Re: Import csv file in admin

I must still be missing something here. If all you want to do is to
read CSV file and save the data in the database, I still don't
understand why you use the forms machinery.

You only *need* to use the data model, e.g.

from myapp.models import Data

csvfile = csv.reader('something.csv')

for line in csvfile:
do_necessary_data_conversions_or_checks(line)
try:
Data.objects.create(field1=line[0], field2=line[1], ...)
except (IndexError, IntegrityError):
print 'Invalid line encountered:\n%s' % line

What am I missing?
