Hello,
Im trying to render a django template from a database outside of djangos normal request-response structure. But it appears to be non-trivial due to the way django templates are compiled. I want to do something like this:
>>> s = Template.objects.get(pk = 123).content
>>> some_method_to_render(s, {'a' : 123, 'b' : 456})
>>> ... the rendered output here ...
How do you do this?
There's nothing complicated about this, and it doesn't have anything to do with the request/response structure. All you need to do is pass the template string into the django.template.Template constructor (BTW, I've changed the name of your model, to avoid confusion):
from django.template import Template
from myapp.models import DbTemplate
s = DbTemplate.objects.get(pk=123).content
tpl = Template(s)
tpl.render({'a' : 123, 'b' : 456})
