I tried to save a record using two different methods but both are not working.
1 I have created a ModelForm
class ProductForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model= ProductDetails
fields= ("name","category","subcategory","price","mrp","product_details","main_img","img1","img2","img3")
labels={
"name":"Product Name",
"product_details":"Description",
"category":"Category",
"subcategory":"Sub-Category",
"price":"Price",
"mrp":"MRP",
"main_img":"Main Image",
"img1":"Image 1",
"img2":"Image 2",
"img3":"Image 3",
}
widgets = {
'name':forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'form-control validate',}),
'product_details':forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'form-control validate',}),
'category':forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'custom-select tm-select-accounts',}),
'subcategory':forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'custom-select tm-select-accounts',}),
'price':forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'form-control validate',}),
'mrp':forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'form-control validate',}),
'main_img':forms.FileInput(attrs={'class':'btn btn-primary btn-block mx-auto',}),
'img1':forms.FileInput(attrs={'class':'btn btn-primary btn-block mx-auto',}),
'img2':forms.FileInput(attrs={'class':'btn btn-primary btn-block mx-auto',}),
'img3':forms.FileInput(attrs={'class':'btn btn-primary btn-block mx-auto',}),
}
Models File
# For Product details
class ProductDetails(models.Model):
name= models.CharField(max_length=100)
price= models.FloatField()
mrp= models.FloatField()
main_img = models.ImageField(upload_to='product_img')
img1 = models.ImageField(upload_to='product_img')
img2 = models.ImageField(upload_to='product_img')
img3 = models.ImageField(upload_to='product_img')
category = models.ForeignKey(Category, related_name='produits', on_delete=models.CASCADE)
subcategory = models.ForeignKey(SubCategory, related_name='produits', on_delete=models.CASCADE)
product_details = RichTextField(blank=True, null=True)
trending = models.BooleanField(default=False)
def __str__(self):
return self.name
Method 1
Save record using form.save()
getting Form validation error
I have tried by removing main_img,img1,img2,img3 from all place (Forms.py, template, views,py). Then there is not validation error and record is getting saved successfully.
The validation error is just because of some issue with the image uploading
print(form.errors)=
<ul class="errorlist"><li>main_img<ul class="errorlist"><li>This field is required.</li></ul></li><li>img1<ul class="errorlist"><li>This field is required.</li></ul></li><li>img2<ul class="errorlist"><li>This field is required.</li></ul></li><li>img3<ul class="errorlist"><li>This field is required.</li></ul></li></ul>
def add_product(request):
if request.method == "POST":
form = ProductForm(request.POST or None, request.FILES or None)
print(form.errors )
if form.is_valid():
category_id = request.POST.get('category')
subcategory_id = request.POST.get('subcategory')
category= Category.objects.get(id=int(category_id))
subcategory= SubCategory.objects.get(id=int(subcategory_id))
form.category = category
form.subcategory = subcategory
form.save()
return redirect("/dashboard/products")
form = ProductForm()
categories=Category.objects.all()
subcategories=SubCategory.objects.all()
return render(request, "01-add-product.html", "form":form,"categories":categories,"subcategories":subcategories})
Method 2
Tried Saving records using models.save() The record is getting saved but image is not getting uploaded to the media folder On saving record from Django-admin the image is getting uploaded to proper place i.e. /media.product_img/... But From this outside HTML its showing the file name in Django-admin but the file is not available in media folder
I already added urlpattern + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT) in my project/urls.py.
Also tried adding the same in urls.py of this app
Note = I have mentioned upload_to=product_img in my model (this may be important to know)
def add_product(request):
if request.method == "POST":
name = request.POST['name']
product_details = request.POST['product_details']
category_id = request.POST.get('category')
subcategory_id = request.POST.get('subcategory')
category= Category.objects.get(id=int(category_id))
subcategory= SubCategory.objects.get(id=int(subcategory_id))
price = request.POST['price']
mrp = request.POST['mrp']
main_img = request.POST['main_img']
img1 = request.POST['img1']
img2 = request.POST['img2']
img3 = request.POST['img3']
product = ProductDetails.objects.create(name=name,product_details=product_details,category=category,subcategory=subcategory,price=price,mrp=mrp,main_img=main_img,img1=img1,img2=img2,img3=img3)
product.save()
Here is my template

{% load static %}

Please help me to get solution for this.
You need to add enctype="multipart/form-data"> in Html form so:
<form action="/" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
{% csrf_token %}
<label for="fname">First name:</label>
<input type="text" id="fname" name="fname"><br><br>
<label for="lname">Last name:</label>
<input type="text" id="lname" name="lname"><br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
