I'm trying to build a page for an inventory system that will allow a user to update a quantity of items received.
I want to show a table of all products and let the user enter the quantity received, which I'll post and iterate over to update the database.
Here is my view:
def new_shipment(request):
list_of_active_products = Product.objects.filter(status=1)
ShipmentFormSet = formset_factory(ShipmentForm, extra=0)
formset = ShipmentFormSet(initial=list_of_active_products)
return render_to_response('inventory/new_shipment.html', {'formset': formset})
Here's my model for the form:
class ShipmentForm(forms.Form):
sku = forms.IntegerField()
product_name = forms.CharField(max_length=100)
quantity = forms.IntegerField()
And here is the form template:
<form method="post" action="">
<table>
{% for form in formset %}
{{ form }}
{% endfor %}
</table>
<input type="submit" />
</form>
And here is the error I'm getting:
Caught AttributeError while rendering: 'Product' object has no attribute 'get'
Can anyone help me out with this?
You can also use the queryset argument. This should work:
formset = ShipmentFormSet(queryset=list_of_active_products)
cf. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/forms/modelforms/#changing-the-queryset
