What I do to create a view that includes both -- the User and the
UserProfile -- is following the documentation of forms and
manipulators
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/forms/
and writing something like this:
def add_profile(request):
from datetime import datetime
user_manipulator = User.AddManipulator()
profile_manipulator = UserProfile.AddManipulator()
if request.POST:
new_user_data = request.POST.copy()
new_profile_data = request.POST.copy()
new_profile_data.update(request.FILES) # if you are using any
file uploads...
now = datetime.now()
new_user_data['date_joined_date'] = now.strftime("%Y-%m-%d")
new_user_data['date_joined_time'] = now.strftime("%H:%M:%S")
new_user_data['last_login_date'] = "1900-01-01"
new_user_data['last_login_time'] = "00:00:00"
new_user_data['is_active'] = 'on'
new_user_data['is_superuser'] = 'off'
new_user_data['is_staff'] = 'off'
new_profile_data['user'] = 1 # temporary, just for validation
user_errors = user_manipulator.get_validation_errors(new_user_data)
profile_errors =
profile_manipulator.get_validation_errors(new_profile_data)
if not user_errors and not profile_errors:
user_manipulator.do_html2python(new_user_data)
user = user_manipulator.save(new_user_data)
#user = User.objects.create_user(
# new_user_data['username'],
# new_user_data['email'],
# new_user_data['password']
#)
user.set_password(new_user_data['password'])
user.save()
new_profile_data['user'] = user.id
profile_manipulator.do_html2python(new_profile_data)
profile = profile_manipulator.save(new_profile_data)
...
I hope this will be helpful to you.
Good luck!
