Model not user specific

manpreet Best Answer 3 years ago

I have a model called Post. The data in Post is displayed to every user while I want this to be user specific.

I'm new to Django. This app is created following the Django for Girls tutorial. I later added support for user registration.

models.py:

from django.conf import settings
from django.db import models
from django.utils import timezone


class Post(models.Model):
    author = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
    title = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    text = models.TextField()
    created_date = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now)
    published_date = models.DateTimeField(blank=True, null=True)

    def publish(self):
        self.published_date = timezone.now()
        self.save()

    def __str__(self):
        return self.title

Example from views.py:

from django.shortcuts import render, get_object_or_404
from django.utils import timezone
from .models import Post
from .forms import PostForm
from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm
from django.shortcuts import redirect
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
from django.contrib.auth import login, authenticate

@login_required
def post_list(request):
    posts = Post.objects.filter(published_date__lte=timezone.now()).order_by('published_date')
    return render(request, 'blog/post_list.html', {'posts': posts})

Example from the template (post_list.html):

    {% for post in posts %}
        <div class="post">
            <div class
                                                

                                                                                                        
                                                    
                                                
                                                

                                                    

                                                        
                                                            0
                                                            views 

                                                            0
                                                                likes 
                                                            
                                                            

                                                            0
                                                            shares
