Re: ListView CBV and a form

This appears to work. Using a view for 2 functions seems pretty fugly though. Are there better ways to achieve this?

class CreateComment(ListView, FormMixin):

model = Comment

paginate_by = 2

form_class = CommentForm

def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs):

form = CommentForm(self.request.POST)

if form.is_valid():

obj = form.save(commit=False)

obj.creator = request.user

obj.object_id = self.kwargs['pk']

obj.content_type_id = self.kwargs['ct']

obj.save()

else:

return super(CreateComment, self).post(request, *args, **kwargs)

def get_queryset(self):

comments = Comment.objects.filter(

object_id=self.kwargs['pk'], content_type_id=self.kwargs['ct']

)

return comments

def get_context_data(self, **kwargs):

context = super(CreateComment, self).get_context_data(**kwargs)

context['form'] = CommentForm

return context

I think that you shoul use CreateView to create new objects or UpdateView to update them.
ListView is used to represent a list of objects.
