Speeding up PyTest by removing big libraries

I've been working on a small project that uses "big" libraries, and it was extremely annoying to have `pytest` to take 15–20 seconds to run 6 test cases that were not even doing anything.

Armed with the excellent [PyInstrument](https://www.reddit.com/r/Python/comments/1g1az6i/pyinstrument_v50_flamegraphs_for_python/) I went ahead to search for what was the reason.

Turns out that biggish libraries are taking a lot of time to load, maybe because of the `importlib` method used by my `pytest`, or whatever.

But I don't really need these libraries in the tests … so how about I remove them?

# tests/conftest.py
import sys
from unittest.mock import MagicMock

def pytest_sessionstart():
sys.modules['networkx'] = MagicMock()
sys.modules['transformers'] = MagicMock()

And yes, this worked wonders! Reduced the tests run from 15 to much lower than 1 second from `pytest` start to results finish.

I would have loved to remove `sqlalchemy` as well, but unfortunately `sqlmodel` is coupled with it so much it is inseparable from the models based on `SQLModel`.

Would love to hear your reaction to this kind of heresy.

Finally I make money from my django project

It was quite long journey.. it took about a year and a half to build and no sales for 4months.. I was quite depressed..

I figured out what to fix and my site started to make sales and now I make $100~$200 in revenue everyday. It is not that big amount but I can do this for living and I know how to scale up

I feel really thanks to django foundation..
If I chose nodejs or something else I wouldnt build a service for living in that short period of time..

Qtcord - A lightweight, native Discord client for Windows and Linux

Ever noticed that the normal Discord client is bloated and takes too long to load for quick conversations? Well, here's the solution. Qtcord is a very lightweight Discord client written by the open source community and me.

Shoutout to randomusername-a for optimizing the backend and improving the UI of this project!

# How Qtcord works.

Qtcord uses Python Requests to send and retrieve data from the Discord API.

I reverse engineered some of the requests with the browser devtools network tab. The rest were implemented from documentation/tutorials that various people wrote online, including the actual Discord API docs!

For the GUI, I chose PySide6 because it is very easy to use, especially with Qt Designer. This saved me time hardcoding the UI.

# Target Audience

Qtcord is designed for people who don't need the extra features and ads from Discord.

# Why is Qtcord different?

Qtcord is different because it is native. For example, the normal Discord client takes around 500 MiB of RAM. Qtcord only takes 138 MiB of RAM.

# Downloads and Source

You can get builds of Qtcord here.

Please give my source code repository for Qtcord a star if it's interesting! 🌟

Requiring approval for certain actions

Hello,

I am trying to figure out if there is a way for me to implement some form of authorization for an action to occur for example if someone wants to do a task on the web app which would change a lot of data I want that action to have to be approved by someone else first, is there a known way in which this could be implemented in flask?

Pre-commit hooks that autogenerate iPython notebook diffs

What My Project Does

Nowadays, I use iPython notebooks a lot in my software development nowadays. It's a nice way to debug things without having to fire up pdb; I'll often use it when I'm trying to debug and explore a new API.

Unfortunately, notebooks are really hard to diff in Git. I use magit and git diffs pretty extensively when I change code, and I rely heavily them to make sure I haven't introduced typos or bugs. iPython notebooks are just JSON blobs, though, so git gives me a horrible, incoherent mess. I basically commit them blindly without checking the code at all nowadays, which isn't ideal.

So to resolve this I generate a readable version of the notebook, and check the diff for that. Specifically, I wrote a noscript that extracts only the Python code from the iPython notebook (which is essentially a JSON file). Then, whenever I commit a change to the iPython notebook, it:

1. Automatically generates the Python-only version alongside the original notebook.
2. Commits both files to the repository.

To make sure it runs when I need it, I created a git pre-commit hook. Git's default pre-commit hooks are a little difficult to use, so I built a hook for

Kanban-Tui, Moving Cards around in the Terminal

* **What My Project Does**

Kanban-Tui is a CLI application to manage tasks and (hopefully) makes you more productive.
It is quite customizable and my motivation was to have a better experience using the fantastic [textual](https://textual.textualize.io) package than with my
previous project [kanban-python](https://github.com/Zaloog/kanban-python) which just utilizes `rich`. It was also the first project, where I used `uv` and I wanted to get more comfortable with databases (sqlite).
With v0.2.0 I also included a `Demo Mode` to create a temporary database and config to play around and test things out.

