Rendering several forms with helpers Crispy Django - django

Question

I'm having an issue using several forms with django-crispy-forms for Django.
From the documentation, we must set self.helper.form_tag = False in out Form. Documentation here
Then wrapp the forms with a Form tag in the HTML.
class SearchForm(forms.Form):
X = forms.IntegerField(label='X', min_value=0, max_value=10)
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.helper = FormHelper
self.helper.form_method = 'post'
self.helper.form_tag = False
self.helper.layout = Layout(
'X',
Submit('submit', 'Submit', css_class='btn-success')
)
class PredictForm(forms.Form):
Y = forms.IntegerField(label='X', min_value=0, max_value=10)
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.helper = FormHelper
self.helper.form_method = 'post'
self.helper.form_tag = False
self.helper.layout = Layout(
'Y',
Submit('submit', 'Submit', css_class='btn-success')
)
Then in the HTML file I have:
<form action="my_action" class="uniForm" method="post">
<div id="box" class="box">{% crispy formSearch formSearch.helper %}</div>
<div id="box2" class="box2">{% crispy formPrediction formPrediction.helper %}</div>
</form>
In my View.py:
def index(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
formSearch = SearchForm(request.POST)
formPrediction = PredictionForm(request.POST)
# Do stuff
else
formSearch = SearchForm()
formSearch.fields['X'].initial = 5
formPrediction = PredictionForm()
formSearch.fields['Y'].initial = 5
return render(request, 'index.html', {'formSearch': formSearch}, 'formPrediction': formPrediction)
What I get is 2 crispy forms that are displayed on my web page, but the first forms tries to load the fields of the seconds forms. It seems like my second form is duplicated.
I get this error:
KeyError: "Key 'Y' not found in 'SearchForm'. Choices are: X."
It is trying to get data from PredictForm but is aware that only X is in SearchForm. I thought it was I typo somewhere, but I can't find my mistake.

Answer 1

Here is the answer:
A collision war made between the 2 forms, why? Because I did not initiate properly each form functions.
I have changed
self.helper = FormHelper
to
self.helper = FormHelper(self)
