How to access submitted form request data in Django

I want value of submitted data in init . I can get data after form.valid() through cleaned_data but can't access those data in init after submitting form

form.py

class MyForm(forms.Form):

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        // Want to access submitted source and medium data here
        super(MyForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        // or Want to access submitted source and medium data here

view.py

I am getting two different value source and medium in request.GET

myform = MyForm(request.GET)
Solution

  • The data is just the first parameter, so we can work with:

    class MyForm(forms.Form):

    def __init__(self, data=None, *args, **kwargs):
        if data is not None and 'source' in data:
            print(data['source'])
        super().__init__(data, *args, **kwargs)
