Currently creating a Django site for some work I'm doing. Here are the relevant code blocks:
portal/device_categories/models.py
from django.db import models
# Create your models here.
class Type(models.Model):
device_category = models.CharField(max_length=20)
def __str__(self):
return self.device_category
class Device(models.Model):
category = models.ForeignKey(Type, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
tms_code = models.CharField(max_length=5)
device_name = models.CharField(max_length=30)
device_count = models.CharField(max_length=3)
def __str__(self):
return "Device:" + self.device_name
portal/device_categories/urls.py
from django.conf.urls import url
from . import views
urlpatterns = [
url(r'^$', views.index, name='index'),
url(r'^(?P<device_type>[A-Za-z]+)/$', views.deviceList, name='deviceList'),
]
portal/device_categories/views.py
from django.shortcuts import render
from django.http import HttpResponse
from .models import Type, Device
from django.template import loader
# Create your views here.
def index(request):
return HttpResponse("This is the Device Categories Page")
def deviceList(request, device_type):
all_devices = Device.objects.get(category__device_category=device_type)
template = loader.get_template('device_categories/index.html')
context = {
'all_devices': all_devices,
}
return render(request, template, context)
I have created numerous Device Objects using the:
python manage.py shell
methodology, some example categories are: fans, switches, modules. All the categories have also been set up as their own Type Class. Now I have 5 objects that I assigned a category of fans, but when I try to go to url:
127.0.0.1:8000/device_categories/fans/
I am getting error:

I have verified that the objects exist when I go into the shell so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I have found similar questions posted on here but I have tried those solutions and they unfortunately didn't apply. Thank you for your help
