Django form insert record instead of update record

Question

I am having some issues trying to update some records in Django: When i try to update some record, the app insert a new one, I don't know why i have this behavior.

Model

class DetalleRecepcion(models.Model):
    id_proveedor = models.ForeignKey(Proveedor,db_column='id_proveedor',primary_key=True, verbose_name='Proveedor')
    anio = models.IntegerField( null=False)
    mes = models.IntegerField(verbose_name='Mes')
    fecha_recepcion = models.DateField(verbose_name='Fecha Recepcion')
    usuario = models.CharField(max_length=15, blank=True)
    num_archivos = models.IntegerField(primary_key=True, verbose_name='No de archivos')
    class Meta:
        managed = False
        db_table = 'mpc_detalle_recepcion'

view:

@login_required(login_url='/login/')
def DetRecView(request):
    idp = request.GET.get('i')
    anio = request.GET.get('a')
    mes = request.GET.get('m')
    if request.method == 'POST':
       r = DetalleRecepcion.objects.get(id_proveedor=idp,anio=anio,mes=mes)
       form = DetRecForm(request.POST or None, instance =r)
       if form.is_valid():
          form.save()
          return HttpResponse('<script type="text/javascript">window.close()</script>')
    else:
       r = DetalleRecepcion.objects.get(id_proveedor=idp,anio=anio,mes=mes)
       r.usuario = request.user
       form = DetRecForm(instance=r)

    return render_to_response('detrec.html',
                              {'form':form},
                              context_instance=RequestContext(request))

Form:

class DetRecForm(forms.ModelForm):
      fecha_recepcion = forms.DateField(widget=DateInput(),)
      def __init__(self,*args,**kwargs):
          super(DetRecForm,self).__init__(*args,**kwargs)
          self.helper = FormHelper(self)
          self.helper.layout = Layout(
           Field('id_proveedor',
                 'anio',
                 'mes',
                 'usuario',
                 readonly = True
                 ),
           Fieldset('',
                    'fecha_recepcion',
                    'num_archivos',
                    Submit('save','Grabar'),
                    HTML('<a class="btn btn-danger" id="cerrar">Cancelar</a>')
                    )
          )
      class Meta:
          model = DetalleRecepcion

I use the same view and form definition for others models to render edit forms and with this other models works great and the records are updated. I don't understand what it's happen. I rewrite the form, view definition for this model and I don't know what it is the problem. The database is a legacy database and the tables doesn't have any kind of relationship or constraint. By the way I am using Django crispy form

Thanks in advance

If you using same form for create and update views, then you need provide clean method on your unique field and raise ValidationError when object exists.

But in your case, I assuming you using Composite Primary Key on fields: id_proveedor, num_archivos, you should override clean method of the whole form:

class DetRecForm(forms.ModelForm):
    fecha_recepcion = forms.DateField(widget=DateInput())

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(DetRecForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.helper = FormHelper(self)
        self.helper.layout = Layout(
            Field('id_proveedor',
                  'anio',
                  'mes',
                  'usuario',
                  readonly=True
            ),
            Fieldset('',
                     'fecha_recepcion',
                     'num_archivos',
                     Submit('save', 'Grabar'),
                     HTML('<a class="btn btn-danger" id="cerrar">Cancelar</a>')
            )
        )

    def clean(self):
        cleaned_data = super(DetRecForm, self).clean()

        id_proveedor = self.cleaned_data['id_proveedor']
        num_archivos = self.cleaned_data['num_archivos']

        qs = self.Meta.model.objects.filter(id_proveedor=id_proveedor, num_archivos=num_archivos)
        if self.instance:
            qs = qs.exclude(pk=self.instance.id)
        if qs.count() > 0:
            raise forms.ValidationError(u'Such object exists!')

        return cleaned_data

    class Meta:
        model = DetalleRecepcion

Answer 2

尝试例如通过pk获取对象

DetalleRecepcion.objects.get(pk=kwargs['pk'])
