Django passing variables to templates from class based views

Question

If I have a class based view, like this,

class SomeView (View):
    response_template=\'some_template.html\'
    var1 = 0
    var2 = 1

    def get(self, re         


        

Answer 1

For passing your class label variable inside a function, you need to refer with self which refer as a newly created object. As we know for accessing any variable in class we need to refer to its object. Otherwise, it will be caught global name 'your variable' is not defined

as an example in your case you can do it like

class YourView(genericView):
    template_name='your_template.html'
    var1 = 12
    var2 =1

    def get(self, **kwargs):
        context = locals()
        context['var1'] = self.var1
       context['var2'] = self.var2
       return context
