How do you actually use post_ajax()? about django-braces HOT 4 CLOSED

https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/views/generic/edit.py#L204
https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/views/generic/edit.py#L163

you need something like
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/class-based-views/generic-display/#adding-extra-context

and

    success_url = reverse_lazy('foos:list')

here is no sense for lazy

Hmm, so I'm better off not using braces?

I was just trying to make a view that responds to both a normal post request and an ajax post request. The code example I linked to from the django site works well but it's pretty verbose if I want to manually include only a white list of fields.

post_ajax, by default, just calls super on post. Your example completely overrides what happens in post in a CreateView so, yes, it throws an error about self.object not existing because you haven't instantiated anything.

You're probably best off either duplicating what happens in CreateView.post or calling super on post_ajax so you have an instance hanging around that you can use in your custom view.

We'll create a ticket to expand the documentation on the AJAX Response mixin.

Can we get a link to some of that Ajax Response documentation?
