I am very new to Django. I have followed the tutorial and instruction in
document and create a couple models: Student and Course.
Student has Course as "RelatedObjectsDescriptor"
Course has Student as ForeignKey
*Course is *TabularInline object of Student.
I was able to create Student object and add Courses Objects to student in
Admin page succeessfully.
Since I have a lot of student records and each student have number of
course assigned. I would like to create a python script either using
Sqlite interface or object in view to populate the database with these
records.
What I have done are the following:
student = Student.objects.create(...)
for each course:
course = Course.objects.create(...)
student.courses.add(course)
student.courses.connect(course)
When I view the database, all students were added and all the course were
added to the appropriate student; However when I view in record in the admin
page (change/update), none of the courses show as inline objects.
If I add the course to the student via admin page, they all show up correctly.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I am using Django 1.6
with the following APPs
'autocomplete_light',
'navigation_autocomplete',
'genericm2m',
models.py
class Course(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
instructor = models.CharField(max_length=100)
student = models.ForeignKey('Student', null=True, blank=True)
def __str__(self):
return (self.name)
class Student(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
courses = RelatedObjectsDescriptor()
def __str__(self):
return (self.name)
forms.py
class StudentForm(autocomplete_light.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Student
exclude = ()
class CourseForm(autocomplete_light.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Course
exclude = ()
admin.py
class CourseInline(admin.TabularInline):
model = Course
form = CourseForm
extra = 3
class StudentAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
form = StudentForm
search_fields = ('name', )
fields = ('name', )
ordering = ('name',)
inlines = [CourseInline]
admin.site.register(Student, StudentAdmin)
autocomplete_light_registry.py
class StudentAutocomplete(autocomplete_light.AutocompleteGenericBase):
choices = Student.objects.all()
search_fields = ('name',)
autocomplete_js_attributes = {'placeholder': 'suggestions...',
'minimum_characters': 0}
autocomplete_light.register(StudentAutocomplete)
class CourseAutocomplete(autocomplete_light.AutocompleteGenericBase):
choices = Course.objects.all()
search_fields = ('name', 'instructor')
autocomplete_js_attributes = {'placeholder': 'suggestions...',
'minimum_characters': 0}
autocomplete_light.register(CourseAutocomplete)
