Integrate VTK in Django frame work

[simwes]

Hello,

I am trying to integrate VTK app into Django so in my html template I have the following:
<script src="{% static 'js/MyWebApp.js' %}" type="text/javascript"></script>

However, I get the following error messages:
The script from “http://127.0.0.1:8000/static/js/MyWebApp.js” was loaded even though its MIME type (“text/html”) is not a valid JavaScript MIME type.
Loading failed for the <script> with source “http://127.0.0.1:8000/static/js/MyWebApp.js
And nothing appears on my browser. Do you have any suggestion ?
Thank you very much !

Django is serving the js file as text/html instead of text/javascript ?

[simwes]

I have replaced text/javascript with text/html, the error messages disappear but the browser is still empty. Also from the back end there is no error message !

[jourdain]

That's not what I said. text/javascript is required. Any console error or debug info.
Is your application working by itself? What does it do?

[simwes]

Sorry for the misunderstanding. Apart from the above-mentioned errors from the back-end I also received the following: GET /static/js/MyWebApp.js HTTP/1.1" 404 1666
This Django app is simply trying to load the test case from VTK example into html front-end script.
Do I have to compile the VTK files in the Django static folder?

[jourdain]

I can't really help you as it is a pure Django and file serving issue.

Sorry to be a pain but @simwes did you figure out the solution? I believe I'm in the same position as you. I can locally (& without Django) can view OBJ examples from a data folder. But if I integrate this into my Django framework, & place the data folder in my static folder, I get the same 404 error when the MyWebApp.js tries to locate them.

I hope you get my message! Best wishes dudes

404 means not found == url given is not valid to get to the file
