Django application that let's you work in your templates apart from having or not the corresponding views created.

Django application that let’s you work in your templates apart from having or not the corresponding views created.

Features

• Design your template without having the corresponding view created.

• Pass data to your template via the url.

Example

In your urls.py:

if settings.DEBUG:
    urlpatterns += patterns('', ('^_blackhole/', include('blackhole.urls'))

With that in place you should be able to access the url: /_blackhole/templates/<template name>/?<template data>

Let’s say you have the following template:

myapp/
  templates/
     404.html
     myapp/
       hello.jinja

You can access those templates through the urls:

/_blackhole/templates/404.html

and

/_blackhole/templates/myapp/hello.jinja

If you have a “message” variable in “hello.jinja” you can set that variable with:

/_blackhole/templates/myapp/hello.jinja?message=hola

You can also set nested values. Let’s say you have the variable “person.name” in “hello.jinja”, you can set that variable with:

/_blackhole/templates/myapp/hello.jinja?person.name=john

Installation

To install, simply:

$ pip install django-blackhole

Or, directly from the main repository:

$ pip install -e git+https://github.com/ikame/django-blackhole.git#egg=blackhole
