In my views.py, I'm building a list of two-tuples, where the second item in the tuple is another list, like this:
[ Product_Type_1, [ product_1, product_2 ],
Product_Type_2, [ product_3, product_4 ]]
In plain old Python, I could iteration the list like this:
for product_type, products in list:
print product_type
for product in products:
print product
I can't seem to do the same thing in my Django template:
{% for product_type, products in product_list %}
print product_type
{% for product in products %}
print product
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
I get this error from Django:
Caught an exception while rendering: zip argument #2 must support iteration
Of course, there is some HTML markup in the template, not print statements. Is tuple unpacking not supported in the Django template language? Or am I going about this the wrong way? All I am trying to do is display a simple hierarchy of objects - there are several product types, each with several products (in models.py, Product has a foreign key to Product_type, a simple one-to-many relationship).
Obviously, I am quite new to Django, so any input would be appreciated.
