You could create a custom absolute_url tag whose structure is
something like this:
from django.template.defaultags import URLNode
class AbsoluteURLNode(URLNode):
def render(self, context):
url = super(AbsoluteURLNode, self).render(context)
# prepend your protocol and hostname to
# the relative url here
return url
def absolute_url(parser, token):
# copy the entire django.template.defaultags.url method
# here and change the last line to
return AbsoluteURLNode(viewname, args, kwargs, asvar)
absolute_url = register.tag(absolute_url)
