Django friendship in messages compose
I am using django-friends and django-messages.
I have modified my custom compose form to pull the following information, myfriends and also display their fullnames instead of just usernames.
One problem I have is that I cannot seem to access myself as a signed in user, to complete the query, I have to hard code it.
class MyComposeForm(forms.Form):
"""
A simple default form for private messages.
"""
recipient开发者_如何学运维 = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=Friendship.objects.all(), label=_(u"Recipient"))
#recipient = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=User.objects.all(), label=_(u"Recipient"))
subject = forms.CharField(label=_(u"Subject"))
body = forms.CharField(label=_(u"Body"),
widget=forms.Textarea(attrs={'rows': '2', 'cols':'55'}))
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
recipient_filter = kwargs.pop('recipient_filter', None)
super(MyComposeForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
### underneath here I have to hardcode with my ID to pull the info.
friends = Friendship.objects.filter(from_user=1)
self.fields['recipient'].choices = [(friend.to_user.pk, friend.to_user.get_full_name()) for friend in friends]
if recipient_filter is not None:
self.fields['recipient']._recipient_filter = recipient_filter
How do I access my user instance?
I have tried adding request
to __init__
and using request.user
but this does not seem to work.
Any ideas?
You can pass request in your form like:
form = MyComposeForm(request.POST,request)
in your views.py file, where the form has been instantiated. You can then access the request object as:
requestObj = kwargs.pop('request', None)
your code will look like:
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
recipient_filter = kwargs.pop('recipient_filter', None)
requestObj = kwargs.pop('request', None)
super(MyComposeForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
