Is this a new or a update from the front end ?

If new :
     1 Extract json using : data = json.load( request.POST['json'] - this converts data to a dictionary (assuming that the json is in the 'json' field in the message.
     2 Validate as necessary
     3 Create instance : instance = Patient.create(**data),
                                    instance.save()

if an update to an existing instance :
     1 Extract json using : data = json.load( request.POST['json'] - this converts data to a dictionary (assuming that the json is in the 'json' field in the message.
     2 Validate as necessary
     3 Update :
            for field, value in data.items():
                  setattr(instance, field, value)

           instance.save()

        Assuming that instances is the Patient record to be updated.

I hope this helps.

Hello guys,
Sorry about the above no subject mail
I am getting a json string(json_string) from frontend. How can we update the django database in views.py. Below is my models.py.
models.py

class Patient(models.Model):
    patient_id = models.CharField(primary_key=True, max_length=200)
    patient_age = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    patient_name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    patient_refby = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    patient_gender = models.CharField(max_length=20,
default=Gender.UNKNOWN.value)
