I have a dictionary of dictionaries that I need to open up in a template.
The dictionary:
'values': {(1L, 2L): {'selling_costs__sum': None, 'sale_price__sum': None,
'debt__sum': None, 'estimate__quote__sum': None},
(3L, 2L): {'selling_costs__sum': Decimal('10.45'), 'sale_price__sum':
Decimal('50.00'), 'debt__sum': Decimal('0.00'), 'estimate__quote__sum':
Decimal('100.00')}}
My templatetag:
from django import template
register = template.Library()
@register.filter
def lookup(container, key):
if type(container) is dict:
return container.get(key)
elif type(container) in (list, tuple):
return container[key] if len(container) > key else None
return None
And my template code:
{% for location in locations %}
{% for category in categories %}
<tr>
<td>{{ location }}</td>
<td>{{ category }}</td>
<td>${{ values|lookup:(location.id, category.id)|lookup:'
selling_costs__sum' }}</td>
</tr>
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
The error I get is: lookup requires 1 arguments, 0 provided.
The location.id and category.id both generate the correct values. It seems
that template tags can't take a tuple as a key for a dictionary.
Also I read that one cannot chain a filter like this. Is this true?
Any suggestions on how to read data from the dictionary values?
Thanks!
Mark
