Hello,
I am programming a small CMS on Django, I have editable pages, now I
want to add news. I have a website where I want to display these news on
every page in right/left column. I have following questions:
1.) Where is the right place to place news loader?
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS seems to be a good place and easy to
implement. Another possibility is a middleware, I feel, that it should
go there instead of TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS.
2.) If I use middleware, how do I smuggle variables into templates? It
has something to do with the request object, but I don't know how to use
it for that thing. What should I do in a middleware to have e.g {{ news
}} template variable containing last x news?
Thanks for your advices,
Martin
I used template context processors to solve this problem, it is easier to
implement now, but I will look at custom tags and cache, when I have some
time :)
But can somebody answer my second question please? I need to know how can
I transfer variables from middleware into templates.
Thanks,
Martin
