You may make a wrong understand about the view, url-dispatch, and
template. The view is used to provide methods which can be used to
output web pages. But you cann't directly use them, they should be
configured in urls.py, just like:
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
urlpatterns = patterns('',
# Example:
(r'^$', 'helloworld.index'),
)
The above means that a domain just like single http://localhost:8000
matches the rule (r'^$'), and django will invoke helloworld.index
method, helloworld is a view, and index is a method in it, just like
your code.
But if you want to access template, you should deal the template and
output the content, just like:
from django.core.extensions import render_to_response
def index(request):
return render_to_response('base', {'message': "This is from the
'simple' app."})
and your templat should be:
{{ message }}
And you also should configure the template directory in settings.py.
There is so many things need to do.
I'm writting a tutorial step by step , but it's written in Chinese, if
you can read it , just to see my blog. In that I explained a bit and a
bit.
