Hi brendan,

You have the import class before using, so

from polls.models import Poll

2012/10/25 Brendan Carroll <btk...@gmail.com>
Hi all
I am new to Django and I'm having an issue with some code. I am trying to get through the first tutorial from the Django site.
I have a file called polls/models.py and have created a class that contains the following code
class Poll(models.Model):
     question = models.CharField(max_length=200)
     pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published')
 
The problem occurs when I go into the command prompt and enter the following line
p = Poll(question = "Whats new? ", pub_date=timezone.now())
The error is as follows: name Poll is not defined.
Appreciate any help guidance

Hi again,

Remove 'date published' string from pub_date=models.DateTimeField

from django.db import models

class Poll(models.Model):
    question = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    put_date = models.DateTimeField()

class Choice(models.Model):
    poll = models.ForeignKey(Poll)
    choice = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    votes =models.IntegerField()

After that if you not run yet, syncdb

./manage.py

When you open shell import Poll class

from polls.models import Poll

Hi erm
 
Went back over your comment and realised what you commented.
After python manage.py I gget the python prompt>>> and then typed
from polls.models import Poll, Choice
 
then I typed: Poll.objects.all() and got the array brace [] returned.
then I typed from django.utils import timezone
 
then typed: p = Poll(question="Whats new?", pub_date=timezone.now())
This line will not run and tells me pub_date is an invalid argument.
 
Thanks again in advance

You misspelled 'pub_date' as 'put_date' in your model definition.

Oh that is a serious case of PEBCAC.
Thanks you for your help.
