can't compare datetime.datetime to datetime.date django-CodePudding

I'm trying to build reservation app. I tried to find the solution but I have no idea.

I want to compare date of reservation from check_availibility with date from form. In form I've made:

check_in = forms.DateField(required=True, input_formats=["%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M", ])
check_out = forms.DateField(required=True, input_formats=["%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M", ])

import datetime

def check_availability(room, check_in, check_out): 
avail_list = [] 
booking_list = Booking.objects.filter(room=room)
for booking in booking_list:
    if booking.check_in > check_out or booking.check_out < check_in:
        avail_list.append(True)
    else:
        avail_list.append(False)
return all(avail_list) 


from hotelbooking.booking_funkctions.availibility import check_availability

class BookingView(FormView):
    form_class = AvalilabilityForm
    template_name = 'availability_form.html'

def form_valid(self, form):
    data = form.cleaned_data 
    room_list = Room.objects.filter(category=data['room_category'])
    available_rooms=[]
    for room in room_list: 
        if check_availability(room, data['check_in'], data['check_out']):
            available_rooms.append(room)

    if len(available_rooms)>0:
        room = available_rooms[0]
        booking = Booking.objects.create(
            user = self.request.user,
            room = room,
            check_in = data['check_in'],
            check_out = data['check_out']
        )
        booking.save()
        return HttpResponse(booking)
    else:
        return HttpResponse('this category of rooms are booked')

Just call the .date() method for the datetime one:

from datetime import datetime, date

is_today_today = datetime.now().date() == date.today() # valid

print(is_today_today) # True  # (the only time that is real is the present)

CodePudding user response：

Since you're cleaning the date it should already convert the date strings to date objects, so you can do this:

def check_availability(room, check_in, check_out): 
avail_list = [] 
booking_list = Booking.objects.filter(room=room)
for booking in booking_list:
    if booking.check_in.date() > check_out.date() or booking.check_out.date() < check_in.date():
        avail_list.append(True)
    else:
        avail_list.append(False)
return all(avail_list)
