I'm trying to extract an entered domain name and split it up so that i can
store unique domains in a specific table
The flow
user will enter website address > model takes website address > splits it
into sub_domain, domain and suffix and stores the values in the appropriate
split fields
so far my extraction works, i can get the values into a list and assign the
values to the appropriate variables, using the shell i'm adding new sites
but and the domain is going into the domain_name field but i am not getting
the data split
I'm only two weeks into learning python and Django and i love it but this
has stopped me in my tracks for now, any help appreciated
class Website(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100, default=' ')
description = models.TextField(max_length=2000, blank=True)
domain_name = models.URLField(unique=True)
sub_domain =models.CharField(max_length=56, blank=True, default='')
suffix = models.CharField(max_length=56, blank=True, default='')
is_secure = models.BooleanField(null=True)
logo = models.CharField(max_length=256, default="placeholder.png")
type = models.CharField(choices=WEBSITE_TYPES, default='O', max_length=15)
def __str__(self):
return self.name
def validate_and_split_domain(self):
domain = self.domain_name.lower() # make all lower case because django
isn't case sensitive
values = list(tldextract.extract(domain))
self.sub_domain, self.domain_name, self.suffix = values[0], values[1],
values[2]
def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
Website.validate_and_split_domain()
super(Website, self).save(*args, **kwargs)
