Url dispatcher and how django processes a request.

Django provides several decorators that can be applied to views to support various http features.

View Decorators

Request and Response Objects: Part 1

Part two of the request and response objects.

Request and Response Objects: Part 2

Template response and simple template response.

Template Response and Simple Template Response

Template response is a subclass of simple template response that knows about the current http request.

Template Response Objects

There are some generic views for simple task such as showing a list of objects and rendering a template.

Introducing Generic Views

Class based views provide an alternative way to implement views as python objects instead of functions.

Introduction to Class Based Views: Part 1

Using mixins, handling forms with class based views and more.

Introduction to Class Based Views: Part 2

Writing web applications can be monotonous, because we repeat certain patterns again and again django generic views were developed to ease that pain .

Built-in class Based Generic Views

Django comes with a handful of built-in generic views that makes generating list and details views of objects incredibly easy.

Generic Views of Objects

Often you simply need to present some extra information beyond that provided by the generic view.

Adding Extra Context

Another common need is to filter down the objects given in a list page by some key in the url .

Dynamic Filtering and Performing Extra Work

Built-in Editing Views

To track the user that created an object using a creatview you can use a custom model form.

Models and request.user

Django's built-in class based views provide a lot of functionality, but some of it you May want to use separately.

Using Mixins with Class based Views

Now we've seen how django's generic class based views use the provided mixins, lets look at other ways we can combine them.

Using Django's Class Based View Mixins

In this lecture we are going to talk about three classes that provide much of the functionality needed to create Django views.

Base Views: Part 1

In this lecture, we are going to learn about the template and redirect base views.

Base Views: Part 2

This lecture explains how to output CSV dynamically using Django views to do this we are going to use the Python CSV library and in the next lecture, we are going to use Django template system.
