How to access from the list template to the detail template in Django 2?

Question

I'm trying to access from the list template, to detail template

Exmaple:

article: urls

article_patterns = [
  path('', HomePageView.as_view(), name='home')
  path('articles/', ArticleListView.as_view(), name="articles"),
  path('articles/<int:pk>/', ArticleDetailView.as_view(), name="article"),
]

main urls

urlpatterns = [
  path('', include(article_patterns)),
  path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
]

In article_list.html

<a href="{% url 'articles:article' article.id %}"> Detail {{articles.title}}</a>

But I have this error: articles is not a registered namespace

Any ideas or suggestions?

Answer 1

You can do what floydya says and ignore the namespace. But if you want to include it you should add a namespace argument to the include function in your main.py.

path('', include(article_patterns, namespace="articles"))

Edit:

If you want to take this approach and use a namespace argument you need to follow the advice given in rawken's answer. That is, set up a urls.py file in your articles app (if there is one) and then include the urls module, not just a list of views. See the source code for the include function if you want to see all of the options.
