Snippet List
By combining the CreateView and UpdateView, you can significantly reduce repetition when processing complex forms (for example, with multiple inline formsets), by only writing the get_context_data and form_valid functions once.
This class can be used just like a normal CreateView or UpdateView.
Note that if you're trying to use it as an UpdateView but it cannot find the requested object, it will behave as a CreateView, rather than showing a 404 page.

This view acts as an extension to the object_detail generic view in django.views.generic.object_list. The standard generic view can only filter the queryset by object_id or slug; this view allows you to filter by any parameter you like, as well as multiple parameters.
The usage is the same as the standard object_detail view except that you must also give the parameter 'filters', which should be an array of what you would like to filter the url values as, and instead of 'slug' or 'object_id' as the regex parameter in the URL, use 'value1', 'value2', etc.
Example: If you have a list of companies, each with multiple branches, you may want a branch details page. A URL for this may look as follows: http://www.mysite.com/company/company-slug/branch-slug/. To implement this simply use the urlpattern example give,

I tried a few snippets of integrated jinja2 in django, which provided ?.render_to_string and ?.render_to_response in the way of jinja2. **But those snippets could not use the generic view**, because of the generic views is use default django template. so i write this snippet which could use generic view, and use the basic django.shortcuts.render_to_string, django.shortcuts.render_to_string.
#in yourproject/urls.py :
#install default environment is very simple
djangojinja2.install()
#install environment of specified Environment class
from jinja2.sandbox import SandboxedEnvironment
djangojinja2.install(SandboxedEnvironment)
#alternative you can install sepcified environment
env=Environment(...)
...
djangojinja2.install(env)
#something could be set in settings.py
TEMPLATE_DIRS = (path.join(path.dirname(__file__),"templates"),)
JINJA_GLOBALS=['myapp.myutil.foo',]
JINJA_FILTERS=['django.template.defaultfilters.date',]
JINJA_TESTS=('foo.mytest',)
JINJA_EXTS=['jinja2.ext.i18n']
#there is no change need for app.views
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
def foo(request):
return render_to_response('/myjinja2.html',{'request':request})
test in django development version of r12026 , jinja2 2.2.1, python 2.5
