=========================
|
||
|
Django shortcut functions
|
||
|
=========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
The package ``django.shortcuts`` collects helper functions and classes that
|
||
|
"span" multiple levels of MVC. In other words, these functions/classes
|
||
|
introduce controlled coupling for convenience's sake.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``render_to_response()``
|
||
|
========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
``django.shortcuts.render_to_response`` renders a given template with a given
|
||
|
context dictionary and returns an ``HttpResponse`` object with that rendered
|
||
|
text.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Required arguments
|
||
|
------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
``template``
|
||
|
The full name of a template to use.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Optional arguments
|
||
|
------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
``dictionary``
|
||
|
A dictionary of values to add to the template context. By default, this
|
||
|
is an empty dictionary. If a value in the dictionary is callable, the
|
||
|
view will call it just before rendering the template.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``context_instance``
|
||
|
The context instance to render the template with. By default, the template
|
||
|
will be rendered with a ``Context`` instance (filled with values from
|
||
|
``dictionary``). If you need to use :ref:`context processors
|
||
|
<subclassing-context-requestcontext>`, render the template with a
|
||
|
``RequestContext`` instance instead. Your code might look something like
|
||
|
this::
|
||
|
|
||
|
return render_to_response('my_template.html',
|
||
|
my_data_dictionary,
|
||
|
context_instance=RequestContext(request))
|
||
|
|
||
|
``mimetype``
|
||
|
**New in Django development version:** The MIME type to use for the
|
||
|
resulting document. Defaults to the value of the ``DEFAULT_CONTENT_TYPE``
|
||
|
setting.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Example
|
||
|
-------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The following example renders the template ``myapp/index.html`` with the
|
||
|
MIME type ``application/xhtml+xml``::
|
||
|
|
||
|
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
|
||
|
|
||
|
def my_view(request):
|
||
|
# View code here...
|
||
|
return render_to_response('myapp/index.html', {"foo": "bar"},
|
||
|
mimetype="application/xhtml+xml")
|
||
|
|
||
|
This example is equivalent to::
|
||
|
|
||
|
from django.http import HttpResponse
|
||
|
from django.template import Context, loader
|
||
|
|
||
|
def my_view(request):
|
||
|
# View code here...
|
||
|
t = loader.get_template('myapp/template.html')
|
||
|
c = Context({'foo': 'bar'})
|
||
|
r = HttpResponse(t.render(c),
|
||
|
mimetype="application/xhtml+xml")
|
||
|
|
||
|
``get_object_or_404``
|
||
|
=====================
|
||
|
|
||
|
``django.shortcuts.get_object_or_404`` calls
|
||
|
:meth:`~django.db.models.QuerySet.get()` on a given model manager, but it raises
|
||
|
``django.http.Http404`` instead of the model's ``DoesNotExist`` exception.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Required arguments
|
||
|
------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
``klass``
|
||
|
A ``Model``, ``Manager`` or ``QuerySet`` instance from which to get the
|
||
|
object.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``**kwargs``
|
||
|
Lookup parameters, which should be in the format accepted by ``get()`` and
|
||
|
``filter()``.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Example
|
||
|
-------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The following example gets the object with the primary key of 1 from
|
||
|
``MyModel``::
|
||
|
|
||
|
from django.shortcuts import get_object_or_404
|
||
|
|
||
|
def my_view(request):
|
||
|
my_object = get_object_or_404(MyModel, pk=1)
|
||
|
|
||
|
This example is equivalent to::
|
||
|
|
||
|
from django.http import Http404
|
||
|
|
||
|
def my_view(request):
|
||
|
try:
|
||
|
my_object = MyModel.objects.get(pk=1)
|
||
|
except MyModel.DoesNotExist:
|
||
|
raise Http404
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note: As with ``get()``, an ``MultipleObjectsReturned`` exception will be
|
||
|
raised if more than one object is found.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``get_list_or_404``
|
||
|
===================
|
||
|
|
||
|
``django.shortcuts.get_list_or_404`` returns the result of
|
||
|
:meth:`~django.db.models.QuerySet.filter()` on a given model manager, raising
|
||
|
``django.http.Http404`` if the resulting list is empty.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Required arguments
|
||
|
------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
``klass``
|
||
|
A ``Model``, ``Manager`` or ``QuerySet`` instance from which to get the
|
||
|
object.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``**kwargs``
|
||
|
Lookup parameters, which should be in the format accepted by ``get()`` and
|
||
|
``filter()``.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Example
|
||
|
-------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The following example gets all published objects from ``MyModel``::
|
||
|
|
||
|
from django.shortcuts import get_list_or_404
|
||
|
|
||
|
def my_view(request):
|
||
|
my_objects = get_list_or_404(MyModel, published=True)
|
||
|
|
||
|
This example is equivalent to::
|
||
|
|
||
|
from django.http import Http404
|
||
|
|
||
|
def my_view(request):
|
||
|
my_objects = MyModel.objects.filter(published=True)
|
||
|
if not my_objects:
|
||
|
raise Http404
