I know that there is a lot of answers on this question, but i am new in Django and i dont know how to implement these solutions. First what i want to do. This is my models:<
well , i coded a whole project just for you , hope this could help :) :
in this project i we have countries which have many cities
as shown in pictures, each time you select a country , only related cities shown in next combo box :)
ok , no let's see the code
(full project source code is on my github : https://github.com/nodet07/Django-Related-DropDowns)
models.py :
just 2 simple models , a country which can have many cities !
from django.db import models
class City(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
country = models.ForeignKey("Country")
def __unicode__(self):
return u'%s' % (self.name)
class Country(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
def __unicode__(self):
return u'%s' % (self.name)
views.py:
from django.shortcuts import render
from map.models import *
from django.utils import simplejson
from django.http import HttpResponse
def index(request):
countries = Country.objects.all()
print countries
return render(request, 'index.html', {'countries': countries})
def getdetails(request):
#country_name = request.POST['country_name']
country_name = request.GET['cnt']
print "ajax country_name ", country_name
result_set = []
all_cities = []
answer = str(country_name[1:-1])
selected_country = Country.objects.get(name=answer)
print "selected country name ", selected_country
all_cities = selected_country.city_set.all()
for city in all_cities:
print "city name", city.name
result_set.append({'name': city.name})
return HttpResponse(simplejson.dumps(result_set), mimetype='application/json', content_type='application/json')
index.html :
