代码

def current_datetime(request):
	now = datetime.datetime.now()
	t = get_template('current_datetime.html')
	html = t.render(Context({'current_date': now}))
return HttpResponse(html)

分析

问题出在 t.render() 上 在Django2.0.5中

get_template()返回的Template对象的render方法上，让我们看一下render方法的源码

def render(self, context=None, request=None):
    context=make_context(context,request,autoescape=self.backend.engine.autoescape)
    try:
        return self.template.render(context)
    except TemplateDoesNotExist as exc:
        reraise(exc, self.backend)

看第二行，调用了make_context(), 再看 make_context() 的源码

def make_context(context, request=None, **kwargs):
    """
    Create a suitable Context from a plain dict and optionally an HttpRequest.
    """
    if context is not None and not isinstance(context, dict):
        raise TypeError('context must be a dict rather than %s.' % context.__class__.__name__)
    if request is None:
        context = Context(context, **kwargs)
    else:
        # The following pattern is required to ensure values from
        # context override those from template context processors.
        original_context = context
        context = RequestContext(request, **kwargs)
        if original_context:
            context.push(original_context)
    return context

看到第五行，此时会检查context是否为一个字典，目的是在随后为了使用context创建一个Context实例

结论

不要给Template对象的render()方法传递Context对象，其会使用传入的字典，自动创建一个Context对象，以供使用
