Using the 'for' loop in django tags for 'ForeignKey'

My django loop in the templates does not work correctly. Why, because of me, everything looks good?
Any help will be appreciated.



My models.py



class Tags(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=10)

class Person(models.Model):
keywords = models.ForeignKey(Tags, on_delete=models.CASCADE)


My views.py



def person_detail(request, user_id):
person = get_object_or_404(Person, pk=user_id)
context = {'person': person}
return render(request, 'person_detail.html', context)


My templates.html



{% for tag in person.tags %}
<span class="badge badge-lg badge-pill badge-info"># {{ person.tags.name } </span>
{% endfor %}


This gives no results even though there is data in the database.

    It doesn't matter @JohnGordon , it's not possible to loop over it, the person.keywords will just return an instance of Tags, you could use ManyToManyField, or you may use the ForeignKey field in Tags model instead

You are doing it backwards. Your Tags model should have a foreign key to Person, not the other way around. For example:



class Person(models.Model):
...

class Tag(models.Model):
person = models.ForeignKey(Person, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
name = models.CharField(max_length=10)


Note that I've also renamed your Tags model to Tag as it makes sense to name models singular.



Then you can write the following:



{% for tag in person.tag_set.all %}
...
{% endfor %}
