I am creating a task to do web app using django 3, I have two models one is UserCustom and other is UserTask in which each corresponding active user can add task. I am getting the entry details through a "model form". For adding the task user need to be login. But mentioning UserCustom as foriegn key in UserTask model, creates a combo (dropdown) box on the "AddTask.html" page with all the registered users.
How can i autimatically add current active user as foreign key in UserTask model ?
Below are the codes
models.py
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.conf import settings
# Create your models here.
class UserCustom(models.Model):
user=models.OneToOneField(User,on_delete=models.CASCADE)
profile_pic=models.ImageField(upload_to='profile_pics',blank=True)
def __str__(self):
return self.user.username #user os object defined above
class UserTask(models.Model):
author = models.ForeignKey(UserCustom,on_delete=models.CASCADE)
label=models.CharField(max_length=264)
date=models.DateField()
status=models.BooleanField(default=False)
def __str__(self):
return str(self.label)
forms.py
from django import forms
from django.forms.fields import DateField
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from taskApp.models import UserCustom,UserTask
from django.contrib.admin.widgets import AdminDateWidget
class UserForm(forms.ModelForm):
password=forms.CharField(widget=forms.PasswordInput())
class Meta():
model=User
fields=('username','email','password')
class UserCustomForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta():
model=UserCustom
fields=('profile_pic',)
class UserTaskForm(forms.ModelForm):
date=DateField(widget=forms.DateInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'YYYY-MM-DD', 'required': 'required'}))
class Meta():
model=UserTask
fields=('author','label','status','date')
