I´m trying to install bower on a django project I have.
I executed both:
npm install -g bower
and
pip install django-bower
if I writebower --version
I get:1.4
however on my django project when writing
py manage.py bower install
or
py manage.py bower_install
I get Unknown Command: 'bower'
This is my setting.py

Can anyone tell me what I´m doing wrong?
bower is installed on my computer but somehow I cannot get the manage.py script to recrognize it as a valid command. Maybe I forgot something on the manage.py?
Thanks for the help.
As referenced here: https://github.com/nvbn/django-bower/issues/34
./manage.py bower_install
Hope this works.
I'm newbie in django and I started learning django with official tutorial.
I use django beside virtualenv, but I have a problem with
the login page and admin page because
they aren't load css and show login
page and admin page without any style

STATIC_URL = '/static/'
First of all, Create folder named as "static", then you need to copy all the css/js file into static folder inside your project(or wherever you create static folder). Then declare the static files directory path in your settings.py
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATICFILES_DIRS = ('assets', BASE_DIR +'/static/',)
In your html file, add following line - {% load staticfiles %} at top of the header section or top of the file.
In <head> section you can link the css/js file using following code
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static 'assets/css/mystyle.css'%}">
</link>
<script src="{% static 'assets/js/jquery.js'%}"></script>
You need to read through the documentation for serving static files. When you are in production, your webserver (nginx/apache) would be responsible for serving static files such as JS, CSS and images. So any request for an image or JS file would be taken care of immediately by the webserver while any request for an actual page would be passed to your application server (i.e. Django)
In development you need to tell the development server to actually serve your static files so you need to add the following to your root urls.py file:
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static
urlpatterns = [
# ... the rest of your URLconf goes here ...
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
There are two situations that you maybe fail to load CSS files.
login Interceptor catch all the request, including your static files
browser cannot access your CSS files.
It is easy to judge what situation you are in. You can open your browser and check whether your CSS request is received. (for example, open your Chrome by F12 and check Console).
If there is not an error about failing to receive. Maybe your login Interceptor has caught all the things. And then, you can dig into what you received, at that you will find the answer. on my case, I find the response is my login page, not my ccs file.
You should let them go like this.
if static('') in request.path:
return self.get_response(request)
If received, you can see other answers.
(My English is not very good. If you want, you can edit this answer.)
I have recently started a Digital Ocean server with a pre-installed Django image on Ubuntu 14.04. I wanted to create an API, and have decided on the Django Rest Framework. I installed the Django Rest Framework exactly according to http://www.django-rest-framework.org/.
Here is what the tutorial site looks like when I access it on my server.
As you can see, it does not look like the site on the rest framework tutorial website. This is because of the fact that when I view the source code of my site, all of the /static/rest_framework/* files give me a 404 error.
Here is my settings.py file in the Django 'django_project' root directory.

I now have a folder named 'static' right next to my settings.py file in my django_project folder with all necessary resources such as 'rest_framework' and 'admin'. I restarted gunicorn after this change and reloaded my web page and it worked!
Thanks to those of you who tried to help, you did lead me in the right direction and probably made this go by a lot faster.
First, You need to set static url and static root in django settings.py
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static")
Then collect all static files
python manage.py collectstatic
In my case I was relying on Gunicorn to run the server.
I tried updating my settings.py file by following the above threads but unfortunately nothing seemed to work for me.
In the end I scratched my head around DRF docs specially this part https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/static-files/
I managed to solve this problem by updating by urls.py as following.
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static
urlpatterns = [
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
] + static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)
Then updating my settings.py as follows.
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'staticfiles')
And now execute => python manage.py collectstatic
I did this tens of times and I was going insane over it. I had DEBUG = False.
If you're using Heroku to serve your website, try this link. It worked for me.
https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/django-assets
In Summary:
Make a static folder if you don't have one already. (put it on the same level as your manage.py file)
Add the Python package to the folder (Copy this folder into the static folder --> C:\Python37_64\Lib\site-packages\rest_framework)
Add the code below to your project.
settings.py
...
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))

