Django Template Names is a small mixin which allows you to simply normalize your CBV templates names.

TemplateNames mixin provides you implementation for get_template_names() which generates a tuple of templates names.

Templates names depends on app name and CBV object class name. This allows you to forget about manually editing the template_name variable every time and provides a standard automatic build of the template names.

The simplest way to install django-template-names is using pip:

pip install django-template-names

from template_names import TemplateNames
class Detail(TemplateNames, DetailView):
 ...
 pass

See tests.py for more insight.
