The slug will only work on HomeView if I add it to the HomeViews context, but I only want to add it one time, I don't want to add it to every view, but I want it to work on every view.
Is there anyway I can do this?
app2/models.py
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.urls import reverse
class Model1(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
slug = models.SlugField(unique=True, blank=False, null=False)
app1/views.py
from app2.models import Model1
from django.shortcuts import render, redirect
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.views.generic.list import ListView
class HomeView(ListView):
model = Model1
ordering = ['-id']
template_name = 'app1/home.html'
boolean = False
model1_slug = 'app2'
def get_context_data(self, **kwargs):
context = super().get_context_data(**kwargs)
if Model1.objects.filter(user=self.request.user).exists():
self.boolean = True
user_model1 = Model1.objects.get(user=self.request.user)
self.model1_slug = user_model1.slug
else:
self.model1_slug = 'app2'
self.boolean = False
context['model1_slug'] = self.model1_slug
context['boolean'] = self.boolean
return context
includes/navbar.html
{% if boolean == False %}
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="{% url 'start-model1' %}">Start Model1</a></li>
{% elif boolean == True %}
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="{% url 'my-model1' model1_slug %}">My Model1</a></li>
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="{% url 'add-model2' %}">Add model2</a></li>
{% endif %}
The navbar will give nothing if I'm not at the home page.
