How do you display the information from a database table in a table format on a webpage? Is there a simple way to do this in django or does it require a more complicated app
If you want to table do following steps:-
views.py:
def view_info(request):
objs=Model_name.objects.all()
............
return render(request,'template_name',{'objs':obj})
.html page
{% for item in objs %}
<tr>
<td>{{ item.field1 }}</td>
<td>{{ item.field2 }}</td>
<td>{{ item.field3 }}</td>
<td>{{ item.field4 }}</td>
</tr>
{% endfor %}
The easiest way is to use a for loop template tag.
Given the view:
def MyView(request):
...
query_results = YourModel.objects.all()
...
#return a response to your template and add query_results to the context
You can add a snippet like this your template...
<table>
<tr>
<th>Field 1</th>
...
<th>Field N</th>
</tr>
{% for item in query_results %}
<tr>
<td>{{ item.field1 }}</td>
...
<td>{{ item.fieldN }}</td>
</tr>
{% endfor %}
</table>
This is all covered in Part 3 of the Django tutorial. And here's Part 1 if you need to start there.
$ pip install django-tables2
settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS , 'django_tables2'
TEMPLATES.OPTIONS.context-processors , 'django.template.context_processors.request'
models.py
class hotel(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=20)
views.py
from django.shortcuts import render
def people(request):
istekler = hotel.objects.all()
return render(request, 'list.html', locals())
list.html
{# yonetim/templates/list.html #}
{% load render_table from django_tables2 %}
{% load static %}
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static
'ticket/static/css/screen.css' %}" />
</head>
<body>
{% render_table istekler %}
</body>
</html>
