How to Capture ModelForm Data with Add to Cart Function?

Using Django
1

Hello Everyone,

I hope someone can help me out so i can continue my learning. I took a udemy course and now i want to take the project futher.

I created a ModelForm that has options for size and style. I can get the form to display on the page. I cannot figure out how to get the size and styles added to the cart. I have tried several different ways and no go.

code before trying the get Model Form data.

def add_cart(request, item_id):

item = Item.objects.get(id=item_id)

try:

    cart = Cart.objects.get(cart_id=_cart_id(request))

except Cart.DoesNotExist:

    cart = Cart.objects.create(

        cart_id=_cart_id(request)

    )

    cart.save()

try:

    cart_item = CartItem.objects.get(

        item=item, cart=cart

    )

    if cart_item.quantity < cart_item.item.stock:

        cart_item.quantity += 1

    cart_item.save()

except CartItem.DoesNotExist:

    cart_item = CartItem.objects.create(

        item=item,

        quantity=1,

        cart=cart

    )

    cart_item.save()

return redirect('cart_detail')

thanks for the help
