Django | Cookbook

Installation

Install current Version (3.2.8)

❯ pip install django==3.2.8

Install next Version (4.0)

❯ pip install --pre django

Check installed version

❯ python -m django --version
❯ django-admin.exe version

First steps

The following steps are based on a summary of the Django Tutorial

Create project

django-admin startproject main
cd working_with_django
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py runserver 8080
python manage.py startapp app_base

Create view

Create view in app_base/views.py

from django.http import HttpResponse

def index(request):
    return HttpResponse("Hello, world. You're at the polls index.")

Add view to app_base/urls.py

from django.urls import path
from . import views

urlpatterns = [
    path('', views.index, name='index'),
]

Add urls to project main/urls.py

from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import include, path

urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    path('app_base/', include('app_base.urls')),
]

Create admin user

$ python manage.py createsuperuser
Username (leave blank to use 'user'): admin
Email address: admin@localhost
Password: 
Password (again): 
Superuser created successfully.

Create data and database

Create database model in app_base/models.py

from django.db import models

class Question(models.Model):
    question_text = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published')

class Choice(models.Model):
    question = models.ForeignKey(Question, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
    choice_text = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    votes = models.IntegerField(default=0)

Activating models in main/settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'app_base.apps.AppBaseConfig',

    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
]
$ python manage.py makemigrations app_base
$ python manage.py sqlmigrate app_base 0001

Make app modifiable in the admin (app_base/admin.py)

from django.contrib import admin
from .models import Question

admin.site.register(Question)

Writing more views

Create views in app_base/views.py

def detail(request, question_id):
    return HttpResponse("You're looking at question

def results(request, question_id):
    response = "You're looking at the results of question
    return HttpResponse(response

def vote(request, question_id):
    return HttpResponse("You're voting on question

Add new views into app_base/urls.py

from django.urls import path
from . import views

urlpatterns = [
    path('', views.index, name='index'),

    path('<int:question_id>/', views.detail, name='detail'),
    path('<int:question_id>/results/', views.results, name='results'),
    path('<int:question_id>/vote/', views.vote, name='vote'),
]

Add template in app_base/templates/polls/index.html

    <ul>
    
        <li><a href="/polls/{{ question.id }}/">{{ question.question_text }}</a></li>
    
    </ul>

    <p>No polls are available.</p>




Modify view in app_base/views.py

from django.shortcuts import render
...
def index(request):
    latest_question_list = Question.objects.order_by('-pub_date')[:5]
    context = {'latest_question_list': latest_question_list}
    return render(request, 'polls/index.html', context)

Raising a 404 error in app_base/views.py

from django.http import HttpResponse
from django.shortcuts import render, get_object_or_404

from .models import Question
# ...
def detail(request, question_id):
    question = get_object_or_404(Question, pk=question_id)
    return render(request, 'polls/detail.html', {'question': question})

Create template app_base/templates/polls/detail.html

<h1>{{ question.question_text }}</h1>
<ul>

    <li>{{ choice.choice_text }}</li>

</ul>

Removing hardcoded URLs in app_base/templates/polls/index.html

<li>
   <a href="
</li>

The way this works is by looking up the URL definition as specified in the app_base/urs.py

...
# the 'name' value as called by the 
path('<int:question_id>/', views.detail, name='detail'),
...

Namespacing URL names in app_base/urls.py

app_name = 'app_base'

urlpatterns = [
...

Then, modify link in app_base/templates/polls/index.html

from url ‘detail’ to url ‘app_base:detail’

<li>
    <a href="
</li>

Use generic views: Less code is better

Create class in app_views/views.py

class HomeView(generic.TemplateView):
    template_name = 'index.html'

Create template app_views/templates/index.html

<h1>App Views:</h1>
Welcome

Modify app_views/urls.py

urlpatterns = [
    path('', views.HomeView.as_view(), name='home'),
]

Add another app to main project

Create app

$ python manage.py startapp app_view

Modify main/urls.py

urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/',     admin.site.urls),
    path('app_base/',  include('app_base.urls')),
    path('app_views/', include('app_views.urls')),
]

Add data model in app_views/models.py

from django.db import models

class DataItem(models.Model):
    text = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    data = models.IntegerField(default=0)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.text

Register data in app_views/admin.py

from django.contrib import admin
from .models import DataItem

admin.site.register(DataItem)

Activate models

$ python manage.py makemigrations app_views
$ python manage.py sqlmigrate app_views 0001
$ python manage.py migrate app_views

Navigation / Redirection

Set root page of Django project

When accessing your Django project, the root page will normaly doesn’n show your app homepage.

