referencing an ID field of a form in Views.py-CodePudding

I am trying to send the url of a model entry to via e-mail when my form is submitted

However when I reference my form.id like so

   `'(http://localhost:8000/zipherJobCards/viewJobCard/' form.cleaned_data['id'] ')',`

I get the following error

KeyError: 'id'

Is there any right way to reference the id of an entry like this ?

Please see the full send_mail function here

def jobCard(request ):
    form = jobCardForm()

    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = jobCardForm(request.POST)
        if form.is_valid():
            form.save()

            send_mail(
                'ZTS JOB CARD'   form.cleaned_data['jobNumber'],
                'A new job card has been loaded for '   form.cleaned_data['customerName']   ' with a Total Cost of '   form.cleaned_data['totalCostOfJob']   '(http://localhost:8000/zipherJobCards/viewJobCard/' form.cleaned_data['id'] ')',
                '[email protected]',
                ['[email protected]'],
                fail_silently=False,
            )

            return redirect('home')
        else:
            print(form.errors)

    content = {'form':form}
    return render(request, 'main/jobCard.html', content)

CodePudding user response：

id (or pk) is not part of the form, it is the primary key that is set when the object is saved. You need to do obj = form.save(), then you can reference the saved object, like obj.id.
