Display query string values ​​in django templates

I wanted to print some success messages from the get method back to the index (home.html) ie template page using a query string. I have redirected the index page with

    return HttpResponseRedirect("/mysite/q="+successfailure)

Now I wanted to print the success of the line along with other content in the index file (or the template file /home.html file).

I was looking for a solution and found that "django.core.context_processors.request context" should be added to the settings. But I couldn't find a place to add it. I am currently using python 2.7 and django 1.4.3.

I have also tried using

    render_to_response("home.html",{'q':successfailure})

however the result is printed on the current page (addContent.html- which I don't want), but I want to send url to '/ mysite /' and print the result there.

Please suggest a suitable solution. Thanks in advance.

these are the default context processors: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/settings/#template-context-processors

TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
    "django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth",
    "django.core.context_processors.debug",
    "django.core.context_processors.i18n",
    "django.core.context_processors.media",
    "django.core.context_processors.static",
    "django.core.context_processors.tz",
    "django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages",
    #add this
    "django.core.context_processors.request" 
)

if it is not in your settings than you have not overridden yet. do it now.

then in your template, something like this:



{% if request.GET.q %}<div>{{ request.GET.q }}</div>{% endif %}

also, im noticing in your link url that you are not using the querystring statement ?

, it should be:

return HttpResponseRedirect("/mysite/?q="+successfailure)

I'm not sure I understand this question, but you can access the querystring in your view using request.GET

.

So, you can customize the view that displays home.html by adding the successfailure variable to the context. Something like -

def home_view(request):
    #....
    successfailure = request.GET
    return render(request, 'home.html', {'succsessfailure': successfailure.iteritems()})


Then iterate over the variables in your template

{% for key, value in successfailure %}
    <p>{{ key }} {{ value }}</p>
{% endfor %}

If there is a specific key in the request, you can get the value with request.GET['your_key']

and drop the call to iteritems()

(along with the iteration in the template).
