I have a form that allows users to submit their name and email address
for an invitation.
I do not want people signing up more than once. The following code
works, but it does not seem like the "Best Practice" solution.
forms.py
[...imports...]
class RequestInvite(forms.Form):
name = forms.CharField(max_length=75)
email = forms.EmailField()
def clean_name(self):
try:
u = UserInvite.objects.get(name__contains =
self.clean_data['name'])
raise ValidationError('You have already signed up.')
except UserInvite.DoesNotExist:
return self.clean_data['name']
def clean_email(self):
try:
u = UserInvite.objects.get(email__contains =
self.clean_data['email'])
raise ValidationError('You have already signed up.')
except UserInvite.DoesNotExist:
return self.clean_data['email']
def save(self):
invite = UserInvite(
name = self.clean_data['name'],
email = self.clean_data['email'],)
invite.save()
views.py
[...imports...]
def request_invite(request):
f = RequestInvite()
if request.method == 'POST':
invite_me = RequestInvite(request.POST)
if invite_me.is_valid():
invite_me.save()
msg = "We will be sending out invitations shortly."
return render_to_response( 'invite/thanks.html',
{'msg': msg})
else:
f = invite_me
return render_to_response( 'invite/index.html',
{'form':f,})
If someone could point me in the right direction it would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks Matt
