Hi, I have a database of related data connected via foreign keys. One to many relationships between one table and various other tables.
Random example: Client - id - name - age Receipts - id - client (fk) - timestamp Contacts - id - client (fk) - timestamp I have my urls.py looking something like this: urlpatterns = patterns('mysites.shop.views', (r'^$', 'index'), (r'^client/(?P<client_id>\d+)/$', 'details'), (r'^client/(?P<client_id>\d+)/receipts/$', 'receipts'), (r'^client/(?P<client_id>\d+)/contacts/$', 'contacts'), ) I have similar data displayed on my details, receipts and contacts page because they are related. So I show in the main content div the client details and receipts and contacts in side bar on the details view, then I swap the relevant section to the main div depending on the view I want. The thing here is that I basically just use the same view function, but move things around in the template. Should I be repeating the views and creating a template for each situation? Here's what my views.py looks like (continuing with random example): from django.shortcuts import render_to_response, get_object_or_404 from lymphoma.ldata.models import Patient, Pathology def index(request): client_list = Clients.objects.all().order_by('-timestamp') return render_to_response('shop/index.html', {'client_list': client_list}) def details(request, client_id): c = Clients.objects.get(pk=client_id) receipt_list = c.receipts_set.all() contacts_list = c.contacts_set.all() return render_to_response('shop/details.html', {'client': c, 'receipt_list': receipt_list, 'ccontact_list': contact_list}) def receipts(request, client_id): c = Clients.objects.get(pk=client_id) receipt_list = c.receipts_set.all() contacts_list = c.contacts_set.all() return render_to_response('shop/receipts.html', {'client': c, 'receipt_list': receipt_list, 'ccontact_list': contact_list}) def receipts(request, client_id): c = Clients.objects.get(pk=client_id) receipt_list = c.receipts_set.all() contacts_list = c.contacts_set.all() return render_to_response('shop/contacts.html', {'client': c, 'receipt_list': receipt_list, 'ccontact_list': contact_list}) Note that all I change in these views is the template. So, what am I doing wrong here? What I currently have works, but I'm sure I'm not proceeding properly. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.
