Uploading to a Django DataBase from a template - html

Question

I am trying to create a webpage where you can upload questions to the Questions database. I was wondering is there any easy way to do this in Django? Can I upload it so it will be accessible from the Django admin? Here is what I have.
#Models
class Question(models.Model):
question = models.CharField(max_length=400)
answer = models.CharField(max_length=400)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.question + "?"
class QuestionForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Question
fields = ['question', 'answer']
#Question Template
<div class="container" align="center">
<div class="hero-unit3" align="center">
<h3>
Feel free to post some questions, and a DarKnight representative will answer them for you.
</h3>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="span6">
<h4>
<form action="<!-- NO IDEA WHAT TO DO -->" method="post">
<input type="text" name="question" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
#views.py
class question(generic.ListView):
template_name = 'users/question.html'
context_object_name = 'Question_list'
def get_queryset(self):
return Question.objects.order_by('question')

Answer 1

The easiest way to achieve what you need is to use CreateView.
In views.py:
from django.views.generic.edit import CreateView
from yourapp.models import Question
class QuestionCreate(CreateView):
model = Question
fields = ['question', 'answer']
Create a new template name question_form.html:
<form action="" method="post">{% csrf_token %}
{{ form.as_p }}
<input type="submit" value="Create" />
</form>
Hope it helps!

To make a model available to django admin you have to register the model to admin by
from django.contrib import admin
class Question(models.Model):
...
admin.site.register(Question)
Also for doing this from custom template you can use a model form
The form can be displayed in the template as a table or as a paragraph.
Suppose you render the form to the template as f, use it in template as follows
<form action='..' method='post'>
{{ f.as_t }} //or f.as_p for paragraph
</form>
