the daphne version

channels2 and channels1 are different

can i use 2 foreign keys in the same model

hey guys, probably a nub question, but I'm just starting my first django app and after I've setup my models (using an existing database) I don't see any of them in the admin, even though they work in the shell and I have registered them in admin.py

both pointing to the same User class that django auth sys provides

also I have added it to the INSTALLED_APPS

darthdeus im a beginner too i always forget to import the models in the admin.py before registering

maybe you skipped that but i doubt it :P

lordofthekebabs: uhm I don't think that's it, I have from .models import *

and also using pycharm which kinda helps me with imports :x

well try `from .models import modelName, modelName2` i do it that way but again i doubt that is the issue

instead of trying to import * all at once

i dunno

didn't help :(

:( at least i tried

oh shit I found it :D I was doing admin.register() instead of admin.site.register() :x

lordofthekebabs: thanks for the help anyway :)

:)

lordofthekebabs: you can have two foreign keys but you cannot have a composite foreign key if that's what you want

"Cannot use ImageField because Pillow is not installed. HINT: Get Pillow at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pillow or run command pip install Pillow.", except Pillow is installed

fmul alright thanks

GraysonBriggs: are you sure you're running the python you installed it for?

Wooble: i'm pretty sure, the only version of Python running on it is Python 3.5

and i installed it with pip3

GraysonBriggs: are you using django in a virtualenv?

no

always use virtualenv

If you installed django and pillow with the same pip3 it should definitely be able to find it, though. :/

its running on a RPi 3 as basically a Kiosk

the server on the device as well

damn 10 years spent in ruby on rails, and after 3 days of django I feel really stupid for not having it tried sooner :xs

darthdeus: :)

hmm, this error makes me sound like an idiot, but i've been struggling with it the last couple hours. I think ill wipe Python out and just restart

Hello. I'm trying to add some validation in forms.py. I'm using Django 2.0.3. I'd like to access request.user in the form. I've been able to use get_form(self) in views.py to set form.fields['user'] = self.request.user, but when I try to access the user model in forms.py I'm getting "'User' object has no attribute 'disabled'" and the user object seems to by of a lazyload type. I can think of some workarounds, but I'd like to know th

e correct way for achieving this.

ot spimds ;ole ypi

oh boy, sorry

it sounds like you're accessing the User object, just trying to access a field that doesn't exist

could you paste the relevant code

Kangermu: thanks for the help, I'll put something up on pastebin

greatgatsby: request.user is usually the logged-in user. it seems like you should just call it username in your form

greatgatsby: one simple thing....are you trying to access "is_active"? which is a default field on the django.auth User model
