Question

I have the following urls.py

urlpatterns = patterns('accounts.views',
  url(r'^user/(?P<id>\w+)/$', 'profile'),
)

I have the following views.py

def profile(request, id):
  user = UserProfile.objects.get(user__username=id)
  product = Mattress.objects.filter(owner = id)   #PROBLEM IS IN THIS LINE
  c = RequestContext(request, {
    'action': 'update/',
    'button': 'Update', 
    'profile': user,
    'product': product,
  })
  return render_to_response('registration/user_profile.html', c)

When I type in the url “http://127.0.0.1:8000/user/goelv/&#8221;, the id “goelv” is succesfully captured. However, I’m getting the error < invalid literal for int() with base 10: ‘goelv’ > which traces to my views.py in the line product=Mattress.objects.filter(owner = id).

For reference, I have the following models.py where the owner field simply correlates to a User object

class Product(models.Model):
  owner = models.ForeignKey(User, null=True, blank=True)
  title = models.CharField(max_length=50)
  manufacturer = models.CharField(max_length=75)
  product_description = models.TextField(max_length=2000)

Can anyone see what I’m doing wrong or how to go about fixing this problem? Thanks for the help!

Answer 1

If you are referring to id, then it should be integer not string.

However, this would solve your problem.

product = Mattress.objects.filter(owner = user)

Note: using user instead of id in filter as you have already retrieved user object.