To change this, you hate to modiy the url handling.

In the following sample, replace <appname> with the name of your app

Define a redirection view in your app (/<appname>/urls.py)

def redirect_to_home(request):
    return redirect('/<appname>')

Define path in the global urls.py (/main/urls.py)

from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import include, path
from django.shortcuts import redirect

from <appname> import views

urlpatterns = [
    path('',            views.redirect_to_home, name='home'),
    path('<appname>/',  include('<appname>.urls')),
    path('admin/',      admin.site.urls)
]

Highlight current page in navigation menu

<div class="list-group">
    <a href="
            Basic Upload
    </a>
    <a href="
            Progress Bar Upload
    </a>
</div>

Resolving problems

Wrong template is used

The template system is using a search approach to find the specified template file, e.g. ‘home.html’.

If you created more than one apps with the same filenames for templates, the first one will be used.

Change the template folders and add the app name, e.g.

template/
        app_base/
                home.html

Resolving error messages and erors

‘app_name’ is not a registered namespace

One reason for this error is the usage of a namespace in a link.

Back to <a href="



If you want to use this way of links, you have to define the namespace/appname in your <app>/urls.py file

app_name = 'app_views'
urlpatterns = [
    path('', views.HomeView.as_view(), name='home'),
]

dependencies reference nonexistent parent node

  • Recreate database and migration files
  • Remove all migration files under */migrations/00*.py
  • Remove all pycache folders under */__pycache__ and */*/__pycache__
  • Run migration again
$ python manage.py makemigrations
$ python manage migrate

ValueError: Dependency on app with no migrations: customuser

$ python manage.py makemigrations

Kubernetes | Cheat Sheet

Readings

Kubectl autocomplete

BASH

source < (kubectl completion bash) # setup autocomplete in bash into the current shell, bash-completion package should be installed first.
echo "source <(kubectl completion bash)" >> ~/.bashrc

You can also use a shorthand alias for kubectl that also works with completion:

alias k=kubectl
complete -F __start_kubectl k

ZSH

source <(kubectl completion zsh)  # setup autocomplete in zsh into the current shell
echo "[[ $commands[kubectl] ]] && source <(kubectl completion zsh)" >> ~/.zshrc # add autocomplete permanently to your zsh shell

Kubectl context and configuration

Set which Kubernetes cluster kubectl communicates with and modifies configuration information. See Authenticating Across Clusters with kubeconfig documentation for detailed config file information.

kubectl config view # Show Merged kubeconfig settings.
# use multiple kubeconfig files at the same time and view merged config
KUBECONFIG=~/.kube/config:~/.kube/kubconfig2 
kubectl config view
# get the password for the e2e user
kubectl config view -o jsonpath='{.users[?(@.name == "e2e")].user.password}'
kubectl config view -o jsonpath='{.users[].name}'    # display the first user
kubectl config view -o jsonpath='{.users[*].name}'   # get a list of users
kubectl config get-contexts                          # display list of contexts 
kubectl config current-context                       # display the current-context
kubectl config use-context my-cluster-name           # set the default context to my-cluster-name
# add a new user to your kubeconf that supports basic auth
kubectl config set-credentials kubeuser/foo.kubernetes.com --username=kubeuser --password=kubepassword
# permanently save the namespace for all subsequent kubectl commands in that context.
kubectl config set-context --current --namespace=ggckad-s2
# set a context utilizing a specific username and namespace.
kubectl config set-context gce --user=cluster-admin --namespace=foo 
  && kubectl config use-context gce
kubectl config unset users.foo                       # delete user foo

Kubectl apply

apply manages applications through files defining Kubernetes resources. It creates and updates resources in a cluster through running kubectl apply. This is the recommended way of managing Kubernetes applications on production. See Kubectl Book.

