What are the best method to have this url structure namedomain.com/ instead of namedomain.com/catalogue for Django Oscar.
Do I have to create new app call frontpage or can I edit the myshop/urls.py such as this line?
path('', include(apps.get_app_config('oscar').urls[0])),
You would need to customize the app config used for Oscar to modify it's urls as shown in How to add views or change URLs or permissions [Oscar Docs]. Firstly inherit from oscar.config.Shop in some suitable file of yours and override its get_urls method. You can simply copy the urls from its source code [GitHub] or even simply remove the first two urls using list slicing and add your own in their place:
from django.urls import path, reverse_lazy
from oscar import config
class MyShop(config.Shop):
# Override get_urls method
def get_urls(self):
from django.contrib.auth import views as auth_views
from oscar.views.decorators import login_forbidden
urls = [
# Removed the redirect
path('', self.catalogue_app.urls), # modify this pattern so it is the homepage
path('basket/', self.basket_app.urls),
path('checkout/', self.checkout_app.urls),
path('accounts/', self.customer_app.urls),
path('search/', self.search_app.urls),
path('dashboard/', self.dashboard_app.urls),
path('offers/', self.offer_app.urls),
# Password reset - as we're using Django's default view functions,
# we can't namespace these urls as that prevents
# the reverse function from working.
path('password-reset/',
login_forbidden(
auth_views.PasswordResetView.as_view(
form_class=self.password_reset_form,
success_url=reverse_lazy('password-reset-done'),
template_name='oscar/registration/password_reset_form.html'
)
),
name='password-reset'),
path('password-reset/done/',
login_forbidden(auth_views.PasswordResetDoneView.as_view(
template_name='oscar/registration/password_reset_done.html'
)),
name='password-reset-done'),
path('password-reset/confirm/<str:uidb64>/<str:token>/',
login_forbidden(
auth_views.PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(
form_class=self.set_password_form,
success_url=reverse_lazy('password-reset-complete'),
template_name='oscar/registration/password_reset_confirm.html'
)
),
name='password-reset-confirm'),
path('password-reset/complete/',
login_forbidden(auth_views.PasswordResetCompleteView.as_view(
template_name='oscar/registration/password_reset_complete.html'
)),
name='password-reset-complete'),
]
return urls
Next in your INSTALLED_APPS where you have oscar.config.Shop replace it with this custom app config:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'oscar.config.Shop', # Remove this
'path.to.MyShop', # Add this
...
]
