Change Values Of User Model While It Has Onetoonefield Connection To Another Model In Modelforms Django

i have problems with Django ModelForms and here is one of them i wanna have some extra fields for User Model in Django and so made an CustomeUser Model in models.py models.py class

Solution 1:

models.py

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.db.models.signals import post_save
from django.dispatch import receiver

classProfile(models.Model):
    user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
    bio = models.TextField(max_length=500, blank=True)
    location = models.CharField(max_length=30, blank=True)
    birth_date = models.DateField(null=True, blank=True)

@receiver(post_save, sender=User)defcreate_user_profile(sender, instance, created, **kwargs):
    if created:
        Profile.objects.create(user=instance)

@receiver(post_save, sender=User)defsave_user_profile(sender, instance, **kwargs):
    instance.profile.save()

hooking the create_user_profile and save_user_profile methods to the User model, whenever a save event occurs. This kind of signal is called post_save.

forms.py

classUserForm(forms.ModelForm):
    classMeta:
        model = Userfields= ('first_name', 'last_name', 'email')

classProfileForm(forms.ModelForm):
    classMeta:
        model = Profilefields= ('bio', 'location', 'birth_date')

views.py

@login_required@transaction.atomic
def update_profile(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        user_form = UserForm(request.POST, instance=request.user)
        profile_form = ProfileForm(request.POST, instance=request.user.profile)
        if user_form.is_valid() and profile_form.is_valid():
            user_form.save()
            profile_form.save()
            messages.success(request, _('Your profile was successfully updated!'))
            return redirect('settings:profile')
        else:
            messages.error(request, _('Please correct the error below.'))
    else:
        user_form = UserForm(instance=request.user)
        profile_form = ProfileForm(instance=request.user.profile)
    return render(request, 'profiles/profile.html', {
        'user_form': user_form,
        'profile_form': profile_form
    })

profile.html

<formmethod="post">
  {% csrf_token %}
  {{ user_form.as_p }}
  {{ profile_form.as_p }}
  <buttontype="submit">Save changes</button></form>

you can prefetch related data in a single database query:

users = User.objects.all().select_related('profile')

*You can change fields and class name instead of using Profile
