Previous title: Unable to import ‘misaka’ – Django
I am following a tutorial about how to build a social network.
I run into this error:
IntegrityError at /posts/new/ NOT NULL constraint failed: posts_post.user_id
Complete traceback (please note the lines in bold):

The lines in bold are pointing to these two pieces of code:
1: In my_projectpostsviews.py in form_valid:
def form_valid(self, form): self.object = form.save(commit=False) self.object = self.request.user self.object.save() return super().form_valid(form) #<--highligted line
2: In my_projectpostsmodels.py in save
def save(self, *args, **kwargs): self.message_html = m.html(self.message) super().save(*args, **kwargs) #<--highligted line
These functions are run when a user posts a new post inside a group of the social network.
I am using VScode, so I noticed that apparently, my code does not recognise misaka, installed via pip and imported as follows:
import misaka as m
Pylint import error: Unable to import ‘misaka’
I have read misaka documentation but I can’t understand what is wrong.
please note I am using Misaka v. 2.1.0, that apparently does not need to be installed in INSTALLED_APPS in settings.
Any thoughts?
Since it has been suggested that I am trying to create a Post model object into the database without setting the user foreign key, here you can see my my_project/posts/model.py:
from django.db import models from django.urls import reverse #vho corretto io, ersione di django cambiata from django.conf import settings import misaka as m from groups.models import Group from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model User = get_user_model() class Post(models.Model): user = models.ForeignKey(User, related_name="posts", on_delete=models.CASCADE) created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) message = models.TextField() message_html = models.TextField(editable=False) group = models.ForeignKey(Group, related_name="posts", null=True, blank=True, on_delete=models.CASCADE) def __str__(self): return self.message def save(self, *args, **kwargs): self.message_html = m.html(self.message) super().save(*args, **kwargs) def get_absolute_url(self): return reverse('posts:single', kwargs={'username':self.user.username, 'pk':self.pk}) class Meta: ordering = ['-created_at'] unique_together = ['user', 'message']

Answer
You’re trying to insert a Post model object into the database without setting the User foreign key.
You should set it to the user object attached to the request first.
def form_valid(self, form): form.instance.created_by = self.request.user return super().form_valid(form)
