Let me start by saying that I am new to Django, and I understand that this seems easy (and I hope so).
I am following a tutorial that takes me through the basic setup of a simple Django site, and I found myself stuck at the point where I just call for a new look, I just added in the tutorial (for those who are interested, the tutorial is here https: / /overiq.com/django/1.10/views-and-urlconfs-in-django/ )
So, my server is working for me, and I'm trying to access
http://127.0.0.1:8000/blog/time/
When I try to access this view, I get an error message:
Using the URLconf defined in mysite.urls, Django tried to use this pattern URL in this order:
^blog ^time/$ [name='todays_time']
^blog ^$ [name='blog_index']
^admin/
The current path, blog / time /, does not match any of them.
Here is the layout of my Django project:
My mysite urls.py file looks like this:
from django.conf.urls import url, include
from django.contrib import admin
urlpatterns = [
url(r'^blog/', include('blog.urls')),
url(r'^admin/', admin.site.urls),
]
My blog package urls.py file is as follows:
from django.conf.urls import url
from blog import views
urlpatterns = [
url(r'^time/$', views.today_is, name='todays_time'),
url(r'^$', views.index, name='blog_index'),
]
my blog package views.py looks like this:
from django.http import HttpResponse
import datetime
def index(request):
return HttpResponse("Hello Django!!!")
def today_is(request):
now = datetime.datetime.now()
html = '''
<html>
<body>
Current date and time: {0}
</body>
</html>
'''.format(now)
return HttpResponse(html)
I can successfully switch to
http://127.0.0.1:8000/blog
and see the response from index () as "Hello Django !!!" in my browser. So I expected
http://127.0.0.1:8000/blog/time/
to work fine, but it’s not, and trying to see this is what gives the error I shared above.
Can someone point me in the right direction? I will be grateful! Thank you all!
