Django的URL标签能否显示RedirectView的URL

Question

Let's say that in my urls.py I have a url like this:

path("support/", RedirectView.as_view(url="http://www.example.com"), name="support"),

And in one of my templates I use the url tag:

{% url "support" %}

This of course outputs /support/ as expected. But what if I want it to output http://www.example.com instead? Is that at all possible? Skip the redirect basically.

So <a href="{% url "support" %}">Link</a> would output <a href="http://www.example.com">Link</a> .

But what if I want it to render http://www.example.com instead? Is that at all possible? Skip the redirect basically.

No, in short it is not possible with django views, since the url is of another website and you can't render it in your own.

You can see what exactly render() does.

If you'd like to directly redirect, then simply use anchor tag as:

<a href="http://www.example.com">Visit website.</a>

You can also do this dynamically, by creating a URLField in one of the models and simply iterating it with href attribute of anchor tag.
