Re: Retrieving an ID from a posted form

Nick,

Because you won't get an id for your newly created object before you
save it you'll need to send the email after you save the form. I'm
assuming that ArtistFormFinal is a ModelForm but you can get the id
using something like the following:

myobj = form.save()
send_mail(subject, "Your id is %d!" % myobj.id, email_address, recipients)

I hope that's what you were looking for.

Ian

Retrieving an ID from a posted form

2010-04-22 Thread Nick 
I am working on a form process with multiple levels of submission. The
first is a front facing form with a general set of questions that are
to be followed up by someone after the form is submitted (the form
submits and entry to the DB).  To cut down on the amount of hunting
that those who will be reviewing the forms have to do I'd like to be
able to retrieve the ID for the newly created DB entry and attach it
to a url that points directly to that entry in the django admin.

I have the email logic set up so that the form submits all of the
information via email to an individual. In the email is the link to
the admin. So far it just goes to a full list of entries:

ex. http://mydjango.site.com/admin/projects/app/model_name/ID

I can easily send everything up to the ID. How do i retrieve the ID
from the submitted form. Since this is adding an entry to the DB it
has to be creating an ID somewhere.  Here is my view:

def short_form(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = ArtistFormFinal(request.POST, request.FILES)
if form.is_valid():
name = form.cleaned_data['name']
year_created = form.cleaned_data['year_created']
home_city = form.cleaned_data['home_city']
home_state = form.cleaned_data['home_state']
genre = form.cleaned_data['genre']
email_address = form.cleaned_data['email_address']
phone_number = form.cleaned_data['phone_number']
website = form.cleaned_data['website']
audio = form.cleaned_data['audio_file']
subject = 'Static artists submission from %s' % (name)
message = render_to_string('static/short_email.txt', {
'name': name,
'year_created': year_created,
'home_city': home_city,
'genre': genre,
'home_state': home_state,
'email_address': email_address,
'phone_number': phone_number,
'website': website,
'audio': audio
})
recipients = ['ntankers...@opubco.com',
'crobi...@opubco.com']
send_mail(subject, message, email_address, recipients,
fail_silently=False)
form.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('thanks')
else:
form = ArtistFormFinal()
return render_to_response('static/artist_short.html',
{'form':form})
