Yes, I suppose I thought Django had to use wsgi to process requests, I didn't
know there were 'two' options here. Does your example represent one or the
other?
My mistake, I should have mentioned I was using Django 1.11 so I had to use url
instead of path in urls.py. Below, I have tried to provide as much information
as possible.
I tried with just the files you provided with slight modifications:
project_folder/app/views.py:
from django.http import HttpResponse
def cookies(request):
return HttpResponse(repr(request.COOKIES),
'text/plain; charset=utf-8')
def index(request):
print 'INDEX: '
print request.COOKIE
return HttpResponse('this is the response')
project_folder/app/urls.py:
from django.conf.urls import url
from . import views
urlpatterns = [
url('cookies', views.cookies),
url('index', views.index),
]
project_folder/app/wsgi.py
def application(environ, start_response):
start_response('200 OK',
[('Content-Type', 'text/plain; charset=utf-8')])
return [environ.get('HTTP_COOKIE', '').encode('utf-8')]
>From the project folder, I ran 'python manage.py runserver'
Cleared all cookies in the browser, and went to localhost:8000/cookies which
loaded with no error in the console or browser. No cookies were created in the
browser preferences.
I tried refreshing the browser for localhost:8000/index but still no cookies.
Also, for views.py, the print statement 'INDEX: ' did not appear in the
console, nor did the http response string I returned (in either browser or
console). So something is not getting processed right. In my previous attempts
(to your example code) I had no issue rendering templates and html. The only
thing that didn't seem to work were the cookies.
Console Output:
