Re: How to create a Generic Show View ?
Hi Koen,
I think your code snippet will work fine in my application too. But, how
instantiate the DisplayModelForm directly in my urls.py showed below?
(r'^core/user/show/(?P\d+)/$', 'object_detail',
dict(queryset=User.objects.all(),
template_name="baseshow.html",
extra_context={'model_entity':'user'}))
Should I use the 'django.views.generic.create_update.create_object' view? I
want only to use the urls.py without write in views.py to instantiate the
form.
Is it possible?
Thanks.
Mario Hozano.

How to show a model count value in a html page?
Hi People.
I am new in Django. I am implementing a web application using the
django template support. In this way, i am using a single 2-columns
template. While the second column changes according to the presented
content, the first column shows the menu and some statistical
information for all pages. This information must indicate the number
of entities of the model, for example the number of registered users.
I want to know how show the number of registered users in that page.
Do I need to retrieve this value to each action described in views.py?
The code presented below does not work.
Statistics
Users({{User.objects.count}})
...
Regards.
Mario Hozano.

How to create a Generic Show View ?
Hi People.
I am new in Django and I am using the django support to create generic
views (CRUD) in my app. To handle Create and Show actions, i have
written 2 main pages with the code snippets described below.
baseform.html
{% for field in form %}
{{ field.label_tag }}{% if field.field.required %}*{% endif
%}
{{ field }}
{% if field.help_text %}{{ field.help_text }}{% endif %}
{% if field.errors %}{{ field.errors }}{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
baseshow.html.
{% for key, value in object.as_dict.items %}
{{ key.capitalize }}
{{ value }}
{% endfor %}
These pages are called directly from my urls.py that uses the Generic
views supported by django. In this sense, the baseform.html can be
used by all model classes, because the ModelForm handles the
presentation of each model attribute (excluding id) transparently.
In baseshow.html I need to show the same attributes of a given model
class, as done in baseform.html. In this case, the attributes
(excluding id) must be presented in a read-only mode, with html labels
instead of input widgets. To do it, i've implemented a "as_dict"
method in each model class. This method only returns the
"self.__dict__" attribute of the model classes, hence, the private
attributes cannot be acessed from templates.
The solution presented works, but it is ugly, because the id attribute
must be verified on template and it needs to adjust the model class to
work fine.
Does Django offer another way to present the model attributes in a
Show view? Is it possible to use a ModelForm class to show the
attribute values in html labels?
Thanks.