I had the same issue when I started learning python. I fixed by making below changes in settings.py of my project
DEBUG = True
I was unable to get any of the above solutions to work on our webapp, but discovered that if the app can connect to an S3 bucket where it can access deployed static files, django rest_framework works pretty seemlessly (as discussed here). Here's the relevant code for our settings.py:
aws = pcfenv.get_service(label='aws-s3') # or however you are accessing your s3 bucket & credentials
if aws is not None:
keys = aws.credentials
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID = keys["access_key_id"]
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY = keys["secret_access_key"]
AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME = keys["bucket"]
AWS_S3_CUSTOM_DOMAIN = '%s.s3.amazonaws.com' % AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME
AWS_S3_OBJECT_PARAMETERS = {
'CacheControl': 'max-age=86400',
}
AWS_LOCATION = 'static'
STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'storages.backends.s3boto3.S3Boto3Storage'
STATIC_URL = "https://%s/%s/" % (AWS_S3_CUSTOM_DOMAIN, AWS_LOCATION)
DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE = 'mysite.storage_backends.MediaStorage'
# static files
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = 'static/'
# local storage
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')
MEDIA_URL = '/media/uploads/'
You'll need to pip install the boto3 and django-storages dependencies for it all to work.
you need both:
REST_FRAMEWORK = {
# Use hyperlinked styles by default.
# Only used if the `serializer_class` attribute is not set on a view.
'DEFAULT_MODEL_SERIALIZER_CLASS':
'rest_framework.serializers.HyperlinkedModelSerializer',
# Use Django's standard `django.contrib.auth` permissions,
# or allow read-only access for unauthenticated users.
'DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES': [
'rest_framework.permissions.DjangoModelPermissionsOrAnonReadOnly'
]
}
and
the
python manage.py collectstatic
with the relevant directories set up.
the latter without the former won't do the work.
In debug mode, no changes are required.
If you are in a production environment, you need to set the static files point, usually set in nginx
location /static {
alias /<your app>/static; # your Django project's static files - amend as required
}
I have been trying out the Django tutorialDjango Tutorial Page 3 and encountered this error
"TemplateDoesNotExist at /polls/ " .
I assume the problem is with my code pointing the templates file index.html. This is my file structure for index.html: mysite/polls/templates/polls.
I am copying my settings.py and views.py here.
settings.py
TEMPLATE_DIRS = [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')]

from django.template import RequestContext, loader
from polls.models import Poll
# Create your views here.
#def index(request):
#return HttpResponse("Hello, world. You are at the poll index.")
def index(request):
latest_poll_list = Poll.objects.order_by('-pub_date')[:5]
template = loader.get_template('polls/index.html')
context = RequestContext(request, {

