I'm trying to imeplement an edit formset. Then, i'm instancing the objects in the formset using modelformset_factory. When the request isn't POST, the formset loads perfectly, but, if the request is POST, the formset constructor raises a MultiValueDictKeyError.
This is my code.
class SchoolSectionForm(forms.ModelForm):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
self.helper = FormHelper()
self.helper.form_tag = False
self.helper.layout = Layout(
Div(
'name',
css_class='name',
),
)
super(SchoolSectionForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
class Meta:
model = SchoolSection
exclude = [
'school',
'created_by',
]
class SectionBreakFormSet(BaseFormSet):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(SectionBreakFormSet, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
class SectionBreakForm(forms.ModelForm):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
self.helper = FormHelper()
self.helper.form_tag = False
self.helper.layout = Layout(
Div(
Div(
'start_time',
css_class='start_time',
),
Div(
'end_time',
css_class='end_time',
),
css_class='formset_element',
)
)
super(SectionBreakForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
class Meta:
model = SectionBreak
exclude = [
'school_section',
'created_by',
]
def school_section_edit(request, section_id):
section = get_object_or_404(
SchoolSection,
id=section_id,
)
current_school = request.user.current_school
school_sections_list = current_school.schoolsection_set.all()
section_break_formset = modelformset_factory(
SectionBreak,
max_num=3,
extra=0,
form=SectionBreakForm,
)
formset_qset = SectionBreak.objects.filter(school_section=section)
formset = section_break_formset(queryset=formset_qset)
school_section_form = SchoolSectionForm(instance=section)
if request.method == 'POST':
school_section_form = SchoolSectionForm(request.POST)
# Bug raises in this line
formset = section_break_formset(request.POST, queryset=formset_qset)
# Bug raises in this line
if school_section_form.is_valid() and formset.is_valid():
school_section_form.save()
formset.save()
messages.success(
request,
u'xxx',
)
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('school:school_section_add'))
else:
messages.error(
request,
u'xxx',
)
return render(request, 'school/schoolsection_add.html', {
'school_section_form': school_section_form,
'formset': formset,
'school_sections_list': school_sections_list,
})
<form class="new_section_form" method="post" action="">

You might need to add the form id {{ form.id }} e.g.
{% crispy formset formset.form.id %}
Form id is hidden field but if you not include it in form in your template then it will through the above error. if include it in your template you will get rid of above error
Ex:
{{form.title}} #this field you want to display
{{ form.id }} # this is hidden field, this will not get display in form. but at the time of form-set submission this is required.
