Here's my two cents. Hope it helps some.
from proj.settings import TEMPLATE_DIRS, INSTALLED_APPS
import os
def recursive_search(path):
result = []
for i in os.listdir(path):
if not os.path.isdir(os.path.join(path, i)):
result.append(i)
else:
result.extend(recursive_search(os.path.join(path, i)))
return result
def myview(request):
templates = []
# the next 2 lines handles templates in explicit template
directories
for path in TEMPLATE_DIRS:
templates.extend(recursive_search(path))
# the next 2 will handle template dir generated py the
appdirectories loader excluding contrib apps
for app in INSTALLED_APPS:
if app.startswith('proj'):
if os.path.exists(os.path.join(ABSPATH_TO_PROJ,
app.split('.')[-1], 'templates')):
templates.extend(recursive_search(os.path.join(ABSPATH_TO_PROJ,
app.split('.')[-1], 'templates')))
well, you have a list of templates with which you can do as you
please. surely you'll want to keep track of the actual path django
uses to locate these templates, you can do so by tweaking the
recursive_search funct a little
