Hello Django Users, I'm having trouble accessing dictionary elements within a nested for loop. here are some code snippets:
# here is the python code that sets up the page class DocumentPage(webapp.RequestHandler): def get(self): # get a list of documents from google app engine datastore documents = Document.all().order('-date') # for every document, get it's associated taglist and stick that in a dictionary tag_dict = {} for document in documents: tag_dict[document.uid] = DocumentTag.all().filter('docid =',document.uid) template_values = { 'documents': documents, 'tag_dict': tag_dict } path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'document.html') self.response.out.write(template.render(path, template_values)) # so far so good, but then I try to iterate over the documents and their associated tags in a template # here is the template with the html stripped out for readability {% for document in documents %} {{ document.content }} {% for doctag in tag_dict[document.uid] %} {{ doctag.tagid }} {% endfor % } {% endfor %} # document.content is fine, but when I try to access tag_dict within the template's for loop, it complains: TemplateSyntaxError: Could not parse the remainder: [document.uid] # I've tried running essentially the same code in python (without touching django templates), and it seems fine. So there's something about django templates that doesn't accessing a particular dictionary element within the opening tag of a for loop. I'm aware that there is a hack whereby one accesses dict.items, but that seems to defeat the whole purpose of a dictionary, which is to quickly access a particular element. # Any help would be greatly appreciated!! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
