Hi This is my Project I needed define two get_absolute_url in my project

models.py

def get_absolute_url(self):
    return reverse("cv:resume_detial", args={self.id, self.slug})

urls.py

path('resume-detial/<int:resume_id>/<slug:resume_slug>', views.ResumeDetialView.as_view(), name="resume_detial"),

views.py

class ResumeDetialView(View):
    template_name = 'cv/resume-detial.html'
    
    def get(self, request, resume_id, resume_slug):
        resumes = ResumeDetial.objects.get(pk=resume_id, slug=resume_slug)
        return render(request, self.template_name, {'resumes':resumes})

    def get(self, request, project_id, projects_slug):
        projects = ResumeDetial.objects.get(pk=project_id, slug=projects_slug)
        return render(request, self.template_name, {"projects":projects})

ResumeDetial matching query does not exist.

I am a beginner and thank you for your help

>Solution :

You are doing ResumeDetial.objects.get(pk=project_id, slug=projects_slug)
while the ResumeDetial with these criteria doesn’t exist. You can use filter to search for ResumeDetial’s with the given criteria, in case no results are found, it will return an empty list.

So, you can change this part of the code:

    def get(self, request, project_id, projects_slug):
        projects = ResumeDetial.objects.filter(pk=project_id, slug=projects_slug)
        return render(request, self.template_name, {"projects":projects})
