I am a relatively new to Django, and have just run into a wall, but I am sure this will be a cake walk for you veterans out there. I have a list of items I am displaying in a table in a template. That is no problem I create an object (list of values) in my view send it to the template and render the table. However, I would like to also show on my template a bunch of count()’s displayed as links, that when clicked will further filter the list of items displayed. For example, I may have items in the list that cost between $25 and $50, my link would show that there are say 20 items that match that criteria. When the link is selected in sends a request to the url.py that in turn executes a view that further filters the queryset then renders template again.
How do I get the count() info to the template? I do not think I can send two separate lists (objects) to the template (at least I have not been able to figure out how yet). I think I need to get the counts at the view and then somehow append them to my list object, but I’m not sure how to do that and also, not quite sure how to parse those values in the template. I want the counts to show separate from the table generated from my list object, and I am somewhat concerned I’m going to mess up my table that is working fine now. I would appreciate any suggestions you have about how to tackle this, and I would really appreciate code examples because I am still somewhat Python/Django code challenged.
