I want to build a food delivering app, but facing this error. "FieldError: Cannot resolve keyword 'category_name_contains' into field. Choices are: catego ry, description, id, image, name, order, price"
this is the query.py
try:
model = field.model._meta.concrete_model
except AttributeError:
# QuerySet.annotate() may introduce fields that aren't
# attached to a model.
model = None
else:
# We didn't find the current field, so move position back
# one step.
pos -= 1
if pos == -1 or fail_on_missing:
available = sorted(
[
*get_field_names_from_opts(opts),
*self.annotation_select,
*self._filtered_relations,
]
)
raise FieldError(
"Cannot resolve keyword '%s' into field. "
"Choices are: %s" % (name, ", ".join(available))
)
break
this is the view.py

so this my problem I have tried many solutions still not getting the problem here. As I can see that there is no problem in my core code but there is some internal issues, but still I can't run my program without solving them. can anyone help. it is urgent.
CodePudding user response：
You are almost there.
You need to double the _ sign
category_name_contains to category_name__contains
CodePudding user response：
The error makes complete sense, it is because you have ManyToMany relation with your field category, and you are filtering through filter(category_name_contains) which is not right at all.
Field lookups required __ as a prefix not _. So it must be __contains.
You should use filter(category__name__contains='Appetizer') for every condition.
If you want to filter only through names, so you can simply filter with:
Views.py
class Order(View):
def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
# get every item from each category
appetizers = MenuItem.objects.filter(
category__name__contains='Appetizer')
main_course = MenuItem.objects.filter(
category__name__contains='Main Course')
desserts = MenuItem.objects.filter(category__name__contains='Dessert')
drinks = MenuItem.objects.filter(category__name__contains='Drink')
# pass into context
context = {
'appetizers': appetizers,
'main_course': main_course,
'desserts': desserts,
'drinks': drinks,
}
# render the templates
return render(request, 'custormer/order.html', context)
Note:ManyToManyField required its name to be defined astable_namewithsto be the suffix, that means plural of table name. It will be better if you name it ascategoriesinstead ofin yourcategoryMenuItemmodel.
Note:Models doesn't require model to be the suffix, so it will be better if you name it asOrderinstead of.OrderModel
