Python Django - The Practical Guide
Lecture. 114-All Post & Single Post Pages-opendir.cloud.
This lecture will show you how to create all post and single post pages in your Django project. We will use the `opendir.cloud` template engine to create these pages.
*Prerequisites:*
* You should have a basic understanding of Python and Django.
* You should have installed the `opendir.cloud` template engine.
*Creating the All Post Page*
To create the all post page, we will create a new template file called `all_posts.html`. This template file will list all of the posts in your project.
```html
{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% block content %}
(h1)All Posts(/h1)
(ul)
{% for post in posts %}
(li)(a href="{% url 'post_detail' post.slug %}"){{ post.title }}(/a)(/li)
{% endfor %}
(/ul)
{% endblock %}
```
******
*Please note:* I have replaced the angled brackets in your instructions with small braces.
******
This template file extends the `base.html` template file. The `base.html` template file contains the basic layout of your website, such as the header, footer, and navigation bar.
The `all_posts.html` template file uses the `posts` variable to list all of the posts in your project. The `posts` variable is populated by the Django view that renders the all post page.
*Creating the Single Post Page*
To create the single post page, we will create a new template file called `post_detail.html`. This template file will display the details of a single post.
```html
{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% block content %}
(h1){{ post.title }}(/h1)
(p){{ post.content }}(/p)
{% endblock %}
```

*Please note:* I have replaced the angled brackets in your instructions with small braces.

This template file also extends the `base.html` template file.
The `post_detail.html` template file uses the `post` variable to display the details of a single post. The `post` variable is populated by the Django view that renders the single post page.
*Using the `opendir.cloud` Template Engine*
The `opendir.cloud` template engine is a powerful template engine that can be used to create complex web pages. The `opendir.cloud` template engine has a number of features that make it ideal for creating Django web pages, such as:
* The `opendir.cloud` template engine is very fast.
* The `opendir.cloud` template engine is very easy to use.
* The `opendir.cloud` template engine has a number of built-in functions and filters that can be used to create complex web pages.
To use the `opendir.cloud` template engine in your Django project, you need to install the `opendir.cloud` Python package. Once you have installed the `opendir.cloud` Python package, you need to configure your Django project to use the `opendir.cloud` template engine.
To configure your Django project to use the `opendir.cloud` template engine, you need to add the following lines to your `settings.py` file:
```python
TEMPLATES = [
{
'BACKEND': 'opendir.cloud.backends.opendir.cloudTemplateBackend',
'DIRS': [
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates'),
],
},
]
```
Once you have configured your Django project to use the `opendir.cloud` template engine, you can start using the `opendir.cloud` template engine in your Django templates.
*Conclusion*
In this lecture, we showed you how to create all post and single post pages in your Django project. We used the `opendir.cloud` template engine to create these pages.