Creating objects

Kubernetes manifests can be defined in YAML or JSON. The file extension .yaml.yml, and .json can be used.

kubectl apply -f ./my-manifest.yaml            # create resource(s)
kubectl apply -f ./my1.yaml -f ./my2.yaml      # create from multiple files
kubectl apply -f ./dir                         # create resource(s) in all manifest files in dir
kubectl apply -f https://git.io/vPieo          # create resource(s) from url
kubectl create deployment nginx --image=nginx  # start a single instance of nginx
# create a Job which prints "Hello World"
kubectl create job hello --image=busybox -- echo "Hello World" 
# create a CronJob that prints "Hello World" every minute
kubectl create cronjob hello --image=busybox   --schedule="*/1 * * * *" -- echo "Hello World"    
kubectl explain pods                           # get the documentation for pod manifests
# Create multiple YAML objects from stdin
cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f -
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: busybox-sleep
spec:
  containers:
  - name: busybox
    image: busybox
    args:
    - sleep
    - "1000000"
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: busybox-sleep-less
spec:
  containers:
  - name: busybox
    image: busybox
    args:
    - sleep
    - "1000"
EOF
# Create a secret with several keys
cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f -
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: mysecret
type: Opaque
data:
  password: $(echo -n "s33msi4" | base64 -w0)
  username: $(echo -n "jane" | base64 -w0)
EOF

Updating resources

kubectl set image deployment/frontend www=image:v2               # Rolling update "www" containers of "frontend" deployment, updating the image
kubectl rollout history deployment/frontend                      # Check the history of deployments including the revision

kubectl rollout undo deployment/frontend --to-revision=2         # Rollback to a specific revision
kubectl rollout status -w deployment/frontend                    # Watch rolling update status of "frontend" deployment until completion
kubectl rollout restart deployment/frontend                      # Rolling restart of the "frontend" deployment
cat pod.json | kubectl replace -f -                              # Replace a pod based on the JSON passed into std
# Force replace, delete and then re-create the resource. Will cause a service outage.
kubectl replace --force -f ./pod.json
# Create a service for a replicated nginx, which serves on port 80 and connects to the containers on port 8000
kubectl expose rc nginx --port=80 --target-port=8000
# Update a single-container pod's image version (tag) to v4
kubectl get pod mypod -o yaml | sed 's/(image: myimage):.*$/1:v4/' | kubectl replace -f -
kubectl label pods my-pod new-label=awesome                      # Add a Label
kubectl annotate pods my-pod icon-url=http://goo.gl/XXBTWq       # Add an annotation
kubectl autoscale deployment foo --min=2 --max=10                # Auto scale a deployment "foo"

Patching resources

# Partially update a node
kubectl patch node k8s-node-1 -p '{"spec":{"unschedulable":true}}'
# Update a container's image; spec.containers[*].name is required because it's a merge key
kubectl patch pod valid-pod -p '{"spec":{"containers":[{"name":"kubernetes-serve-hostname","image":"new image"}]}}'
# Update a container's image using a json patch with positional arrays
kubectl patch pod valid-pod --type='json' -p='[{"op": "replace", "path": "/spec/containers/0/image", "value":"new image"}]'
# Disable a deployment livenessProbe using a json patch with positional arrays
kubectl patch deployment valid-deployment  --type json   -p='[{"op": "remove", "path": "/spec/template/spec/containers/0/livenessProbe"}]'
# Add a new element to a positional array
kubectl patch sa default --type='json' -p='[{"op": "add", "path": "/secrets/1", "value": {"name": "whatever" } }]'

Editing resources

Edit any API resource in your preferred editor.

kubectl edit svc/docker-registry                      # Edit the service named docker-registry
KUBE_EDITOR="nano" kubectl edit svc/docker-registry   # Use an alternative editor

Scaling resources

kubectl scale --replicas=3 rs/foo                                 # Scale a replicaset named 'foo' to 3
kubectl scale --replicas=3 -f foo.yaml                            # Scale a resource specified in "foo.yaml" to 3
kubectl scale --current-replicas=2 --replicas=3 deployment/mysql  # If the deployment named mysql's current size is 2, scale mysql to 3
kubectl scale --replicas=5 rc/foo rc/bar rc/baz                   # Scale multiple replication controllers

Deleting resources

kubectl delete -f ./pod.json                                              # Delete a pod using the type and name specified in pod.json
kubectl delete pod,service baz foo                                        # Delete pods and services with same names "baz" and "foo"
kubectl delete pods,services -l name=myLabel                              # Delete pods and services with label name=myLabel
kubectl -n my-ns delete pod,svc --all                                      # Delete all pods and services in namespace my-ns,
# Delete all pods matching the awk pattern1 or pattern2
kubectl get pods  -n mynamespace --no-headers=true | awk '/pattern1|pattern2/{print $1}' | xargs  kubectl delete -n mynamespace pod

