I have a flask app that executes scripts using exec(script_name, globals()) and is running in Google Cloud Run using a docker. All my scripts are in Google Cloud storage. So I use gcsfs module to read the scripts from GCS and execute.
For eg:
exec(gcs_file_system.open(<script_from_cloud>).read(), globals())
But the problem I am facing is that, whenever there is a new package to be imported, I need to first install that package through my flask app using exec() function. As far, I have tried using
1. exec("os.system('pip install package_name')", globals())
2. exec("subprocess.check_call([sys.executable, '-m', 'pip', 'install', package_name])", globals())
3. import pip
pip.main(['install', package_name])
4. import pip
exec("pip.main(['install', package_name])", globals())
5. os.system('pip install package_name')
6. subprocess.check_call([sys.executable, '-m', 'pip', 'install', package_name])
All these were tried executing in a script script.py which i call using
exec(gcs_file_system.open('bucket_name..../script.py').read())
Everytime i try any of these, I either get an upstream disconnect error or the script simply fails. I really need some help or suggestion on how to install a package through a flask app that is running in the cloud (Google Cloud Run).
Installing a package can be done by defining another route function just for installing a package.
This was done by providing the below statement in a separate route function rather than specifying to install the package in another exec(script) function inside a route function.
exec("os.system('pip install " + str(packages) + "')", globals())
Server.py
#app.route('/add_package', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def add_package():
return render_template('add_package.html')
#app.route('/add_package_success', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def add_package_success():
code_content = request.form.get("code_editor", "").split("\n")
for empties in range(code_content.count("")):
code_content.remove("")
code_content = [packages.strip().replace("\n", "") for packages in code_content]
for packages in code_content:
exec("os.system('pip install " + str(packages) + "')", globals())
return render_template('add_package_success.html')

I am trying to build a web-app which extracts and inputs information about different city buildings using Python, Flask and HTML. At the moment I want to create a button which after clicking it will give me a list of all the buildings available on the database. The database is populated and stored in PostgreSQL. The problem is that the button is created and displayed but the list is not. I used the second answer on this link as a reference.
My Python code looks like as follows :
app = flask.Flask(__name__)
#app.route('/')
def home():
return flask.render_template('interface.html')
#app.route('/GetBuildingsLists', methods = ['GET','POST'])
def GetBuildingsLists():
print('Connecting to the PostgreSQL database...')
db = pg.connect(
host="****",
database="****",
user ="****",
password="*****")
db_cursor = db.cursor()
print('PostgreSQL database version:')
db_cursor.execute('SELECT version()')
q = ("SELECT building_id FROM table1")
db_cursor.execute(q)
buildings = db_cursor.fetchall()
unique_buildings = list(dict.fromkeys(buildings))
db_cursor.close()
#print(unique_buildings)
return flask.render_template('interfaceLists.html', unique_buildings = unique_buildings)
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run()
Meanwhile, on a template folder I have interfaceLists.html as below :
<html>
<head>
<title>Results</title>
<style>
.links-unordered {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
}
.links-unordered {
margin-top: 20px;
min-height: 30px;
}
.links-unordered .toggle-button {
text-decoration: none;
padding: 12px 16px 12px 16px;
transition: 0.2s;
border: 1px solid black;
}
.links-unordered .toggle-button:hover,

}

line-height: 25px;
padding-left: 15px;
}
.links-unordered a {
text-decoration: none;
color: black;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="demo_script_src.js"></script>
<div class="links-unordered">
<a class="toggle-button" href="#">Buildings</a>
{% for building in unique_buildings %}
<ul style="display:none;">
<li>building[0]</li>
</ul>
{% endfor %}
</div>
</body>
</html>
I take the results from the PostgreSQL using a query in the python code and store them in the list called unique_buildings. I have tried to display afterwards the results as an unordered list but the list is not displayed.
The .js file mention in the HTML file performs the animation while using the button and it looks like this :
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".toggle-button").click(function() {
$(this).parent().find("ul").slideToggle(function() {
// Animation complete.
});
});
})
Can someone please help me by telling what might be wrong with my script and why what I want is not working? Thank you!!
I'm having trouble linking my static "css" file. When I run the code I only get my basic html and not the css. When I use the html element all of my css code work fine. Here is my code:
h1 {
padding: 60px;
text-align: center;
background: #1abc9c;
color: white;
font-size: 30px;
}
.header {
padding: 60px;

background: #1abc9c;
color: white;
font-size: 30px;
}
.sidebar {

position: sticky;
top: 0px;

