[UPDATE] Django Orbit v0.6.2 - Critical fix for ATOMIC_REQUESTS

Hi all,

We've released Django Orbit v0.6.2 to address a critical issue affecting projects with ATOMIC_REQUESTS=True.

Changes:

- Fixed: Verify crash when using `ATOMIC_REQUESTS=True` or the `@transaction.atomic` decorator. The internal wrapper for the new Transaction Watcher was previously incompatible with these patterns.

- Improvement: Enhanced thread safety for nested atomic blocks.

If you enabled the Transaction Watcher (new in v0.6) and experienced crashes, please upgrade immediately:

`pip install --upgrade django-orbit` Thanks to ctrldaviddee and StevenMapes for the report!

Safe coding!

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Introducing Django Orbit - Non-Intrusive Observability for Django

Hi Steven, thanks for the feedback! Glad you like the visuals.

You're actually ahead of me! I've been working on expanding cache support to include Memcached, File, and Valkey. The holidays slowed me down a bit (as they do! haha), but I'm back at it now.

Besides the cache updates, I'm also finishing up Database Transaction tracking and Storage activity monitoring (S3/Local) to give Orbit a more complete 'satellite view' of the app. I'm planning to release these updates by next week, so stay tuned.

I'd love to hear how it performs on your local project once the new version is out!

My initial impressions are that it looks good visually, I can see that you're added support for REDIS stats and was wondering if you have plans for supporting other cache backend including file, memcached, valkey etc as the current setup doesn't seem to pick up those cache calls

Hello Django Users community,

I'm excited to share a new open-source project designed to make debugging and monitoring Django applications easier: Django Orbit.

Django Orbit is a modern "Satellite Observability" tool that watches your application from a distance without interfering with it. Its core philosophy is to provide deep insights without the hassle of the Django Debug Toolbar's DOM injection. This means:

•  No template pollution or CSS conflicts
•  Works seamlessly with any frontend (React, Vue, HTMX, etc.)
•  Clean separation, living at its own isolated URL (/orbit/)

Key Features Include:

• SQL Recording: Detailed log of queries with built-in N+1 detection and slow query alerts.
• Request Tracking: Captures full HTTP requests, headers, and responses.
• Exception Tracking: Full traceback capture for all errors.
• Dashboard: A beautiful, space-themed UI with HTMX-powered live updates and event correlation.

You can explore the documentation and see more about the project here: https://labs.wearehik.com/django-orbit/

I would be grateful for any feedback on the tool's architecture, usability, and features. We're building this for the community, and your input is invaluable for the roadmap.

If you find Django Orbit useful for your projects, please consider giving us a star on GitHub to help increase visibility and support future development.

You can also follow me for updates on X: x.com/capitanbuild.com

Thank you for your time and potential contributions!

Best regards,

Hernan Chamorro

Looking for someone to collaborate on a Django portfolio project, doing it alone sounds boring :)

Hello guys, I'm planning to build my personal portfolio website using Django, and I'm looking for someone who shares the same goal. I want to make something innovative, clean, and attractive that can showcase my skills, projects, certificates, and experience, basically a personal site that stands out.

I'm also aiming to try some new things in this project, like adding a multilingual option, light and dark mode, and maybe using django-cutton. I'm not going to be too strict about the structure, but I really want to make the portfolio customizable so I can easily update or expand it later. The idea is to make it flexible enough to publish it later so anyone can use it for their own portfolio too.

Later on, I'd like to expand it maybe add a blog, but for now, the goal is to build a solid version from scratch to deployment.

Tech stack (tentative):

• Backend: Django
• Frontend: Django Template with Tailwind, HTMX, Alpine.js (if needed)
• Deployment: Docker (maybe a bit overkill, but it makes the deployment process easier) and GitHub CI/CD
• Everything should work smoothly through the Django admin panel

I also want to make the portfolio customizable and open-source, so others can easily adapt it for their own use in the future.

I'm not that beginner in Django, but I've been finding it a bit boring to work on this alone. I also have a full-time job, so I'll be doing this in my free time. It might take about one or two months, depending on our schedule.

If you share the same goal and want to build something useful that you can actually use yourself, reply with a contact information or anything to connect with each other.

Let's build something awesome together🔥🔥!

Re: Part 1 of my Second Last Project (E-Commerce Project) of the Learning Phase

Amigo pontos q senti falta:

- Testes (use pytest) para seu sistema todo...implementa já eles ok

- Deixe na venv o Debug=False

- Valide os campos, tipow, se o e-mail retornou válido, ou seja, ex @ ex.com

- esse trecho na view: return render(request, "orders/order/created.html", {"order": order})

como a variável order está dentro do if de validação se der erro de validação dará tb erro nela. Revejá lá.

No teste inicial q fiz só senti falta desses detalhes.

Progress with Python/Django Software Development.
Part 1 of my Second Last Project of the Learning Phase.

Greetings to you who like and follow my work.
Today concerning my learning journey, I bring you an E-commerce Project/An online shopping site.

It's key features include:
1. Product catalog.
2. Shopping Cart using session.
3. Context processor to make the cart available to all templates/pages.
4. Order placement.
5. Celery and RabbitMQ for asynchronous tasks (Note: Due to the fact I am using a free tier on https://render.com/ for hosting this project, this feature is not supported).

Project link: https://online-shopping-site-jr3o.onrender.com/ (This link will expire in a month time from 18 October, 2025 because I am using a free tier account for hosting.)

Source code: https://github.com/alindafortunate/OnlineShop-E_Commerce_Platform/tree/main/online_shopping_site

Feel free to checkout it, advise, give feedback and ask me follow up questions in my inbox.
Thank you.
