Multiple models in UpdateView

Question

Is it possible to pass multiple models into the UpdateView?

Something like:

models = (FirstModel, SecondModel)

Answer 1

Not via the models attribute for UpdateView.

But what you can do is either utilize extra_context or override the get_context_data() and add the models there.

An example of one such override would be:

class TaffyUpdateView(UpdateView):

    def get_context_data(self, **kwargs):
        context = super(TaffyUpdateView, self).get_context_data(**kwargs)
        context['second_model'] = SecondModel.objects.get(id=1) #whatever you would like
        return context
