HTTPResponse instance has no attribute 'status_code' in python/django
Question: I have used python httplib to implement REST api to connect with Django
tastypie. But whenever i try to get the status code it is showing following
error

    
    
    AttributeError at /actions/login
    HTTPResponse instance has no attribute 'status_code'
    

My code goes below

    
    
    import hashlib
    import hmac
    from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
    from django.template import RequestContext
    
    def loginAction(request):
        username=request.POST['email']
        password=request.POST['password']
        import httplib, urllib
        params = urllib.urlencode({'username': username})
        #hash username here to authenticate
        digest=hmac.new("qnscAdgRlkIhAUPY44oiexBKtQbGY0orf7OV1I50", str(request.POST['password']),hashlib.sha1).hexdigest()
        auth=username+":"+digest
        headers = {"Content-type": "application/json","Accept": "text/plain","Authorization":auth}
        conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("localhost",8000)
        conn.request("POST", "/api/ecp/profile/", params, headers)
        conn.set_debuglevel(1)
        response = conn.getresponse()
        return response
    


Answer: You must return a django.http.HttpResponse, not a httplib.HttpResponse

See: (httplib)
<http://docs.python.org/library/httplib.html#httplib.HTTPResponse>

and: (django) <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/request-response/>
