I have two generic class based views, CreateView and UpdateView.
I have products and companies, where a company can have multiple products. A user has a company. When a product is added I need to send also the corresponding foreign key and when I edit/update I need to be sure that the product update belongs to the company of the user. Code: 1. Create *def *form_valid(self, form): company = self.get_company() form.instance.company = company valid_data = super(ProductCreateView, self).form_valid(form) *return *valid_data 2. Update *def *get_object(self, *args, **kwargs): company = self.get_company() obj = super(ProductUpdateView,self).get_object(*args, **kwargs) *if *obj.company == company: *return *obj Why for create the instance is use (form.instance.company = company) and on update the object is requested ?
