I think I'm making this harder than it should be. Could someone help
me out here please? The gist is that I'm trying to display a list of
events like the following. I'm getting the error "'offset' is not
allowed without 'limit'" which doesn't seem right. I'm thinking
someone will spot a much simpler way to accomplish this that I'm not
seeing being new to Django. Thanks in advance...
<h2>April</h2>
<b>April 10</b>
Event title<br>
Event body
<b>Event date</b>
Event title<br>
Event body
<h2>May</h2>
...
I have this events/models.py:
from django.db import models
class Event(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(maxlength=200)
body = models.TextField('Description')
date_from = models.DateField('Starting date')
date_to = models.DateField('Ending date', blank=True, null=True)
class Admin:
list_display = ('title','date_from')
search_fields = ('title','body')
date_hierarchy = 'date_from'
def __str__(self):
return self.title
def longMonth(self):
return self.date_from.strftime("%B")
This is my events/views.py:
from website.events.models import Event
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
def index(request):
return list(request)
def list(request):
"""
Sets up a list of tuples: (month, list of events)
[("March", [<event object>, <event object>]), ("April", [<>])]
"""
evts = Event.objects.all().order_by('date_from')
events_list = []
prev_month = evts[0].longMonth()
evlist = [evts[0]]
evts = evts[1:]
for e in evts:
if prev_month == e.longMonth():
evlist.append(e)
else:
events_list.append( (prev_month, evlist) )
prev_month = e.longMonth()
evlist = [e]
return render_to_response('events/index.html', {'events_list':
events_list})
And my templates/events/index.html template:
{% extends "base.html" %}
{% block title %}Events{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
<h1>Events Calendar</h1>
{% if events_list %}
{% for evtuple in events_list %}
{% ifchanged %}<h2>{{ evtuple.0|date:"F" }}</h2>{%
endifchanged %}
{% for e in evtuple.1 %}
<b>{{ e.date_from }}</b><br>
{{ e.title }}<br>
{{ e.body }}
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
{% endblock %}
