Sending Checkbox Array From Js To Django Views

I'm confused about how to do it via Ajax or Json, but how can I send the selection array (curCheck) on-click to Django views and receive it as a python array javascript document.ge

Solution 1:

For getting the selected checkbox values and sending as an array using ajax you can use jquery like this:

consider you have multiple checkboxes and a button.

<input type="checkbox" name="imageName">
<input type="checkbox" name="imageName">
.......
<button id="deletePhoto">Delete</button>

after selecting multiple checkbox values click on this button. On clicking the below jquery will be triggered to make an arrya of selected checkbox values.

//jquery for getting the selelcted checkbox values 

  $(document).on("click","#deletePhoto",function(){

    var favorite = [];//define array

    $.each($("input[name='imageName']:checked"), function(){            
        favorite.push($(this).val());
    });

    alert("Photo Selected: " + favorite.join(", "));

    if(favorite.length == 0){
      alert("Select Photo to delete");
      returnfalse;
    }

    //ajax for deleting the multiple selelcted photos
    $.ajax({type: "GET",
    url: "/olx/deletePhotoFromEdit",
    data:{
      favorite:favorite
    },
    success: function(){
     // put more stuff here as per your requirement
    });

   }
    });

});

In the view you can get the array like this:

selected_photo = request.GET.getlist('favorite[]')
