I need to set optional parameters using Django. I try a method saw on Stack Overflow but it didn't work.
My code :
views.py :
def get(self, request, id_document, optional_parameters = 'owner'):
#code here
urls.py :
url(r'^getdoclist/(?P<id_document>[^/]+)/$', Get_DocumentList.as_view()),
url(r'^getdoclist/(?P<id_document>[^/]+)/(?P<owner>[^/]+)/$', Get_DocumentList.as_view()),
it didn't work using this method :(
Thanks if you could help me
You need to use opitional parameter like this:
def get(self, request, id_document, owner=None): # owner=any other value
Or
def get(self, request, id_document, **kwargs):
owner = self.kwargs.get('owner', None)
Alternativly, you can consider URL querystring. Then you do not need to define two urls in urls.py, but you can still get the value, like this:
def get(self, request, id_document, **kwargs):
owner = request.GET.get('owner')
Then you need to call the url like this:
localhost:8000/getdoclist/1234567890/?owner=SomeOne
^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
document id owner value after question mark