Here is my python code also in case that is causing a problem:
from flask import Flask, render_template, redirect, url_for
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config['ENV'] = 'development'
app.config['DEBUG'] = True
app.config['TESTING'] = True
app.static_folder = 'static'
#app.route('/')
def index():
return render_template('base.html')
#app.route('/<name>')
def user(name):
return f"Hello {name}!"
#app.route('/admin')
def admin():
return redirect(url_for('index', name='Admin'))
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run()
Thanks for any help. Sorry if the code is messy, I'm a rookie :).
In addition to the answer given above, this might also occur sometimes if your browser has already cached the CSS file. You can force your browser to refresh the contents using Ctrl+f5 on your keyboard each time you add new code in your style.css file.
This may be an issue with the structure of your application. Consider this structure:
project_folder
| --- app/
| --- templates/
| --- index.html
| --- static/
| --- style.css
The templates sub-folder should be at the same location as the static sub-folder. Your link should work just with this structure.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{{ url_for('static', filename='style.css') }}">
I´ve been looking for answers and just lost the sight in all the different ones here.
I am bulding a tool, where you can enter a funding ID (included in papers) and a python code collects different papers from different websites and gives them a score in relevance.
My problem: I built a website with html/css and now I want to use the entered funding ID in one of the forms to pass it on to my python program. I know that i can use action in the form in my html to connect my html file with a different file. I read a lot of things about CGI and servers and Apache, etc. others talked about flask. I just want to find a simple way to exchange information from my html file and my python code and how can I display the information I got from my code in an HTML website?
Thank you!

WARNING: This is only for amusement purposes--do not use in production.
Sticking to the Python standard library, here's an example to get you started.
from http.server import BaseHTTPRequestHandler, HTTPServer
class WebServer(BaseHTTPRequestHandler):
def do_POST(self):
content_length = int(self.headers['Content-Length'])
funding_id = bytes.decode(self.rfile.read(content_length)).split('input=')[1]
self.send_response(200)
self.send_header("Content-type", "text/html")
self.end_headers()
self.wfile.write(bytes(f'<html><head><title>Funding ID Form Submit</title></head><body><p><b>Funding ID:</b> {funding_id}</p></body></html>', "utf-8"))
ws = HTTPServer(('localhost', 8080), WebServer)
ws.serve_forever()
You will need to change the action attribute of your HTML <form> to action="http://localhost:8080/" to see this in action.
Similarly, you can serve normal page requests by implementing the do_GET method for the WebServer class.
As already stated, this is for amusement/learning purposes. If you're putting something into production, look into learning something like Flask or Django
I have been trying to get some information of a website with python. I have tried using requests and selenium to get the HTML code of the website but I always get this HTML. I guess the website realizes it is not an actual person doing the search and therefore denies access. Is there any way to solve this issue and get the HTML code of this website?

It's clear the website is able to recognize your bot. Since I am not aware of what website you are trying to scrape, I can't tell if this particular method will work.
Try changing the user agent. By default, the user agent of the chromedriver is different from the usual Chrome browser.
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium import webdriver
options = Options()
options.add_argument("user-agent=Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/80.0.3987.163 Safari/537.36")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chromedriver,chrome_options=options)
i need to know how to redirect the user in Django views to a certain page after he logs in.
let's say we have 3 types of users and 3 types of pages, i want each type to be directed to a certain page, and in the same time doesn't has the permission to view the other pages.
You can do something like this:
from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
#login_required
def home(request):
return HttpResponseRedirect(
reverse(custom_view,
args=[request.user.username]))
Here, custom_view should be your user specific view. This is assuming you have:
LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = '/profiles/home'
and you have configured a urlpattern:
(r'^profiles/home', 'myapp.views.home')
You can add a check for account type and redirect to the correct view.
I wrote some similar functionality recently by sub-classing the LoginView provided by django.contrib.auth. Okay, make your first page from the root directory, call it login:
python manage.py startapp login. Make this file exist <projectRoot>/login/templates/registration/login.html Add this code inside said file, it's more or less cut and pasted from bootstrap's login form, but with some standard django template language to bind to the expected AuthenticationForm fields.

Next, subclass the built in view and override the redirect part. Inside login.views.py, add this:
from django.contrib.auth.views import LoginView
class CustomLoginview(LoginView):
def get_redirect_url(self):
if self.request.user.groups.filter(name="customer").exists():
return 'invoice'
return super().get_redirect_url()
Finally, update urls.py:
from login.views import CustomLoginview
urlpatterns = [
path('', CustomLoginview.as_view(), name='login'),
I'm telling the login page to go to my next app 'invoice' if the user is a customer, otherwise it goes to the default that I specified in the settings file. Obviously you could expound upon the concept for 3 types of users, which is different than routing based on the names of users, not sure how that got 2 upvotes.
