从 Django 中的视图执行 function

Question

i need help with my django project. I am trying to open folder from django view and I came up with idea which will execute python script which will handle this part, because for some security reasons Chrome is not able to directly open file explorer (program).

So I tried this.

detail.html looks:

<form class="form" method='post'>
  {% csrf_token %}
  <button style="width:100%;" type='explorer' name='explorer' value='explorer' class="btn btn-info btn-min-width"><i class="fa fa-folder"></i> Navigate to folder</button>
</form>

actions.py looks:

def openexplorer():
    return os.system('explorer')

view.py looks:

def detail(request, Pools_id):
    try:
        je = More.objects.get(pk=Pools_id)
    except More.DoesNotExist:
        raise Http404("Question does not exist")
    return render(request, 'rc/detail.html', {'more_identification': je})

    if request.method == 'POST':
        if 'explorer' in request.POST:
            openexplorer()

I am rendring the page and i only want to execute the script when the button is clicked. Can someone please help? I think there is some error in view.py.

Thanks a lot !
