Thank you all for your suggestions.
I did not explain clearly what I was trying to do.
So here's another eg. (with simpler unworkable syntax)
url(add/complete, direct_to_template, template=message.html,
name=add_complete,
extra_context={
title:Add Complete,
url:[reverse(add_item), reverse(view_item), reverse(edit_item)]
}),
url(remove/complete, direct_to_template, template=message.html,
name=remove_complete,
extra_context={
title:Remove Complete,
url:[reverse(remove_item), reverse(list_items)]
}),
So these are pages where you get redirected to, when adding is
complete, removing is complete, etc. and they all look pretty much the
same except with different title and different amount/types of links.
This way there's no need for a new view and a new template. Just
changing a couple of lines in urls.py
But I do realise that reverse(edit_item) and reverse(view_item) won't
work, because there's no ID specified and even so, direct_to_template
won't know what to do with it.
So I ended up creating my own custom view which has reverse,
direct_to_template, and even return json, in it to do what kinda
wanted to do but unfortunately has made many of my apps less portable.
I still need to account for reverse(edit_item) if i wish to have that
in the add complete page.
Anyway that's what I'm trying to do, making coding lazier.
Further suggestions or no, thank you.
