this is my views.py
#delete
def delete(request, id):
i = ApplyForm.objects.get(id = id)
i.delete()
return redirect('account:dboard')
#edit
def edit(request, id):
i = ApplyForm.objects.get(id = id)
context = {
'i' : i
}
return render(request, 'account/edit.html', context)
#update
def update(request, id):
i = ApplyForm.objects.get(id = id)
i.full_name = request.POST['full_name']
i.email = request.POST['email']
i.noticeperiod = request.POST['noticeperiod']
i.preferredlocation = request.POST['preferredlocation']
i.expectedlocation = request.POST['expectedlocation']
i.currentctc = request.POST['currentctc']
i.expectedctc= request.POST['expectedctc']
i.recruiter_name = request.POST['recruiter_name']
i.status = request.POST['status']
i.gender = request.POST['gender']
i.cv = request.FILES['cv']
i.save()
return redirect('account:dboard')
this is my models.py
class ApplyForm(models.Model):
full_name = models.CharField(max_length=300)
email = models.EmailField(max_length=300)
noticeperiod = models.CharField(max_length = 300)
preferredlocation = models.CharField(max_length=300)
expectedlocation = models.CharField(max_length=300)
currentctc = models.CharField(max_length=300)
expectedctc = models.CharField(max_length=300)
recruiter_name = models.CharField(max_length = 300, null=True)
status = models.CharField(max_length = 300, null=True, choices= CATEGORY_CHOICES )
gender = models.CharField(max_length=10, choices=GENDER_CHOICES)
cv = models.FileField(upload_to='')
I want two solutions here
1.I cant retrieve the values of Upload cv, Gender , Status by doing value={{ i.cv}}, value={{ i.status}}, value={{ i.gender}} while the text fields are working fine I am getting the value that means I can display the value of full name with this value={{ i.full_name}} in my form but not the choice and file fields
- When I am uploading a file through a form and submitting the file the file is stored in media folder file system but the name changes as soon as I upload for example if my original file name is simple2.pdf it changes to some random name as sample2_fkuTqar.pdf I don't know what's the reason behind this attached an image for this
