views.generic.edit.DeleteView.template_name_suffix

template_name_suffix

The DeleteView page displayed to a GET request uses a template_name_suffix of '_confirm_delete'. For example, changing this attribute to '_check_delete' for a view deleting objects for the example Author model would cause the default template_name to be 'myapp/author_check_delete.html'.

Example myapp/views.py:

from django.views.generic.edit import DeleteView
from django.urls import reverse_lazy
from myapp.models import Author

class AuthorDelete(DeleteView):
    model = Author
    success_url = reverse_lazy('author-list')

Example myapp/author_confirm_delete.html:

<form action="" method="post">{% csrf_token %}
    <p>Are you sure you want to delete "{{ object }}"?</p>
    <input type="submit" value="Confirm" />
</form>
