Are you sure that your indentation are correct?

Also your
"import .models"
I thought it was
from django.db import models
without a "."
after that do this
data = models.Record()

If your controller was Create() function. Where did you call it?

instead of this
data.name = request.POST.get("name" )
do this
data.name = request.POST.["name" ]

remove the get from the rest

What of your models.py, that's usually the main thing when it comes to the database, also did you perform your migrations successfully?

You can also import anything from models into views, by using .models, because the models.py is already in same directory as views.py.
l think he needs to have a models.py file

this is my mode.py
class Record (models.Model):
id = models.IntegerField(default=0, primary_key=True)
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
product = models.CharField(max_length=100)
price = models.CharField(max_length=100)
description = models.CharField(max_length=100)

price = models.CharField(max_length=100)
description = models.CharField(max_length=100)

What error does it give you exactly, can you screenshot it? Also the name of your class is Records, but in your views.py file, you wrote import Record. You missed the s in Records.

Thanks. Let me try it

No error. It's running fine but when I check my
db manage.py shell I will see empty dict

on my http status I see 200, but no commit message

[quote author=kensmoney post=80463185][/quote]
Also change import Record in views .py, to import Records. Then data=Records()

ok then try to query the data from the ipython shell, so you could easily change the format in your view.py into a dictionary, something of this nature.....

data={"posts": Post.objects all()}

return render(request, "html/home.html" , data)

Thank you all for your contributions. Problem solved........

Oh! Sorry about not being able to reach me. Ok so we are floating some micro finance bank, and are looking at getting an independent person to look at the core application for us , for viability as we are looking at integrating with some ancillary programs for value addition.
