Generic date views
==================
.. module:: django.views.generic.dates
Date-based generic views, provided in :mod:`django.views.generic.dates`, are
views for displaying drilldown pages for date-based data.
ArchiveIndexView
----------------
.. class:: ArchiveIndexView
A top-level index page showing the "latest" objects, by date. Objects with
a date in the *future* are not included unless you set ``allow_future`` to
``True``.
**Ancestors (MRO)**
* :class:`django.views.generic.dates.ArchiveIndexView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.list.MultipleObjectTemplateResponseMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.base.TemplateResponseMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.dates.BaseArchiveIndexView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.dates.BaseDateListView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.list.MultipleObjectMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.dates.DateMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.base.View`
**Notes**
* Uses a default ``context_object_name`` of ``latest``.
* Uses a default ``template_name_suffix`` of ``_archive``.
* Defaults to providing ``date_list`` by year, but this can be altered to
month or day using the attribute ``date_list_period``. This also applies
to all subclass views.
YearArchiveView
---------------
.. class:: YearArchiveView
A yearly archive page showing all available months in a given year. Objects
with a date in the *future* are not displayed unless you set
``allow_future`` to ``True``.
**Ancestors (MRO)**
* :class:`django.views.generic.dates.YearArchiveView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.list.MultipleObjectTemplateResponseMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.base.TemplateResponseMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.dates.BaseYearArchiveView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.dates.YearMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.dates.BaseDateListView`
* :class:`django.views.generic.list.MultipleObjectMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.dates.DateMixin`
* :class:`django.views.generic.base.View`
.. attribute:: make_object_list
A boolean specifying whether to retrieve the full list of objects for
this year and pass those to the template. If ``True``, the list of
objects will be made available to the context. If ``False``, the
``None`` queryset will be used as the object list. By default, this is
``False``.
.. method:: get_make_object_list()
Determine if an object list will be returned as part of the context.
Returns :attr:`~YearArchiveView.make_object_list` by default.
**Context**
In addition to the context provided by
:class:`django.views.generic.list.MultipleObjectMixin` (via
:class:`django.views.generic.dates.BaseDateListView`), the template's
context will be:
* ``date_list``: A
:meth:`DateQuerySet<django.db.models.query.QuerySet.dates>` object object
containing all months that have objects available according to
``queryset``, represented as
:class:`datetime.datetime<python:datetime.datetime>` objects, in
ascending order.
* ``year``: A :class:`~datetime.date` object
representing the given year.
.. versionchanged:: 1.5
Previously, this returned a string.
* ``next_year``: A :class:`~datetime.date` object
representing the first day of the next year, according to
:attr:`~BaseDateListView.allow_empty` and
:attr:`~DateMixin.allow_future`.
.. versionadded:: 1.5
* ``previous_year``: A :class:`~datetime.date` object
representing the first day of the previous year, according to
:attr:`~BaseDateListView.allow_empty` and
:attr:`~DateMixin.allow_future`.
.. versionadded:: 1.5
**Notes**
* Uses a default ``template_name_suffix`` of ``_archive_year``.
