How to get multiple values from a template and update multiple rows in a table? Django

Question

I\'m fairly new to Django and Python. I have a inventory management website. I am trying to update multiple values in a database. User should be able to input updated stock

Answer 1

Do

<input type="number" value="{{item.instock}}" name="item_{{item.id}}">

Then

if request.method == 'POST':
    data = request.POST.dict()
    data.pop('csrfmiddlewaretoken', None)
    for i in data.items():
        obj = Item.objects.get(id=i[0].split("_")[1])
        if not str(obj.instock) == str(i[1]): #here check int or char datatype since 1 not equal "1"
            obj.instock = i[1]
            obj.save()
