I'm working on learning Django, and I'm having trouble getting a basic
"todo" app working.
I'm listing all my todo items in my template, with a checkbox next to each
one for "done".
I have an update button that goes to a view that updates all the item's done
values.
But, it's not working. It doesn't store my updates. I can edit it through
the admin without problems, but I can't get it to work with my code.
Here's my view:
*********************
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
from django.http import Http404, HttpResponse, HttpResponseRedirect
from django_test.todo.models import TodoItem
def list(request):
todos = []
for item in TodoItem.objects.all():
todo_dict = {}
todo_dict['todo_title'] = item.Title
todo_dict['todo_description'] = item.Description
todo_dict['done'] = item.Done
todo_dict['id']= item.id
todos.append(todo_dict)
return render_to_response(' todo.html', {'todos': todos})
def new(request):
todo = TodoItem(Title=request.POST['Title'],
Description=request.POST['Description'],
Done=False)
todo.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('/list/')
def update(request):
checked = request.POST.getlist('doneArray')
for item in TodoItem.objects.all ():
try:
checked.index(item.id)
item.Done=True
except:
item.Done=False
item.save
return HttpResponseRedirect('/list/')
and here's my template code:
************
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd ">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>To-do List</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>To-do List</h1>
<form action="/update/" method="post">
{% for item in todos %}
<b>{{ item.todo_title }}</b>
<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="doneArray" value={{ item.id}} {% if
item.done %} checked {% endif %}> {{ item.todo_description }}
<br
<br>
{% endfor %}
<input type="submit" value="Update"/>
</form>
<h2>Add new todo:</h2>
<form action="/new/" method="post">
<b>Title: </b><input type="textfield" name="Title"/>
<b>Description: <input type="textfield" name="Description"/>
<input type="submit" value="New"/>
</form>
</body>
</html>
************************************
What am I doing wrong? And is there a better way for me to check which
item's done status has changed, besides iterating through my whole list of
items?
Thanks for any help you can give to a django newbie!
