SystemCheckError about django-locallibrary-tutorial HOT 4 CLOSED

Thanks. I plan on looking at Django example again in the next week or so. Assigned to me.

from django-locallibrary-tutorial.

@nuttaa Is this your own code, or the code from this repo? Can you reproduce this after following the instructions here: https://github.com/mdn/django-locallibrary-tutorial#quick-start

If so, can you please explain exactly how you got the above error. The admin is rock solid for me.

My guess is that this is for your own code and that BookInstance.borrower is not defined.

Hello @nuttaa I got same ERRORS before when I followed the Django Tutorial Part 4

The first error we should put below code (in models.py not admin.py)

class Book(models.Model):
.....
.....
.....
def display_genre(self):

"""Create a string for the Genre. This is required to display genre in Admin."""
return ', '.join(genre.name for genre in self.genre.all()[:3])

display_genre.short_description = 'Genre'

The second error is the Tutorial didn't asked for 'borrower' so we could delete the 'borrower' string

in the end probably need to check all admin.site.register() or @admin.register()

If it still can't solve your problems, I apologize.

@nuttaa Pwhau is correct. The first error indicates that display_genre is being called but is not defined. The function is mention in the documentation, so I suspect you just missed this line.

Further for the second problem this is reporting that in this line the "borrower" field is not defined

@admin.register(BookInstance)
class BookInstanceAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    ...
    list_display = ('book', 'status', 'borrower', 'due_back', 'id')

Basically you need a line like this in your model:

class BookInstance(models.Model):
    ...
    borrower = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.SET_NULL, null=True, blank=True)

The need for adding this line is covered in the user authentication section: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Django/Authentication

I think this is resolved. Thanks for your help @pwhau !
