This package used to add a button functionality to the change list columns in the django admin, it uses the action methods used in the ModelAdmin
I wrote this package as an implementation for this article, it not hard to write the button yourself
- Install the app
pip install django-admin-buttons
- Add the app to the INSTALLED_APPS above the admin and static apps
INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django_admin_buttons', # add here
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',- Use the button as needed
from django.contrib import admin
from django_admin_buttons.admin_button import AdminActionButton
def Test_function(modeladmin, request, queryset):
# write you implementation here
pass
class AdminTest(admin.ModelAdmin):
# add the button
list_display = ('id', 'name', 'button')
# register the function
actions = [Test_function]
# create the function that displays the button
@admin.display()
def button(self, obj):
return AdminActionButton(obj.id, 'Test_function', disabled = False, Class='btn-primary', label=None).render()BUTTON PARAMETERS
