I have read this stackoverflow Q&A but it did not worked it my case.
In my scenario I push a function (submit_transaction_for_settlement(transaction_id)) to the redis queue using the excellent package django-rq. The job of this function is to submit a transaction for settlement.
In the sandbox, whenever this function is executed I keep getting the same error: AttributeError: type object 'Configuration' has no attribute 'environment'.
I tried agf's proposal about instantiate a new gateway for each transaction inside my function, but it did not work!
Maybe this has something to do with the environment of the redis queue or the worker environment?
def submit_transaction_for_settlement(transaction_id):
from braintree import Configuration, BraintreeGateway
config = Configuration(environment=settings.BRAINTREE_ENVIRONMENT, merchant_id=settings.BRAINTREE_MERCHANT_ID,
public_key=settings.BRAINTREE_PUBLIC_KEY, private_key=settings.BRAINTREE_PRIVATE_KEY)
gateway = BraintreeGateway(config=config)
result = gateway.transaction.submit_for_settlement(transaction_id)
Ahrg!
I hate the moments where I answer a question and minutes after I find myself the solution!
The fault was in the command running the rqworker. I was using the command python manage.py rqworker --worker-class rq.SimpleWorker because I had this issue because I used python 2.7 (or something else caused this issue). The command generated this issue was python manage.py rqworker.
Upgrading now to python 3.4, the last command works like a charm!
So, running python manage.py rqworker did the trick and no such errors!
I'm developing a module with the crontab.
Actually, the framework I'm using is django so I did install 'django-crontab'
I did test as the instruction did and make it with localhost environment.
When I deployed("sudo service apache2 restart") it on AWS after doing a command 'python manage.py crontab add', it didn't work.
I thiknk it's working on only localhost environment, isn't it?
How can I solve this problem?
If you have more than one profile in your django settings, you shuold specify one before add crontab. if not specified, django crontab run as default environment, which is develop mostly. To run it on product environment , you should do these:
specify crontab enviromen in settings.product.py, something like
CRONTAB_DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE = 'gold.settings.product'
specify settings profile and add crontab
export MYPROJECT_PROFILE = product
python manage.py crontab add
I have been using the method described in this post for setting up IPython Notebook to play nicely with Django. The gist of the method is to create an IPython extension which sets the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE and runs django.setup() when IPython starts.
The code for the extension is:
def load_ipython_extension(ipython):
# The `ipython` argument is the currently active `InteractiveShell`
# instance, which can be used in any way. This allows you to register
# new magics or aliases, for example.
try:
import os
os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "settings")
import django
django.setup()
except ImportError:
pass
With a recent upgrade to Jupyter Notebook this setup is now broken for me. I am able to run Django code in the Jupyter notebook by adding a similar bit of code to the first cell of the notebook. However, I was not able to figure out how to get Jupyter to run the extension automatically so I would not have to do this again for each and every notebook I am creating.
What should I do to get Django and Jupyter to play nicely?
UPDATE:
For #DarkLight - I am using Django 1.8.5 with Jupyter 1.0.0. The code I run in the notebook is:
import os, sys
sys.path.insert(0, '/path/to/project')
os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "settingsfile")
import django
django.setup()
Install django-extensions from https://github.com/django-extensions/django-extensions/blob/master/docs/index.rst
pip install django-extensions
Change your settings file to include 'django-extensions'
INSTALLED_APPS += ['django_extensions']
Run your Django server like this:
python manage.py shell_plus --notebook
alter to suit, and run this in your first cell
import os, sys
PWD = os.getenv('PWD')
os.chdir(PWD)
sys.path.insert(0, os.getenv('PWD'))
os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "local_settings.py")
import django
django.setup()
Now you should be able to import your django models etc. eg:
from app.models import Foobar
Foobar.objects.all()
Just for completeness (but it's 2018, so maybe things changed since this question was posted): you can actually install a Jupyter Python kernel in your Django environment that will then connect (run under) a different Jupyter server/environment (one where you've installed widgets, extensions, changed the theme, etc.). django_extensions right now still does only part of the required work :-)
This assumes you have a Jupyter virtual environment that's separate from Django's one and whose kernels/extensions are installed with --user. All the Jupyter extensions (and their dependencies) are installed in this venv instead of the Django's one/ones (you'll still need pandas, matplotlib, etc. in the Django environment if you need to use them together with Django code).
