Django save function error - int() argument must be a string or a number, not 'Template'

Viewed 115

I am building a Django Application. when I try to save my model class, I am getting the following error message

int() argument must be a string or a number, not 'Template'

My Model seems to be like this.

class Template(models.Model):
  creation_time = models.DateTimeField(null=True,default=datetime.datetime.now)
  type = models.CharField(max_length=10,blank=True,null=True)

def save(self,info=None):
  super(Template,self).save()
  if info:
    print 'info'

My Function Call from my view seems to be like this one

template = Template(creation_time=datetime.datetime.now(),type='html')
template.save(info='Front Page')

I try your code after some fix it's working with django 2.1

class Template(models.Model):
    creation_time = models.DateTimeField(null=True, default=datetime.datetime.now)
    type = models.CharField(max_length=10, blank=True, null=True)

    def save(self, info=None):
        super(Template, self).save()
        if info:
            print(info)

you forget to add models.CharField

But use "type" as a variable name is a bad idea, this var name is used by python builtins