Whoa whoa whoa. Let's not advocate non re-usability of apps.
For templates that don't fit anywhere else (usually your base template, maybe some partial templates like form includes, etc.), it's fine to put them in your root templates directory (ie. /path/to/project/templates/base.html). You would refer to them in a view for rendering as base.html.
For other templates, I would advise you put them in the directory of the app that contains the views that render to those templates. For example, your polls index would go somewhere such as /path/to/project/polls/templates/polls/index.html.
The extra polls directory may look redundant there, but the reason is that the django template loader will (logically) dump all your templates in one directory. So we use the second polls directory to differentiate between multiple index.html templates that may exist. So in your view, you would use polls/index.html as normal.
The reason that this is a Good Thing is that it makes your apps more easily reusable. Written one polls app? You've written them all. If you do this, and also keep your app specific static files (js, css, images, etc.) in your app's static directory, and have a urls.py for each app, generally all you will need to do to move your app from one project to another is copy the directory, add to the new project's INSTALLED_APPS, and include the urls from your base urls.py. And of course, modify the app in any way you need to for the new project.
It also means if you're using an editor with sidebar navigation (most of them, these days), you don't have to scroll all the way down to your templates to find the template for that app. When you start working on large projects this gets tedious, fast.
The only thing to remember in using this technique is that you must have django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader in your TEMPLATE_LOADERS setting. This is the default so you usually won't have to worry about it.
There is a nice guide for this in the django docs: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/intro/reusable-apps/
To answer the question you actually asked:
Your index.html should be here: C:\Python34\mysite\polls\templates\polls\index.html. If it isn't, that's what you're doing wrong.
On a related note, you probably shouldn't have your project in the Python directory.
Try to put template folder in projects root folder:
mysite/templates/polls/index.html
Explanation
Your template dirs is
TEMPLATE_DIRS = [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')]
It containts only one directory: /path/to/your/project/templates
And your index.html located in /path/to/your/project/polls/templates
Update
As you say it doesn't work with templates stored in mysite/templates/polls/index.html let's try this way:
go to mysite and run
python manage.py shell
to run interactive interpreter with mysite as context. Then run this:
from settings import TEMPLATE_DIRS
print TEMPLATE_DIRS
it will output something like
('/var/www/mithril/templates/', '/home/dmitry/proj/mithril/templates/')
Django uses this directories to find your templates.
Thus you should put directory polls/ in folder from TEMPLATE_DIRS.
You forgot to add your app config in the INSTALLED_APP in settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = (
'polls.apps.PollsConfig',
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
)
The startapp command creates an apps.py file. Since it doesn’t use default_app_config (a
discouraged API), you must specify the app config’s path, e.g. 'polls.apps.PollsConfig', in
INSTALLED_APPS for it to be used (instead of just 'polls').
I was having the same problem and I noticed there was another HTML file named index in site-packages. So I just changed my current HTML file to index1 and it worked.
Try to replace:
template = loader.get_template('polls/index.html')
with this:
template = loader.get_template('index.html')
Check if you forgot the 's' in
/polls/template
its
'/polls/templates' folder.
In your settings.py file, add this
TEMPLATE_DIR = os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'templates')
And then in TEMPLATES DIRS, add this,
TEMPLATES = [
{
...
'DIRS': [TEMPLATE_DIR,],
...
},]
The issue is with your folder structure. Since you are inside the polls folder, you should have this template = loader.get_template('index.html') instead of template = loader.get_template('polls/index.html')
This is because of how the python path works, see here OS Path
You follow this structure,
mysite/
mysite/
templates/
polls/
index.html
there's something suspect to your TEMPLATE_DIRS path. It should point to the root of your template directory.
import os
PROJECT_PATH = os.path.realpath(os.path.dirname(__file__))
...
TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates'),
)
In your error log django searching these paths,
C:\Python34\mysite\templates\polls\index.html
C:\Python34\mysite\polls\templates\polls\index.html
Make sure you didn't misspell detail.html as details.html. This was my problem.
you should have placed your templates inside poll app inside templates/polls/ structured. Such that the full path will look like mysite/polls/templates/polls/file.html
I had the same issue running through the tutorial. None of the above answers worked for me.
my solution:
make sure when you are saving your html files, click SAVE AS and then click the file type and click "All Files". My index.html file was actually index.html.txt and was not being found.
I'm trying to get django-guardian to work with my app. I followed the installation and configuration steps in the django-guardian documentation. It fails to assign permissions with the "ImproperlyConfigured: AUTH_USER_MODEL refers to model 'auth.User' that has not been installed".
I've read the related Django docs and understand that the AUTH_USER_MODEL setting uses the "app_label.UserModel" format when using a custom user model. I'm not using a custom user model but the default django one.
All issues and solutions I found in the internets were related to custom user models which I don't think applies to me.
I'm using django 1.6.1 and django-guardian 1.1.1. dj-guardaian tutorial:
http://django-guardian.readthedocs.org/en/latest/userguide/assign.html
I tried to set the settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'guardian.User' to no avail.
Any help appreciated!
Cheers
These are the exact steps (after importing settings):
>>> from django.contrib.auth.models import User
>>> john = User.objects.get(id=2)
>>> john
<User: john>
>>> from mtm.models import Sharing
>>> obj = Sharing.objects.get(id=1)
>>> obj
<Sharing: Sharing object>
>>> john.has_perm('mtm.change_sharing', obj)
False
>>> from guardian.shortcuts import assign_perm
>>> assign_perm('mtm.change_sharing', john, obj)
Traceback (most recent call last):
