"Object has no property _set" in Django
Can't figure out where my mistake is. Not able to map through to display the list of blog comments. I'm using Django and react. From the code below, I tried to assess each blog post with comments using foreign key. But I'm not able to get the comment property from the blog. If I do something like {blog.title}
I get the title of the blog back on the browser. Since comments are associated with each post I try to get different properties of comment from the blog object (just as I specified in the code below) but the value I'm getting is undefined
. And have the following blog post and blog comment models:
class BlogComment(models.Model):
post = models.ForeignKey(BlogPost, on_delete=models.SET_NULL, related_name="post_comment", null=True)
user = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, on_delete=models.SET_NULL, related_name="user_comment", null=True)
name = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True, blank=True)
comment = models.TextField(null=True, blank=True)
dateCreated = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
def __str__(self):
return str(self.user.username)
class BlogPost(models.Model):
...
author = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, null=True, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
body = models.TextField()
dateCreated = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
And the serializers for both models are:
class CommentSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
class Meta:
model = BlogComment
fields = '__all__'
class BlogPostSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
comments = serializers.SerializerMethodField(read_only=True)
class Meta:
model = BlogPost
fields = "__all__"
def get_comments(self, obj):
comments = obj.comment_set.all()
serializer = CommentSerializer(comments, many=True)
return serializer.data
The endpint of comment is path('posts/<str:pk>/comment/', CreateCommentView, name="create-comment"),
.
The endpoint is working. I'm able to add comment to posts both from the front end. The error comes when I try to map through the
comments for each post. Get the error: AttributeError: 'BlogPost' object has no attribute 'comment_set'
.
Here is the code I'm using to map through to display all the blogs of a particular post in the blog details page in react. I'm assess each blog there:
<h2>{blog.title}</h2>
<img src={blog.image} />
<div variant='flush'>
{blog.comments.map((comment) => (
<div key={comment.id}>
<strong>{comment.name}</strong>
<p>{comment.dateCreated}</p>
<p>{comment.comment}</p>
</div>
))}
</div>
Here is the code I'm using to map through to display all the blogs of a particular post in the blog details page in react. If I do not map the error does not come up and I'm able to add comment. However, in order to display the comments under each blog post I map through. How do I fix this?
You need to use post_comment
:
comments = obj.post_comment.all()
You declared it here:
post = models.ForeignKey(BlogPost, on_delete=models.SET_NULL, related_name="post_comment", null=True)
related_name
is used as a name for Django relation. See more here.
But changing post_comment
with something else would be a better solution for me.
