AttributeError - module 'django.http.request' has no attribute 'META'

Question

I got this error, but I've done exactly the same:

AttributeError at /courses/ module 'django.http.request' has no attribute 'META'

The error is occuring in :

from django.shortcuts import render
from django.http import request
from django.http import HttpResponse
from .models import Course

# Create your views here.
def course_list(response):
    courses = Course.objects.all()
    return render(request, 'courses/course_list.html',{'courses':courses})

#    output=', '.join([str(course) for course in courses])
#    return HttpResponse(output)

But the server shows no issues at all.

Performing system checks...

System check identified no issues (0 silenced).

Your function parameter is called response but then you use request which is a module you import, change the field param to be called request or change its usage inside the function to be response

def course_list(request):
    courses = Course.objects.all()
    return render(request, 'courses/course_list.html',{'courses':courses})

def course_list(response):
    courses = Course.objects.all()
    return render(response, 'courses/course_list.html',{'courses':courses})

(Also, its entirely possible that you may not need to import request at all)

Yeah I realised that. I wasn't done on the course.But I did with impulse. Works fine no! Thanks again!
