With get_absolute_url() [1] we can build a URL of a model entry. The Problem is, this is not really a _complete_ URL. The protocol and domain is absent.
I implemented this: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- def get_absolute_uri(self): """ returned the complete absolute URI (with the domain/host part) """ url = self.get_absolute_url() if os.environ.get("HTTPS") == "on": protocol = "https" else: protocol = "http" domain = os.environ.get("SERVER_NAME") if not domain: domain = os.environ.get("HTTP_HOST") if not domain: # Can't build the complete uri without the domain ;( # e.g. running the django development server return url return "%s://%s%s" % (protocol, domain, url) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I think it's not a good idea to get information from os.environ. This only works with Apache. The better way is to use request.META or directly request.build_absolute_uri(). But IMHO i can't get the request object in the model. I can't use Site.objects.get_current().domain [2], because i didn't use the Site framework. And this is not a good idea: The protocoll is always "http". Any better idea?
