I've a form that has 3 sections:

1) tamanios (sizes), 2) cantidades (quantities), 3) archivos subidos (Uploaded Image).

I need to separate 1 & 2 in one page, and 3 in a different page, and save form data to data base.

As far as I've investigated this is possible using formtools. But using formtools I've had to split my model into 2 models: a) TamaniosCantidades, b) ArchivosSubidos, so they can be rendered in different "steps".

Nevertheless, I'd prefer to have only 1 model. But it's ok if the solution contains some ForeingKey to connect both splitted models.

What I need to do in order to save the form as a model object in data base?

I can't think of on how to write the 'done' method in my Wizard Class.

Original model:

class TamaniosCantidades(models.Model):

    TAMANIOS = (('2x2', '2" x 2"',), ('3x3', '3" x 3"',),

               ('4x4', '4" x 4"',), ('5x5', '5" x 5"',))



    CANTIDADES = (('50', '50',), ('100', '100',),

                ('150', '150',))





    tamanios = models.CharField(max_length=10, choices=TAMANIOS)

    cantidades = models.CharField(max_length=10, choices=CANTIDADES)

    imagenes = models.FileField(upload_to='imagenes/')

    uploaded_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)

Modified models (splited result):

class TamaniosCantidades(models.Model):

    TAMANIOS = (('2x2', '2" x 2"',), ('3x3', '3" x 3"',),

               ('4x4', '4" x 4"',), ('5x5', '5" x 5"',))



    CANTIDADES = (('50', '50',), ('100', '100',),

                ('150', '150',))



    tamanios = models.CharField(max_length=10, choices=TAMANIOS)

    cantidades = models.CharField(max_length=10, choices=CANTIDADES)

    # imagenes = models.FileField(upload_to='imagenes/')

    # uploaded_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)



    def __str__(self):

        return self.tamanios





class ArchivosSubidos(models.Model):

    # imagenes = models.FileField(upload_to='imagenes/') #commented because I was having problems uploading files with formtools

    imagenes = models.CharField(max_length=100) #using charfield to test splitting

    uploaded_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)

views.py

class ContactWizard(SessionWizardView):

    template_name = "main_app/contact_form.html"

    file_storage = FileSystemStorage(location=os.path.join(settings.MEDIA_ROOT, 'imagenes'))



    def done(self, form_list, **kwargs):

        form_data = process_form_data(form_list)



        return HttpResponseRedirect('/')

        # return HttpResponseRedirect('/done.html')

        # return render('main_app/done.html', {'form_data':form_data})





def process_form_data(form_list):

    form_data = [form.cleaned_data for form in form_list]



    return form_data

Using formtools may not be a good option(IMHO: it gives less control over your form), instead you can use Django Form and Modelform for multistep forms, and use django session to store the data in each step. In final step, you can pop those session data and store it in model. For example:

# Lets declare our choices in a global scope rather than inside models

TAMANIOS = (('2x2', '2" x 2"',), ('3x3', '3" x 3"',),

           ('4x4', '4" x 4"',), ('5x5', '5" x 5"',))



CANTIDADES = (('50', '50',), ('100', '100',),

            ('150', '150',))



# Declare Forms

class StepOneForm(forms.Form):

    tamanios = forms.ChoiceField(choices=TAMANIOS)



class StepTwoForm(forms.Form):

    cantidades = forms.ChoiceField(choices=CANTIDADES)



# Third step is attached to the model directly, we will do some tweaks inside the save method of this form

class StepThreeForm(forms.ModelForm):

    class Meta:

        model = TamaniosCantidades

        fields = ('imagenes',)



# Views

# First Two steps are basic FormViews, because it will be used just to store data in session

class StepOneView(FormView):

    form_class = StepOneForm

    template_name = 'step_one.html'

    success_url = '/step-two/'



    def get_initials(self):

         # pre-populate form if someone goes back and forth between forms

         initial = super(StepOneView, self).get_initial()

         initial['tamanios'] = self.request.session.get('tamanios', None)

         return initial



    def form_valid(self, form):

        # In form_valid method we can access the form data in dict format

        # and will store it in django session

        self.request.session['tamanios'] = form.cleaned_data.get('tamanios')

        return HttpResponseRedirect(self.get_success_url())





class StepTwoView(FormView):

    form_class = StepTwoForm

    template_name = 'step_two.html'

    success_url = '/step-three/'





    def get_initials(self):

         # pre-populate form if someone goes back and forth between forms

         initial = super(StepOneView, self).get_initial()

         initial['cantidades'] = self.request.session.get('cantidades', None)

         return initial



    def form_valid(self, form):

        # same as StepOneView

        self.request.session['cantidades'] = form.cleaned_data.get('cantidades')

        return HttpResponseRedirect(self.get_success_url())





# here we are going to use CreateView to save the Third step ModelForm

class StepThreeView(CreateView):

    form_class = StepThreeForm

    template_name = 'step_three.html'

    success_url = '/thank-you/'



    def form_valid(self, form):

        form.instance.tamanios = self.request.session.get('tamanios')  # get tamanios from session 

        form.instance.cantidades = self.request.session.get('cantidades')  # get cantidades from session 

        del self.request.session['cantidades']  # delete cantidades value from session

        del self.request.session['tamanios']  # delete tamanios value from session

        self.request.session.modified = True

        return super(StepThreeView, self).form_valid(form)



# template

# step_one.html, step_two.html, step_three.html can be all the same as following code

<form method="post">{% csrf_token %}

    {{ form.as_p }}

    <input type="submit" value="Submit">

</form>



# urls



path('step-one/', StepOneView.as_view()),

path('step-two/', StepTwoView.as_view()),

path('step-three/', StepThreeView.as_view()),

path('thank-you/', TemplateView.as_view(template_name="thank-you.html")),

In this approach, you don't need to split the model, and store the data in last step. FYI: its untested code, but I hope it will put you in right direction for implementation.
