Do not rely on notifiction module being imported
This has worked so far mostly by accident, but it turned out to be
brittle while writing tests. This makes sure that the notification
module is always imported before use.
from django.contrib.flatpages.views import flatpage
from django.http import Http404
from django.conf import settings
class FlatpageFallbackMiddleware(object):
def process_response(self, request, response):
if response.status_code != 404:
return response # No need to check for a flatpage for non-404 responses.
try:
return flatpage(request, request.path_info)
# Return the original response if any errors happened. Because this
# is a middleware, we can't assume the errors will be caught elsewhere.
except Http404:
return response
except:
if settings.DEBUG:
raise
return response
