Hi,
Please can anyone help with an app architecture problem I am having?
(I am quite new to Django)
I have an app which which serves up XHR requests (via YUI3 io
uitility) to urlpatterns. The views make HttpResponses using
render_to_response like so:
return render_to_response("registration/register.html", {
'form': form,
}, context_instance=RequestContext(request))
That is all fine: The html content is rendered in the relevant div
(using a YUI3 io's success callback) .
But the problem I have - and I may be thinking about this in the wrong
way - is that I also want to pick out some variables from the response
to use in my js success callback. If I wasn't using django templating
this could be straightforwardly achieved with a JSON response parsed
client side. So my difficulty is that I want both a rendered template
response and some JSON response in the same callback... I have thought
about 'enriching' the render_to_response context with these additional
variables, inserting them in hidden html fields and then querying the
dom for their values - but that feels awkward and also means the
response has to be added to the dom before the js can act on their
values.
This seems like a familiar nut that must be well documented
somewhere... :) any help, pointers very appreciated.
Thanks
Alex
