Hi Robert,
Thanks for the response!
I have practiced the guestbook app 2 times for learning, and now the
3rd time, as I'm following it for making my own app.
My data comes from some API, where in I'm passing a keyword. My
problem is, I want to use a set of template values commonly throughout
the site, no matter to what URL I'm going to. For example, if I want a
value 'site-header':'Hello!', I want it to be same on all the pages. I
have to pass it every time template.render function renders a page! I
want to do it so that I can have a templating sort of flow for the
site. Like, any where I call {{site-header}}, it should get the same
value.
And one more doubt, how to redirect to a third party site from my app?
I made a tutorial for the app I'm making, and I want to redirect
people to it for learning it. I tried this:
My has a like to my site: Learn
My main.py file:
app = webapp.WSGIApplication([ ('/', Init),
('/learn', Learn)]
class Learn(webapp.RequestHandler):
def get(self):
self.redirect('myblog.com')
This isn't working! When I click the link, I get
http://localhost:8080/myblog.com
in the address bar (I'm working locally) and I tried hard coding the
address, but it doesn't work either!
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks,
Rutwick
