Hi
I have declared a model and the simple views I created are working.
Now I am trying to move to generic views.
So I added in urls.py
path('book2/<int:pk>/', views.DetailView.as_view(), name='detail'),
And in views.py
class DetailView(generic.DetailView):
model = Book
And the template is
{% block content %}
<h1>book List</h1>
{% if object_list %}
<ul>
{% for book in object_list %}
<li>
{{ book.author }}
</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
{% else %}
<p>There are no books in the library.</p>
{% endif %}
{% endblock %}
For reference the models.py had been
class Book(models.Model):
author = models.CharField(max_length=70)
But the result is "There are no books in the library". So it seems that the
books list is not transferred to the template to be rendered. Could you
help me understand where I have done wrong?
Thank you
