I keep getting 'WSGIRequest' object has no attribute 'Get' on django

Question

I'm trying to build a little "boards" app for practicing purposes. I'm currently stuck on a page, where a error occurs if I try to load a paginator template.

The error traceback looks like the following:

AttributeError at /board/2/
'WSGIRequest' object has no attribute 'Get'
Request Method: GET

    article_list = board.article_set.order_by("-written_date")
    paginator = Paginator(article_list, 5)
    page = request.Get.get("page")           <--error here, apparently.

    try:
        articles = paginator.page(page)    
    except PageNotAnInteger:
        articles = paginator.page(1)    
    except EmptyPage:
        articles = paginator.page(paginator.num_pages)

    context = {
        "board" : board,
        "articles" : articles,
        "pages" : paginator.page_range
    }

    return render(request, "board.html", context)

Thanks.

PS: tab key is not working on stackoverflow, so I had to indent with spaces instead. When I press tab, it jumps to "tags" box underneath. Does anyone know what the problem is? As far as I can remember, I worked fine last time. (I'm on Mac OS by the way.)

Answer 1

You have misprinted GET. Use:

page = request.GET.get("page")

Please read "Request and response objects" article on Django Docs.
