How can we access the context passed in template in method views?
urls.py
urlpatterns = [
path('', views.method_A, name='first_view'),
path('method_B', views.method_B, name='second_view'),
]
def method_A(request):
context = {"name":"sample"}
html_template = loader.get_template('some_template.html')
return HttpResponse(html_template.render(context, request))
Template as
<div>
{{name}}
<a href="method_B">Redirect</a>
</div>
def method_B(request):
# Here how to get context which was present earlier
context = {"second":"second"}
html_template = loader.get_template('template_B.html')
return HttpResponse(html_template.render(context, request))
How we can get context in method based views in django.? So that it can be used in another templates.
You can store as a session variable.

def method_A(request):
html_template = loader.get_template('some_template.html')
request.session['my_context'] = 'Example' #Setting Cookie
return HttpResponse(html_template.render(context, request))
def method_B(request):
# Here how to get context which was present earlier
my_context = request.session.pop('my_context', None) # Getting Cookie
html_template = loader.get_template('template_B.html')
return HttpResponse(html_template.render(context, request))
