Re: Passing an image to the other url?

Jeremy, 

Extending a template do not magically gives you access to the context variables the other template has.

The context is set in the view, what's the view for the homepage? You didn't include it in your post.

Is the variable images set in there? I recommend using django debug toolbar to help debugging issues

like this. 

Anyway, make sure to set a context variable `images` in your homepage view and you will be all set.

Please beware that I'm just few weeks into django and really do not feel confortable at it

In my first django project I've created an app which is uploading images to the site, the images are stored at the same link the uploading takes place

What I'm trying to accomplish is to upload the images at the /list.html and to display the images on the homepage.

I've tried to inherit template from list.html so the homepage would have the variable images so I could iterate over it but to no avail.

I'm stuck and really a django framework beginner.

All the homepage says is "No images."

models.py 

from django.db import models

from PIL import Image

class Image(models.Model):

    imgfile = models.ImageField(upload_to='images/%Y/%m/%d')

    

forms.py

from django import forms

class ImageForm(forms.Form):

    imgfile = forms.ImageField(

        label='Select a file',

    )

views.py

from django.shortcuts import render_to_response

from django.template import RequestContext

from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect

from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse

from .models import Image

from .forms import ImageForm

def list(request):

    # handling the file upload process

    if request.method == 'POST':

        form = ImageForm(request.POST, request.FILES)

        if form.is_valid():

            newimg = Image(imgfile = request.FILES['imgfile'])

            newimg.save()

            # point to the list of images

            return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('img.views.list'))

    else:

        form = ImageForm() # show nothing

    #load images on the list page

    images = Image.objects.all()

    # render list page with the images & the browse form

    return render_to_response(

        

        'img/list.html',

        {'images': images, 'form':form},

        context_instance=RequestContext(request)

    )

and templates: 

list.html
