django-copy
Probably the smallest and simplest djangocopy for Django.
While it is extremely simple, it supports some features that I haven't found in other djangocopy frameworks out there. Namely you can create pages for multiple languages but also for multiple locations or any conbination of both
Usage
Installation
-
Use pip to instal the latest stable release
pip install django-copyYou can also install a local copy by running
setup.py installat the top directory of django-copy -
Add
djangocopyand dependencies toINSTALLED_APPSin the project settings (see dependencies below)
INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.sites',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
'django.contrib.humanize',
'django.contrib.sitemaps',
...
'ckeditor',
'ckeditor_uploader',
'simple_history',
'djangocopy',
...
]
...
3. Setup `DJANGOCOPY_TEMPLATES` and `DJANGOCOPY_IMAGES` to define where uploaded template and image files are stored.
For example:
```
DJANGOCOPY_TEMPLATES = 'djangocopy/templates/'
DJANGOCOPY_IMAGES = 'djangocopy/images/'
```
These paths will sit below `MEDIA_ROOT`
4. Add the media folder to the `DIRS` list in `TEMPLATES` in order to serve uploaded templates. For example (if `DJANGOCOPY_TEMPLATES` is set as above:
```
TEMPLATES = [
{
...
'DIRS': ['media/'],
...
},
]
```
5. Add `djangocopy.middleware.LocalisationMiddleware` to `MIDDLEWARE` in the project settings file (OR see alternative below)
6. If not set already, set `MEDIA_ROOT` and `MEDIA_URL` in settings
### Dependencies:
Django-copy depends on the following packages
markdown django-jsonfield django-simple-history django-ckeditor django-ckeditor-filer
# django.contrib.auth settings
#
LOGIN_URL = '/accounts/login'
LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = '/'
LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URL = '/accounts/login'
# CKEditor
#
CKEDITOR_BASEPATH = "{}ckeditor/ckeditor/".format(STATIC_URL)
CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PATH = 'uploads/'
CKEDITOR_CONFIGS = {
...
}
In urls.py add
path('ckeditor/', include('ckeditor_uploader.urls')),
path('accounts/', include('django.contrib.auth.urls')),
path('filer/', include('filer.urls')),
path('djangocopy/', include('djangocopy.urls')),
Optional:
Localisation Middleware
If you follow step 6 above, all views in the project will get access to the content stored in the djangocopy app. That carries a small overhead so if you want to avoid that you can instead add @decorator_from_middleware(LocalisationMiddleware) to each of the views that will require access to DB stored content.
For example:
from django.utils.decorators import decorator_from_middleware
from djangocopy.middleware import LocalisationMiddleware
@decorator_from_middleware(LocalisationMiddleware)
def my_view
