Hello,
I have to show entries by date in a django app and i'm a bit blocked : Here's an example of my models:
class Event(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
theme = models.ForeignKey(Theme)
...
class Date(models.Model):
event = models.ForeignKey(Event)
start = models.DateField()
end = models.DateField()
class Meta:
ordering = ['start', 'end']
unique_together = ['event', 'start']
I got a view that take all the events in the database : Event.objects.all()
and then in a template i show the list of events with their theme and other stuffs like the date start. I would like to show in the list the first "future" date, that's easy with a custom method on the event model:
def get_first_future_date(self):
today = datetime.datetime.now()
dates = self.date_set.filter(end__gte=today)
if dates:
return dates[0]
That method the first future date or the oldest date that isn't finished.
Here's the problem : I would like to show that field in my template and be able to sort it with django-sorting.
Django-sorting uses {% anchor arg %} to do it but i don't know how to manage that field in it... How would you do that???
Thanks by advance for any answer.
