ajax request in django

Question

I implemented the post like feature using ajax in the Django project, but it doesn't work. And it gives a 404 error in the console. template.html

<script>
 $(document).ready(function(){
 $(".line-button").click(function(){
 var post_id = $(this).closest("post").data("post-id");
 var button = $(button);
 $.ajax({
 type: 'POST',
 url: 'like-post/',
 data: {'post_id': post_id, 'csrfmiddlewaretoken':'{{csrf_token}}'},
 
 success: function(data){
 if(data.liked){
 button.text('unLike');
 }else{
 button.text('Like');
 }
 $(".likes-count").text(data.post_likes_count);
 }
 })
 })
 })
</script>

views.py

@require_POST
def like_post(request):
 post_id = request.POST.get("post_id")
 post = get_object_or_404(Post, id=post_id)
 if request.user in post.likes.all():
 post.likes.remove(request.user)
 liked = False
 else:
 post.likes.add(request.user)
 liked = True
 post_likes_count = post.likes.count()
 response_data = {
 'liked': liked, 'post_likes_count': post_likes_count
 }
 return JsonResponse(response_data)

urls.py

path('like-post/', views.like_post, name="like_post"),

• David: You're using relative paths, does the resulting URL being requested from the client match what the server expects?
• Samyar: Yes, I used the same path to execute the view.
• C3roe: What is the URL of the page you are on, when you are triggering this?
• rob: You need to do some basic debugging. You're getting a 404. You have get_object_or_404. Ensure you're getting the post_id and that you have a corresponding object.
