Hi,
I have a view called home that searches for a user in my UserProfile model
and returns the username. I add this
username to the context variable and try to show it in the template. Pretty
straightforward and simple, right?
Well, here is my code first :
def home(request):
var = ""
n = None
if request.method == u'GET':
GET = request.GET
if GET.has_key(u'name'):
n = GET[u'name']
try:
user = UserProfile.objects.get(facebookId = n)
user.is_active = True
user.last_login = datetime.now()
var = user.facebookId
user.save()
print var
#on log out
if GET.has_key(u'logout'):
print 'im logging out!'
user = UserProfile.objects.get(facebookId = n)
user.is_active = False
user.last_login = datetime.now()
user.save()
except:
user = UserProfile(facebookId=n,playedHours=0,
is_active=True)
user.save()
print var
context = {'nom':var}
return
render_to_response('home.html',context,context_instance=RequestContext(request))
and in my template I have something as simple as :
{{ nom }}
However, when I replace *var* with a "bla bla bla" for example, it shows on
my template, but when I pass a variable name to the
context, it doesn't show ! I also can see the *var* value on my console
(notice i'm using print twice or thrice in the code)
am I doing anything wrong here?
Thanks !
