I created model, view and template for display list of items in template but after I run the website It didn't anything. Please help me to solve this.
model.py
class waterLevel(models.Model):
height = models.CharField(max_length=250)
date = DateTimeField(max_length=250)
def __str__(self):
# #
return self.height + '-' + self.date
view.py
def compare(request):
all_waterLevels = waterLevel.objects.all()
context = {'all_waterLevels': all_waterLevels}
return render(request, 'Home/compare.html', context)
compare.html
{% if all_waterLevels %}
<ul>
{% for height in all_waterLevels %}
<li> {{ waterLevel.height }}</li>
<li> {{ waterLevel.date }}</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
{% else %}
<h3>no any details</h3>
{% endif %}
Try this :
{% if all_waterLevels %}
<ul>
{% for waterLevel in all_waterLevels %}
<li> {{ waterLevel.height }}</li>
<li> {{ waterLevel.date }}</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
{% else %}
<h3>no any details</h3>
{% endif %}
{% set foo = 200 %}
{% for item in items %}
{% set foo = 100 %}
{{ foo }}
{% endfor %}
{{foo}}
Output
100
200
foo outside of my Loop should be 100
how can i solve this issue?
Try also dictionary-based approach. It seems to be less ugly.
{% set vars = {'foo': False} %}
{% for item in items %} {% if vars.update({'foo': True}) %} {% endif %}
{% if vars.foo %} Ok(1)! {% endif %} {% endfor %}
{% if vars.foo %} Ok(2)! {% endif %}
This also renders:
Ok(1)!
Ok(2)!
I have a simple contacts application where I want to paginate the contact list based on first name alphabet.
Here is my views.py
def contacts(request):
contact_list = Contact.objects.filter(user=request.user).order_by('first_name')
pages = [contact_list.filter(first_name__istartswith=i) for i in "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"]
return render(request, 'contact/contact.html', {'contact_list': contact_list, 'pages': pages})
Here is my template
{% for alphabet in pages %}
{% if alphabet %}
<p>{{ alphabet }}</p>
{% for contact in contact_list %}
{% if contact in pages %}
<ul>
<li>{{ contact.first_name }}</li>
</ul>
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
The output from this is something like
[<Contact: Steve>, <Contact: Su>]
Steve
Su
[<Contact: Ted>]
Ted
[<Contact: Zedd>]
Zedd
The {{ alphabet }} prints a list. What should I write to print the alphabet instead?
Capture the alphabet in the context variable:
pages = [{"letter": i, "contacts": contact_list.filter(first_name__istartswith=i) }
for i in "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"]
return render(request, 'contact/contact.html', {'pages': pages}) # why pass contact_list?
Your template should be simplified to:
{% for alphabet in pages %}
{% if alphabet.contacts %}
<p>{{ alphabet.letter }}</p>
{% for contact in alphabet.contacts %}
<ul>
<li>{{ contact.first_name }}</li>
</ul>
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
I have this model:
class Event_Category(models.Model):
event=models.ForeignKey(Event,related_name='event_category')
category=models.ForeignKey(Category,related_name='events')
user=models.ForeignKey(User)
in the view:
magazie_cats=Event_Category.objects.filter(event=instance).order_by('category').distinct()
return render_to_response('CompanyHub/Company/index.html', {'magazie_cats':magazie_cats},context_instance=RequestContext(request))
in the template:
{% regroup magazie_cats by category as service_list %}
I want to divide this categorized list into 3 parts and iterate over it. I tried to access each category by variable indexes:
{% for i in range(0,3) %}
{% for item in service_list.i.list %}
{{item.event.title}}
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
{% for i in range(3,6) %}
{% for item in service_list.i.list %}
{{item.event.title}}
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
{% for i in range(6,9) %}
{% for item in service_list.i.list %}
{{item.event.title}}
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
NOTE: the range for each loop is calculated by some custom filters based on service_list length . I didn't include the complete code to avoid complexity.
The problem is that the list variable index doesn't work and I don't know what to do.
