Can a dictionary be passed to django models on create?

If title and body are fields in your model, then you can deliver the keyword arguments in your dictionary using the ** operator Assuming your model is called MyModel : create instance of model m = MyModel(**data_dict) # don't forget to save to database! M.save() As for your second question, the dictionary has to be the final argument. Again extra and extra2 should be fields in the model m2 =MyModel(extra='hello', extra2='world', **data_dict) m2.save().

3 Thanks, that is exactly what I was looking to do. Also, as a side note just based off your post. You don't have to call the save method when using Model.objects.

Create(**data_dict). You probably already know this but just a heads up. – clarence Oct 15 '09 at 14:00 I've not used the objects.

Create method before, so you've taught me something new. – Alasdair Oct 15 '09 at 14:13 2 also objects. Create returns a pointer to the new model, with a valid pk filled in.

This means you can immediately use it to build related models. – Tom Leys Oct 16 '09 at 6:21.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
