inline formset
Hi,
I'm a bit stuck with inline formset. I missed something.
I'm using django 1.1.1.
I have a model:
class Address(models.Model):
street = ...
number = ...
...
class Person(models.Model):
first_name = ...
last_name =
address = models.ForeignKey(Address)
...
Based on this model, I would like to have one form to add a person and her
address. In order to achieve this, I'm using inline formset.
As far as I understood, formset allows to add multiple form on a page and
inline formset is an extension that allows to play with related objects.
I written the following view (based on the documentation located at [1])
[1] http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.1/topics/forms/modelforms/#inline-
formsets
def add_person_form(request):
address = Address()
PersonFormSet = inlineformset_factory(Address, Person, max_num = 1,
can_delete = False)
if request.method == 'POST':
formset = PersonFormSet(request.POST, request.FILES, instance =
address)
if formset.is_valid():
formset.save()
return redirect('/person')
else:
formset = PersonFormSet(instance = address)
return render_to_response('person/add_form.html', { "formset": formset } )
My template looks like (simplified version):
{{ formset }}
This only displays the person but not the address.
Extra question: if I want to display the fields in a given order, let's say:
first_name, last_name, and then all fields from Address object followed by the
remaining fields from Person. What is the best way of doing it ?
Thanks for your support,
Frédéric Burlet.

Indeed, or have a look at QueryDict: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.1/ref/request-response/#querydict-objects Frédéric Burlet. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
Re: {% if ... in ... %} template tags not working
Which version of django are you running ?
The in operator in the if statement only works in the development version of
django not with 1.1 or 1.0 series. (see warning on top of the page)

Abstract model classes and foreign keys
Hi, I'm facing an issue when modeling a couple of tables by using abstract classes. Here is an extract of my model: class TypeConstant(models.Model): code = models.CharField(max_length = 8, unique = True) description = models.CharField(max_length = 32) class Meta: abstract = True class TypeConstantI18n(models.Model): code = models.ForeignKey(ConstantType, related_name = 'code') locale = models.CharField(max_length = 5) translation = models.CharField(max_length = 32) class Meta: abstract = True class Title(TypeConstant): pass class TitleI18n(TypeConstantI18n): pass But this obviously doesn't work since the ForeignKey in TypeConstantI18n points to an abstract class, it should be specific instead. I could solve my issue by adding the attribute "code" in each "TypeConstantI18n" subclasses but I'm wondering if there are no other way to do it. Maybe it's more a python programming issue than a django issue. I'm using django 1.1.1. Any hint will be appreciated.

For flash applications, you can use red5[1] which is an open source flash server implemented in java. It allows you to record/read live streams through flash applications (If you are brave or feisty... you could implement this server in python ;) [1] http://osflash.org/red5 If you need to implement a client in flash, you can use openlazlo[2] or use an-already-existing client. I know that the dokeos[3] project has one but I never tried to compile it or install it myself.

ModelForm using ModelForm
Hi, I'm new in the python world and therefore in django. I'm using django 1.1.1. I started to write a small application and I have a question related to ModelForms. I defined two model objects: class Person(models.Model): first_name = ... last_name = ... address = models.ForeignKey(Address) ... class Address(models.Model): street = ... number = ... ... I would like to know whether it is possible to write something like this with forms.ModelForm. class AddressForm(forms.ModelForm): class Meta: model = Address class PersonForm(forms.ModelForm): address = AddressForm class Meta: model = Person I tested it but it doesn't seem to work. So I would like to know if we can do this or if I missed something to get it working. I didn't seen anything related to this in the documentation (or maybe I missed it). Thanks for your help.
