How to assign ForeignKey MySQL item in views.py? - mysql

Question

When I save my NoteForm, I want to save my form and the "note" field, then I want to create a "tag" for the Note in the NoteTagModel.
At the moment, I create a new tag but it is not assigned to the note. I know that the following code must be wrong:
notetag.id = new_note_parse.id
If I change to:
notetag.note = new_note_parse.id
I receive the following error:
"NoteTagModel.note" must be a "NoteModel" instance.
The below is my views.py:
def notes(request):
note_form = NoteForm
notetag = NoteTagModel()
note_form=NoteForm(request.POST)
if note_form.is_valid():
new_note = note_form.save(commit=False)
new_note_parse = new_note
new_note.save()
notetag.id = new_note_parse.id
notetag.tag = "Test"
notetag.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('notes:notes'))
context = {
'note_form' : note_form,
'notes' : NoteModel.objects.all(),
'notes_tag' : NoteTagModel.objects.all(),
}
return render(request, "notes/notes.html", context)
My models.py is:
class NoteModel(models.Model):
note = models.CharField(
max_length = 5000
)
def __str__(self):
return f"{self.note}"
class NoteTagModel(models.Model):
note = models.ForeignKey(
NoteModel,
on_delete=models.CASCADE,
related_name="notes",
blank= False,
null = True,
)
tag = models.CharField(
max_length = 5000
)
def __str__(self):
return f"Note: {self.note} | Tag: {self.tag}"
I have the following as my forms.py:
class NoteForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = NoteModel
fields = [
'note',
]

Change views.py to reflect the below:
note = NoteModel.objects.get(id=new_note_parse.id)
notetag.note = note