In your Django virtual environment (that can run a different version of Python, including a version 2 interpreter) install the ipython kernel:
pip install -U ipykernel
ipython kernel install --user --name='environment_name' --display-name='Your Project'
This will create a kernel configuration directory with the specified -–name in your user’s Jupyter kernel directory (on Linux it's ~/.jupyter/ while on OSX it’s ~/Library/Jupyter/) containing its kernel.json file and images/icons (by default the default Jupyter icon for the kernel we’re installing are used). This kernel will run inside the virtual environment what was active at creation, thus using the exact same version of python and all the installed modules used by our Django project.
Running ./manage.py shell_plus --notebook does something very similar, but in addition to requiring everything (including the Jupyter server and all the extensions) installed in the current venv, it’s also unable to run notebooks in directories different from the project’s root (the one containing ./manage.py). In addition it’ll run the kernel using the first executable called python it finds on the path, not the virtual environment’s one, making it misbehave when not started from the command line inside an active Django virtual environment.
To fix these problems so that we're able to create a Notebook running inside any Django project we have so configured and to be able to run notebooks stored anywhere on the filesystem, we need to:
make sure the first ‘argv’ parameter contains the full path to the python interpreter contained in the virtual environment
add (if not already present) an ‘env’ section that will contain shell environment variables, then use these to tell Python where to find our project and which Django settings it should use. We do this by adding something like the following:
"env": {
"DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE": "my_project.settings",
"PYTHONPATH": "$PYTHONPATH:/home/projectuser/projectfolder/my_project"
}
optional: change ‘display_name’ to be human friendly and replace the icons.
editing this environment kernel.json file you'll see something similar:
{
"display_name": "My Project",
"language": "python",
"env": {
"DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE": "my_project.settings",
"PYTHONPATH": "$PYTHONPATH:/home/projectuser/projectfolder/my_project"
},
"argv": [
"/home/projectuser/.pyenv/versions/2.7.15/envs/my_project_venv/bin/python",
"-m",
"ipykernel_launcher",
"-f",
"{connection_file}",
"--ext",
"django_extensions.management.notebook_extension"
]
}
Notable lines:
"DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE": "my_project.settings": your settings, usually as seen inside your project's manage.py
"PYTHONPATH": "$PYTHONPATH:/home/projectuser/projectfolder/my_project": PYTHONPATH is extended to include your project's main directory (the one containing manage.py) so that settings can be found even if the kernel isn't run in that exact directory (here django_extensions will use a generic python, thus running the wrong virtual environment unless the whole Jupyter server is launched from inside it: adding this to the kernel.json created by django_extensions will enable it to run notebooks anywhere in the Django project directory)
"/home/projectuser/.pyenv/versions/2.7.15/envs/my_project_venv/bin/python": first argument (argv list) of the kernel execution, should be the full path to your project's virtual environment's python interpreter (this is another thing django_extensions gets wrong: fixing this will allow any notebook server to run that specific Django environment's kernel with all its installed modules)
"django_extensions.management.notebook_extension": this is the extension that will load the 'shell_plus' functionality in the notebook (optional but useful :-) )
Here's what just worked for me
install Django Extensions (I used 1.9.6) as per other answers
install jupyterpip install jupyter
some stuff I did to setup jupyter inside my Docker container -- see below if this applies to you †
from your base Django directory, create a directory for notebooks, e.g. mkdir notebooks
Go to that directory cd notebooks
start django extensions shell_plus from inside that directory: ../manage.py shell_plus --notebook
The notebook server should now be running, and may launch a new browser. If it doesn't launch a browser window, follow the instructions to paste a link or a token.
from the browser, open a new "Django Shell Plus" notebook, as per John Mee's answer's screenshot
AND, importantly, what didn't work was changing directories from inside the notebook environment. If I tried to work with any notebook that was not in the directory that manage.py shell_plus --notebook was run in, then the kernal was not configured correctly. For me, having the notebook be configured for just a single directory at a time was good enough. If you need a more robust solution, you should be able set PYTHONPATH prior to starting jupyter. For example add export PYTHONPATH="$PYTHONPATH:/path/to/django/project" to a virtualenv activate script. But I haven't tried this.
