Question

how do you use model formset in Django? When you do this:

from django.forms.models import modelformset_factory
OrderFormset = modelformset_factory(Order)
formset = OrderFormset()

formset has all Orders from DB…

How do I limit them for example to profile.orders (Profila is connected to Order with FK)?

Thanks in advance,
Etam.

Answer 1

By passing a queryset argument

from django.forms.models import modelformset_factory
OrderFormset = modelformset_factory(Order)
formset = OrderFormset(queryset=Order.objects.filter(name="myorder"))
