Django & HTMX - Template Fragments with django-render-block

[@tobidegnon4409]

I discovered this myself a few days ago reading htmx essay on template fragments, using it since and it really simplified my code, a great tool for any Django htmx dev

[@bugbytes3923]

Agreed. I've been in a position in the past where the easiest thing to do was break small parts of code into their own files, and render these in HTMX responses. Not a disaster, but the templates quickly add up.
Now, this tool will prevent having to do that - very useful for HTMX and in general!

[@GatewayITTutorials]

I've used a similar approach even before this article came out:
1) Create 1 html template file with all of the parts you need (for a specific page of course)
2) In the view check for HTMX header and a field name (or submit a custom header to check it in the backend)
3) Return a part of the template using the field name from the header (ie {% if header_value == "bla" %}Bla template{% endif %})
no third party extensions needed ;)

[@bugbytes3923]

Interesting approach, sounds good!

Hi, do you have a code example to guide us?

@@sebastianolivares2899 thanks, I've seen the post. Will put something together today/tomorrow

[@sidds09]

pls do a complete django project with alpinejs and HTMX.. it still needs to be seen if these could be used to build something big and scalable. using these in fragments is easier, but actual purpose can only be seen with some heavy work. it would be great to have something that saves us from going to react/vue, every time we build something for market.

Thanks you very much bro. Great insight on Django development. Learning HTMX with you has been

Thanks bro.

[@MagnusAnand]

Great video. I have a suggestion for a different topic that will help with Django topics in general: deployment 😉

[@bugbytes3923]

Thanks! And yeah, I'm going to be bringing some deployment stuff onto the channel soon.
I've prepared content for deploying Django apps to AWS ElasticBeanstalk - I'll be recording that one soon. Any other platforms you'd be interested in seeing videos for?

[@robhafemeister3100]

Great video! Will definitely use with HTMX

Hello friend, I wanted to thank you for the excellent videos about django and htmx. And also ask yourself, do you plan to make a video on how to integrate vite to django?

[@surendrasrikakolapu7972]

Is it possible for authentication (login, register) too?
means template fragments......
Anyway great work !

[@bugbytes3923]

Yes, it would definitely be possible for login and registration forms to create these fragments/blocks.

Really helpful, thanks a lot!

Thanks for the great explanation. What if I want the last book name to be visible in the input form? I mean, I would like to see the book name added in the panel below and the name also shown in the the form, just to compare that the added record is just what I typed before. Hope you can answer my question

[@dodokwak]

Thx. Do you think this approach will be suitable for an appointment application? Still hesitate.

[@Septumsempra8818]

I'm struggling with this. I was getting a lot of recursion errors and too little help. Imma try this out, I hope it works.