† Docker Setup (optional)
add a port mapping for your container for port 8888
For example, in your docker compose file;
ports:
- "8890:8888"
Configure your project settings file to use ip 0.0.0.0
This is what I did:
NOTEBOOK_ARGUMENTS = [
'--ip', '0.0.0.0',
'--allow-root',
'--no-browser',
]
Note: I am using Python 3.7 and Django 2.1, it works for Django 2.2. I don't have to run anything in my first cell, and this works like charm as long as you don't mind having the notebooks in the root of your Django project.
It is assumed that you have a virtual environment for your project, and it is activated. I use pipenv to create virtual environments and track dependencies of my python projects, but it is up to you what tool you use.
It is also assumed that you have created a Django project and your current working directory is the root of this project.
Steps
Install jupyter
Using pip
pip install jupyter
Using pipenv
pipenv install jupyter
Install django-extentions
Using pip
pip install django-extensions
Using pipenv
pipenv install django-extensions
Set up django-extensions by adding it to the INSTALLED_APPS setting of your Django project settings.py file.:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'django_extensions',
)
Run the shell_plus management command that is part of django-extensions. Use the option --notebook to start a notebook:
python manage.py shell_plus --notebook
Jupyter Notebooks will open automatically in your browser.
Start a new Django Shell-Plus notebook
That's it!
Again, you don't have to run anything in the first cell, and you can corroborate by running dir() to see the names in the current local scope.
Edit:
If you want to put your notebooks in a directory called notebooks at the root directory, you can do the following:
$ mkdir notebooks && cd notebooks
$ python ../manage.py shell_plus --notebook
Thanks to Mark Chackerian whose answer provided the idea to make run the notebooks in a directory other than the project's root.
These are the modules that are imported automatically thanks to shell_plus:
# Shell Plus Model Imports
from django.contrib.admin.models import LogEntry
from django.contrib.auth.models import Group, Permission, User
from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType
from django.contrib.sessions.models import Session
# Shell Plus Django Imports
from django.core.cache import cache
from django.conf import settings
from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model
from django.db import transaction
from django.db.models import Avg, Case, Count, F, Max, Min, Prefetch, Q, Sum, When, Exists, OuterRef, Subquery
from django.utils import timezone
from django.urls import reverse
Actually turns out you (might not) need to do all that crap. Just install django-extensions and run jupyter!
(myprojectvenv)$ cd myproject
(myprojectvenv)$ pip install jupyter
(myprojectvenv)$ pip install django-extensions
(myprojectvenv)$ jupyter notebook
In the browser, start a new "Django Shell-Plus":
And you should be good to go. eg:
from myproject.models import Foobar
Foobar.objects.all()
While the accepted answer from RobM works, it was less clear than it could be and has a few unnecessary steps. Simply put, to run notebooks through Django from a notebook environment outside of the project directory:
Install:
pip install django-extensions
Add 'django-extensions' to your INSTALLED_APPS list in settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS += ['django_extensions']
Run a notebook from within Django, then close it:
python manage.py shell_plus --notebook
This will create your kernel, which we will now edit to point to an absolute path of Python rather than a relative path.
On OSX, the kernel file is at: ~/Library/Jupyter/kernels/django_extensions/kernel.json
On Linux: ~/.jupyter/kernels/django_extensions/kernel.json
We only need to make two changes:
The first is to edit the first value in the "argv" list from "python" to the full address of the python version in your Django virtual environment. E.g.: "/Users/$USERNAME/Documents/PROJECT_FOLDER/venv/bin/python"
Secondly, to the "env" dictionary, add "DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE": "mysite.settings", where mysite is the folder that contains your Django settings.
Optionally, change the value of "display_name".
Now when you run a notebook from any directory, choosing the "Django Shell-Plus" kernel will allow your notebooks to interact with Django. Any packages such as pandas will need to be installed in the Django venv.
