所以我想创建一个带有单个输入字段的超级基本表单,用于查询我的数据库。
我的模型(models.py
)如下:
from django.db import models
class Book(models.Model):
uid = models.IntegerField(primary_key=True)
title = models.CharField(max_length=30)
class Meta:
db_table = u'books'
forms.py
:
from django import forms
from myapp.models import Book
class EnterIDForm(forms.form):
book_id = forms.CharField()
# add a custom clean function to validate that the user input
# is a valid book ID
def clean_book_id(self):
try:
book_id = int(self.cleaned_data["book_id"])
except:
book_id = None
if book_id and Book.objects.filter(uid=book_id).count():
return book_id
else:
raise forms.ValidationError("Please enter a valid book ID number.")
views.py
:
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
from myapp.models import Book
def form_view(request):
if request.method == "POST":
# the user has submitted the form, see if we have a book
book_id_form = EnterIDForm(request.POST) # instantiate our form class with the user data
if book_id_form.is_valid():
# if our form is valid, then we have a book_id that works:
the_book = Book.objects.get(uid=book_id_form.cleaned_data["book_id"])
return render_to_response("book_template.html", { "the_book": the_book }, context_instance=RequestContext(request))
# if the form wasn't valid, it will fall through to the other return statement.
else:
# If the user didn't submit a form, instantiate a blank one.
book_id_form = EnterIDForm()
return render_to_response("form_template.html", { "book_id_form": book_id_form }, context_instance=RequestContext(request))
我希望输入字段从用户收集“uid”并显示Book模型实例中的所有数据,其中uid是数据库中的某本书。
我了解表单如何与视图以及后来的模板相关联,但我似乎无法让它工作。
我无休止地搜索了Django网站和许多其他资源,我可以从中学到一些例子,但没有。
有人介意帮助我吗?
感谢。

您可以在此处进行简单搜索。您不需要任何POST调用或表单创建。但是,如果要创建表单,仍应指向正确的方向。
尝试这样的事情:
search.html:
<form method="get" action="/search/">
Search Notecards:<input type="text" name="q" id="id_q" value="{{ query }}"/>
<input type="submit" value="Search" />
</form>
views.py:
from myapp.models import Book
from django.template import RequestContext
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
def search(request):
query = request.GET.get('q')
try:
query = int(query)
except ValueError:
query = None
results = None
if query:
results = Book.objects.get(uid=query)
context = RequestContext(request)
return render_to_response('results.html', {"results": results,}, context_instance=context)
results.html:
{% if results %}
{% for result in results %}
{{ result.uid }}
{{ result.xxxx }}
{{ result.xxxx }}
{% endfor %}
{% else %}
<h3 class='error'>Please enter a valid UID</h3>
<form method="get" action="/search/">
Search Notecards:<input type="text" name="q" id="id_q" value="{{ query }}"/>
<input type="submit" value="Search" />
</form>
{% endif %}
