What I would like to do is to display a single form that lets the user:
- Enter a document title (from
Documentmodel) - Select one of their
user_defined_codechoices from a drop down list (populated by theUserDefinedCodemodel) - Type in a
unique_code(stored in theCodemodel)
I'm not sure how to go about displaying the fields for the foreign key relationships in a form. I know in a view you can use document.code_set (for example) to access the related objects for the current document object, but I'm not sure how to apply this to a ModelForm.
My model:
class UserDefinedCode(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=8)
owner = models.ForeignKey(User)
class Code(models.Model):
user_defined_code = models.ForeignKey(UserDefinedCode)
unique_code = models.CharField(max_length=15)
class Document(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(blank=True, null=True, max_length=200)
code = models.ForeignKey(Code)
active = models.BooleanField(default=True)
My ModelForm
class DocumentForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Document
