HOW TO Configure url and view for filter between two dates

[Efe]

Hello,  don't know to how configure views.py and urls.py in myapp. for filter a list between dates from an input date in a template.

This is my models.py:

class Paciente(models.Model):
   tipo_doc = models.ForeignKey(Tipo_doc)
   num_doc = models.CharField(max_length=20, primary_key=True)
   ...

class Consulta (models.Model):
   numero = models.ForeignKey(Paciente)
   fecha = models.DateField()
   ...      

This is my file "lista.html" in templates:

<h5>
  Fecha desde: <input class="inputDate" id="fechadesde" value={{ fecha_d }} />
  Fecha hasta: <input class="inputDate" id="fechahasta" value={{ fecha_h }} />
  <a href="/clinica/filtrar_consulta" class="button">Filtrar</a>
</h5>

<ul class="actions">
 ...             

I need to filter the list by paciente and between 2 dates (fecha_d, fecha_h), but I don't know how to pass parameters in url. Thank You

Hello,

In urls.py you define the url that serves the page you're building, something like this would work:

from django.conf.urls import patterns, url

from <myapp> import views

urlpatterns = patterns('<myapp>.views',
    url(r'^$',views.index, name="index"),
    url(r'^listarConsultas/$', views.listarConsultas, name="listarConsultas"),
)

in views.py you create that "views.listarConsultas" declared in the last line of urls.py:

def listarConsultas(request):
    if request.method == "POST":
        fecha_desde = request.POST["fechadesde"]
        fecha_hasta = request.POST["fechahasta"]
        ...

In order to let the user choose the paciente, I recommend you to use a ModelForm

good luck,
Hector.

I'm sorry, I missleaded you,

what you really want to use is a ModelChoiceField in a custom form. So you can create a form with the following code:

from django import forms

class pacienteConsultasForm(forms.Form):
 fecha_desde = forms.DateField()
 fecha_hasta = forms.DateField()
 paciente = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=Paciente.objects.all())

then you use that pacienteConsultasForm class in your views.py and in your template.
