Python + Django page redirect

Question

How do I accomplish a simple redirect (e.g. cflocation in ColdFusion, or header(location:http://) for PHP) in Django?

Answer 1

It's simple:

from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect

def myview(request):
    ...
    return HttpResponseRedirect("/path/")

More info in the official Django docs

Update: Django 1.0

There is apparently a better way of doing this in Django now using generic views.

Example -

from django.views.generic.simple import redirect_to

urlpatterns = patterns('',   
    (r'^one/$', redirect_to, {'url': '/another/'}),

    #etc...
)

There is more in the generic views documentation. Credit - Carles Barrobés.

Update #2: Django 1.3+

In Django 1.5 redirect_to no longer exists and has been replaced by RedirectView. Credit to Yonatan

from django.views.generic import RedirectView

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    (r'^one/$', RedirectView.as_view(url='/another/')),
)
