[FIXED] Django - button redirecting to {% url 'index' %}

Issue

I can't find any solution on any article so I'm asking here. I'd like to make button which is gonna redirect user to specific url. I have already did it this way:

<button onclick="location.href='create_recipe/'" type="button" >Create new Recipe</button>

but instead of passing whole link I'd like to use {% url 'some_view' %} but I do not have an idea how I should do that. Is it even possible to do that ?

It has to be <button>,

edit:

something like:

<button type="button" class="btn btn-outline-secondary"><a href="{% url 'index' %}">Create new Recipe</a></button>

also does not work

Solution

You can do this by adding this to the button:

onclick="goToSomeView()"

And then add this in script tag of html file:

<script type="text/javascript">
   function goToSomeView(){
    document.location.href = "{% url 'some_view' %}"
   }
</script>
