Going throught the Django tutorial help pls

[Michael Carey]

I have:

Enter code here...from django.shortcuts import render
from django.template import RequestContext, loader
from django.http import HttpResponse

from polls.models import Poll

def index(request):
    latest_poll_list = Poll.objects.get(name="Test") #Poll.objects.all().order_by('-pub_date')[:5]    context = {'latest_poll_list': latest_poll_list}
    return render(request, 'polls/index.html', context)

def detail(request, poll_id):
    try:
        poll = Poll.objects.get(pk=poll_id)
    except Poll.DoesNotExist:
        raise Http404
    return render(request, 'polls/detail.html', {'poll': poll})

def results(request, poll_id):
    return HttpResponse("You're looking at the results of poll %s." % poll_id)

def vote(request, poll_id):
    return HttpResponse("You're voting on poll %s." % poll_id)

It currently shows a list of the polls, what I am trying to work out is how to print out the integer value that is associated with that pole.

latest_poll_list = Poll.objects.get(name="Test")


Thankyou

Is poll.id what you want? In the template it would be {{ poll.id }}

Or: Poll.objects.get(name="Test").id

[Michael Carey]

So I tried:

def index(request):
    latest_poll_list = Poll.objects.get(name="Test").id #Poll.objects.all().order_by('-pub_date')[:5]  
    context = {'latest_poll_list': latest_poll_list}

    return render(request, 'polls/index.html', context)

 and get a error, sorry I am really new to both python and SQLite

I do have a poll "Test"

Thank you

Maybe try:

Poll.objects.get(question="Test")

[Babatunde Akinyanmi]

Perhaps you should show your model definition and the complete traceback.

A wild guess though, did you syncdb?
