I want to create a form based on a model and inject data into it
manually. See below for implementation.
class Approval(models.Model):
company = models.ForeignKey(Company)
product = models.ForeignKey(Product)
approval_type = models.ForeignKey(Approval_Type, help_text='How
did you get your information?')
ingredient = models.ForeignKey(Ingredient,default=1)
pub_date = models.DateTimeField
(default=datetime.datetime.now)
approved = models.BooleanField()
url = models.CharField(null=True, blank=True,
max_length=100)
comment = models.CharField(null=True, blank=True,
max_length=200)
user = models.ForeignKey(User)
show = models.BooleanField(default=False)
show_pub_date = models.DateTimeField(null=True, blank=True)
class ApprovalForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Approval
fields =
('company','product','approval_type','approved','url','comment')
#Views.py
products = Product.objects.filter(company=company_id)
companies = Company.objects.filter(id=company_id)
types = Approval_Type.objects.all()
data = {'company': companies,
'product': products,
'approval_type': types,
'approved': False,
'url': 'www.someWebSite.com',
'comment': 'Enter Comment Here',}
form = ApprovalForm(data, initial={'company': company_id,
'product':product_id})
My Expectations for the company and product content is:
1. I want all the companies injected into the form.
2. I only want the products that relate to the initial company that is
selected. (This is because in the template I want to list only the
products that relate to the current selected company via JQuery).
The only fields being assigned are the ones that are not multiple
choice ones (url is ok, comment, etc). How do I assign the data for
the company and product fields?
Any advise is welcome
