Question

(sorry for my bad english)

I need to delete an object, but directly from a list of the objects that y have in my template.

I have a work orders, that have spare

Answer 1

In your html template inside for loop use the form tag inside <td> to create delete button as below (css class will work if you are using bootstrap3):

<form action="{% url 'delete_view' pk=part.pk %}" method="POST">
  {% csrf_token %}
  <input class="btn btn-default btn-danger" type="submit" value="Delete"/>
</form>

add urlpattern in urls.py

url(r'^delete-entry/(?P<pk>\d+)/$', views.DeleteView.as_view(), name='delete_view'),

delete view will be like below in views.py

class DeleteView(SuccessMessageMixin, DeleteView):
model = OrderSparePart
success_url = '/'
success_message = "deleted..."

def delete(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
    self.object = self.get_object()
    name = self.object.name
    request.session['name'] = name  # name will be change according to your need
    message = request.session['name'] + ' deleted successfully'
    messages.success(self.request, message)
    return super(DeleteView, self).delete(request, *args, **kwargs)

Note: import necessary imports shown in links or you need not to worry if you are using IDE such as pyCharm it will prompt you which import to make.

here in fa fa-thrash pass the id and the URL as I did it:-

{% if spare_parts %}
              <table class="table">
                <thead>
                  <tr>
                    <th>{% trans "Spare Part" %}</th>
                    <th>{% trans "Price" %}</th>
                    <th>{% trans "Delete" %}</th>
                  </tr>
                </thead>
                <tbody>
                  {% for part in spare_parts %}
                  <tr>
                    <td><i class="fa fa-gear"></i> {{ part.spare_part }}</td>
                    {% if part.price %}
                    <td>$ {{ part.price }}</td>
                    {% else %}
                    <td></td>
                    {% endif %}
                    <td><a href="url:delete_view" part.id><i class="fa fa-trash"></i></a></td>
                  </tr>
                  {% endfor %}
                </tbody>
              </table>
            {% else %}
            <p>NO HAY REPUESTOS ASENTADOS AÚN</p>
            {% endif %}

ur url would be sonething like that:

url(r'^delete/(?P<part_id>[0-9]+)/$', view.function, name='delete_view'),

in ur view:

def function(request,part_id =None):
    object = YourModel.objects.get(id=part_id)
    object.delete()
    return render(request,'ur template where you want to redirect')
