Django - 将HTML输出转换为变量

Question

instead of using render_to_response which will send the HTML output back to browser.

I would like to take the results, generate HTML (using templates) & output the html into a variable in my views.py . How can I do this?

Answer 1

SOLVED! the way to do this -

from django.template.loader import render_to_string
rendered = render_to_string('my_template.html', { 'foo': 'bar' })

thanks to ned for pointing to the Django docs

Answer 2

Adapted from the Django docs :

from django.template import Context, Template
t = Template("My name is {{ my_name }}.")
c = Context({"my_name": "Adrian"})
output = t.render(c)

Answer 3

There is even a simpler way (if you need to extract html data from render method):

R = render('template.html', context)
data = str(R.content)
