RequestContext on django redirect()
I'm wondering if there is any way to include the RequestContext in the django redirect function or any other context.
The thing is that I need to add a message after an object is created, but the messages framewotk requires a RequestContext to work or another context that returns the messages. How can I do to return a context?
My view:
@permission_required('spaces.add_space')
def create_space(request):
"""
Returns a SpaceForm form to fill with data to create a new space. There
is an attached EntityFormset to save the entities related to the space. Only
site administrators are allowed to create spaces.
:attributes: - space_form: empty SpaceForm instance
- entity_forms: empty EntityFormSet
:rtype: Space object, multiple entity objects.
:context: form, entityformset
"""
space_form = SpaceForm(request.POST or None, request.FILES or None)
entity_forms = EntityFormSet(request.POST or None, request.FILES or None,
queryset=Entity.objects.none())
if request.user.is_staff:
if request.method == 'POST':
space_form_uncommited = space_form.save(commit=False)
space_form_uncommited.author = request.user
if space_form.is_valid() and entity_forms.is_valid():
new_space = space_form_uncommited.save()
space = get_object_or_404(Space, name=space_form_uncommited.name)
ef_uncommited = entity_forms.save(commit=False)
for ef in ef_uncommited:
ef.space = space
ef.save()
# We add the created spaces to the user allowed spaces
request.user.profile.spaces.add(space)
# This message does not work since there's no context.
messages.info(request, 'Space %s created successfully.' % space.name)
return redirect('/spaces/' + space.url)
return render_to_response('spaces/space_add.html',

Storing a message doesn't require a RequestContext, it's only displaying it that does. In what way doesn't your code work? Your message should be added to the database and available to be displayed after the redirect.
I had the same question and just want to clarify that it 'just works'
def first_view(request)
...
messages.info(request, "Some info message")
...
return redirect('second_view')
def second_view(request)
...
return render_to_response('template.html',{},context_instance=RequestContext(request))
-> will correctly display the message
