I created model with my posts. file blog/models.py:
import datetime
from ckeditor.fields import RichTextField
from django.db import models
class Post(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=250)
content = RichTextField()
date = models.DateField(default=datetime.date.today)
and in db i has this record:
<p>First paragraph</p>
<p>Second paragraph</p>
<p>Third paragraph</p>
<p>etc</p>
<p>...</p>
How I can get result First paragraph ONLY
You could work with BeautifulSoup and make a property that will return the HTML content of the first paragraph. You first install beautifulsoup with:
pip3 install beautifulsoup4then we can define a property that implements logic to extract the first <p> tag:
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
class Post(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=250)
content = RichTextField()
date = models.DateField(auto_now_add=True)
def first_paragraph(self):
bs = BeautifulSoup(self.content)
return str(bs.find('p'))
