I want to display objects based on the datetime information they have. My model looks like this:
models.py
class Person(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
class Registration(models.Model):
name = models.ForeignKey(Person)
reg_id = models.IntegerField()
reg_date = models.DateTimeField(db_index=True)
reg_type = models.CharField(max_length=50)
description = models.CharField(max_length-200)
urls.py
from app.models import Registration
from dajngo.views.generic.date_based import archive_day
queryset = registration.objects.all()
urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^$', 'ui.views.index'),
url(r'^registrations/(?P<person_name>)\w+)/(?P<year>\d{4})/(?P<month>\d{2})/(?P<day>\d{2})/$', archive_day, {'year': year, 'month': month, 'day': day, 'queryset': queryset, 'date_field': reg_date})
)
)
My Intent:
I want to display all the registrations in a person's name, in a particular day. Yes, one person can have more than one registration.
I know I am wrong:
I read the docs, but it isn't much handy for a newbie like me. And while I figured out that their are these required parameters and some optional which need to be sent as a key: value pair. But what I don't seem to understand is that how can I reference the year, month, day, reg_time into the key: value pair of the dictionary. I mean to say, that obviously it wont recognize what year is right? So from where can I get the reference? Do I sound confused? I really am. Some help in clearing it will be much appreciated.
Update:
There's one thing I realize. The date is really going to be wrapped inside the request. Because the user is going to request that URL right? So probably I need to extract the values of year month and day from the request body.So how can this be done?
