Hi. Sorry to botther the group again. I'm working through the Weblog
example in 'Practical Django Projects'. Yet again, reverse URL lookup
errors prove to be the hardest to debug. In class Entry I have
defined
def get_absolute_url(self):
return "/weblog/%s/%s/" % (self.pub_date.strftime("%Y/%m/%d"),
self.slug)
(Not good style, I know, but you have to start somewhere.)
In template entry_archive.html, I've tried the following three ways of
getting the URL for a particular entry:
<p><a href="{% url entry.get_absolute_url %}">Read full entry...</
a></p>
<p><a href="{% url entry_detail entry.pub_date|date:"y/m/
d",entry.slug %}">Read full entry...</a></p>
<p><a href="/weblog/{{ entry.pub_date|date:"Y/m/d" }}/
{{ entry.slug }}/">Read full entry...</a></p>
The first of these fails with the error message:
TemplateSyntaxError at /weblog/
Caught an exception while rendering: Reverse for
'weblog.entry.get_absolute_url' not found.
The second fails with a similar entry. But the third method works.
(I know it's bad style - hence my question.)
So can anyone explain what I am doing wrong, please?
I have defined the app Coltrane at the same level in the file system
as the project Weblog. Is it significant that the error message
refers ti weblog.entry and not coltrane.entry? That also looks wrong
to me.
This is with version 1.0-beta_1-SVN-8430.
Thanks.
Rodney
