I'm using haystack and I follow the tutorials. I add haystack to settings, migrate, then I create this
class PostIndex(indexes.SearchIndex, indexes.Indexable):
text = indexes.CharField(document=True, use_template=True)
publish = indexes.DateTimeField(model_attr='publish')
def get_model(self):
return Post
def index_queryset(self, using=None):
"""Used when the entire index for model is updated."""
return self.get_model().objects.all()
in templates I create
search/indexes/blog/post_text.txt
and add this to it
{{ object.title }}
{{ object.tags.all|join:", " }}
{{ object.body }}
in my views.py i add
from haystack.query import SearchQuerySet
then in a view function
def post_search(request):
form = request.GET.get('q')
results = SearchQuerySet().models(Post).filter(content=form)
# count total results
total_results = results.count()
template = 'blog/post/search.html',
context = {
'form': form,
'results': results,
'total_results': total_results
}
return render(request, template, context)
and in a search template
{% for result in results %}
<p>{{result.publish}}</p>
<a href="{{ result.object.get_absolute_url }}">{{ result.object.title }}</a>
but the only thing that gets returned is the publish. If I inspect the a element the href is blank. if I do this
{{results}}
I get something like this
[blog.post.pk(2)] or something like that
these will not work
{{result.object.publish}}<br>
but this will
{{result.publish}}
and to access these
{{result.object.body}}<br>
{{result.object.title}}<br>
{{result.object.slug}}<br>
I go back and add this
class PostIndex(indexes.SearchIndex, indexes.Indexable):
text = indexes.CharField(document=True, use_template=True)
publish = indexes.DateTimeField(model_attr='publish')
# added this
title = indexes.CharField(model_attr='title')
body = indexes.CharField(model_attr='body')
slug = indexes.CharField(model_attr='slug')
def get_model(self):
return Post
def index_queryset(self, using=None):
"""Used when the entire index for model is updated."""
return self.get_model().objects.all()
which is nothing like the the tutorials say What am I doing wrong?
I get my results buy doing this
result.title
not
result.object.title
and from the tutorials I watch and read all they do is this
class PostIndex(indexes.SearchIndex, indexes.Indexable):
text = indexes.CharField(document=True, use_template=True)
publish = indexes.DateTimeField(model_attr='publish')
def get_model(self):
return Post
def index_queryset(self, using=None):
"""Used when the entire index for model is updated."""
return self.get_model().objects.all()
but can access everything like this
result.object.title
result.object.publish
result.object.get_absolute_url
they are obviously accessing the whole object but for some reason I am not. any guidance or a suggestion to something that I could possibly see like a video would be appreciated. I really don't get why I'm not accessing the whole object.
Edit :
my models.py
class Post(models.Model):
STATUS_CHOICES = (
('draft', 'Draft'),
('published', 'Published'),
)
title = models.CharField(max_length=250)
slug = models.SlugField(max_length=250,
unique_for_date='publish')
image = models.ImageField(null=True, blank=True)
author = models.ForeignKey(User,
related_name='blog_posts')
body = models.TextField()
publish = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now)
created = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
updated = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True)
status = models.CharField(max_length=10,
choices=STATUS_CHOICES,
default='draft')
video = models.BooleanField(default=False)
video_path = models.CharField(max_length=320,
null=True,
blank=True,)
class Meta:
ordering = ('-publish',)
def __str__(self):
return self.title
def get_absolute_url(self):
return reverse('blog:post_detail',
args=[self.publish.year,
self.publish.strftime('%m'),
self.publish.strftime('%d'),
self.slug])
objects = models.Manager() # The default manager.
published = PublishedManager() # Our custom manager.
tags = TaggableManager()
I'm using
Django==1.9.4
django-crispy-forms==1.6.0
django-haystack==2.4.1
django-taggit==0.18.0
Pillow==3.1.1
pysolr==3.4.0
pytz==2016.1
requests==2.9.1
python 3.5
Ive updated and rebuilt my schema and I followed Mike Hibbert and read a book called django by example follwed them verbatim and still cant figure it out. Is this some kinf=d of bug?
after researching this for about 3 day now, I have come across information that django 1.9 isnt fully supported so this may be the issue hopefully. Hope this spares someone the anguish that I've went through.
