Importing many to many relationship (Django) - django

Question

I want to import data to many to many fields.
My code below imports the data, but only applies one relationship to the model (not two, as I've asked it to do below by importing it twice- where I wrote "cat = ...")
In my example below, I want it to import cat (category) from columns 4 & 11. My code below only applies one category to the model (not both).
How can I get it to apply both fields to the model? Im using python 2.7
import csv
l = list(csv.reader(open('test_data.csv', 'rb')))
Gender_CHOICES = {
'Male': 1,
'Female': 2,
'Unisex': 3,
}
Stock_CHOICES = {
'in stock': 1,
'low stock': 2,
'out of stock': 3,
'discountinued': 4
}
for i in l[1:]:
cat = m.Category.objects.get_or_create(category_name = i[4],[11])[0]
prod = m.Product(
name = i[0],
link = i[1],
description = i[6],
brand = i[7],
colour = i[10],
gender = Gender_CHOICES[i[8]] if i[8] in Gender_CHOICES else 3,
store = m.Store.objects.get_or_create(store_name = i[2])[0]
)
prod.save()
var = m.Variation(
product = prod,
variation = "default"
)
var.save()
img = m.Image(
variation = var,
image = i[5]
)
img.save()
size = m.Size(
variation = var
)
size.save()
price = m.Price(
variation = var,
price = float(i[3])
)
price.save()
stock = m.Stock(
size = size,
stock = Stock_CHOICES[i[9]] if i[9] in Stock_CHOICES else 4
)
stock.save()
prod.category.add(cat)
Sample of CSV:
prod_name,prod_link,store_name,prod_price,category,image_default,prod_description,prod_brand,gender,prod_stock,category1

Answer 1

I believe, the problem is with Object creation. I think the following is what you are looking for :
....
....
for i in l[1:]:
cat_1 = m.Category.objects.get_or_create(category_name = i[4])
cat_2 = m.Category.objects.get_or_create(category_name = i[11])
....
....
prod.category.add(cat_1)
prod.category.add(cat_2)
