Adding comment feature in Django DetailView? - python-3.x

Question

What the simplest logic i can add in class HotelDetailView(DetailView) so users can comment on a particular hotel detail page. And it capture user too.
models.py
class Hotel(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=150)
owner = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, default=1)
image = models.ImageField(upload_to=upload_location, null=True, blank=True)
class CommentOnHotel(models.Model):
hotel = models.ForeignKey(Hotel, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
content = models.TextField(max_length=200)
published = models.DateField(auto_now_add=True)
def __str__(self):
return '{} - {}'.format(self.hotel.name, self.user.email)
Forms.py
class CommentOnHotelForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = CommentOnHotel
fields = ['content']
views.py
class HotelDetailView(DetailView):
model = Hotel
........

Answer 1

actually i gave you the better approach for that, but if you want to make all logic and functions at DetailView which is not recommended, here is the solution, you need to override POST function of DetaiView:
class HotelDetailView(DetailView):
model = Hotel
def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
# get the hotel object
hotel = self.get_object()
#check for validation of form
form = CommentOnHotelForm({
"hotel": hotel,
"user" :request.user
"comment": request.POST.comment
})
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
#choose where you want to redirect
