Django Intro page, we learned that the result should be in HTML, and it should be created in a template, so let's do that.Create a templates folder inside the members folder, and create a HTML file named myfirst.html. The file structure should be like this: my_tennis_club manage.py my_tennis_club/ members/ templates/ myfirst.html Open the HTML file and insert the following:
Formula
my_tennis_club/members/templates/myfirst.html<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body>
Formula
< h1 > Hello World!</h1 >
< p > Welcome to my first Django project!</p ></body> </html>
Open the views.py file in the members folder, and replace its content with this:
Formula
my_tennis_club/members/views.pyfrom django.http import HttpResponse from django.template import loader
def members(request):Formula
template = loader.get_template('myfirst.html')return HttpResponse(template.render())To be able to work with more complicated stuff than "Hello World!", We have to tell Django that a new app is created. This is done in the settings.py file in the my_tennis_club folder.
INSTALLED_APPS[] list and add the members app like this:
Formula
my_tennis_club/my_tennis_club/settings.pyINSTALLED_APPS = [ 'django.contrib.admin', 'django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.messages', 'django.contrib.staticfiles', 'members' ]
