Hi everyone,
So I have a problem here. I have a series of forms to allow someone
to create recipes, and I decided to build them with Django's form
objects. The issue is that newly saved data doesn't appear as an
option on another form that I bring in as part of a ChoiceField. An
example that I will provide relevant code for is someone fills out a
form to add a new IngredientType. They save and all is well (it goes
in the DB and everything). However, when I go to the Ingredient form
which has all IngredientTypes in a dropdown, the new type isn't listed
(although old ones are). The data doesn't appear until I restart my
development server.
Here's the relevant code:
>From forms.py:
class IngredientForm(forms.Form):
title = forms.CharField(max_length=50,
widget=forms.TextInput(attrs=attrs_dict),
label=_(u'Ingredient Name'))
type = forms.ChoiceField(choices=chain([('',
'Type')],IngredientType.objects.values_list('id', 'type')),
label=_(u'Ingredient Type'))
>From views.py:
def ingredient(request):
if request.POST.has_key('saveobj'):
f = IngredientForm(request.POST,auto_id='id-%s')
if f.is_valid() and f.cleaned_data['title'] != '':
ingredient = Ingredient(title=f.cleaned_data['title'],
type_id=f.cleaned_data['type'])
ingredient.save()
return render_to_response('cbook/object_done.html',
{'value': ingredient.id, 'title': escape(ingredient.title) })
else:
f = IngredientForm(auto_id='id-%s')
return render_to_response('cbook/object_add.html', {'form': f,
'title': 'Add Ingredient'})
If anyone has any idea, it would be greatly appreciated. Also, if you
need more of the code, just let me know. Thanks.
