Djeneric Views (Django)

Extending views

Wrap view function for plain text
def author_list_plaintext(request): response = list_detail.object_list( queryset = Author.objects.all(), mimetype = "text/plain", template_name = "bookstore/author_list.txt" ) response["Content-Disposition"] = "attachment; filename=authors.txt" return response
Wrap view function to update field
import datetime from bookstore.models import Author from django.views.generic import list_detail from django.shortcuts import get_object_or_404 def author_detail(request, author_id): # Look up the Author (and raise a 404 if she's not found) author = get_object_or_404(Author, pk=author_id) # Record the last accessed date author.last_accessed = datetime.datetime.now() author.save() # Show the detail page return list_detail.object_detail( request, queryset = Author.objects.all(), object_id = author_id, )
from bookstore.views import author_detail urlpatterns = patterns('', #... (r'^authors/(?Pd+)/$', author_detail), )
add the last_accessed field to your Author model
Wrap view function to filter
from bookstore.models import Book from django.views.generic import list_detail def browse_alphabetically(request, letter): return list_detail.object_list( request, queryset = Book.objects.filter(title__startswith=letter), template_name = "bookstore/browse_alphabetically.html", extra_context = { 'letter' : letter, } )
from bookstore.views import browse_alphabetically urlpatterns = patterns('', # ... (r'^books/by-title/([a-z])/$', browse_alphabetically) )
This works because there’s really nothing special about generic views — they’re just Python functions. Like any view function, generic views expect a certain set of arguments and return HttpResponse objects. Thus, it’s incredibly easy to wrap a small function around a generic view that does additional work before — or after; see below — handing things off to the generic view.
Add extra_context

Common Arguments (Optional)

override 'object'/'object_list'.
override queryset default = /_list.html, e.g., bookstore/author_list.html
used for resulting document
book_info = { "queryset" : Book.objects.all(), "date_field" : "publication_date", "extra_context" : { "publisher_list" : Publisher.objects.all(), } }
any callable called just before render.
context_processors (template)
list
else 404

Complex

create_update. (CRUD CReate/Update/Delete)
delete_object (_confirm_delete.html)

If this view is fetched with GET, it will display a confirmation page (i.e. “do you really want to delete this object?”). If the view is submitted with POST, the object will be deleted without confirmation.

update_object (_form.html)

object

w/r/t template_object_name

form (FormWrapper instance)

commonargs (5)

from django.conf.urls.defaults import * from django.views.generic import list_detail, date_based, create_update from bookstore.models import Publisher, Author, Book book_info = { "queryset" : Book.objects.all(), "date_field" : "publication_date", } urlpatterns = patterns('', (r'^books/edit/(?P\d+)/$', create_update.update_object, {'model' : Book}), )

create_object (_form.html)

FormWrapper example

{{ form.name }}

{{ form.address }}

form (FormWrapper instance)

commonargs (4)

mimetype (?)

login_required

default = False

post_save_redirect

• post_save_redirect may contain dictionary string formatting, which will be interpolated against the object's field attributes. For example, you could use post_save_redirect="/polls/%(slug)s/".

default = object.get_absolute_url()

model

from django.conf.urls.defaults import * from django.views.generic import list_detail, date_based, create_update from bookstore.models import Publisher, Author, Book book_info = { "queryset" : Book.objects.all(), "date_field" : "publication_date", } urlpatterns = patterns('', (r'^books/create/$', create_update.create_object, {'model' : Book}), )

"very rough idea of security"

Note that these views all have a very rough idea of security. Although they take a login_required attribute which if given will restrict access to logged-in users, that’s as far as it goes. They won’t, for example, check that the user editing an object is the same user that created it, nor will they validate any sort of permissions. Much of the time, however, those features can be accomplished by writing a small wrapper around the generic view; see “extending generic views”, below, for more about this topic.
