That shouldn't be a problem, after all templates are just strings as
are textfields.
If you have a model with your textfield in it as so:
class MyModel(models.Model):
template = models.TextField()
and you have a view which renders the template defined in the next
field
def my_view(request):
m = MyModel.objects.get(pk=1) # for example the first one
t = Template(m.template) #this creates a template from your string
in the model
c = Context({'form': form, etc.. #any context to go into the
template})
# now you can just return the rendered template as html
return HttpResponse(t.render(c))
For more info refer to:
