Django Mini Task — Task Manager

Time Limit: 15 minutes

​
Objective:

Build a basic Task Manager system using pure Django (no Django REST Framework). The
system should allow a logged-in user to create and view their own tasks.

🔹 1. Model
Create a Task model with the following fields:

●​ id: AutoField (primary key, default in Django)​

●​ user: ForeignKey to Django’s built-in User model​

●​ title: CharField (max_length = 255)​

●​ description: TextField (optional, blank=True)​

●​ created_at: DateTimeField (auto_now_add=True)​

🔹 2. Views
Create two views, both protected using @login_required:

a. Task List View — /tasks/

●​ Display a list of tasks belonging to the currently logged-in user.​

●​ Show only: title and created_at.​

b. Task Create View — /tasks/create/

●​ Display a form to create a new task (title, description).​


●​ On submission, assign request.user automatically to the task.​

●​ On success, redirect to task list view.​

●​ (Bonus) Show a success message using Django’s messages framework.​

🔹 3. Templates
Use simple, clean templates:

●​ task_list.html: Lists all tasks of the logged-in user.​

●​ task_form.html: Form to create a new task.​

🔹 4. URLs
Define the following URL patterns:

URL View

/tasks/ Task List View

/tasks/crea Task Create


te/ View

🔹 5. Rules
●​ Protect views using @login_required.​

●​ Users should only see their own tasks.​

●​ No edit/delete required.​

●​ Bonus: Use Django messages for success feedback.​
