Javascript context¶

This mixin allows you to access the view context using javascript

from easy_rest.mixins import TemplateContextFetcherMixin
from django.views import generic

class ActiveTemplate(JavascriptContextMixin, generic.TemplateView):
    template_name = 'demo_app/home.html'


    def get_context_data(self, **kwargs):
        ctx = super(WelcomePage, self).get_context_data(**kwargs)
        ctx['message'] = "This is javascript context mixin"
        return ctx

let consts = window.restConsts;

// now to access the context, do the following:
console.log(consts.context);
console.log(consts.context.message);
