Returning more than one field from Django model

How would one go about returning more than one field from a Django model declaration?

For instance: I have defined:

class C_I(models.Model):
    c_id = models.CharField('c_id', max_length=12)
    name = models.CharField('name', max_length=100)
    def __str__(self):
        return '%s' % (self.name)

which I can use, when called in a views.py function to return 

    {{ c_index }}

        {% for c in c_index %}

            <div class='c-index-item' c-id=''>

                <p>{{ c.name }}</p>

            </div>

        {% endfor %}

from a template. This is being called in my views.py like so:

c_index = C_I.objects.all()

t = get_template('index.html')

c  = Context({'c_index': c_index})

html = t.render(c)

How would I also include the c_id defined in the model above, so that I can include {{c.name}} and {{c.c_id}} in my template? When I remove the str method, I appear to get all of the results, however, it just returns blank entries in the template and will not let me reference the individual components of the object.

What you have is fine. Your template should be:

    {% for c in c_index %}
        <div class='c-index-item' c-id='{{ c.c_id }}'>
            <p>{{ c.name }}</p>
        </div>
    {% endfor %}