You can find it on PyPi: [Link](https://pypi.org/project/kanban-tui/)

Source Code on github: [Link](https://github.com/Zaloog/kanban-tui)


* **Target Audience** (e.g., Is it meant for production, just a toy project, etc.)

For everyone who likes to work in the terminal and does not want to miss a more graphical Interface. It is ready to use, but I plan to add multiple boards feature after vacation. That might lead to a db schema change, so keep that in mind, when playing around.

* **Comparison** (A brief comparison explaining how it differs from existing alternatives.)

Its similar to kanban-python, but has not yet all the features.
Also with the TUI I was able to utilize vim-like motions to move cards around, which comes closer to the feeling of actually moving

Tips for Command Line Project

Hello! I'm making a short project to have a little experience creating a command line tool, as well as getting a project onto PyPI. Mainly, I'm doing this because I think it's cool, and it would be awesome if a friend could pip3 install my project and just have a CLI tool off the install, similar to how the `qrcode` Python library comes with the `qr` CLI tool when installed. If you have any tips **AT ALL** for anything you see, like project organization, overall Python usage, or too many commits (is that possible), please tell me, I'm a sponge for info!

I'm still making the GUI portion, but the actual command line part should be done!

Off a google search, I understand there is already a PyPI project [Jonathan Löfgren\](https://github.com/jonathanlofgren/running/blob/master/.gitignore) made some time ago for converting paces into different distance paces. The purpose of my project here is to get a little experience creating a CLI tool I could use along with the overall process of getting something onto PyPI that works. If what I'm doing is majorly wrong, however, please tell me, I don't know!

Censor words in audio using python

Hi! I'm 18 and recently started building Python projects to upgrade my portfolio. I have this little idea about censorship slurs (or any word) without editing the audio manually word by word. I'm really glad with the result, but I fell in love with the project so I will keep improving it.

# What My Project Does

Censorship-py is a Python library that allows you to censor specific words in an audio file based on a given list of words, replacing the given words with a Beep sound.

# Target Audience

Content creators, video editors, media

# Comparison

I didn't find many projects very similar to mine, but I leave this one here PyAudioCensor.

Let me know some ideas or what you think about my project!

Suggestions for cloud databases?

I am writing a program in Python that will need to be used by a small team of people in different locations. The program will need to access a SQL or SQLite database and so the database needs to be stored and accessed remotely.

Can I please have your suggestions for this? It only needs to be for light usage with a small team of about 5 people max and likely only 2 max accessing it at the same time. I would prefer something free or if costs are involved something with trivial costs.

Thanks in advance.

Parsera - website data extraction with minimal code

Python library for scraping websites that I am building for the last few months. The idea is to make data extraction as simple as:

from parsera import Parsera
url = "https://news.ycombinator.com/"
elements = {
"Title": "News noscript",
"Points": "Number of points",
}
scraper = Parsera()
result = scraper.run(url=url, elements=elements)

Check it out on GitHub and share your feedback: https://github.com/raznem/parsera

What My Project Does

It extracts data from websites without dealing with DOM structure and writing web scrapers.

Target Audience

Developers who are dealing with web-scraping in their data pipeline.

Comparison

Compared alternatives it’s easier to use, uses less tokens and works faster.

How secure is Django?

I have several years of experience building stuff with Flask - stitching authentication, rate limiting and such stuff myself. I started using Django recently. Django seems to want to make me think it does everything for me, but I'm paranoid. Which security considerations are worth taking into account when using Django? Does it actually handle anything besides authentication and SQL injections?

Losing context path on /login with Flask-OIDC

I am running my app inside a Docker container with gunicorn.

In production, I run behind NGINX with a context path set.

For example, locally I would hit:

http://localhost:8085/fetch/path/to/file.txt


In production i would use:
https://my.domain.com/someapp/fetch/path/to/file.txt

One of the methods in my app is decorated like so:

@app.route(f'/fetch/<path:filepath>', methods='GET')
@oidc.requirelogin
def fetch
file(filepath):
try:


When I try this in production, the user is redirected to https://my.domain.com/login, where it should be
https://my.domain.com/someapp/login

It looks as though the path is being lost?

Is there some way to specify the oauth login URL?


My Nginx config looks like this:

proxysetheader X-Forwarded-For $httpxforwardedfor;
proxy
setheader X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy
ignoreclientabort on;
proxynocache 1;
proxycachebypass 1;
