I am using django development environment to develope an app while trying to execute view function i am getting raise SynchronousOnlyOperation(message) django.core.exceptions.SynchronousOnlyOperation: You cannot call this from an async context - use a thread or sync_to_async.
i have configured the django app using asgi mode and running the daphne via command daphne myproject.asgi:application. there is a signup form in my app where user put his name,company_id,email as username and password. i want to store the username,password in user model and the company_id against that user in userprofile model. signup view is failing to execute the django orm queries and i am unable to store the data as expected.
```
async def signup(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = UserCreationForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
user = form.save(commit=False)
user.email = user.username
user.first_name = request.POST.get('first_name')
user.last_name = request.POST.get('last_name')
user.save()
customer_id = request.POST.get('customer_Id') # Get the customer_id from the form
print(customer_id)
try:
customer = await sync_to_async(Customer.objects.get)(customer_id=customer_id)
except Customer.DoesNotExist:
return render(request, 'core/signup.html', {'form': form, 'error_message': 'NA'})
userprofile = await sync_to_async(Userprofile.objects.create)(user=user, customer=customer)
await sync_to_async(userprofile.save)()
await sync_to_async(login)(request, user) # Using sync_to_async for login
return redirect('landingpage')
else:
form = UserCreationForm()
return render(request, 'core/signup.html', {'form': form})
```
