I am trying to implement end less pagination in Django App but stuck at how to implement twitter like end less scrolling :
My models.py
from django.db import models
from django.contrib import admin
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
class Book(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
pub_date = models.DateField(auto_now_add=True)
class bookAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
"""Book admin class"""
list_display = ('name','pub_date')
ordering = ('name',)
admin.site.register(Book,bookAdmin)
My views.py :
from models import Book
from django.template import RequestContext
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
def latest_books(request,template = 'latest_books.html',
page_template = 'latest_books_page.html' ):
context = {}
book_list = Book.objects.order_by('-pub_date')
context.update( {'book_list': book_list, 'page_template': page_template,} )
# override the template and use the 'page' style instead.
if request.is_ajax():
template = page_template
return render_to_response(
template, context, context_instance=RequestContext(request) )
My 'latest_books.html' template :
<html><head><title>Books</title></head>
<body>
<h1>Books</h1>
{% block js %}
{{ block.super }}
<script src="http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-1.5.2.min.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://yourjavascript.com/337923491/endless.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://yourjavascript.com/151379951/endless-pagination.js"></script>
<script>$.endlessPaginate();</script>
{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
<div class="endless_page_template">
{% include page_template %}
</div>
{% endblock %}
</body></html>
My latest_books_page.html :
<h2>Viewing All Entries</h2>
{% load endless %}
<div>
<ul>
{% paginate book_list %}
{% for book in book_list %}
<li>{{ book.name }}</li> {{ book.pub_date }}
{% endfor %}
{% show_pages %}
</ul>
</div>
I am facing two issues first if i use {{ block.super }}
as given in tutorial .Django gives this error 'BlockNode' object has no attribute 'context'
and if i remove {{ block.super }}
. I get simple pagination with next and previous functionality .
Can someone help me please. I want to implement on scroll load pagination...
Please try out my code:
views.py :
latest_books.html :
latest_books_page.html :
Try out and let me know ... and enter 20-30 entries into your DB to check it out properly ...
You have to include
page_template
before call the{{block.super}}
