How to create an attendance system with django? - django

Question

Currently i am working a project for making a student management system for my college.
I have a User model and a profile model. I also added an attendance model with User as the foreign key. I was stuck in while i started writing the form for entering the attendance.
class Attendance(models.Model):
Student = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
Hour = models.CharField(max_length=1, blank=False)
Subject = models.CharField(max_length=8, blank=False)
Date = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now)
Presence = models.BooleanField(default=False, blank=False)
def __str__(self):
return f'{self.Student}'
This is my template where query set is names of Users that should be the default value. The number of Users, the number of forms should come. With this template i can create only one object, with the values of the last form iterated. When the <form> is inside forloop i get multiple objects with the same values of lastly iterated form.
<form method="POST" action="{% url 'academics' %}" style=" padding: 5%">
{% csrf_token %}
{% for query in queryset %}
<input type="text" name="Student" class="form-control" required id="id_Student" value="{{query}}">
<input type="text" name="Hour" class="form-control" required id="id_Hour">
<input type="text" name="Subject" class="form-control" required id="id_Subject">
<input type="checkbox" name="Presence" required id="id_Presence">
{% endfor %}
<button type="Submit">Submit</button>
</form>
I came to know about formsets, but i don't know how to implement for a complex thing like this. This is my views.py:
def academics(request):
if request.user.is_staff:
form = forms.AttendanceForm()
context = {
'form': form,
'queryset': User.objects.filter(profile__Year='SY',profile__Department='CSE')
}
if request.method == "POST" :
form = forms.AttendanceForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
student = request.POST.get('Student')
hour = request.POST.get('Hour')
subject = request.POST.get('Subject')
boolean = request.POST.get('Presence')
def bool(boolean):
if boolean == 'on':
return 'True'
else:
return 'False'
form = Attendance(Student=student,Hour=hour,Subject=subject,Presence=bool(boolean))
form.save()
return render(request, 'console/academics.html',context)
else:
context = {
'attends': Attendance.objects.all().exclude(Date=timezone.now()),
'todays': Attendance.objects.filter(Date=timezone.now())[:8]
}
return render(request, 'student/academics.html',context)
Can anyone alter the code on how to use formset here. I know am asking an open help instead of asking doubts. Atleast give me hints or correct video tutorial links please!
