Python and Django Blog Sample Project -
i newbie python django, , have started sample project "blog".
currently blog posts added database manually, want @ front end providing form user. created model.py , views.py files, unable see these fields on front end. have copied of code below:
models.py:
class posts(models.model): author = models.charfield(max_length = 30) title = models.charfield(max_length = 100) bodytext = models.textfield() timestamp = models.datetimefield() class postform(modelform): class meta: model = posts views.py:
def home(request): content = posts.objects.all()[:5] return render_to_response('index.html',{'posts' : content}) def save_blog(request): form = postform if request.post: form = postform(request.post) if form.is_valid(): form.save return render_to_response('index.html',{'form' : form},context_instance=requestcontext(request)) url.py:
from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url django.contrib import admin admin.autodiscover() urlpatterns = patterns('', url(r'^$', 'blog.views.home', name='home'), url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)) ) index.html:
<body> <div class="container"> <h1>welcome to</h1> <hr /> {% post in posts %} <div class="posts"> <h2>{{ post.title }}</h2> <h3>posted on {{ post.timestamp }} {{ post.author }}</h3> <p>{{ post.bodytext }}</p> </div> <hr /> {% endfor %} </div> <div class="forms"> <form action="." method="post" name="posts" id="posts">{% csrf_token %} <table> <tr><td>{{form.author.label}}</td><td>{{form.author}}</td></tr> <tr><td>{{form.title.label}}</td><td>{{form.title}}</td></tr> <tr><td>{{form.bodytext.label}}</td><td>{{form.bodytext}}</td></tr> <tr><td></td><td><input type="button" name="btnsave" id="bntsave" value="submit" class = "default2"/></td> </table> </form> </div> </body> settings.middleware_classes:
middleware_classes = ( 'django.middleware.common.commonmiddleware', 'django.middleware.csrf.csrfviewmiddleware', 'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.sessionmiddleware', 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.authenticationmiddleware', 'django.contrib.messages.middleware.messagemiddleware', ) please let me know if missing anything. let me know how can achieve without using django model form.
thanks
views.py
def home(request): content = posts.objects.all()[:5] form = postform() if request.post: form = postform(request.post) if form.is_valid(): form.save() return render_to_response('index.html',{'posts' : content, 'form' : form}, context_instance=requestcontext(request)) index.html
<div class="forms"> <form method="post" name="posts" id="posts"> {% csrf_token %} {{ form.as_table }} <input type="button" name="btnsave" id="bntsave" value="submit" class="default2"/> //<--------------- </form> </div> update:
ok see why it's not submitting. put button instead of submit in input type
<input type="submit" name="btnsave" id="bntsave" value="submit" class="default2"/> //<--------------- just add auto_now_add in timestamp field
timestamp = models.datetimefield(auto_now_add=true)
