Method Not Allowed (POST) in ajax request with django

I am trying to pass the values of form data through ajax .And getting method not allowed error. I am trying to add comment in a blog post.
This is my form which is inside blog_detail page
<form id="commentform" class="commentform" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
{%with allcomments.count as total_comments%}
<p>
{{total_comments}} comment{{total_comments|pluralize}}
</p>
{%endwith%}
<select name="blog" class="d-none" id="id_blog">
<option value="{{blog.id}}" selected="{{blog.id}}"></option>
</select>
<label class="small font-weight-bold">{{comment_form.parent.label}}</label>
{{comment_form.parent}}
<div class="d-flex">
<img class="avatar_comment align-self-center" src="{% for data in avatar%}{{data.avatar.url}}{%endfor%}" alt="">
{{comment_form.content}}
</div>
<div class="d-flex flex-row-reverse">
<button value="commentform" id="newcomment" type="submit" class="newcomment btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
</div>
</form>
And when I click the button it should call the ajax
$(document).on('click','#newcomment',function(e){
e.preventDefault();
var button =$(this).attr("value");
var placement = "commentform"
if (button=="newcommentform"){
var placement = "newcommentform"
}
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '{% url "website:addcomment" %}',
data: $("#" + button).serialize(),
cache: false,
sucess: function(json){
console.log(json)
$('<div id="" class="my-2 p-2" style="border: 1px solid grey"> \
<div class="d-flex justify-content-between">By ' + json['user'] + '<div></div>Posted: Just now!</div> \
<div>' + json['result'] + '</div> \
<hr> \
</div>').insertBefore('#' + placement);
},
error: function(xhr,errmsg,err){
}
});
})
This is my urls.py
path('blog/<int:blog_id>', BlogDetails.as_view(), name="blog_detail"),
path('addcomment/',addcomment, name="addcomment"),
and my views.py is:
class BlogDetails(View):
def get(self, request, blog_id):
query = request.GET.get('query')
if query:
return redirect(reverse('website:search') + '?query=' + query)
blog = Blog.objects.get(id=blog_id)
total_comment = Comment.objects.filter(blog=blog).count()
allcomments = blog.comments.filter(status=True)
blog_list = Blog.objects.all()
comment_form = NewCommentForm()
data = {
'blog': blog,
'blog_list': blog_list,
'total_comment': total_comment,
'comment_form': comment_form,
'allcomments': allcomments
}
return render(request, "blog_detail.html", data)
def addcomment(request):
if request.method == 'post':
comment_form = NewCommentForm(request.POST)
print(comment_form)
if comment_form.is_valid():
user_comment = comment_form.save(commit=False)
user_comment.user = request.user
user_comment.save()
result = comment_form.cleaned_data.get('content')
user = request.user.username
return JsonResponse({'result': result, 'user': user})
Please help me with this it is not calling addcomment view

If how I've interpreted your code is correct, it would probably work if changed your BlogDetails class to this:
class BlogDetails(View):
def get(self, request, blog_id):
query = request.GET.get('query')
if query:
return redirect(reverse('website:search') + '?query=' + query)
blog = Blog.objects.get(id=blog_id)
total_comment = Comment.objects.filter(blog=blog).count()
allcomments = blog.comments.filter(status=True)
blog_list = Blog.objects.all()
comment_form = NewCommentForm()
data = {
'blog': blog,
'blog_list': blog_list,
'total_comment': total_comment,
'comment_form': comment_form,
'allcomments': allcomments
}
return render(request, "blog_detail.html", data)
def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
return self.addcomment(request)
def addcomment(self, request):
comment_form = NewCommentForm(request.POST)
print(comment_form)
if comment_form.is_valid():
user_comment = comment_form.save(commit=False)
user_comment.user = request.user
user_comment.save()
result = comment_form.cleaned_data.get('content')
user = request.user.username
return JsonResponse({'result': result, 'user': user})
Because you are trying to POST to a view that doesn't have a post method defined.
Then you would need to remove addcomment from the URL you are calling and just post to whatever URL you are currently at.

JSONDecodeError at /update_item/ Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

I’m a beginner. I have tried everything in the Django E-commerce website course, but it does not work for me. I also tried documentation but I didn’t get any solution. I have this error when I go to /update_item/ and the data is not showing up in the terminal:

I tried making a dummy django project with the code you provided to see if I counter such error.
Following JS code I used:
function updateUserOrder(){
console.log('User is authenticated, sending data...')
var url = '/update_item/'
fetch(url, {
method:'POST',
headers:{
'Content-Type':'application/json',
},
body:JSON.stringify({'productId':5, 'action':'Add'})
})
.then((response) => {
return response.json();
})
.then((data) => {
location.reload()
});
}
I gave dummy data to productId and action.
Then my views.py goes like this:
from django.shortcuts import render
from django.http import JsonResponse
from django.views.decorators.csrf import csrf_exempt
#csrf_exempt
def updateItem(request):
data = json.loads(request.body)
productId = data['productId']
action = data['action']
print("Action",action)
print("Pordutcs:",productId)
return JsonResponse("Item was added", safe=False)
Not much with html part, it was just a click button to call the js code.
<button onclick="updateUserOrder()">Add</button>
And worked like a charm, following is the screenshot of my output in django server:
I would suggest you to try running with the same code.
If error is still there, try giving dummy data to productId and action in js code to make sure if there is a problem with the data in productId and action.

