902 PointsDidn't find an URL for your view
I am trying to create an URL for my class-based view, which has a get method, returns an HttpResponse, and is instantiated using the as_view() method in the URL pattern list. I can't see why the error "Didn't find an URL for your view" is happening?
from django.conf.urls import url, include
from . import views
urlpatterns = [
(r'^$', views.WelcomeView.as_view(), name="WelcomeView"),
]
from django.views.generic import View
from django.http import HttpResponse
class WelcomeView(View):
def get(self, request):
return HttpResponse("hi")

objects.
⢠call the url()
function with the expressions within the parens
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!!

The best thing I can offer is check indentation in your code and your imports are correct.
Try running the code again? Sometimes some funny things happen with the code engine behind the scenes. ;)
