Thank you so much for your help, Melvyn.
With your help I managed to the the code running :)
Here it is, if somebody should find it helpful.
cheers, Mikkel
>From somewhere, e.g. models.py
# The list of model names (just add your model names to it)
def GetItemNames():
return [ 'Year', 'Vintage', 'Region', 'Location' ]
# The generator of paths
def GetItemPaths():
paths = [ ]
for i in GetItemNames():
m = apps.get_model('items', i)
paths.append(path( 'list/'+i+'/' , ItemListView.as_view(
model=m), name=i+'_list' ) )
paths.append(path( 'create/'+i+'/', ItemCreateView.as_view(
model=m), name=i+'_create' ) )
paths.append(path( 'update/'+i+'/<pk>/', ItemUpdateView.as_view(
model=m), name=i+'_update' ) )
paths.append(path( 'delete/'+i+'/<pk>/', ItemDeleteView.as_view(
model=m), name=i+'_delete' ) )
return paths
>From urls.py:
from . models import GetItemPaths
urlpatterns = GetItemPaths() + [
path('/to/some/other/views/' otherview.asView(), name='other_name'),
]
