How can I set my function in views.py so that a form redirects to the same page after submitting?
For example, I want to add time slots:
In my views.py:
@login_required
def post_available_timeslots(request):
print("Check")
if not check_existing_timeslot(request):
print("Time slot does not exist")
instance = TimeSlot()
data = request.POST.copy()
data["time_slot_owner"] = request.user
# data["food_avail_id"] = FoodAvail.objects.get(author=request.user).pk
form = TimeSlotForm(data or None, instance=instance)
if request.POST and form.is_valid():
form.save()
return redirect("food_avail:view_food_avail_res")
else:
print("Time slot does not exist")
messages.info(request, "Time Slot Already Exists")
return render(request, "food_avail/view_food.html", {"time_slot": form})
in models.py
class TimeSlot(models.Model):
time_slot_owner = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
# food_avail_id = models.ForeignKey(FoodAvail, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
start_time = models.TimeField()
end_time = models.TimeField()
def __str__(self):
return str(self.start_time) + "-" + str(self.end_time)
In forms.py: class TimeSlotForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = TimeSlot
fields = ["start_time", "end_time"]
In urls.py:
from django.urls import path
from food_avail import views
app_name = "food_avail"
urlpatterns = [
path("post_food_avail/", views.post_available_food, name="post_food_avail"),
# path("post_food_avail/", views.FoodAvailCreateView.as_view(), name="post_food_avail"),
# path("update_food_avail/", views.post_available_food, name="update_food_avail"),
path("food_avail_all/", views.check_food_availibility, name="view_food_avail"),
path("food_avail_res/", views.view_available_food, name="view_food_avail_res"),
# path("food_avail_res/", views.post_available_timeslots, name="create_timeslots"),
]
in my html template:
{% if form.errors %}
{% for field in form %}
{% for error in field.errors %}
<div class="alert alert-danger">
{{ field.label }} <strong>{{ error|escape }}</strong>
</div>
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
{% for error in form.non_field_errors %}
<div class="alert alert-danger">
{{ field.label }} <strong>{{ error|escape }}</strong>
</div>
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
{% if user.is_authenticated %}
<div>
<div>
<div>
<div>
<h4>
{{ food.author.username }}<br>
</h4>
</div>
<div>
Food Available: {{ food.food_available }}<br>
Description: {{ food.description }}<br>
{% endif %}
</div>
</div>
<div>
<h4>Add Time Slot</h4>
<br><br>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<form method="post">
{{ time_slot.as_p }}
<button type="submit" class="button btn-success">Submit</button>
</form>
</div>
{% if time_slot %}
<h4> List Of Time Slots </h4>
</div>
<div class="card-body">
<div class="table-responsive">
<table class="table table-hover ">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Start Time</th>
<th>End Time</th>
<th>Edit</th>
<th>Delete</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
{% for x in time_slot %}
<tr>
<td>{{x.start_time | time:'H:i:s'}}</td>
<td>{{x.end_time | time:'H:i:s'}}</td>
<td>
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
I have been stuck on this problem for a minute now so any help would be much appreciated. This is how it currently shows up on my HTML template:
