Hi all,
i am currently reading the django book and following the examples step by
step.
I have a view defined as follows:
from django.http import Http404, HttpResponse
import datetime
#def myhome(request):
# message = """<html>
# <head><title>MY HOME</title></head>
# <body bgcolor='yellow'>
# <center>
# <h1><span style='color:green'>This is my
</span><span style='color:white'>way of</span><span style='color:green'>
saying welcome!</span></h1>
# </center>
# </body>
# </html>
# """
# return HttpResponse(message)
#
#def hello(request):
# return HttpResponse("Hello World")
#
#def current_time(request):
# now = datetime.datetime.now()
# html = "<html><body>It is now %s.</body></html>" % now
# return HttpResponse(html)
def hours_ahead(request, offset):
try:
offset = int(offset)
except ValueError:
raise Http404()
dt = datetime.datetime.now() + datetime.timedelta(hours=offset)
html = "<html><body>In %s hour(s), it will be %s.</body></html>" %
(offset, dt)
return HttpResponse(html)
(All the commented area work just fine )
and I have a url.py like this:
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from mysite.views import *
from django.contrib import admin
admin.autodiscover()
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^$', myhome),
(r'^polls/', include('mysite.polls.urls')),
(r'^hello/$', hello),
(r'^time/$', current_time),
(r'^time/plus/\d{1,2}/$', hours_ahead),
)
when i try to run localhost:8000/time/plus/3, I get the following error:
TypeError at /time/plus/4/
hours_ahead() takes exactly 2 arguments (1 given)
Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://localhost:8000/time/plus/4/
Django Version: 1.2.1
Exception Type: TypeError
Exception Value:
hours_ahead() takes exactly 2 arguments (1 given)
Exception Location:

Server time: Fri, 18 Feb 2011 15:51:57 +0100
My understanding of the error message is that I supplied, 1 argument when
the view function, hours_ahead was expecting 2 but really, i don't have a
hang of where to put the other argument. I am following the examples in the
book.
I must be missing something, kindly help me out.
thank you.
