[Soumen Khatua]

Hi Folks,

I Extended Profile Model from dajngo inbuilt User model but Now I want call all the details those are associated with Username in Profile model. I got the username but how i cann call it in Profile model.

Ex:

user = models.ForeignKey(User,related_name = 'user_model,..........)

data = Profile.objects.filter(user = username)

But it's not working please help me guys.

Thank You

Hi Soumen,

You could try with 

profiles = Profile.objects.filter(user__username=username)

I would also suggest changing your model definition to something like

class Profile(models.Model):
    user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)

Then you will have exactly one Profile per User and you can also access the Profile from user object with 

user.profile

FYI, related_name defines the name of reverse relation. So in your case it would mean you can access the profile from a user object with

user.user_model

Which is probably not what you want..
