Intro to Class-Based Views in Django

If you were wondering how class-based views work in Django, I will introduce the concept to you in this video.

Got your email recently about the new flask uploads. I haven't checked it out as I am more into Django. This video is pretty easy to follow and understand. Thanks Anthony.

Class based views are most probably awesome, but in this particular case it just doubles the amount of lines. I cant find any added value except turning it slowly into Java.
I dont know a thing about class based views, it's just my first impression. I was sure improvements works other way around - reducing boilerplate instead of literally multiplying it.

Is this in Django REST Framework ? Or in Django ?

Where from did you learn class based view?

thanks a lot how to get the current Post in home page while commenting. because there are many posts and when I click I want vivre to recognize which posts I am commenting.

pk= 2 but I want pk = pk and it gets more posts on listview and confused the comment form

in CarView class there are two functions called get and post. Those name are default by django or can i give a different name for those tow classes

This video misses most of the point of class based views. The author is using the most basic 'view' object, which requires that he repeat most of the logic from his function based view in the class based view, which provides very little benefit. The true 'magic' happens when your new class based view inherits from one of the generic views such as FormView, CreateView, UpdateView, etc. All you have to do is set a few properties within the class and eliminate the boilerplate code that is shown in this example. If you are watching this video you should really try to find another example that illustrates use of the generic views in order to better understand the true power of class based views.

I'm finding it difficult to understand the use of class base view

I've a REQUEST... can you make a video on more real projects like. a small website where we login as admin and have authority to remove or add other accounts. and someone can easily make an account and start posting etc. like a mini social network? wouldn't be that great?

[zhaoyinqin]

I saw people using form_class, add_form, and form. What are the differences?

[webtutor]

in class multiple methods is there how i can pass this method in url file in is_view()

[marvinotieno]

How can i pass a primary key of an object to a class based view?

[rohitbhanot]

Though I always like all of ur videos, but in this case, I don't really get when n why would u use class based views

[Shadownrun]

come on... you could make a def for rendering instead of declaring form, context and calling render for both methods! That is super usefull!! anyways thank you for the video

This is a pretty bad way to use the class Model in django.
