Is it possible to call as_view from a controller?

Question

Django

Is it possible to call as_view() of a class from a controller?
I need to pass a variable that is initialized in the controller.

This is what routing looks like

urlpatterns = [
    path('form/check/', room_check, name='room_check'),
    path('contact/', BookWizard.as_view(FORMS, initial_dict=initial)),
]

BookWizard - a class inherited from SessionWizardView from the formtools module

Next is the controller piece where the variable is created

initial = {
                    '0': {'check_in_date': check_in_date,
                          'date_of_eviction': date_of_eviction,
                          'category': category,
                          'number_of_adults': number_of_adults,
                          'number_of_children': number_of_children}}

                return redirect(BookWizard.as_view(FORMS, initial_dict=initial))

As a result, I get the following error:


Maybe there is another way to pass a variable?

Answer 1

urls.py

...
path('contact/', BookWizard.as_view(FORMS, initial_dict=initial), name='contact'),
...

views.py

from django.urls import reverse
...
url_contact=reverse('contact')
return redirect(reverse)
