django insert data from 2 tables using a single ModelForm

问题

I want to get data from 2 tables into a form using ModelForm, like this:

fist model:

class Cv(models.Model):
    created_by = models.ForeignKey(User, blank=True)
    first_name = models.CharField(('first name'), max_length=30, blank=True)
    last_name = models.CharField(('last name'), max_length=30, blank=True)
    url = models.URLField(verify_exists=True)
    picture = models.ImageField(help_text=('Upload an image (max %s kilobytes)' %settings.MAX_PHOTO_UPLOAD_SIZE),upload_to='avatar')
    bio = models.CharField(('bio'), max_length=180, blank=True)
    expertise= models.ForeignKey(Expertise, blank=True) 
    date_birth = models.DateField()

second model:

class Expertise(models.Model):
    user = models.ForeignKey(User, blank=True)
    domain = models.CharField(('domain'), max_length=30, blank=True)
    specialisation = models.CharField(('specialization'), max_length=30, blank=True)
    degree = models.CharField(('degree'), max_length=30, blank=True)
    year_last_degree = models.CharField(('year_last_degree'), max_length=30, blank=True)
    lyceum = models.CharField(('lyceum'), max_length=30, blank=True)
    faculty = models.CharField(('faculty'), max_length=30, blank=True)
    references = models.CharField(('references'), max_length=30, blank=True)
    workplace = models.CharField(('workplace'), max_length=30, blank=True)

then i have in forms.py

class CvForm(ModelForm):
   class Meta:
      model = Cv
      fields = ['first_name','last_name','url','picture','bio','date_birth']

class ExpertiseForm(ModelForm):  
   class Meta:
      model = Expertise
      fields = ['domain','specialisation']

The point is that i would want to have the both forms into one single form, and a single submit of course. So, i guess i should use a single ModelForm type class. But it doesn't work (if i put the expertise in the CvForm too ). My form is created automatically from the ModelForm class, that's why i want to make a single class = > a single form.

Help plss, Thanks a lot

回答1:

Since there is a foreign key from Expertise to CV, there are potentially multiple expertises for each cv. So you should enable that by using inline formsets.
