I want to access static files in views.py but it doesn't work when I use {% load static %} and {% static relative_path %} in the same way like in a template.

hi Guy,

What's the structure of your project and the content of your settings.py?

You can't use the same tags for loading the staticfiles and the static method. However you should be able to load the file via:

https://stackoverflow.com/a/43295624

But the next question is what is it you want to achieve? Why do you need to load the static file in the view itself?

Regards,

Andréas

Here is the screenshot of my application. I want to read the content of my timeseries dataset file 'daily-min-temperatures.csv' in my views.py for future treatements.
