I have created a 'more_btn' component like this.
<div>
<a href='{% url link %}' >{{ text }}</a>
</div>
and I want to reuse this component in two-parent components like bellow.
{% include "util_components/more_btn.html" with link="job1" text="s1" %}
{% include "util_components/more_btn.html" with link="job2" text="s2" %}
The problem is that the URL block in the 'more-btn' component wants an ID, not a string.
How can I solve this?

I would like to embed a pptx that is uploaded into a folder in OneDrive within a iframe tag in a Django template. I have the urls stored in a model and saved into the SQLite database. In this sense, in the views.py file, I have the following code:
context = {
'selectedunit': selectedunit,
'url_to_be_inserted': MyModel.objects.filter(unit=selectedunit)
}
return render(request, 'web.html', context)
The code for web.html is very easy:
{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% load static %}
{% block content %}
<div class="container col-lg-8">
<div class="center">
<iframe class="center" src={{ url_to_be_inserted.url }} width="100%" height="300%" frameborder="0"/>
</div>
</div>
{% endblock %}
The result is the snapshot below:
While, I would like to embed the ppt into the web site. If I directly insert the URL, instead of using the context variable, it works. That is to say:
<iframe class="center" src="https://..." width="100%" height="300%" frameborder="0"/>
In this case, the result is as follows (ppt embedded into the Web site):
The reason why doing in this sense is because, depending on the selectedunit variable, I would like to address a different pptx with a different URL and I would like to dynamically change the pointer (as you see above by filtering the model).
How could I solve it?
Many thanks in advance
I would like to use dynamic images based on a a pk of the page.
To be clearer I have a survey app, using one question per page .. which mean that the user is presented a question he answers and is redirected to the next question. Each question has a different id and I would like to attach to each question an image.
Right now I have a static image lik that :
<div class="col-5">
<img src="{% static 'images/RightSpeech.jpg' %}" class="img-fluid" alt="Responsive image">
</div>
but I would like to make it dynamic.. I tried something like that with no success:
<div class="col-5">
<img src="{% static 'images/image{{question.pk}}.jpg' %}" class="img-fluid" alt="Responsive image">
</div>
any idea ?
The static tag doesn't really do anything more than adding the value of STATIC_URL to whatever you pass it. Instead of messing about with all these tags, you could just do this manually:
<img src="{{ STATIC_URL }}/images/image{{question.pk}}.jpg"
If for some reason the static context processor isn't activated, you can use the {% get_static_prefix %} tag in exactly the same way:
<img src="{% get_static_prefix %}/images/image{{question.pk}}.jpg"
You need to use
{% static 'images/image'|add:question.id|add:'.jpg' %}
in order to get concatenate the question PK to the image name. This just makes use of the concatenation filter |add:.
EDIT 1
If the above does not work, you can try to use the {% with %} tag, so in your case:
{% with "images/image"|add:question.id|add:".jpg" as customUrl %}
{% static customUrl %}
{% endwith %}
Hope this helps!
I am trying to implement some breadcrumbs in my templates.
I some view urls take one argument and others two.
url(r'^firstpage/(?P<arg_one>(option1|option2))/(?P<unique_identidfier>[ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890\-_]+)/', views.MyView.as_view(), name="two_arg_view"),
url(r'^secondpage/(?P<unique_identidfier>[ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890\-_]+)/', views.MySecondView.as_view(), name="one_arg_view),
I would like to pass in an array of breadcrumbs to via get_context_data, then loop over them in the template:
<div class="breadcrumbs">
{%for crumb in breadcrumbs %}
<a href="{% url crumb.url arg1 optional_arg2 %}" >{{ crumb.text }}</a> >
{% endfor %}
{{ current_page }}
</div>
Is there a way I can pass an optional number of arguments to the url template tag?
In the same way you might when calling something with *args?
What I want to do (but doesn't work) is:
<a href="{% url crumb.url *crumb.args %}" >{{ crumb.text }}</a> >
An inclusion tag will most likely do what you're looking for.
Inclusion tags can accept the current template context and you can retrieve your view values from there instead of having to manually pass them in. By including a template that contains the div, anchor tag, etc, you keep your templates simple:
{% tag_url %}
instead of having to repeat a bunch of conditional statements and loops.
I wouldn't recommend doing this sort of logic in a view, as it's not encapsulated or re-usable.
I know that it is possible to set context variables when including a Django template from another template using
{% include "default_table.html" with table_header=table_header1 table_data=table_data1 %}
or
{% with "My data" as table_data %}
{% include 'default_table.html' %}
{% endwith %}
My issue with this is that both approaches don't let me define multiline variables (unless they are based on a previous multiline variable of course).
My specific usecase is this
<!-- widget.html -->
<div class="box">
<div class="title">{{ title }}</div>
<div class="title">{{ body }}</div>
</div>
and I'd like to be able to set a longer text for the body context variable. This will make is possible for me to reuse common widget HTML in various places. Can this be done?
I've been searching a bit on http://djangosnippets.org for an über {% with ... %} template tag, but haven't found any so far.
This Django snippet kinda solves my issue: http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1860/ But I'd love to be able to set context variables instead of defining {% localblock step_ready_js %}{% endlocalblock %} in my widget HTML.
The template inheritance page on the django site doesn't really solve my problem (Django 1.2).
My base page looks like:
...
<div class="grid_12" id="content">
{% block content %}{% endblock %}
</div>
...
{% block javascript %}{% endblock %}
I have another template that defines content for these:
{% block content %}
animated sidebar
{% endblock %}
...
{% block javascript %}
alert('hello');
{% endblock %}
This is something like an animated sidebar, so I don't want to extend the base template since it's auxiliary to the main content of the page. If I just use "include", the entire thing is put where the "include" tag is placed - as a result the javascript doesn't run because it's included before one of its dependencies.
What's the best way to solve this?
EDIT
Sorry, I didn't make myself clear.
I have my content pages which render a template that extends "base.html". In "base.html" I want to include a sidebar template that needs to append blocks in "base.html". So I've tried just putting include "sidebar.html" into "base.html", but it just inserts the whole thing where the "include" tag is. What I want it to do is append the blocks in "base.html", which may themselves have been populated by "page.html".
Maybe it's important to say that "sidebar.html" is entirely static - i.e. there's no callable associated with it. So perhaps this question should really be "How can I include a static template into base.html so it will append to blocks in base.html regardless of the output of the actual view that processes the request?"
I think you mean you want to append to a block? You can put {{ block.super }} where you want the inherited content to go. e.g.:
{% block javascript %}
{{ block.super }}
alert('hello');
{% endblock %}
You should only use {% block foo %} tags to extend blocks in a base template, so I'm not clear what you mean when you say you don't want to extend it.
The code, as you've entered it, should render to
...
<div class="grid_12" id="content">
animated sidebar
</div>
...
alert(hello)
Unless you want to append the content (as in Matt's answer) it's not clear what you want to happen.
You shoud be using something like jQuery to trigger execution only after the page is fully loaded. Include jQuery library in the document header and then somewhere:
$(document).ready(function() {
//your code goes here
});
