如何在formset中呈现django haystack搜索结果

Question

I am using haystack for search. I need to allow the user to add additional data to search entries after a search and so I believe I need to use the search results in a formset or list of forms.

For example when search for food I would be able to add the serving size:

How can I accomplish this?

Your question does not contain enough information for a detailed answer but based on the information you've given I would suggest you take a look at creating unbound forms using the Django Formfactory and populating them with data.

You can then use these populated forms in the way you requested.

I'll give you some example code to get you started:

    def _create_form_instances(self, model_name=None, exclude=None):
        """Creates an form instance for the provided model_name"""

        for content_type in self.content_types:
            if model_name == content_type._meta.object_name:
                form = modelform_factory(content_type, exclude=exclude)

                return form

     #The following code comes from a different function:

     unbound_form = self._create_form_instances(
                    model_name=item._meta.object_name,
                    exclude=('page', 'content_html'))

                instance_to_form_mapping = {'content': item.content}

                bound_form = unbound_form(instance_to_form_mapping)
