I try to track the user who created the object using CreateView, and I do it exactly the same as in the documentation ( https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/class-based-views/generic-editing/ , Models and request.user), except that I do not use login_required () decorator, but LoginRequiredMixin instead of django-braces.
My model:
class Contact(models.Model):
owner = models.ForeignKey(User, editable=False)
first_name = models.CharField(max_length=255,)
last_name = models.CharField(max_length=255,)
email = models.EmailField()
My opinion:
class CreateContactView(LoginRequiredMixin, ContactOwnerMixin, CreateWithInlinesView):
model = models.Contact
template_name = 'contacts/edit_contact.html'
form_class = forms.ContactForm
inlines = [forms.ContactAddressFormSet]
def form_valid(self, form):
form.instance.owner = self.request.user
return super(CreateContactView, self).form_valid(form)
When I try to create a new object, I get an error message:
IntegrityError at /new
null value in column "owner_id" violates not-null constraint
DETAIL: Failing row contains (3, null, John, Smith, john.smith@gmail.com).
Why is this error occurring? The only thing I'm trying to do is that the owner is automatically added to the object when it is created.
