Refactor Django FormView Context
I currently email myself submitted form information as an admin so I can contact a customer. I could not figure out how to simply pass all of the form variables to the Django Email Template. I instead had to define the individually. Is there a way to pass all of the context variables so I don't have define each and every one of them?
form_class = CustomProjectBuildRequestForm
success_url = reverse_lazy('home')
success_message = "Form successfully submitted!"
def form_valid(self, form):
form.save()
context = {
'first_name': form.cleaned_data.get('first_name'),
'last_name': form.cleaned_data.get('last_name'),
'email': form.cleaned_data.get('email'),
'phone': form.cleaned_data.get('phone_number'),
'zip_code': form.cleaned_data.get('zip_code'),
'project_title': form.cleaned_data.get('project_name'),
'project_description': form.cleaned_data.get('project_description'),
'contact_method': form.cleaned_data.get('preferred_contact_method'),
}
template = get_template('request-custom-project/email_template.html')
content = template.render(context)
send_mail(
'New Custom Project Request',
html_message=content,
message=content,
from_email=context['email'],
recipient_list=['test@gmail.com'],
fail_silently=False,
)
return super(PMPIndex, self).form_valid(form)
python django sendmail formview

from.cleaned_data should be a simple dictionary (or a variant like OrderDict). The template expects a dict-like object as context. Hence you could simply use cleaned_data as context: content = template.render(form.cleaned_data).
If you need some additional values in the template, I suggest the following
context = {
'some': 'extra',
'values': 1,
}
context.update(form.cleaned_data)
content = template.render(context)
