Synopsis

django-xlivesettings is a fork of django-livesettings provided by bkroeze. Why X? Because it's eXtra. Firstly it was forked on Bitbucket and then moved to GitHub.

Main differences

• Django 1.5 support.
• Little model definition fix.
• Code is more adapted for I18N.
• Settings groups are displayed via jQuery tabs.
• Localized strings support added.

Installation

You can install either as PyPi package:

pip install django-xlivesettings

or from your local sources:

python setup.py install

No new dependencies were added.

Test-project example: Real project example (flavoured with Grappelli):

Localized strings

You can view a kind of presentation on Slideshare (strictly talking, it's a group of screenshots). It shows, that you can set localized string values for settings keys. Target laguages are specified by LANGUAGES in project's settings file.
