I am in the process of building a replacement admin change_list for
one of my models. My goal is to allow some of the more common fields
to be edited on the change_list page as opposed to having to click on
each individual to make changes.
So, I have a basic model:
class Site(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
url = models.URLField(null=True, blank=True)
category = models.ForeignKey(Category, null=True, blank=True)
notes = models.TextField(null=True, blank=True)
and I have created a basic form with the fields I would like to be
able to edit on the change_list page:
class SiteChangeListForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Site
fields = ('category', 'notes')
so I know that I can create an instance with the appropriate default
values by doing something like this:
siteobject = Site.objects.get(pk=1)
form = SiteChangeListForm(instance=siteobject)
Then I could include that instance in my context.
However, I am using the object_list generic view and I would like a
form instance with appropriately populated for each object. So I can
do something like this:
{{ for site in object_list }}
<div>Category: {{ site.form.category }}</div>
<div>Notes: {{ site.form.category }}</div>
{{ endfor }}
I guess I am just at a loss as to how I would create the appropriate
instances of the form and make them available in the context. Any
help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve
