showing the model values of specific user django - django

Question

I want to show the data of a user which he has entered. This is my model
class IgaiaContent(models.Model):
CONTENT_CHANNELS = (
('YouTube','Youtube'),
('FaceBook','FaceBook'),
('Flickr','Flickr'),
('Instagram','Instagram'),
)
content_name = models.CharField(max_length=255, primary_key=True)
content_type = models.CharField(max_length=255,null=True)
content_source = models.CharField(max_length=255,null=True, choices=CONTENT_CHANNELS)
content_location = models.CharField(max_length=255,null=True)
content_latitude = models.DecimalField(max_digits=20,decimal_places=2,null=True)
content_longitude = models.DecimalField(max_digits=20,decimal_places=2,null=True)
content_embed_code = models.TextField(null=True)
content_description = models.TextField(null=True)
content_tags_user = models.CharField(max_length=255,null=True)
content_time_uploaded = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
content_time_updated = models.DateField(null=True)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.content_name
return self.content_type
return self.content_source
return self.content_location
return self.content_latitude
return self.content_longitude
return self.embed_code
return self.description
return self.tags_user
return self.time_uploaded
return self.time_updated
tagging.register(IgaiaContent)
My view
def create_page(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = AuthorForm1(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('/thanks/')
else:
form = AuthorForm1()
c = {}
c.update(csrf(request))
return render_to_response('portal/form1.htm',{'form':form},context_instance=RequestContext(request))
My form template:
<form method="post" style="height: 553px; width: 594px">
<div class="style12">
{% csrf_token %}
</br>{{ form.as_p }}
</div>
</form>
thats how i am showing my model values
employee_info1 = {
"queryset" : IgaiaContent.objects.all(),
"template_name" : "portal/emp1.html",
}
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^view5/', list_detail.object_list, employee_info1),
)
emp1.html
{% if object_list %}
<table>
<ul>
{% for item in object_list %}
<li>{{item.content_name}}</li>
<li>{{item.content_type}}</li>
<li>{{item.content_source}}</li>
<li>{{item.content_location}}</li>
<li>{{item.content_latitude}}</li>
<li>{{item.content_longitude}}</li>
<li>{{item.content_embed_code}}</li>
<li>{{item.content_description}}</li>
<li>{{item.content_tags_user}}</li>
<li>{{item.content_time_uploaded}}</li>
<li>{{item.content_time_updated}}</li></ul>
{% empty %}
<td colspan="11">No items.</td>
{% endfor %}
</table>
{% endif %}
It is not displaying specific user value means it is displaying me everything.
can anyone tell me how to show specific user values/data?

You need to update your model so that it contains a field to store the user -
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
class IgaiaContent(models.Model):
#...
user = models.ForeignKey(User)
Then you need to create a ModelForm as described here.
class IgaiaContentForm(forms.ModelForm):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
self.request = kwargs.pop('request', None)
return super(MyModelForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
kwargs['commit']=False
obj = super(MyModelForm, self).save(*args, **kwargs)
if self.request:
obj.user = self.request.user
obj.save()
class Meta:
model = IgaiaContent
Now update your view so that that you use your new ModelForm
def create_page(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = IgaiaContentForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('/thanks/')
else:
form = IgaiaContentForm()
#...
Now in your object_list view you do something like -
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
def object_list(request):
#....
object_list = IgaiaContent.objects.filter(user=request.user)
return render_to_response('object_list_template.html', {'object_list': object_list})
