I went down the route of leveraging the json-enc extention in htmx, but later realized that this completely breaks browsers/users who do not wish to use javascript. While most of the web would feel quite broken with javascript disabled, I don’t want to contribute to that without good reason.

Taking a second look into this issue, rather than using json-enc, and using as_form to get form data into a model keeps the nice DX fo everything being a pydantic model, but the site still works without js. with js htmx kicks in, you get a spa like experience by loading partials onto the page, and without, you just get a full page reload.

I’ve definitely been missing out on setting up a proper jinja loader on a few projects, I need to lean on this a bit more.

class jinja2.FileSystemLoader(searchpath, encoding='utf-8', followlinks=False): ''' Load templates from a directory in the file system. '''

The path can be relative or absolute. Relative paths are relative to the current working directory.

I kept running into limits in the number of subuid and subgid’s I had on my system by default. As always thank the arch wiki guide for having the most comprehensive yet consice guide to setup podman.

What I needed to do to fix the error.

I love rich inspect. It’s one of my most often used features of rich. It gives you a great human readable insight into python object instances.

>>> from rich import inspect >>> text_file = open("foo.txt", "w") >>> inspect(text_file)

I have a pyflyby entry for it so that I can just run it ang get automatic imports. To not clash with the standard library inspect, which is quite useful on it’s own, I have aliased it to rinspect.

A feature of jinja that I just discovered is including sub templates. Here is an example from the docs.

{% include 'header.html' %} Body goes here. {% include 'footer.html' %}

And inside of my thoughts project I used it to render posts.

<ul id='posts'> {% for post in posts.__root__ %} {% include 'post_item.html' %} {% endfor %} </ul>

note that post_item.html automatically inherits the post variable.

I am trying to use htmx on a new fastapi site for my thoughts, and have been hitting this error.

Mixed Content: The page at 'https://front.mydomain.com/#/clients/1' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure resource 'http://back.mydomain/jobs/?_end=25&_order=DESC&_sort=id&_start=0&client_id=1'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

What is happening #

I have an htmx component that gets the current users name, but if they are not logged in the backend redirects to a login form.

<div hx-get='/users/me' hx-trigger='load'> get me </div>

But for some reason when the front end gets this redirect, it tries to do it through http,...

On void linux. Under `/etc/containers/` there is a file called `registries.conf`. It is complemented by `man 5 containers-registries.conf`. Change (for me lines 11-12) which say [registries.search] registries = [] to

[registries.search] registries = ['docker.io']

Without the above you won’t be able to use basic podman functions. You might get errors like:

Various documentation (redhat blog entries, man podman pages) say that dockerhub is a default, but without this step it’s clearly not.

Good luck. Feel free to use the comment box below if you have a github account.

Here is a snippet provided by @tiangolo to store the users jwt inside of a session cookie in fatapi. This was written in feb 12, 2020 and admits that this is not a well documented part of fastapi.

It’s already in place. More or less like the rest of the security tools. And it’s compatible with the rest of the parts, integrated with OpenAPI (as possible), but probably most importantly, with dependencies.

It’s just not properly documented yet. 😞

But still, it works πŸš€ e.g.
