I have a formset created using inlineformset_factory. It doesn’t matter what it looks like to answer this question. In the template I am looping through it with for form in forms.formset:
I want to be able to display the form index of the form in my template. By form index, I mean the number associated with that form in all of the formfields. Is there a variable that does this? I tried form.index and form.form_id and form.id is a field.
No, objects in a collection don’t generally have access to their index or key.
However if you’re outputting the formset in a template, you’re presumably looping through the forms. So you can use
{% forloop.counter %}to get the index of the iteration.
