When I call my form in my view, I am trying to pass MY_VALUE to the form as
an argument.
I am doing this because I want to get my validation out of my views and
into my forms.
*views.py*
OTHER_VALUE = "the query that i run"
if request.method=='POST':
form = MY_FORM(request.POST, OTHER_VALUE)
*forms.py*
class MY_FORM(forms.Form):
real_value = forms.CharField()
def clean_real_value(self):
if OTHER_VALUE ...
*This throws the error:*
__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'OTHER_VALUE'
=========
I've tried setting the init with kwargs
class MY_FORM(forms.Form):
real_value = forms.CharField()
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
OTHER_VALUE = kwargs.pop('OTHER_VALUE')
super(MY_FORM, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
error:
Exception Value: 'employee'
Exception Location: /Users/macbook/Desktop/OrgDB/orgchart/forms.py in
__init__, line 42
