how to loop through httprequest post variables in python
request.POST
is a dictionary-like object containing all given HTTP POST parameters.
When you loop through request.POST
, you only get the keys.
for key in request.POST: print(key) value = request.POST[key] print(value)
To retrieve the keys and values together, use the items
method.
for key, value in request.POST.items(): print(key, value)
Note that request.POST
can contain multiple items for each key. If you are expecting multiple items for each key, you can use lists
, which returns all values as a list.
for key, values in request.POST.lists(): print(key, values)
