thanks in Advance,
i am making simple database for company i work in,
gateway for employees insert items and categories,
1- for categories i did for it a parent self and here i need to make it select in the form when i add item,
i am using ModelForm. What i think is to make the field in model form as a select field, is it possible.
2- for slug in item: i made it automatically created from name and sku and i did that in Admin.py page,
but when i add it in ModelForm i add as Text, is there any way i can make it automatically use logic i need name and sku.
this is some code:
Models.py
from django.db import models
from django.urls import reverse
def uploaded_item_image(self, filename):
return f'Items-Data/{self.sku}/{self.sku}.png'
class Category(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(verbose_name='Name', max_length=255)
parent = models.ForeignKey('self', blank=True, null=True, on_delete=models.SET_NULL)
description = models.TextField(verbose_name='Description', blank=True, null=True)
def __str__(self):
return self.name
class Meta:
verbose_name_plural = 'Categories'
class Item(models.Model):
def cad_upload(self, filename):
return f'Items-Data/{self.sku}/{self.sku}-cad.cad'
def film_upload(self, filename):
return f'Items-Data/{self.sku}/{self.sku}-film.docx'
def patron_upload(self, filename):
return f'Items-Data/{self.sku}/{self.sku}-patron.excel'
category = models.ForeignKey(Category, blank=True, null=True, on_delete=models.SET_NULL)
name = models.CharField(verbose_name='Name', max_length=255)
sku = models.CharField(verbose_name='Code', max_length=255)
slug = models.SlugField(verbose_name='Slug', unique=True)
description = models.TextField(verbose_name='Description')
barcode = models.CharField(verbose_name='Barcode', max_length=255)
weight = models.CharField(verbose_name='Weight', max_length=255)
height = models.CharField(verbose_name='Height', max_length=255)
length = models.CharField(verbose_name='Length', max_length=255)
width = models.CharField(verbose_name='Width', max_length=255)
age = models.IntegerField(verbose_name='Age')
image = models.ImageField(verbose_name='Image', upload_to=uploaded_item_image)
cad_file = models.FileField(verbose_name='Cad File', upload_to=cad_upload)
film = models.FileField(verbose_name='film', upload_to=film_upload)
patron = models.FileField(verbose_name='patron', upload_to=patron_upload)
def item_dimension(self):
dimension = f'{self.length} x {self.width} x {self.height} cm'
return dimension
def __str__(self):
return f'{self.name} - {self.sku}'
