making TemplateView.template_name point to a file NOT in the templates directory.

[Sharif Mehedi]

I do not have a django-admin project and using django views (along with other django submodules) in my python app, so, i do not have a directory structure like django projects has and I never had a templates directory in my app. The way we configured it, serving from templates directory is out of the question.

I want to know, if there's an easy solution in making django take a template_name as (django.views.generic.base).TemplateView.template_name that is (simply said) outside the templates directory.

TIA
