Django comment Tag

Comments

Comments allows you to have sections of code that should be ignored.

Example

Formula

< h1 > Welcome Everyone </h1 >
{% comment %}

Formula

< h1 > Welcome ladies and gentlemen </h1 >
{% endcomment %}

Comment Description

You can add a message to your comment, to help you remember why you wrote the comment, or as message to other people reading the code.

Example

Add a description to your comment:

Formula

< h1 > Welcome Everyone </h1 >
{% comment "this was the original welcome message" %}

Formula

< h1 > Welcome ladies and gentlemen </h1 >
{% endcomment %}

Smaller Comments

You can also use the

{# ... #}

tags when commenting out code, which can be easier for smaller comments:

Example

Comment out the word Everyone:

<h1>Welcome{# Everyone#}</h1>

Comment in Views

Views are written in Python, and Python comments are written with the # character:

Example

Comment out a section in the view: from django.http import HttpResponse from django.template import loader

def testing(request):

Formula

template = loader.get_template('template.html')
#context = {
# 'var1': 'John',
#}
return HttpResponse(template.render())
