I thought I could link two apps together however I can't seem to get
this working.
I have 2 very very basic apps (news, events)
And i would like to display them both on a homepage as sort of widgets
(just showing latest 5 of each)
I have a events.html template:
[code]
<h2>5 Upcoming Events</h2>
<ul>
{% if latest_events_list %}
{% for events in latest_events_list %}
<li><b>{{ events.eventTitle }}</b><br />Date: {{ events.date|date:"d/
m/y" }}<br />Location: {{ events.location }}
<br />
Start time: {{ events.startTime|time:"P" }} </li>
Details: {{ events.description }}
{% endfor %}
</ul>
{% else %}
No events planned.
{% endif %}
</div>
<p> </p>
</div>
<div id="object">Sakushi News</div>
<div id="horimenu">
</div>
</span></div>
<div id="content">
<h2>5 Latest News Articles</h2>
<ul>
{% if latest_news %}
{% for news in latest_news_list %}
{{ news.newsTitle }}
<li><br />Date: {{ news.date|date:"d/m/y" }}<br />Author:
{{ news.author }}
<br />
{{ news.newsArticle }} </li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
{% else %}
No news articles at present.
{% endif %}
[/code]
This code shows the last 5 events, but does not show any news items.
My urls.py is:
[code]
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from sakushi.events.models import Event
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^test/', 'sakushi.events.views.events'),
# Uncomment this for admin:
(r'^admin/', include('django.contrib.admin.urls')),
)
[/code]
My events.views:
[code]
from sakushi.events.models import Event
from sakushi.news.models import News
from django.shortcuts import get_object_or_404, render_to_response
from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
def events(request):
latest_events_list = Event.objects.all().order_by('date')[:5]
return render_to_response('events.html', {'latest_events_list':
latest_events_list})
def news(request):
latest_news_list = News.objects.all().order_by('date')[:5]
return render_to_response('events.html', {'latest_news_list':
latest_news_list})
[/code]
I'm sure there is something wrong with my logic somewhere but I would
appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Duncan
