Django | Python creating a JSON response
- by MMRUser
Hi,
I'm trying to convert a server side AJAX response script in to an Django HttpResponse, but apparently it's not working.
This is the server-side script
/* RECEIVE VALUE */
$validateValue=$_POST['validateValue'];
$validateId=$_POST['validateId'];
$validateError=$_POST['validateError'];
/* RETURN VALUE */
$arrayToJs = array();
$arrayToJs[0] = $validateId;
$arrayToJs[1] = $validateError;
if($validateValue =="Testuser"){ // validate??
$arrayToJs[2] = "true"; // RETURN TRUE
echo '{"jsonValidateReturn":'.json_encode($arrayToJs).'}'; // RETURN ARRAY WITH success
}else{
for($x=0;$x<1000000;$x++){
if($x == 990000){
$arrayToJs[2] = "false";
echo '{"jsonValidateReturn":'.json_encode($arrayToJs).'}'; // RETURN ARRAY WITH ERROR
}
}
}
And this is the converted code
def validate_user(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
vld_value = request.POST.get('validateValue')
vld_id = request.POST.get('validateId')
vld_error = request.POST.get('validateError')
array_to_js = [vld_id, vld_error, False]
if vld_value == "TestUser":
array_to_js[2] = True
x = simplejson.dumps(array_to_js)
return HttpResponse(x)
else:
array_to_js[2] = False
x = simplejson.dumps(array_to_js)
test = 'Error'
return render_to_response('index.html',{'error':error},context_instance=RequestContext(request))
return render_to_response('index.html',context_instance=RequestContext(request))
I'm using simplejson to encode the Python list (so it will return a json array).Coudn't figure out the problem yet.But I think that I did something wrong about the 'echo'. Anyway I'm expecting an good answer it will help me a lot.
Thanks.
