redactor | Actor library based around Redis

Summary:

Django is not rendering a basic 2 column by 11 row HTML table containing the top 10 most commonly used words in a large text file (Alice and Wonderland which is a public domain work). But right now the table is empty.

Details:

The table currently rendering on the web page looks like this, see here on imgur. In that pic, notice the bottom right corner, the table is empty.

The fully populated word counter table and its contents render when a web user navigates to http://127.0.0.1:8000/counters. See here on imgur.

However the problem in the second pic is that the blog post 'lorem ipsum' content is empty.

Here is my parent top level urls.py:

My goal is to have my website’s home page appear like this where only the form block element is present (marked by the large red “A”). After the website visitor enters their card number on that landing page, Django should redact it and render the same home page but the form should be gone and only the field divider with the processed output showing (marked by the large red “B”) as it appears in this pic on imgur. How do I achieve this? These two pics are kind of like a ‘mock up’, meaning I just commented out the form and divider sections. When only A shows when B is commented out, I lose the functionality.

For the functionality to work, ‘A’ and ‘B’ shows at the same time as shown here, which is not what I want.

I need to modify the template (perhaps by adding conditional logic?). I’m not sure how to tell Django to serve the template so that only ‘A’ shows first and then, after the site visitor enters their 12 digit card number, remove ‘A’ and only show ‘B’.

Here is the template that I am working with showing the card processor form/divider elements:

I’ve got a website I’m writing using Django which is a very basic, rudimentary CMS. For now the feature I am trying to implement involves when a web user enters their fake 12-digit chuckee cheese membership card number, Django should redact the first 8 digits and present it back to the user. All of this takes place on the main landing page with blog post text content.

Here is the urlspatterns variable declared inside my project’s parent urls.py:

I’ve got a small experimental Django project which accepts a user’s fake Chuckee Cheese membership card number on the landing page, redacts the first 8 digits and shows it back to the user in redacted form.

Here is my website’s landing page showing http://127.0.0.1:8000/: https://i.imgur.com/yHlML9c.jpg

When a web user enters their 12 digit card number (for example) ‘111111111111’ into the entry box and clicks the “Redact!” button, Django takes the user to the http://127.0.0.1:8000/home/ location. The redacted card number is present, as expected (below the green font elements): https://i.imgur.com/vGFp5Op.jpg

The problem there is that the rest of the content is missing. The redaction functionality works but my intention is for Django to re-serve the same landing page with the redacted card number (rather than taking the user to a separate page). The problem now is either with my app’s views.py, urls.py and template (copied below). I’ve been going back and forth swapping out some variables and replacing them with others but I can’t get it to work.

Here is my urls.py:

I’m trying to write a web app which accepts a website visitor’s input which is a 12 digit “Chuckee Cheese” membership card number and then redacts the first 8 digits and presents the redacted number. I’ve got my template written and the basic logic inside my app’s views.py. The problem now is that after the user enters his or her card number, Django is not processing the user input properly. Like, the redacted number is not being presented and served in the template as intended.

Here is a pic on imgur showing my website running on my dev server now. As you can see in that pic, in the web address bar Django receives the ‘ccEntry’ GET Request with ‘123456789102’ as user input. So I guess that kind of works. But below the two h1 elements (in lime green), Django should show the card number ‘123456789102’ as well as the redacted card number ‘xxxx xxxx 9102’ but instead it’s blank. What is wrong here? As far as I can tell, I believe the problem involves either the first two functions inside my redactors views.py or the way my app’s urls.py is arranged.

Here is my views.py :

Summary:

I’m writing a Django web app whose purpose is to showcase a writing sample (a ‘post mortem’) which is basically like a blog post for all intents and purposes. Django is not serving the content and I am not sure why. The problem I figure is with either my views.py or template (copied below). I don’t think the issue is with my models or urls.py but I included them anyways.

Details:

This is my second attempt at getting my Django project to serve this template properly. In my prior first attempt, I encountered a similar issue: Django not serving text content (First attempt)

There in that question, another SO member answered by identifying three mistakes I was making. The problem there was that I was missing a for loop inside my template, I was missing an all() class method inside my views.py and the context dictionary key value pair in views.py was not pluralized.

Those issues have been resolved however my new issue involves Django serving a blank template when I am expecting the Lorem Ipsum content to show.

Django should be pulling all the class objects from my models.py and then be sending them to the alls/landings.html. I am expecting the title, publication date, image and body content to render on my landing page. But instead, my ‘mortems’ app content (a blog post) isn’t showing on the landing page. The only thing that shows is the heading. To illustrate so you can see what I see, here is what my landing page looks like now:

Based on what you people see below, who can tell me what is wrong with my views / landings.html template?

The full source code can be found on my GitHub page. Here is a snapshot of the state of my project (tagged as v0.6.0).

What follows are the code samples where I suspect my issue exists.

Here is my latest views.py:

And I can't seem to get it work.
