What is the most efficient way to check if a template exists in Django? I was thinking of catching the TemplateDoesNotExist exception, but maybe there is a more Djangoistic way to do it?
Thanks for your help!
I don’t think you’ll be able to do this without catching this exception, but you could use
django.template.loader.get_template(template_name)in your try statement instead of a optimist call of render_to_response. (If you are not already doing this…)
