I am currently running into the above error when trying to print some client details to a CSV file.
I do understand what the error is stating, however, I don’t see where the error occurs in my code.
Please see the below code:
Views.py function:
def printViewCustomers(reports_pk):
pkForm = get_object_or_404(SettingsClass, pk=reports_pk)
complexName = pkForm.Complex
connect = pyodbc.connect('DRIVER={SQL Server};'
'DATABASE=' + complexName + ';'
)
viewCustomersSQL = ' Select Account , Name , Contact_Person , Telephone , Telephone2 , Fax1 , Fax2, EMail from dbo.Client Where DCLink <> 1 '
cursor = connect.cursor();
cursor.execute(viewCustomersSQL);
viewCustomersData = cursor.fetchall()
cursor.close()
viewCustomers = []
for row in viewCustomersData:
rdict = {}
rdict["Account"] = row[0]
rdict["Name"] = row[1]
rdict["Contact_Person"] = row[2]
rdict["Telephone"] = row[3]
rdict["Telephone2"] = row[4]
rdict["Fax1"] = row[5]
rdict["Fax2"] = row[6]
rdict["Email"] = row[7]
viewCustomers.append(rdict)
# Starting CSV
response = HttpResponse(content_type='text/csv')
response['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment; filename=" ' + complexName + ' Customer Details.csv"'
writer = csv.writer(response)
writer.writerow([
'Unit',
'Name',
'Contact Person',
'Telephone 1',
'Telephone 2',
'E-mail'
])
for x in viewCustomers:
writer.writerow([
x["Account"],
x["Name"],
x["Contact_Person"],
x["Telephone"],
x["Telephone2"],
x["Email"]
])
HTML refference to the function:
{% extends "main/base.html"%}
{% block content%}
<h1 style=" text-align: center">Reports</h1>
<hr>
<br>
{% for x in model %}
<div class="row mb-3">
<div class="col">
<a href="{% url 'DisplayCustomers' reports_pk=x.pk %}" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action list-group-item-primary">{{ x.Complex }} Details (Web View)</a>
</div>
<div class="col">
<a href="{% url 'printViewCustomers' reports_pk=x.pk %}" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action list-group-item-success">Print {{ x.Complex }} Details to csv</a>
</div>
</div>
<br>
{% endfor %}
{% endblock %}

As per the above code, everything seems to be in order compared to other functions where I have printed CSV’s
>Solution :
The first argument to your function printViewCustomers must be request. Just update your views.py to
def printViewCustomers(request, reports_pk):
pkForm = get_object_or_404(SettingsClass, pk=reports_pk)
complexName = pkForm.Complex
