One of my models has three columns which are M2M fields and each of these three M2M fields has different models.
I want to get a dataset from this product attribute
model as shown in the output SQU below. And this is the dataset I want to get as the queryset
of the model form.
I would be very grateful if someone could give me a little idea on how to do this. Or I'm not sure if the model design is right in the field of getting such a dataset, because I'm brand new to Django.
class ProductAttributes(models.Model):
product = models.ForeignKey('Product', blank=True, null=True, on_delete=models.SET_NULL)
size = models.ManyToManyField('ProductSize', related_name = "productsize")
colour = models.ManyToManyField('ProductColour', related_name="productcolour")
cupsize = models.ManyToManyField('ProductCupSize', related_name="productcupsize")
class ProductSize(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=10)
class ProductColour(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=25)
colour = models.CharField(max_length=15, blank=True, null=True)
class ProductCupSize(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=1)
The way I query data from these three models.
attrs = ProductAttributes.objects.filter(product=product_id).values('product', 'size__name', 'colour__name',
'cupsize__name')
sku = []
for attr in attrs:
att = {'id': '-'.join([str(attr['product']), str(attr['size__name']), str(attr['cupsize__name']),
str(attr['colour__name'])]),
'text': '-'.join(
[str(attr['size__name']), str(attr['cupsize__name']), str(attr['colour__name'])])}
sku.append(att)
output sku:
[{'id': '108-32-B-Grey', 'text': '32-B-Grey'}, {'id': '108-32-C-Grey', 'text': '32-C-Grey'}, {'id': '108-32-B-White', 'text': '32-B-White'}, {'id': '108-32-C-White', 'text': '32-C-White'}, {'id': '108-34-B-Grey', 'text': '34-B-Grey'}, {'id': '108-34-C-Grey', 'text' : '34-C-Grey'}, {'id': '108-34-B-White', 'text': '34-B-White'}, {'id': '108-34-C-White', 'text': '34-C-White'}]
Updated:
self.fields['product_attr'].queryset = ProductAttributes.objects.filter(product_id=108).values("id").annotate(
id_dummy=Concat(
'product', V('-'), 'size__name', V('-'), 'cupsize__name', V('-'), 'colour__name',
output_field=CharField()
),
text=Concat(
'size__name', V('-'), 'cupsize__name', V('-'), 'colour__name',
output_field=CharField()
)
).values("id_dummy", "text").annotate(id=F('id_dummy')).values_list("id", "text")
You can do that with Concat and Value() expressions
The following code should do what you want:
from django.db.models import CharField, F, Value as V
from django.db.models.functions import Concat
attrs = list(ProductAttributes.objects.values("id").annotate(
id_dummy=Concat(
'product', V('-'), 'size__name', V('-'), 'cupsize__name', V('-'), 'colour__name',
output_field=CharField()
),
text=Concat(
'size__name', V('-'), 'cupsize__name', V('-'), 'colour__name',
output_field=CharField()
)
).values("id_dummy", "text").annotate(id=F('id_dummy')).values_list("id", "text")
In your place i would use django-select2
my_choice = forms.ChoiceField(widget=Select2Widget(attrs={'data-placeholder': 'Your placeholder'}), choices=YOURE_CHOICES, required=False)
