So inside of models.py, I have a class called airport and a class
4,365.78
3.72
called flight.
4,369.5
1.51
And if we look at the files I have, there's
4,371.01
1.88
another file we haven't really looked at yet called admin.py inside of my app.
4,372.89
4.77
And inside of admin.py, I'll first from my models import flight and airport.
4,377.66
6.24
And now, I'm going to say, admin.site.register airport.
4,383.9
4.41
And admin.site.register flight.
4,388.31
4.88
And what this is going to do is it is going
4,393.19
2.11
to tell Django's admin app that I would like to use the admin
4,395.3
3.57
app to be able to manipulate airports and to be able to manipulate flights
4,398.87
4.59
as well.
4,403.46
1.78
So let's take a look at this admin app and see how it actually works.
4,405.24
3.47
I can run python manage.py run server.
4,408.71
4.35
That will start up the web server.
4,413.06
1.92
I'll now visit this URL.
4,414.98
1.23
Instead of going to /flights I'll go /admin.
4,416.21
3.39
And this opens up this Django administration app
4,419.6
3.94
that is not written by me.
4,423.54
1.13
Django has written this, and it's asking me to log in.
4,424.67
2.82
I'll go ahead and log in using those credentials I used a moment ago, typing
4,427.49
3.36
in my username and password.
4,430.85
1.59
And what I get here is Django's site administration interface.
4,432.44
4.5
Built for me by Django, where I didn't need to design this at all.
4,436.94
3.09
But importantly, if we noticed down here,
4,440.03
2.1
I now have the ability to add and manipulate
4,442.13
2.37
airports and flights via this web interface, this Django
4,444.5
3.51
administrative interface.
4,448.01
1.15
So now, using this interface, I have the ability
4,449.16
2.54
to manipulate the underlying database.
4,451.7
1.95
To manipulate my models to add and modify data that already exists.
4,453.65
4.74
So if I click on airports, for example, I see here,
4,458.39
2.78
here are all of the airports that I've already added to my database.
4,461.17
2.98
Tokyo, Paris, London, and New York.
4,464.15
2.22
And I can add a new one.
4,466.37
1.08
I can say, let's go ahead and add PVG which is Shanghai.
4,467.45
4.14
And I can either save it, save and continue editing, save and add another.
4,471.59
3.32
I'm going to add a couple, so I'll go ahead and save and add another.
4,474.91
2.875
Let's go ahead and add Istanbul airport as well.
4,477.785
2.925
Let's add Moscow as an airport two, and maybe one more, we'll add Lima as well.
4,480.71
6.84
And I'll just go ahead and click save.
4,487.55
1.62
And now, I've added a whole bunch of airports all via this web interface.
4,489.17
3.6
Django was originally created for news organization that
4,492.77
3.02
very quickly wanted to be able to post articles and post
4,495.79
2.65
new posts on their website.
4,498.44
1.41
And it made it very easy via an interface like this
4,499.85
2.43
to very quickly just say, here, add a new article
4,502.28
2.52
and here's the content of the article, to be able to display on a page.
4,504.8
3.27
And now, we've been able to very quickly add new airports to our website
4,508.07
3.81
as well.
4,511.88
1.03
And so if we want to add flights, well, we can go ahead and go back home.
4,512.91
5.09
Click on flights.
4,518
1.38
I see that I already have two flights inside of my database.
4,519.38
2.58
I have New York to London and New York to Paris.
4,521.96
2.46
I'll add a new one.
4,524.42
1.38
It's letting me choose an origin, destination, and duration.
4,525.8
2.88
And Django knows that the origin must be an airport,
4,528.68
2.67
so it's going to give me the opportunity to just choose an airport.
4,531.35
3.05
Where I can say, OK, Shanghai is the origin.
4,534.4
2.23
The destination is going to be Paris, and the duration
4,536.63
2.67
is going to be 760 minutes, for example.
4,539.3
3.11
So now, using Django's admin interface, I've
4,542.41
2.27
been able to add a number of different flights
4,544.68
2.1
and a number of different airports.
4,546.78
1.65
And if I go back, not to the admin app, but to my flights app,
4,548.43
3.78
the app that I wrote myself, and go back to /flights.
4,552.21
2.76
Now, I actually see all of the new flights
4,554.97
2.82
that I have added to my database via Django's admin interface.
4,557.79
3.463
I added them to the admin interface, and now I see this flight from Shanghai
4,561.253
3.167
to Paris.
4,564.42
0.78
I see this flight from Paris to New York as well.
4,565.2
4.57
And so now, what I might like to do is begin
4,569.77
2.06
to add some more pages to this web application.
4,571.83
2.45
Make this web application a little more sophisticated
4,574.28
2.86
by maybe giving me the ability to click on a particular flight
4,577.14
3.72
to view details about that flight.
4,580.86
1.98
What I'd like is for every flight to have its own page,
4,582.84
2.82
not just /flights for all the flights, but /flight/one for flight ID one.
4,585.66
4.86
/flight/two for ID two, so on and so forth.
4,590.52
3.72
What I can do in order to do that is go back into urls.py
4,594.24
4.41
and create a new path.
4,598.65
1.44
We'll create a path where I'm going to specify
4,600.09
2.67
a flight ID, which would be an integer.
4,602.76
2.73
When I do, let's go ahead and load the flight view, whose name will be flight.
4,605.49
4.32
And now, I need to just go to views.py and add a function called flight.
4,609.81
4.92
So I go back, go into views.py.
4,614.73
2.34
In addition to an index function, we'll define a flight function that
4,617.07
4.14
accepts as an argument a flight ID.
4,621.21
3.18
So now, what is the flight function going to do?
4,624.39
2.35
Well, the first thing I need to do is actually get that flight.
4,626.74
3.08
I can say flight equals flight.objects.get.
4,629.82
2.81
Get me the flight whose idea is equal to flight ID, for example.
4,632.63
6.34
Or alternatively, Django also let's you say pk instead of ID.
4,638.97
3.72
It's a much more generic way of referencing
4,642.69
1.8
the primary key, for whatever the primary key happens to be called.
4,644.49
3.36
The pk in this case is just the ID.
4,647.85
2.31
But then what I can do is render a template, like flight/flight.html,
4,650.16
6.63
and pass as input to that the flight.
4,656.79
3.63
So we're passing this flight to flight.html.
4,660.42
3.87
And now, I can create a template--
4,664.29
2.01
create a new file called flight.html which is going to also extend
4,666.3
5.73