I assume you've solved this issue otherwise,...
if you're using Django version 4.0
change the url for the cart.js to update_item, cart.js should look like this
cart.js:
var updateBtns = document.getElementsByClassName('update-cart')
for (i = 0; i < updateBtns.length; i++) {
updateBtns[i].addEventListener('click', function(){
var productId = this.dataset.product
var action = this.dataset.action
console.log('productId:', productId, 'Action:', action)
console.log('USER:', user)
})
}
function updateUserOrder(productId, action){
console.log('User is authenticated, sending data...')
var url = 'update_item/'
fetch(url, {
method:'POST',
headers:{
'Content-Type':'application/json',
'X-CSRFToken':csrftoken,
},
body:JSON.stringify({'productId':productId, 'action':action})
})
.then((response) => {
return response.json();
})
.then((data) => {
location.reload()
});
}
then import csrf_exempt decorator , your views should look like this
views.py(after adding "from django.views.decorators.csrf import csrf_exempt" to the top of your file)
#csrf_exempt
def updateItem(request):
data = json.loads(request.body)
productId = data['productId']
action = data['action']
print("Action",action)
print("Pordutcs:",productId)
customer = request.user.customer
product = Product.objects.get(id=productId)
order, created = Order.objects.get_or_create(customer=customer , complete=False)
orderitem, created = Orderitem.objects.get_or_create(order= order,product=product)
if action == 'add':
orderitem.quantity = (orderitem.quantitiy +1)
elif action == 'remove':
orderitem.quantity = (orderitem.quantity -1)
orderitem.save()
if orderitem.quantity <= 0:
orderitem.delete()
return JsonResponse("Item was added", safe=False)
Then Clear Your Cache and try adding the item to cart again...it should work this time

Editing a Post - Django and Javascript Question

I am new to Django and Javascript. I would like to create an edit section on a site, where people can edit a post that already exists. Similar to Facebook or Twitter.
When I click 'edit' on my post, in the console I am getting:
network.js:28 POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/edit_post/ 404 (Not Found)
I've tried many things but cannot get it to work. Any help is appreciated.
I think the issue might have to do with the use of 'post' and 'text.'
'text' is in my model, used to signify the text of the actual post.
views.py:
#login_required
#csrf_exempt
def edit_post(request):
if request.method == "POST":
post_id = request.POST.get('id')
new_post = request.POST.get('text')

post = Post.objects.get(id=post_id)
if post.user == request.user:
post.text = new_post.strip()
post.save()
return JsonResponse({}, status=201)
except:
return JsonResponse({}, status=404)
return JsonResponse({}, status=400)
models.py

element.addEventListener("keyup", (e) => {
if (e.keyCode == 13 && e.shiftKey) return;
if (e.keyCode === 13) edit_handeler(element);
});
});
function edit_post(id, post) {
form = new FormData();
form.append("id", id);
form.append("text", text.trim());
fetch("/edit_post/", {

document.querySelector(`#post-content-${id}`).textContent = post;
document.querySelector(`#post-content-${id}`).style.display =

}

Django and Javascript - Like Button Not Working

I am new to Django and Javascript - I am making a project that has posts on a site, and I want to create a 'like' button on each post. So far here is my code - I am not getting any errors at all. No console errors in the browser either. But nothing happens. When you click the heart image, if it is liked, it should be a red image. When it is not liked, it is the white heart image. Currently when I click the image, it just stays white. It is always defaulting to that white image. The code doesn't work. Any help is appreciated.
views.py for the like button:
#csrf_exempt
def like(request):
if request.method == "POST":
post_id = request.POST.get('id')
is_liked = request.POST.get('is_liked')
try:
post = Post.objects.get(id=post_id)
if is_liked == 'no':
post.like.add(request.user)
is_liked = 'yes'
elif is_liked == 'yes':
post.like.remove(request.user)
is_liked = 'no'
post.save()
return JsonResponse({'like_count': post.like.count(), 'is_liked': is_liked,
"status": 201})
except:
return JsonResponse({'error': "Post not found", "status": 404})
return JsonResponse({}, status=400)
views.py for the page to show all the posts:
def index(request):
list_of_posts = Post.objects.all().order_by('id').reverse()
paginator = Paginator(list_of_posts, 10)
page_number = request.GET.get('page', 1)
page_obj = paginator.get_page(page_number)
return render(request, "network/index.html", {
"list_of_posts": list_of_posts,

})
Javascript file:
like = document.querySelectorAll(".liked");
edit = document.querySelectorAll(".edit");
text_area = document.querySelectorAll(".textarea");
like.forEach((element) => {
like_handeler(element);
});
function like_handeler(element) {
element.addEventListener("click", () => {
id = element.getAttribute("data-id");
is_liked = element.getAttribute("data-is_liked");
icon = document.querySelector(`#post-like-${id}`);
count = document.querySelector(`#post-count-${id}`);
form = new FormData();
form.append("id", id);
form.append("is_liked", is_liked);
fetch("/like/", {

element.setAttribute("data-is_liked", "no");
}
count.textContent = res.like_count;
}
})
.catch(function (res) {
alert("Network Error. Please Check your connection.");
});
});
}
html file for each post: index.html:
{% extends "network/layout.html" %}
{% load static %}
{% block body %}

When I click the 'like' heart button on the page this is what I get. Each instance of 2, happens when I click it once. So this image is from clicking the heart button 3 times:
