attribute error in django. django.db.models has no attribute - django

Question

I am trying to write the code so that a user in the system can view complaint registered by others on this page but not their own complaints. This is the code, but I don't understand what's wrong:
views.py:
class OtherPeoplesComplaints(TemplateView):
model = Complaint
form_class = ComplaintForm
template_name = 'userComplaints.html'
def get_context_data(self, *args, **kwargs):
context = super().get_context_data(*args, **kwargs)
context["complaints"] = models.Complaint.objects.exclude(
profile__user = self.request.user
)
models.py:
class Complaint(models.Model):
user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete= models.CASCADE, null = True, blank=True)
id = models.AutoField(blank=False, primary_key=True)
reportnumber = models.CharField(max_length=500 ,null = True, blank= False)
eventdate = models.DateField(null=True, blank=False)
event_type = models.CharField(max_length=300, null=True, blank=True)
device_problem = models.CharField(max_length=300, null=True, blank=True)
manufacturer = models.CharField(max_length=300, null=True, blank=True)
product_code = models.CharField(max_length=300, null=True, blank=True)
brand_name = models.CharField(max_length = 300, null=True, blank=True)
exemption = models.CharField(max_length=300, null=True, blank=True)
patient_problem = models.CharField(max_length=500, null=True, blank=True)
event_text = models.TextField(null=True, blank= True)
document = models.FileField(upload_to='static/documents', blank=True, null=True)
def __str__(self):
return self.reportnumber
forms.py:
class DateInput(forms.DateInput):
input_type = 'date'
class ComplaintForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Complaint
fields = '__all__'
widgets = {
'reportnumber': forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Report number'}),
'event_type': forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Event type'}),
'eventdate': DateInput(),
'device_problem': forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Device Problem'}),
'event_text': forms.Textarea(attrs={'style': 'height: 130px;width:760px'}),
'manufacturer': forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Enter Manufacturer Name'}),
'product_code': forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Enter Product Code'}),
'brand_name': forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Enter Brand Name'}),
'exemption': forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Enter Exemption'}),
'patient_problem': forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Enter Patient Problem'}),
}
def clean(self):
cleaned_data = super(ComplaintForm, self).clean()
reportnumber = cleaned_data.get('reportnumber')
event_text = cleaned_data.get('event_text')
if not reportnumber and not event_text:
raise forms.ValidationError('You have to write something!')
return cleaned_data

In this view
class OtherPeoplesComplaints(TemplateView):
model = Complaint
form_class = ComplaintForm
template_name = 'userComplaints.html'
def get_context_data(self, *args, **kwargs):
context = super().get_context_data(*args, **kwargs)
context["complaints"] = models.Complaint.objects.exclude(
profile__user = self.request.user
)
you are using this query :
context["complaints"] = models.Complaint.objects.exclude(profile__user = self.request.user)
change it to :
context["complaints"] = self.model.objects.exclude(user = self.request.user)
Explanation :
Your model is Complaint which you can access using self.model as you have defined the class variable here :
class OtherPeoplesComplaints(TemplateView):
model = Complaint
and
You want to access complaint of other users except your own, so this update in your query :
exclude(user = self.request.user)