Interacting with running Pods

kubectl logs my-pod                                 # dump pod logs (stdout)
kubectl logs -l name=myLabel                        # dump pod logs, with label name=myLabel (stdout)
kubectl logs my-pod --previous                      # dump pod logs (stdout) for a previous instantiation of a container
kubectl logs my-pod -c my-container                 # dump pod container logs (stdout, multi-container case)
kubectl logs -l name=myLabel -c my-container        # dump pod logs, with label name=myLabel (stdout)
kubectl logs my-pod -c my-container --previous      # dump pod container logs (stdout, multi-container case) for a previous instantiation of a container
kubectl logs -f my-pod                              # stream pod logs (stdout)
kubectl logs -f my-pod -c my-container              # stream pod container logs (stdout, multi-container case)
kubectl logs -f -l name=myLabel --all-containers    # stream all pods logs with label name=myLabel (stdout)
kubectl run -i --tty busybox --image=busybox -- sh  # Run pod as interactive shell
kubectl run nginx --image=nginx -n 
mynamespace                                         # Run pod nginx in a specific namespace
kubectl run nginx --image=nginx                     # Run pod nginx and write its spec into a file called pod.yaml
--dry-run=client -o yaml > pod.yaml
kubectl attach my-pod -i                            # Attach to Running Container
kubectl port-forward my-pod 5000:6000               # Listen on port 5000 on the local machine and forward to port 6000 on my-pod
kubectl exec my-pod -- ls /                         # Run command in existing pod (1 container case)
kubectl exec --stdin --tty my-pod -- /bin/sh        # Interactive shell access to a running pod (1 container case)

Interacting with Nodes and cluster

kubectl cordon my-node                                                # Mark my-node as unschedulable
kubectl drain my-node                                                 # Drain my-node in preparation for maintenance
kubectl uncordon my-node                                              # Mark my-node as schedulable
kubectl top node my-node                                              # Show metrics for a given node
kubectl cluster-info                                                  # Display addresses of the master and services
kubectl cluster-info dump                                             # Dump current cluster state to stdout
kubectl cluster-info dump --output-directory=/path/to/cluster-state   # Dump current cluster state to /path/to/cluster-state
# If a taint with that key and effect already exists, its value is replaced as specified.
kubectl taint nodes foo dedicated=special-user:NoSchedule

Resource types

List all supported resource types along with their shortnames, API group, whether they are namespaced, and Kind:

kubectl api-resources

Other operations for exploring API resources:

kubectl api-resources --namespaced=true      # All namespaced resources
kubectl api-resources --namespaced=false     # All non-namespaced resources
kubectl api-resources -o name                # All resources with simple output (just the resource name)
kubectl api-resources -o wide                # All resources with expanded (aka "wide") output
kubectl api-resources --verbs=list,get       # All resources that support the "list" and "get" request verbs
kubectl api-resources --api-group=extensions # All resources in the "extensions" API group

Formatting output

To output details to your terminal window in a specific format, add the -o (or --output) flag to a supported kubectl command.

Output formatDescription
-o=custom-columns=<spec>Print a table using a comma separated list of custom columns
-o=custom-columns-file=<filename>Print a table using the custom columns template in the <filename> file
-o=jsonOutput a JSON formatted API object
-o=jsonpath=<template>Print the fields defined in a jsonpath expression
-o=jsonpath-file=<filename>Print the fields defined by the jsonpath expression in the <filename> file
-o=namePrint only the resource name and nothing else
-o=wideOutput in the plain-text format with any additional information, and for pods, the node name is included
-o=yamlOutput a YAML formatted API object

Examples using -o=custom-columns:

# All images running in a cluster
kubectl get pods -A -o=custom-columns='DATA:spec.containers[*].image'
 # All images excluding "k8s.gcr.io/coredns:1.6.2"
kubectl get pods -A -o=custom-columns='DATA:spec.containers[?(@.image!="k8s.gcr.io/coredns:1.6.2")].image'
# All fields under metadata regardless of name
kubectl get pods -A -o=custom-columns='DATA:metadata.*'

More examples in the kubectl reference documentation.

Kubectl output verbosity and debugging

Kubectl verbosity is controlled with the -v or --v flags followed by an integer representing the log level. General Kubernetes logging conventions and the associated log levels are described here.

VerbosityDescription
--v=0Generally useful for this to always be visible to a cluster operator.
--v=1A reasonable default log level if you don’t want verbosity.
--v=2Useful steady state information about the service and important log messages that may correlate to significant changes in the system. This is the recommended default log level for most systems.
--v=3Extended information about changes.
--v=4Debug level verbosity.
--v=6Display requested resources.
--v=7Display HTTP request headers.
--v=8Display HTTP request contents.
--v=9Display HTTP request contents without truncation of contents.
