>From a brief glance at the RTD (and assuming you are using CBV's), it looks like you should create a standard ListView and then override get_queryset() with the extra filter to narrow down the list of models retrieved:
http://django-taggit.readthedocs.org/en/latest/api.html#filtering You can use a (?P<tag_slug>[\w-]+) or whatever you want to name it to capture a URL parameter specifying the desired tag, and pull that parameter when adding the filter in get_queryset(). Something like this: def get_queryset(self): qs = super(ListViewName, self).get_queryset() return qs.filter(tags__name=self.kwargs.get('tag_slug', None)) That works for filtering via a single tag (which sounds like what you are trying to do). A non-matching slug will return an empty list, and a missing slug will return all of the models without tags (I presume). For multiple tags, you should either accept GET or POST parameters from a form submission, unless you come up with some funky regex to capture multiple tags via the URL (not recommended), and modify the get_queryset() call to use __in rather than =. There shouldn't be any need to pass extra parameters to the view call. A typical ListViewName.as_view() should suffice. Everything you need should be gathered via a form submission or a URL kwarg. Full disclosure, I haven't worked with django-taggit at all, so I could be completely wrong. For completeness in my answer, in the event that I'm wrong, you can allow passing of extra arguments to the as_view() call by overriding the __init__() method of the view and adding in the extra arguments to the overridden method: def __init__(self, request, qs, **kwargs): super(ListViewName, self)__init__(**kwargs) # call the regular __init__() with the originally expected kwargs, notice that request and qs are missing self.request = request #is this the view request? It should already be available via self.request self.qs = qs You may also want to look at django-filter or django-easyfilter to provide a small form to allow users to search for tags, if needed.
