Django unsupported operand type(s) for +=: 'int' and 'method'

Question

I was trying to implement a simple logic in my e-commerce website where I will be calculating total cart price by looping through orders and getting their price with the help of get_final_price but suddenly this error occurred so please help me

Function due to which error is occurring

def get_total(self):
    total_sum = 0
    for order_item in self.items.all():
        total_sum += order_item.get_final_price()
    return total_sum

Error that occured

Answer 1

I got this error as well, because I never addded @property

Remember to add @property like this:

@property
def get_final_price(self):
    if self.item.discount_price:
        return self.get_total_discount_item_price
    return self.get_total_item_price

Answer 2

In your OrderItem class, your get_final_price() method is returning a function, not a value. Instead of returning a function, you need to return a value like this:

def get_final_price(self):
    if self.item.discount_price:
        discount_price = self.get_total_discount_item_price()
        return discount_price
    item_price = self.get_total_item_price()
    return item_price
