Hi,
I have an application with a model and a modelform.
I have another application and in a a specific case I would like to
override one attribute from the modelform in the original application.
Example:
class Article(models.Model):
identifier: = models.CharField(max_length=10)
headline = models.CharField(max_length=100)
publications = models.ManyToManyField(Publication)
class ArticleForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Article
def add(request):
form = ArticleForm(request.POST or None)
if request.POST and form.is_valid():
instance = form.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse("add-article",
args=[instance.pk]))
else:
errors = form.errors
context = {
'form': form,
'request': request
}
return render_to_response('article/add.html', context)
Now I have another application that uses the articles application but
in another way so that the identifier is not used and should not
appear in the form to add an Article.
What is the best way to do it?
I considered 2 things:
1 - make the view a class and override the form attribute in the new
application.
2 - make the form an attribute of the view function and override it in
the new application
Am I thinking correctly? What are the best practices on this topic?
Thanks,
