Introduction to Django @myusuf3 because who reads documentation 

What is Django? The D is silent. 

BlogIt The future of online writing, maybe. 

$ django-admin startproject blogit blogit ├── blogit │ ├── __init__.py │ ├── settings.py │ ├── urls.py │ └── wsgi.py └── manage.py 

$ django-admin startapp blog * be sure to add new app in settings file 

from django.db import models class Author(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=50) class Blog(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=200) text = models.TextField() pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published', auto_now_add=True,) author = models.ForeignKey(Author) 

$ python manage.py makemigrations blog 

Migrations for 'blog': 0001_initial.py: - Create model Author - Create model Blog 

$ python manage.py migrate 

Operations to perform: Synchronize unmigrated apps: staticfiles, messages Apply all migrations: admin, blog, contenttypes, auth, sessions Synchronizing apps without migrations: Creating tables... Running deferred SQL... Installing custom SQL... Running migrations: Rendering model states... DONE Applying blog.0001_initial... OK 

View from Top The steward of control 

def post(request, post_id): post = get_object_or_404(Blog, pk=post_id) return render(request, 'post.html', {'post': post}) 

Templates and Rendering Making things look beautiful 

{{ post.title }}

Posted: {{ post.pub_date }}

Author: {{post.author.name}}

{{post.text}}



Feature Request! CEO has epiphany!! 

def latest(request): posts = Blog.objects.all() return render(request, 'posts.html', {'posts': posts}) 

{% for post in posts %}

{{ post.title }}

Posted: {{ post.pub_date }}

Author: {{post.author.name}}

{{post.text}}

{% endfor %}
