I am trying to send data from django forms to backend sqlite3. But I am unable to do so. I am not also getting any error or warning that help me to sort it out.
Here is models.py file
from django.db import models
GENDER_CHOICES = [
('Male', 'M'),
('Female', 'F')]
class upload(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
gender = models.CharField(max_length=10, choices=GENDER_CHOICES)
phone = models.CharField(max_length=50,null=True)
email= models.EmailField(max_length=50,null=True)
file=models.FileField(upload_to='uploads/')
def __str__(self):
return self.name
here is forms.py file
from django.forms import ModelForm
from .models import upload
class uploadForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = upload
fields = ['name', 'gender', 'phone', 'email','file']
Here is view.py file
from django.shortcuts import render
from .forms import uploadForm
from django.shortcuts import render
def home(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = uploadForm()
if form.is_valid():
form=form.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('/')
else:
form = uploadForm()
return render(request,'home.html',{'print':form})
I am unable to understand where is the issue
This is how template file look like
<form method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
{{ print.as_p }}
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
EDIT
This issue is with FileField, I removed it, and it start saving in django database. What I want is to save file in media folder and other data in database
I also added enctype="multipart/form-data" in form
IdrisSan :
I don't think your actually sending anything to the database.\nWhere is says form = uploadForm() you need state you want the posted data to be sent. so this needs to be form = uploadForm(request.POST) it should then work I believe. Also when saving the form, remove the form=form.save() and leave it as form.save()\nTry it out and let us know?",
