Re: How do I Iterate database object querysets

Hello,

I would recommend to create a django form and feed the post data to this form.

Because 

1) the form will extract the post data for you

2) in the form you will be able the validate and clean the post data (you should definitively do that)

The code that saves the data to the form could also live in the form.

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/forms/

If the structure of the post data matches the structure of the database model closely, then a model form would be the easiest way.

          for lis in Licenses.objects.values('code'):

             for post_value in insert_data:     

                 if lis in post_value:

                         license_tag += insert_data[lis] + ','

so im trying that now but the problem is django is causing issues when iterating over a dictionary i think because its a post dictionary 

Exception Value:

coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, dict found
