Hello I'm working with class based views in Django and I want to create a search form for users to find their own favourite products in my app with multiple filters and excludes but I couldn't do it. my code is here if anyone can modify it to make it right please help me out :
models.py
from django.db.models import models
from django.core.validators import RegexValidators
class Product(models.Model):
num=RegexValidators(r'^[0-9a-zA-Z]*$')
title = models.CharField(max_length=100)
embed_id = models.CharField(max_length=15, validators=[num])
description = models.TextField(null=True, blank=True)
forms.py
from django import forms
class ProductSearchForm(forms.Form):
title = forms.CharField(required=False)
embed_id = forms.CharField(required=False)
description = forms.CharField(required=False)
views.py
from django.views.generic import ListView
from .models import Product
from .forms import ProductSearchForm
class ProductListView(ListView):
model = Product
form_class = ProductSearchForm
template_name = 'pages/product/list_products.html'
def get_queryset(self):
queryset = super().get_queryset()
form = self.form_class(self.request.GET)
if form.is_valid():
title = form.cleaned_data.get('title')
embed_id = form.cleaned_data.get('embed_id')
description = form.cleaned_data.get('description')
if title:
queryset = queryset.filter(title__icontains=title)
if embed_id:
queryset = queryset.filter(embed_id__icontains=embed_id)
if description:
queryset = queryset.filter(description__icontains=description)
return queryset
def get_context_data(self, [**kwargs):
context = super().get_context_data(self, **kwargs):
context['form'] = self.form_class(self.request.GET)
return context
product_search.html
<form method="get" action="{% url 'product_list' %}">
{{ form.as_p }}
<input type="submit" value="Search">
</form>
{% if object_list %}
<ul>
{% for product in object_list %}
<li>{{ product.title }}</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
{% else %}
<p>No product found.</p>
{% endif %}
I know how to handle this in Function based views, but I want to create its generic.listview.
I tried using your code cannot run.
Here is my way:
from django.views.generic import ListView
from .models import Product
from .forms import ProductSearchForm
class ProductListView(ListView):
model = Product
form_class = ProductSearchForm
template_name = 'product.html'
context_object_name = 'products'
def get_queryset(self):
queryset = super().get_queryset()
form = self.form_class(self.request.GET)
if form.is_valid():
title = form.cleaned_data.get('title')
embed_id = form.cleaned_data.get('embed_id')
description = form.cleaned_data.get('description')
if title:
queryset = queryset.filter(title__icontains=title)
if embed_id:
queryset = queryset.filter(embed_id__icontains=embed_id)
if description:
queryset = queryset.filter(description__icontains=description)
return queryset
def get_context_data(self, **kwargs):
context = super().get_context_data(**kwargs)
context['form'] = self.form_class(self.request.GET)
return context
