I am working on Django and already open a project according to guide from their site.
Now I have the project and when I start it on anaconda prompt I can see it on localhost:8000.
(I run these lines- pipenv shell , python manage.py runserver)
it shows me the content of template of HTML page name it works.
I want to try the opportunity of sending mail in Gmail in python.
I want to make HTML file that has a button that if it clicked email will send.
I have the code to send mail but I'm not sure how to connect HTML page to python file and how do I represent it in the localhost.
Thanks

If you have a python file you need to run on the server side to send the email, you can use an anchor tag: <a href="{% url 'send_email_view_url' %}">Send Email</a> in your html template and define a view in your views.py file that does something similar to
def send_email_view(request, *args, **kwargs):
#send email function here
return HttpResponseRedirect('url_for_redirect')
You can set url_for_redirect to the original page.
Something tells me this is not best practice though. If you needed to do it on the server side, I'd do it with .ajax() in jQuery or Javascript, but you seem to just be getting into django so I don't wanna bother you with that
