python - When trying to display a chart using ChartIt, Error saying template does not exist arises -
i using chartit , keep receiving "template not exist" when trying view chart @ url. tutorial being followed properly, may have made mistake somewhere. new django, appreciated. request load chart working def being called.
def in views.py file.
def linechart(request): commitdata = \ datapool( series= [{'options': { 'source': testcommit.objects.all()[:200]}, 'terms': ['author', 'author_time']}]) linechart = chart( datasource=commitdata, series_options= [{'options': { 'type': 'line', 'stacking': false}, 'terms': { 'author_time': [ 'author_time'] }}], chart_options= {'title': { 'text': 'yays'}, 'xaxis': { 'title': { 'text': 'month number'}}}) return render_to_response({'testcommits.html': linechart}) testcommits.html
<head> <!-- code include highcharts , jquery libraries goes here --> <!-- load_charts filter takes comma-separated list of id's --> <!-- charts need rendered --> <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="http://code.highcharts.com/highcharts.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="/highcharts.js" type="text/javascript"></script> {% load chartit %} {{ linechart|load_charts:"container" }} </head> <body> <div id='container'> chart rendered here </div> </body>
i noticed in installation instructions don't add 'chartit' installed_apps in settings file, did in demo project. have done that?
edit: dan-klasson correct. need specify template return. view should returning following:
return render_to_response('testcommits.html', {'linechart': linechart}) the dictionary context in passed template. first argument template name, in case testcommits.html.
