Comment on Class Based Views: CreateView Example by Dan

Guruprasad, reverse works pretty much the same way as always. The key is to use the as_view() method of the class based view in the URL declaration:

url(r’^create_type/$’,TypeCreateView.as_view(),name=’create_type’),

Then, you can reverse it as usual:

{% url create_type %}
or
reverse(‘create_type’)

What I can’t understand here is that, once you have used a class-based generic view, how would reverse(‘create_type’) work? If you leave that view intact it will work. How do I do a reverse if I don’t have a function-based view?

Comment on Class-Based Views – Am I Doing It Right? by jaymz

“self isnt available” → that doesn’t work at that point because self is a re fence to an *instance* of the class being created. at that stage of your class you’ve not actually created an instance of it yet so “self” is non-existent.

since request is only passed through to methods for the class view the way you set it within the method is correct in terms of the self.request session line.

if you’re looking to provide that variable across your views why not move it into a context processor and pass it into your TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS tuple in settings?
