Improve Django View With Methods

I'm looking to improve my Django web application and mainly project scripts. I'm using many times the same Python code and I would like to simplify my views.py file. For example, I

Solution 1:

It looks like the error is because 'IndividuResume' should be a string, not a variable name.

DjangoFormID(request, IndividuFormulaire, 'IndividuResume')

Inside your template, you should use the variable ReverseTemplate, not the hardcoded string 'ReverseTemplate'

return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse(ReverseTemplate, kwargs={'id': post.id}))

The advantage of including the same boilerplate in each view is that it's very easy to follow what is going on. If you are worried about the repetition, I would consider looking at class based views, because they are designed for this kind of use case. I would avoid defining your own DjangoFormID -- if I was new to your project I would not know what DjangoFormID(request, IndividuFormulaire, 'IndividuResume') did, so it would slow me down.

If you do stick with your DjangoFormID method then here's a couple of recommendations:

• Make sure it always returns a response. At the moment, it returns a redirect response for a valid form, and None the rest of the time, which is going to cause problems.
• when I see DjangoFormID I assume it's a class, not a function. Rename it to django_form_id.
