I am creating an app using django where an user can search for definition of some things. So f.e. he is inputing a word "security" to get definition of this. He gets results and then he is pushing back button. And then he gets a website, but the search-field still stores the old data/input "security". How can i fix this?
template:
<div>
<h1><a href="/">Drink drank drunk</a></h1>
</div>
<h1>Jakie masz skladniki?</h1>
<form action="{% url 'search_results' %}" method="get">
<input name="q" type="text" placeholder="Search...">
</form>
{% if messages %}
<ul class="messages">
{% for message in messages %}
<li{% if message.tags %} class="{{ message.tags }}"{% endif %}>{{ message }}</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
{% endif %}
views:
from django.shortcuts import render
from django.db.models import Q #new
from .models import Recipe
from .models import Ingredient
from django.contrib import messages
from django.shortcuts import redirect
def drink_list(request):
template = "drinks/drink_list.html"
return render(request, template)
def search_results(besos):
query = besos.GET.get('q')
if not query or query == ' ' or query == ' ' or query == ' ':
#how to write this ^ in shortest way? if string is empty then return 'drink_list'
messages.error(besos, "Search field can not be empty")
return redirect('drink_list')
else:
q = Q()
for queries in query.split():
q |= (Q(ingredients__ingredient_name__icontains=queries))
#why it look for 'sok z cytryny' and show as well sok z limonki
results = Recipe.objects.filter(q)
template = "drinks/search_results.html"
context = {
'results' : results,
}
return render(besos, template, context)
URL:
urlpatterns = [
path('', views.drink_list, name='drink_list'),
path('search/', views.search_results, name='search_results'),
path('no_name/', views.drink_list, name='drink_list'),
]
