I'm creating a basic CMS. The CMS will contain information about different
Entities.
A normal users can only see the information about the Entities but an
editor will have access to an Dashboard were it can add new Entities or
updated them.
I have an app Entity that use class-based view (CBV) for
create,update,details,list-display (CRUD).
The urls for listing and details are: /entities and /entity-name
Because update and create are behind login and use different urls I create
a second app Dashboard that use the create/update models of the Entity app
The urls are account/add and account/edit.
*There is another solution to have different urls for views of the same
model ?*
I want the fist page of the dashboard to show different information based
on the following logic(exist and/or is activated):
- if doesn't exist I want the CreateView (CBV) and corresponding form to
appear
- if exist but it is not active a Pending message
- if exists and active the data of the entity
I can do the logic at the template level, but to separate things is better
to be done at the CBV level. So in this case I need some help, how to
implement it.
The Entity is in OneToOne Relationship with User.
I use EntityMixin to check if the user is login and get the corresponding
entity.
Enter code here...
class EntityCreateView(EntityMixin, CreateView):
model = Entity
form_class = EntityModelForm
def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
entity = self.get_entity()
# declare context
context = {}
# if entity found/exist we get the active(Boolean)attribute value/status
if entity:
is_active = entity.active
if is_active:
context['title'] = 'Dashboard'
context['entity'] = self.get_entity()
else:
context['title'] = 'Entity Pending'
else:
context['title'] = 'Add Entity'
context['add_entity_form'] = EntityModelForm
return render(request, 'accounts/dashboard.html', context)
