Generic editing views
=====================
The views described here provide a foundation for editing content.
.. class:: django.views.generic.edit.FormView
A view that displays a form. On error, redisplays the form with validation
errors; on success, redirects to a new URL.
**Ancestors (MRO)**
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.FormView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.base.TemplateResponseMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.BaseFormView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.FormMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.ProcessFormView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.base.View`
.. class:: django.views.generic.edit.CreateView
A view that displays a form for creating an object, redisplaying the form
with validation errors (if there are any) and saving the object.
**Ancestors (MRO)**
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.CreateView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.detail.SingleObjectTemplateResponseMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.base.TemplateResponseMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.BaseCreateView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.ModelFormMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.FormMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.detail.SingleObjectMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.ProcessFormView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.base.View`
.. class:: django.views.generic.edit.UpdateView
A view that displays a form for editing an existing object, redisplaying
the form with validation errors (if there are any) and saving changes to
the object. This uses a form automatically generated from the object's
model class (unless a form class is manually specified).
**Ancestors (MRO)**
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.UpdateView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.detail.SingleObjectTemplateResponseMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.base.TemplateResponseMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.BaseUpdateView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.ModelFormMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.FormMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.detail.SingleObjectMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.ProcessFormView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.base.View`
.. class:: django.views.generic.edit.DeleteView
A view that displays a confirmation page and deletes an existing object.
The given object will only be deleted if the request method is ``POST``. If
this view is fetched via ``GET``, it will display a confirmation page that
should contain a form that POSTs to the same URL.
**Ancestors (MRO)**
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.DeleteView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.detail.SingleObjectTemplateResponseMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.base.TemplateResponseMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.BaseDeleteView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.edit.DeletionMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.detail.BaseDetailView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.detail.SingleObjectMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.base.View`
**Notes**
* The delete confirmation page displayed to a GET request uses a
``template_name_suffix`` of ``'_confirm_delete'``.
