As the title suggest.
I have searched Google and stackoverflow, so far I don't find any tutorial that doesn't involve (https://github.com/ImperialCollegeLondon/django-drf-filepond).
While this library seems maintain, at 68 stars, too much risk and I prefer to do without it.
What I tried
When you use filepond input tag with class file-uploader file-uploader-grid, in browser, it will compile and generate a div tag.
The issue is that the id in input will be generated under the div instead of input tag.
Without that id, when the form is submitted, self.request.FILES will be empty dictionary.
So I tried writing a JavaScript to add id to input tag, which don't work unfortunately.
Anyone successfully do it in Django without additional library? Thanks
The input generated is only there to catch files, the actual data is either stored in hidden input fields (if you use server property) or encoded in those fields (if you use file encode plugin).
You can set storeAsFile to true to have FilePond update the fileList property of a file field. But that doesn't work on older versions of iOS, see link in property description:

Is there any way to detect if an advanced PDF is being used as a PDF or an email in NetSuite?
I would like to format accordingly.
Something like:
<#if current_format=="email">Show some html stuff.<#else>PDF version</#if>
There is no 'state' information available in to the template generator that I can think of. All it knows is the record context you(or NetSuite) gave it.
The output of the advanced template is XML regardless of its final destination. It's converted to PDF or HTMl output after having been generated. (See: nlapiCreateTemplateRenderer() and nlapiXMLToPDF() documentation in NetSuite for more info.)
If you need to format the content differently, the simplest method is probably to use 2 separate forms.
am using django ckeditor. Any text/content entered into its editor renders raw html output on the webpage.
for ex: this is rendered output of ckeditor field (RichTextField) on a webpage;
<p><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">this is a test file ’s forces durin</span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">galla’s good test is one that fails Thereafter, never to fail in real environment. </span></p>
I have been looking for a solution for a long time now but unable to find one :( There are some questions which are similar but none of those have been able to help. It will be helpful if any changes suggested are provided with the exact location where it needs to be changed. Needless to say I am a newbie.
Thanks
You need to mark the relevant variable that contains the html snippet in your template as safe
Obviously you should be sure, that the text comes from trusted users and is safe, because with the safe filter you are disabling a security feature (autoescaping) that Django applies per default.
If your ckeditor is part of a comment form and your mark the entered text as safe, anybody with access to the form could inject Javascipt and other (potentially nasty) stuff in your page.
The whole story is explained pretty well in the official docs: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/templates/#automatic-html-escaping
I am trying to use Cloudinary as a CDN and am having some trouble getting file uploads to work properly. I have followed their blog posts and website, but am running into a consistent and very annoying error.
I have a model associated with both an image (a cover photo) and a media object (a PDF or ebook, like a .mobi or .epub). I have a model form set up to create an object:
class NewMediaObjectForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = MediaObject
fields = ('cover_photo', ...)
cover_photo = CloudinaryJsFileField(options={'tags': 'cover_photo'})
Now, I've read this tutorial from Cloudinary and I know that their form looks like this:
class NewMediaObjectForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = MediaObject
fields = ('cover_photo', ...)
cover_photo = CloudinaryJsFileField(options={'tags': 'cover_photo'})
Here's my problem: if I match their level of indention, the generated HTML shows that the input field is getting all of the right Cloudinary stuff attached to it - but the upload itself doesn't work. The page simply refreshes with an error message stating that no image was selected. Importantly, I can see from the generated HTML that the tags I've specified are coming through.
If I use method #1, with my indention, the file uploads to Cloudinary but none of my tags are applied. It also treats everything as an image, giving me a "invalid image file" error when trying to upload anything other than images (such as the ebook files I mentioned earlier).
I want both - how can I get this upload field to work AND get it to respect the options I'm trying to define?
(I do have cloudinary.config called in the appropriate views; I do have cloudinary_includes and cloudinary_js_config in the appropriate templates; I've imported everything and am calling cl_init_js_callbacks on the form in the view.)
One more addition - I am running this on a local machine using manage.py's runserver rather than deploying, if that has any impact on the configuration.
UPDATE:
I found something I was doing wrong. I've fixed it and made things worse.
The necessary jQuery was not being loaded. Now I am loading it, but the upload button simply doesn't function. I press the button, I select the file, the select dialog disappears, and it shows that no file has been selected. However, I can see that the tags are being passed to the generated HTML, so it's a step in the right direction. Any ideas?
Please forgive me. This was a PEBCAK issue; I will leave this visible for anyone else who may make the same mistakes I've made in the future.
Make sure the proper jQuery scripts are being loaded - open the Chrome developer console, Firebug, whatever and double check. Then, make sure they're being loaded after the DOM so that there are elements for the script to attach to.
Cloudinary will expect html/cloudinary_cors.htmlto be accessible in your static directory.
Either I have broken something, or the default behavior for this particular type of ModelField is to simply IMMEDIATELY upload the selected file and continue displaying "No File Chosen." I thought that nothing was happening and was very surprised when I saw 50+ images successfully uploaded.
I'm writing a Django app to serve some documentation written in RestructuredText.
I have many documents written in *.rst, each of them is quite long with many section, subsection and so on.
Display the whole document in a single page is not a problem using Django filters, but I'd rather have just the topic index on a first page, whit links to an URL where I can display a single section / subsection (which will need some 'previous | up | home | next' link I guess...). In a way similar to a 'multiple HTML page output' as in a docbook / XML to HTML conversion.
Can anyone point me to some direction to build a document tree of a *.rst document an parse a single section of it, or suggest a clever way to obtain a similar result?
Choice 1. Include URL links to the other parts of the document.
You write an index.rst, part1.rst, part2.rst, etc. And your index.rst has links to the other parts. This requires almost no work, except careful planning to make sure that your RST HTML links are correct.
There's no "parse". You just break your document into sections. Manually.
[This seems so obvious, I'm afraid to mention it.]
Choice 2. Use Sphinx. It manages table-of-contents and inter-document connections very nicely.
However, the Sphinx extensions to RST aren't handled directly by Django, so you'd need to save the Sphinx output and then display that in Django. We use the JSON HTML Builder (http://sphinx.pocoo.org/builders.html?highlight=json#sphinx.builders.html.JSONHTMLBuilder) output from Sphinx. Then we render these documents through a template.
i am trying to find out, how to get input from html inputs using c++. In windows you can send WM_GETTEXT to the window and it returns text, that you wanted. But is there any way to do the same thing in web interface?.
I am not interesting in sniffing packets now.
For example. Some site has html intput which expects name. I write name to the input. And then i want to catch it with my program
If I understood correctly what you want to do, you have to set up a web server that calls your C++ application via CGI. So, you'll have an HTML page (static or generated by your program) that will contain a form, that refers to the URL of your application. So, when the user will click Submit, the browser will issue a request to the webserver, which in turn will call your application, passing to it the various POST/GET parameters related to the form.
Your application then can process the data, extracting such parameters from the environment variables (if the data is passed using the GET method) or from the standard input (if the POST method is used). To generate the output page (along with the output HTTP header) you'll simply have to write it to the standard output.
One thing I can think of (if you're using Linux) is using wget via system() from within your C++ app.
Wget to fetch the html page and output it to a file, parse the file for the URL of the form and data that it needs, pass the response as POST / GET via wget and so on.
That is, if I understood what you meant by "do it from existing page" correctly.
