Hi,
I am playing around on adding a search feature to a website. I am currently
encountering a problem when the page should load a list of songs and after
typing in a song title in the search box:
views.py
class SongListView(ListView):
model = Song
context_object_name = 'songs'
template_name = 'songs/song_list.html'
def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
if request.method == 'GET':
song_name = request.GET.get('name', "Error")
songs = self.model.objects.filter(name__icontains=song_name)
else:
songs = self.models.all()
return render(request, self.template_name, {'songs': songs})
problem is when I click the search button with the text box empty, I am
getting the list of all the song (url: /songs/?name=) but if I just load
the page wihout clicking the submit button (url: /songs/), it doesn't give
me the list all the songs. The search box works if I type the correct song
name as it shows the song title. Problem is the page should load all the
songs before I search a particular song.
Any suggestions so I can enhance my code?
Thanks,
Jarvis
