Re: Binding data to one o many forms from one view - BadHeaderError at - Header values can't contain newlines ()

Hi,

Inside your "post" method, you have this line:

context = super(AccountProfilesView, self).post(request, *args, **kwargs)

in that case "context" is a HttpResponse object[0]. May be, from the name you use for the variable, you think this is a simple dict as those used to pass context to render functions; it is not.
You can use HttpResponse as a dictionary to put HTTP headers in the response [1], so line 184 is setting an HTTP header with a value of the HTML to render the form; that is not what you want.
You have to remove that line and create your context with something like:

context = {}

And you have to return an HttpResponse object, probably by calling one of the render functions [2].

I have the following forms to each user profile

I have an URL which call to my AccountProfilesView class based view which create an instance of the previous forms according to the user profile:

        url(r"^profile/(?P<slug>[\w\-]+)/$",

            views.AccountProfilesView.as_view(),

                name='profile'

        ),

My AccountProfilesView  is this:

I this moment, from the AccountProfilesView class based view I am create the different instances of each one of these forms, according to the 

user profile, then, if an user have the is_student profile their related form will be generated, and so, of this way to is_professor  and is_executive profiles

If an user have the three profiles (is_student, is_professor,is_executive ) in one single form will be created or rendered the fields of the three forms associated to each user profile related.

class AccountProfilesView(LoginRequiredMixin, UpdateView):

        # All users can access this view

        model = get_user_model()

        #success_url = reverse_lazy('dashboard')

        template_name = 'accounts/profile_form.html'

        fields = '__all__'

    

        def get_context_data(self, **kwargs):

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

            user = self.request.user

    

            if not self.request.POST:

                if user.is_student:

                    profile = user.get_student_profile()

                    context['userprofile'] = profile

                    context['form_student'] = forms.StudentProfileForm()

                if user.is_professor:

                    profile = user.get_professor_profile()

                    context['userprofile'] = profile

                    context['form_professor'] = forms.ProfessorProfileForm()

                    print ("profesor form is", context['form_professor'])

                if user.is_executive:

                    profile = user.get_executive_profile()

                    context['userprofile'] = profile

                    context['form_executive'] = forms.ExecutiveProfileForm()

            return context

    

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

            self.object = self.get_object()

            context = super(AccountProfilesView, self).post(request, *args, **kwargs)

            user = self.request.user

            # if self.request.method == 'POST':

            if user.is_student:

                context['form_student'] = forms.StudentProfileForm(

                    self.request.POST)

            elif user.is_professor:

                context['form_professor'] = forms.ProfessorProfileForm(

                    self.request.POST)

            elif user.is_executive:

                context['form_executive'] = forms.ExecutiveProfileForm(

                    self.request.POST)

            return context

    

        def form_valid(self, form):

            context = self.get_context_data(form=form)

            user = self.request.user

            user = form.save()

            if user.is_student:

                student = context['form_student'].save(commit=False)

                student.user = user

                student.save()

            if user.is_professor:

                professor = context['form_professor'].save(commit=False)

                professor.user = user

                professor.save()

            if user.is_executive:

                executive = context['form_executive'].save(commit=False)

                executive.user = user

                executive.save()

            return super(AccountProfilesView, self).form_valid(form)

    

        def get_success_url(self):

            return reverse('dashboard')

 And in my template, I have the following small logic:

        <form method="POST">

            {% csrf_token %}

            {% if userprofile.user.is_student %}

        

            <div align="center"><i>My Student Profile data</i></div>

                {% bootstrap_form form_student %}

            {% endif %}

             

            

            {% if userprofile.user.is_professor %}

                <div align="center"><i>My Professor Profile data</i></div>

                {% bootstrap_form form_professor %}

            {% endif %}

            

            

            {% if userprofile.user.is_executive %} 

                <div align="center"><i>My Executive Profile data</i></div>  

                {% bootstrap_form form_executive %}

            {% endif %}

    

            <input type="submit" value="Save Changes" class="btn btn-default">

        </form>

From the perspective of show the forms with the fields according to the userprofile, this approach works, the data or fields related to the user profile are denoted or renderised

For example this user have the three profiles  and in the screen of profile in the application, show the three forms:

But at moment of perform update of such view screen form, (in which each profile have their respective model/table in where their own data are managed)

happened the following:

When I click en Save Changes there is an error:

File "/home/bgarcial/workspace/ihost_project/accounts/views.py", line 185, in post

        self.request.POST)

      File "/home/bgarcial/.virtualenvs/ihost/lib/python3.5/site-packages/django/http/response.py", line 142, in __setitem__

        value = self._convert_to_charset(value, 'latin-1', mime_encode=True)

      File "/home/bgarcial/.virtualenvs/ihost/lib/python3.5/site-packages/django/http/response.py", line 115, in _convert_to_charset

    [08/Apr/2017 20:21:13] "POST /accounts/profile/luisa/ HTTP/1.1" 500 108206

More precisely:

I think so, is that at the moment of create the form instances of the Django forms, and I denote that the data to be included in the request  and the POST operation, this is not validated of some way

 

I unknown the traceback error:

BadHeaderError

Header values can't contain newlines (got '<tr><th>) ..... 

I've searched that error, but I don't have related information about it.
