Good Day,
As a part of a project I want to create a single page that has a number
of different utilities on it. One of those is a dice roller. Ultimately
I'd like to be able to type in the number of dice and number of sides,
click a button, and return the result on the page.
I understand you cannot pass arguments from a template without creating
custom tags (I think). So, ignore that aspect for now.
For now, if someone could just point me in the right direction on how to
call a method from a template and return a result.
Do I want to create a view as such (assume I have a Class for making
dice rolls):
def Dice_Roll(request):
roll = Roll(3, 8)
total = roll.output()
return render_to_response('utils/diceroll.html', {'total': total})
And call it from the template?
Or, am I going about this all wrong since this page doesn't have dynamic
or database data? Would a static HTML page work better?
Ah-ha! I see I should use Flatpages, most likely. But, I'm not sure that
solves my problem since it would still use templates and would still
have to call a method.
Thanks, and hope this wasn't too rambling,
Brian
