How to access the key attributes of a model

[Alberto Sanmartin]

This is mi code:

models.py:

@autoconnect

class Category(models.Model):

    name = models.CharField(max_length=100)

    slug = models.CharField(max_length=100, blank=True)

    description = models.CharField(max_length=200)

    creation_date = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)

    def __unicode__(self):

        return self.name

    def pre_save(self):

        """metodo de la clase Category para calcular el slug de una categoria"""

        self.slug = self.name.replace(" ", "_").lower()

        print(self.slug)

@autoconnect

class Post(models.Model):

    Status = ((1, "Publicado"), (2, "Borrador"), (3, "Eliminado"))

    status = models.IntegerField(choices=Status, default=2, blank=False)

    title = models.CharField(max_length=100, blank=False)

    slug = models.CharField(max_length=100, default=' ', blank=True)

    description = models.CharField(max_length=200, blank=False)

    content = models.TextField(default=" ", blank=False)

    category = models.ForeignKey(Category, default=1, blank=False)

    creation_date = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)

    image = models.ImageField(upload_to="photos", default='/image.jpg', blank=False)

    author = models.ForeignKey(User, default=1)

views.py:

def blog(request):

    posts = models.Post.objects.filter(status=1).order_by("-creation_date")

    print(posts)

    categories = models.Category.objects.order_by("name")

    context = {

        "posts":posts,

        "categories":categories

    }

    return render(request, "blog.html", context)

urls.py:

url(r'^blog/categorias/(?P<slug>\w+)/$', views.blog_category_posts, name='blog_category_posts'),

blog.html:

{% for post in posts %}

    <a href="{% url 'detail_post' slug=post.slug %}">{{ post.title }}</a>

    <p>{{ post.description }}</p>

    <p><a href="{% url 'blog_category_posts' slug=post.category.slug %}">{{ post.category.name }}</a></p>

    <p><a href="{% url 'blog_author_posts' username=post.author.username %}">{{ post.author.username }}</a></p>

    <p>{{ post.creation_date }}</p>

{% endfor %}

When I click on the link of the category in the blog.html, I want to be able to pass the attribute slug to url, but it does not work.

Please help

Thanks in advance.

That seems right. Do you get an error, or just no data in the url?

You should also look into the slugify helper, https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/utils/#django.utils.text.slugify

Hi Alberto,

I'm guessing `def blog(request):` is actually `blog_category_posts`, right? Because you have `<slug>` on your URL, our view will receive it as another parameter, after request. So it should be `def blog_category_posts(requests, slug):` and then you can get the slug, filter the posts and return them to the template.