You want to use the slice filter:
{% regroup magazie_cats by category as service_list %}
{% for cat in service_list|slice:":3" %}
{% for item in cat.list %}
{{item.event.title}}
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
{% for cat in service_list|slice:"3:6" %}
{% for item in cat.list %}
{{item.event.title}}
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
{% for cat in service_list|slice:"6:9" %}
{% for item in cat.list %}
{{item.event.title}}
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
I would like to do something like:
variable p is from test.py which is a list ['a','b','c','d']
{% for i in p %}
{{variable++}}
{{variable}}
result output is:
1 2 3 4
You could use loop.index:
{% for i in p %}
{{ loop.index }}
{% endfor %}
Check the template designer documentation.
In more recent versions, due to scoping rules, the following would not work:
{% set count = 1 %}
{% for i in p %}
{{ count }}
{% set count = count + 1 %}
{% endfor %}
After 2.10, to solve the scope problem, you can do something like this:
{% set count = namespace(value=0) %}
{% for i in p %}
{{ count.value }}
{% set count.value = count.value + 1 %}
{% endfor %}
As Jeroen says there are scoping issues: if you set 'count' outside the loop, you can't modify it inside the loop.
You can defeat this behavior by using an object rather than a scalar for 'count':
{% set count = [1] %}
You can now manipulate count inside a forloop or even an %include%. Here's how I increment count (yes, it's kludgy but oh well):
{% if count.append(count.pop() + 1) %}{% endif %} {# increment count by 1 #}
Or...
{% set count = [] %}
{% for something-that-loops %}
{% set __ = count.append(1) %}
<div> Lorem ipsum meepzip dolor...
{{ count|length }}
</div>
{% endfor %}
(From comments by #eyettea and #PYB)
Here's my solution:
Put all the counters in a dictionary:
{% set counter = {
'counter1': 0,
'counter2': 0,
'etc': 0,
} %}
Define a macro to increment them easily:
{% macro increment(dct, key, inc=1)%}
{% if dct.update({key: dct[key] + inc}) %} {% endif %}
{% endmacro %}
Now, whenever you want to increment the 'counter1' counter, just do:
{{ increment(counter, 'counter1') }}
if anyone want to add a value inside loop then you can use this its working 100%
{% set ftotal= {'total': 0} %}
{%- for pe in payment_entry -%}
{% if ftotal.update({'total': ftotal.total + 5}) %}{% endif %}
{%- endfor -%}
{{ftotal.total}}
output = 5
Came searching for Django's way of doing this and found this post. Maybe someone else need the django solution who come here.
{% for item in item_list %}
{{ forloop.counter }} {# starting index 1 #}
{{ forloop.counter0 }} {# starting index 0 #}
{# do your stuff #}
{% endfor %}

I was struggle with this behavior too. I wanted to change div class in jinja based on counter. I was surprised that pythonic way did not work. Following code was reseting my counter on each iteration, so I had only red class.
{% if sloupec3: %}
{% set counter = 1 %}
{% for row in sloupec3: %}
{% if counter == 3 %}
{% set counter = 1 %}
{% endif %}
{% if counter == 1: %}
<div class="red"> some red div </div>
{% endif %}
{% if counter == 2: %}
<div class="gray"> some gray div </div>
{% endif %}
{% set counter = counter + 1 %}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
I used loop.index like this and it works:
{% if sloupec3: %}
{% for row in sloupec3: %}
{% if loop.index % 2 == 1: %}
<div class="red"> some red div </div>
{% endif %}
{% if loop.index % 2 == 0: %}
<div class="gray"> some gray div </div>
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
Just to shed more light into this problem.
Jinja2 variables behaves differently from that of conventional scripting languages, you can't modify the variable in a for loop.Hence to bypass this behaviour you can use a dictionary, since you can change the value of the dictionary.
**{% set margin={"margin_value":0} %}**
{% for lang in language %}
<ul>
<li style="margin-right: {{ margin.margin_value}}px">{{ lang }}</li>
</ul>
**{% if margin.update({"margin_value":margin.margin_value + 2}) %}
{% endif %}**
{% endfor %}
In the above code the value of the dictionary is being modified.
