How can you do a for loop with a database?

[Peter T]

Example:

context = (database model)

def index(request):

     render(index.html, context)

HTML Template:

{% for i in context %}

     <h1>{ database.text }</h1>

[Andréas Kühne]

The context needs to be a dictionary.

Something like this would work:

context = {

    ‘items’: Model.objects.all()

}

Then in the template:

{% for item in items %}

  <h1>{{ item.text }}</h1>

{% endfor %}

Here ‘text’ is the property on the database model you want to display.

Regards,

Andréas

is (items) the model name?

[Shahprogrammer]

No it is a dictionary representation of your data
