You need to add an entry in your settings.py for
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS, which will basically point to a function
which will put your data in a variable accessible to your template.
I basically have a variable that stores my site root url, so in a
utility file I have, I defined this function:
def siteroot(request):
return "someurl"
Then in my settings.py I have a line:
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS =
('myproject.myapp.myutilfile.siteroot',"django.core.context_processors.request",)
Now in my template, I can access the variable by saying {{ siteroot }}
