I am new to the world of restful programming and have a Django website. My goal is to dynamically load a part of the website.
Currently, my workflow is as follows:
When I call a URL (such as localhost:8080/index), it routes to the Django view, which retrieves data from the database (specifically MongoDB). The view then fetches the template, renders everything together, and sends it back to the browser.
What I aim to enhance is:
With an already opened URL like localhost:8080/index, when I trigger an event (e.g., click on a link), I want to send a request to the database to load additional data.
My inquiry is:
What steps should I take to securely connect JavaScript/ajax with my MongoDB?
Furthermore, I am contemplating utilizing a front-end MVC framework (considering Backbone due to my limited knowledge) to handle front-end requests. For instance, localhost:8080/index#2 would return objects with an id : 2 from my database.
