'verifyForm' object has no attribute 'reception'-CodePudding

I have a page where it allows the user to enter the reception number, so when the user enter the reception number, it should verify with the database if the reception number exist, but i am having this error: 'verifyForm' object has no attribute 'reception'. How do I solve this error? Updated with traceback error

views.py

@login_required()
def verifydetails(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        #Customername = request.GET['Customername']
        form = AddForm(request.POST or None)

        if form.reception == Photo.reception:
            messages.success(request, 'Both Reception and customer name match')
            return redirect('AddMCO')

        else:
            messages.success(request, 'Both Reception and customer do not match')
            return redirect('verifydetails')


    else:
        form = AddForm()

    return render(request, 'verifydetails.html', {'form': form, })

forms.py

class verifyForm(forms.Form):
    reception = forms.CharField(label='',
                              widget=forms.TextInput(
                                  attrs={"class": 'form-control', 'placeholder': 'Enter Reception number'}))

    class meta:
        model = Photo
        fields = ('reception')

CodePudding user response：

form = AddForm(request.POST or None) This line says that form can also be None if object is not found.

You're trying to run this line if form.reception == Photo.reception: before checking if form is valid or None.

To solve this problem, do something like:

if form:
    if form.reception == Photo.reception:
         ........
else(optional):
    print("the object doesn't exist")

CodePudding user response：

Change form.reception to form.cleaned_data["reception"]
