JSON serializing issue #197

Closed AndrewSaltz closed 7 years ago

AndrewSaltz commented 7 years ago

I apologize if any of this is wrong, I'm somewhat new.

I wrote a Django web app that works nicely. I used Watson as my search app, and that also went nicely. But when I tried to add an object within my app - either through the user interface or the admin. The error is " is not JSON serializable" , and the traceback leads to Watson. I tested this by removing my models from apps.py and everything worked again.

I did some reading on serializing, but I don't really use JSON. I also ran across this issue, which was quite over my head, although I'm happy to learn. I would appreciate if you could provide any help or point me in the right direction.

Here's the model that's giving Watson trouble:

class Teams(models.Model):
    team = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
    sport = models.ForeignKey(Sports, models.DO_NOTHING, blank=True, null=True)
    division = models.CharField(max_length=225, blank=True, null=True)
    school = models.ForeignKey(School, models.DO_NOTHING, blank=True, null=True)
    coach = models.CharField(max_length=225, blank=True, null=True)
    nickname = models.CharField(max_length=225, blank=True, null=True)
    win = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True, default=0)
    loss = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True, default=0)
    tie = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True, default=0)
    pic = VersatileImageField(upload_to='teampics/', blank=True, default='/teampics/emptyfield.jpg')

    class Meta:
        db_table = 'teams'
    def __str__(self):
        return '%s %s' % (self.school, self.sport)

Thank you!

Any fields you list in store when you call watson.register(store=...) must be JSON serializable.

For most cases, you don't need to add any fields to store, unless you need access to them via SearchEntry.meta in your search views.
