django url rewrite without redirect

Question

I'm using django and have hundreds of subdomain url

abc.domain.com 

want to rewrite to

domain.com/site/abc/

Is it possible via url-rewriting that the user won't see

domain.com/site/abc/

in his browser, but sees

abc.domain.com 

This can be done at apache side. But my question is, can we do it inside django?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

I don't really understand you question, but maybe some fiddling with request.urlconf and custom middleware is the solution? https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/request-response/#django.http.HttpRequest.urlconf

Answer 2

The Django sites framework does provide some tools to deal with multiple domains, but they all assume you have a different SITE_ID for each deployment.

That said. You can probably write up a middleware that checks request.META['HTTP_HOST'] and then passes that information off to your view in whatever way you wish.

At that point you can just follow the Django docs on using a site custom manager for your models.

Answer 3

你有没有运行apache，我认为这种请求可以通过APACHE的重写引擎来处理
