Django objects.all() not updating without server restart
django objects.all() only seems to be updating after server restart. For example, I would make a category called 'Education' and it shows up on the admin site, but when I'm using in the form, it will not show up unless I restart the live server.
forms.py:
def tuplelistmaker(list):
output = []
for x in list:
newtuple = (x.pk, x)
output.append(newtuple)
print(output)
return output
class PostForm(forms.Form):
title = forms.CharField(max_length=100, label='Post Title')
short_description = forms.CharField(widget=forms.Textarea(attrs={"rows":3, "cols":100}))
content = forms.CharField(widget=CKEditorWidget())
status = forms.NullBooleanField(label='Ready to Publish?')
image = forms.ImageField(label='Select a cover image:')
captioned_image = forms.ImageField(label='Select a captionable image:')
caption = forms.CharField(max_length=200)
category = forms.ChoiceField(choices = tuplelistmaker(list(PostCategory.objects.all())))
embed = forms.CharField(widget=forms.Textarea(attrs={"rows":3, "cols":100}))
tags = forms.CharField(widget=forms.Textarea(attrs = {"rows":1, "cols":150}))
models.py:
class PostCategory(models.Model):
category = models.CharField(max_length=100)
categorySlug = models.SlugField(max_length=100)
def __str__(self):
return self.category
class Post(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=200, unique=True)
slug = models.SlugField(max_length=200, unique=True)
author = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name= 'blog_posts')
short_description = models.TextField()
updated_on = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True)
content = RichTextField()
created_on = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True)
status = models.IntegerField(choices=Status, default=0)
cover_image = models.ImageField(upload_to = 'coverimages', null =True, blank = True)
captioned_image = models.ImageField(upload_to = 'captionedimages', null=True, blank = True)
caption = models.CharField(max_length=300)
featured = models.IntegerField(choices=Featured, default=1)
category = models.ForeignKey(PostCategory, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True, blank=True)
embedded_code = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True, default='null')
tags = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True)
class Meta:
ordering = ['-created_on']
def __str__(self):
return self.title
