Having been a PHP programmer for several years and really loving it,
I've heard tons and tons of great things about Python. With this, I
decided to really try out django and the following link is what I've
started out with:
http://fallingbullets.com/blog/2006/aug/06/wordpress-clone-27-seconds-part-1-40/
Outputting the blogging information works flawlessly in the /blog/
section and I've had no problems in this area what so ever. The
problem lies in creating the home page.
I added the following into my urls.py:
home_dict = {
'template': 'home.html'
}
and then:
# Homepage:
(r'^$', 'django.views.generic.simple.direct_to_template', home_dict),
>From there, I've created my homepage template to look exactly as I
would like it to look, now it just needs some content. In PHP, this
is simple, you just query the database for the first blog post, and
other items.
How do you go about querying the database when you are not inside of
one of the "apps" you've created in django? Do I need to create
another app or parse it in via XML, or there an easier way?
Thanks for all of the help!
