Rendering different templates to the same URL pattern in Django
Question
My question is similar to Same URL in multiple views in Django , but I am not rendering templates on the basis of user_authentication, but rather on the basis of JavaScript enabled or disabled in the browser.
What I am trying to do?
I am trying to render the index.html page if JavaScript is enabled in the browser, otherwise I want to render jsDisabled.html page if it's disabled and both of the pages should be rendered on the same URL pattern, for example:
localhost:8000 should either render index.html if JavaScript is enabled in the browser or it should render jsDisabled.html page if JavaScript is disabled.
Note: I am checking if JavaScript is disabled in the browser by using the <noscript> tag which will run when JavaScript is disabled.
Here is my code so far:
base.html:
{% load staticfiles %}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body class="noJs">
...
<a href="{% url 'index' 0 %}"> abc </a>
...
<noscript>
<style type="text/css">
.noJs {
display: none;
}
</style>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="{% ulr 'index' 1 %}"> /* This should render jsDisabled.html page on the same URL which is 'localhost:8000' */
</noscript>
</body>
</html>
urls.py:
from django.conf.urls import include, url
from django.contrib import admin
from . import views
urlpatterns = [
...
url(r'^(?P<flag>[0-1])$', views.index, name='index'),
]
views.py:
from django.shortcuts import render
def index(request, flag):
if (flag):
return render(request, 'jsDisabled.html')
else:
return render(request, 'index.html')

Depending on your Django version you may need to specify TEMPLATE_DIR = in settings.py (in newer versions this isn't required).
Here is some helpful information on template and tag logic:
Main/templates/myapp/base.html
Main/templates/myapp/index.html
Main/templates/myapp/includes/yes_js.html
Main/templates/myapp/includes/no_js.html
base.html:
{% load staticfiles %}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
{% block content %}
{% endblock %}
</body>
</html>
index.html:
{% extends 'myapp/base.html' %}
{% load staticfiles %}
{% block content %}
<noscript>
{% include 'no_js.html' %}
</noscript>
{% include 'yes_js.html' %}
{% endblock %}

After a lot of debugging I finally found the solution :) And here it is:
base.html:
{% load staticfiles %}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<div class="noJs">
...
<a href="{% url 'index' 0 %}"> abc </a>
...
</div>
<noscript>
<style type="text/css">
.noJs {
display: none;
}
</style>
{% include 'includes/jsDisabled.html' %}
</noscript>
</body>
</html>
urls.py
from django.conf.urls import include, url
from django.contrib import admin
from . import views
urlpatterns = [
url(r'^admin/', admin.site.urls),
url(r'^articles/', include('articles.urls')),
url(r'^contact/', include('contact.urls')),
url(r'^temp/',views.temp, name="temp"),
url(r'^$', views.index, name='index'),
]
views.py:
from django.shortcuts import render
def index(request):
return render(request,'index.html')
def temp(request):
return render(request,'temp.html')
I included the include built-in template tag as {% include 'includes/jsDisabled.html' %} suggested by @noes1s by creating a folder named includes inside the templates folder and placing jsDisabled.html inside of it.
