Single Page Application in Django

[Simon Gunacker]

Hey everbody,

I am new to django and I try to build a single page application. It consists of different sections (header, portfolio, contact, ...). As far as I understand the django philosophy, each of these sections could be a separate app (having its own model, view and template). But: How do I merge templates? How do I do the URL-routing? Any ideas on how to set this up in a smart way?

thanks, Simon

no, implementing something as a SPA is more of a concern to your frontend, if you use django solely as a backend (say using DRF for example) it won't matter if your client side is an SPA, mobile app or anything else, django will see requests and answer to them.

if you are new to django I strongly recommend doing the tutorial, it will introduce you to the main concepts of django

good luck

Avraham

I'll bite - what is DRF? Google does not help with that.

Trying googling DRF django or DRF python. Anyway it is Django Rest Framework :-)

I m not sure if my first post went through or not.

We are also trying to move to SPA using angular.js.

While going to through this app https://github.com/Tivix/django-rest-auth, It seems that we have to use Token authentication on web and mobile. 

Session authentication is not an option. Is it true?

Currently we serve html pages using django session authentication on web. If I use only token authentication then how can I serve html templates?

I m also working on SPA with angular.js. One problem I have is regarding authentication. 

We have currently mixture of angular.js and html pages served by django but our new version will be SPA.

Till now our project was using session authentication (web) & token authentication (mobile). 

I was trying to get password related api on REST.While integrating https://github.com/Tivix/django-rest-auth it seems that in SPA we have to use token authentication on web.

If I allow only token authentication on web + mobile then,
Will token authentication allow us to serve partial templates? Our template are currently served by django.

Hi,

You don't have to use one or the other. You can use both authentication mechanisms. You would just list each authentication mechanism backend in your settings.py file. So, what would happen is the authentication framework will loop through each of the backends and if one backend fails than it moves on to the next one. I hope that helps.