The following does work for me using win10, Python 3.5, Django 1.10:
Install Python with the Anaconda distribution so Jupyter will be installed as well
Install Django and install django-extensions:
pip install Django
pip install django-extensions
Start a new Django project. You have to do that in that part of your tree of directories which can be accessed by Jupyter later.
django-admin startproject _myDjangoProject_
Start Jypter
navigate Jupyter to the directory myDjangoProject and enter the first/top myDjangoProject-directory
Start within the first/top myDjangoProject-directory a new Jupyter noteboke: new --> Django Shell-Plus
enter and run the following piece of code :
import os
os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "myDjangoProject.settings")
import django
django.setup()
Note that this piece of code is the same as in manage.py, and note that "myDjangoProject.settings" points to myDjangoProject/settings.py
Now you can start with examples, e.g.:
from django.template import Template, Context
template = Template('The name of this project is {{ projectName }}')
context = Context({'projectName': 'MyJypyterDjangoSite'})
template.render(context)
Run this command.
PYTHONPATH=/path/to/project/root DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=settings python manage.py shell_plus --notebook
I will add some information to the very complete answer of RobM, for the benefit of the very rare developers that use buildout along with djangorecipe djangorecipe as I do... I refer to jupyter lab as I use that but I think all info can be applied to old jupyter notebooks.
When using buildout you end up with a 'bin/django' handler you'll use instead of 'manage.py'. That's the script that defines the whole path. I added one more part in my buildout.cfg:
[ipython]
recipe = zc.recipe.egg
eggs = ${buildout:eggs}
extra-paths = ${buildout:directory}/apps
initialization = import os
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'web.settings'
so that another script named ipython will be created in ./bin directory. I point kernelspec to that interpreter. Moreover I use kernel argument rather than "-m", "ipykernel_launcher" so that the kernel definition I use is:
{
"argv": [
"/misc/src/hg/siti/trepalchi/bin/ipython",
"kernel",
"-f",
"{connection_file}",
"--ext",
"django_extensions.management.notebook_extension"
],
"display_name": "Trepalchi",
"language": "python"
}
Due to how the ipython script is created by buildout there's no need to add environmental variables in my case.
As Rob already mentioned, jupiterlab is only installed in one environment where I start it with the command:
jupyter lab
not in the environment of Django project whare I only install ipykernel (that has already a bunch of 20 dependencies).
Since I tend to have quite a lot of projects I find it usefull to have a single point where I start jupyter lab with many links to the projects so that I can reach them easily. Thanks to the extension provided by django_extension I don't need any extra cell to initialize the notebook.
Any single kernel added in this way can be found with the command:
jupyter kernelspec list
And clearly listed in the launcher of jupyter lab
Is it possible to configure an instance of django.test.client.Client to use a specific virtualenv instead of the OS python install? If so, how?
thanks!
Edit:
I'm using django.test.client.Client from a fabric deploy script, not from within Django itself. Fabric is installed in the virtualenv. So I'm doing something like this:
from django.test.client import Client
response = Client().get(url_path)
if response.status_code == 200: |
return response.content
else:
# handle error
pass
The test client doesn't know or care at all about virtualenvs or Python versions.
As long as you've activated the virtualenv at the time of running the tests, the version of Python within the virtualenv will be used.
The test client will use whatever enviornment Django itself is running in. If you load up a virtualenv with Django installed in it, any management commands will use that Django install.
On my local machine (Mac OSX 10.6) I wrote a django custom admin command which works great. I can use it both within and outside my project directory just fine. For some reason on my CentOS 5.6 server, it won't work from outside the project directory. This is really annoying since using this custom admin command in a cron job requires it to run from the home directory.
in short:
When I run "python ./manage.py scrape" or "python manage.py scrape", everything is fine.
When I run "python /home/[username]/webapps/myproject/manage.py scrape" or "python myproject/manage.py scrape", I get the following error:
unknown command: 'scrape'
Type 'manage.py help' for usage.
On CentOS, when I run manage.py help inside the project directory, scrape shows up as a command; but if I run it outside the project directory, scrape does not appear as a valid command. On OS-X scrape appears as a valid command regardless of where I run manage.py help from.
Any idea how I can fix this?
I know CentOS ships with Python 2.4, so is your code running on 2.4 or are you using a contained environment, this is usually fixed by adding your PYTHONPATH correctly
import sys
print sys.path
verify such for starters
