24,260 PointsStep 4/4: Hmm, didn't get the right success message from `ArticleCreate`
Everything seems to be fine. I compared my code with the code of the previous video, but I just can't find the mistake :(
from django.contrib.auth.mixins import LoginRequiredMixin
from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse_lazy
from django.views import generic
from . import mixins
from . import models
class ArticleList(generic.ListView):
model = models.Article
class ArticleDetail(generic.DeleteView, generic.DetailView):
model = models.Article
template_name = 'articles/article_detail.html'
class ArticleCreate(LoginRequiredMixin, mixins.SuccessMessageMixin, generic.CreateView):
success_message = 'Article created!'
fields = ('title', 'body', 'author', 'published')
model = models.Article
class ArticleUpdate(LoginRequiredMixin, mixins.SuccessMessageMixin, generic.UpdateView):
fields = ('title', 'body', 'author', 'published')
model = models.Article
def get_success_message(self):
obj = self.get_object()
return "{} updated!".format(obj.title)
class ArticleDelete(LoginRequiredMixin, generic.DeleteView):
model = models.Article
success_url = reverse_lazy('articles:list')
class ArticleSearch(generic.ListView):
model = models.Article
def get_queryset(self):
qs = super().get_queryset()
term = self.kwargs.get('term')
if term:
return qs.filter(body__icontains=term)
return qs.none()
from django.contrib import messages
class SuccessMessageMixin():
success_message = ""
def get_success_message(self):
return self.success_message
def form_valid(self, form):
messages.success(self.reuqest, self.get_success_message())
return super().form_valid(form)

In the form_valid method change "self.reuqest" to "self.request"
The way the tests were written, it would pass step 3/4, but the typo manifests itself on 4/4
