URL rendered as home_page after internationalization

问题

I have a Django Website that I am trying to internationalize. Until now it looked like this:

Homepage:

• www.myhomepage.com

Another page:

• www.myhomepage.com/content/cities

---

Now I am trying to make it like this:

Homepage:

• www.myhomepage.com/en

• www.myhomepage.com/de

Another page:

• www.myhomepage.com/en/content/cities

• www.myhomepage.com/de/content/cities

---

Following this and this, I managed to make the homepage work, so with www.myhomepage.com/en I see the homepage in English and with www.myhomepage.com/de I see it in German.

The problem comes when I want to go to any other page, like www.myhomepage.com/en/content/cities. Then, the page rendered is still the homepage. Before changing any settings to internationalize it www.myhomepage.com/content/cities was showing up properly.

My guess is that the problem is with the view rendering or the url, but I do not manage to make it work. Note that the view for www.myhomepage.com belongs to one app and the view for content/cities belongs to a different app.

This is the code I have:

settings.py

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = [
    ...
    'django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware',
    ...
]

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
        'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')],
        'APP_DIRS': True,
        'OPTIONS': {
            'context_processors': [
                ...
                'django.template.context_processors.i18n',
            ],
        },
    },
]

from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _
LANGUAGES = (
    ('en', _('English')),
    ('de', _('German')),
)

LOCALE_PATHS = (
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'locale'),
)

LANGUAGE_CODE = 'en-us'

USE_I18N = True

Main app:

urls.py

urlpatterns = [
    url(r'^admin/', admin.site.urls),
]

urlpatterns += i18n_patterns('',
    url(r'^content/', include('content.urls', namespace='content')),
)

views.py

from django.shortcuts import render

def home_view(request):

    ...

    context = {
                ...
    }

    #print('request home', request)

    return render(request, 'home_template.html', context)

By activating the print statement and loading www.myhomepage.com/en/content/cities, the following is printed in the console: request home: <WSGIRequest: GET '/en/content/cities/'>, even though this view belongs to the home_page.

Content app:

urls.py

from .views import countries_and_cities

urlpatterns = [
    ...
    url(r'^cities/$', countries_and_cities),
    ...
]

views.py

from django.shortcuts import render

def countries_and_cities(request):

    ...

    context = {
                ...
    }

    return render(request, 'cities_template.html', context)

I have also tried what it is suggested in the docs, without success.

urls.py from main app:

urlpatterns = [
    url(r'^admin/', admin.site.urls),
]

from content import views as content_views
content_patterns = ([
    url(r'^cities/$', content_views.countries_and_cities, name='cities'),
], 'content')

urlpatterns += i18n_patterns('',
    url(r'^content/', include(content_patterns, namespace='content')),
)

What am I doing wrong?

回答1:

I finally found the problem.

There was another url defined as:

urlpatterns += i18n_patterns(
    ...
    url(r'', include('main.urls')),
    ...
    )

This was causing that the problem, even if before going for internationalization it was working properly.

I have just changed it to:

urlpatterns += i18n_patterns(
    ...
    url(r'^$', include('main.urls')),
    ...
    )

And it is working properly.
