views.py getting big

[Tasmania]

Hi there,
I have one single application that has building up functionalities so
views.py has grown and it's getting big. The application is running
fast, but I'd like to partitionate views.py (i.e. putting some
functions in a different file, etc) can I do that in Django?

Thanks!

a) Yes you can keep views wherever you want, but in keeping with the views convention you could make views a directory and make multiple files there (plus an __init__.py file) and map the urls to the new address correctly.
b) by the time you get to this point it usually indicates that you're doing too much in one application, checkout James' video on making your apps reusable: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-S0tqpPga4

Please ask this question on the django-users mailing list. This list
(django-dev) is for the internal development of Django itself, not "how
do I use Django" questions.
