SALTISE-user-feedback 1.1.2

A Django app to collect and store user feedback.

SALTISE-user-feedback is a simple Django app to collect and store user feedback.

Quick start

1. Add the UserFeedback app to your requirements, then pip install:

   pip install SALTISE-user-feedback

1. Add “user_feedback” to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this:

   INSTALLED_APPS = [
       ...
       'user_feedback',
       ...
   ]

2. Include the user_feedback URLconf in your project urls.py like this:

   url("feedback/", include("user_feedback.urls")),

3. Migrate:

   python manage.py migrate

4. Setup an EMAIL_BACKEND in your project’s settings.py.

5. Add admin emails to ADMINS’s list of tuples in your project’s settings.py:

   ADMINS = [('John', '[e-mail]'), ('Mary', '[e-mail]')]

6. If ‘/accounts/login/’ is not active, make sure to have a LOGIN_URL in your settings.py.

7. Import user_feedback’s minified script in your base template (you can override default styles using global css names):

   <script src="{% static 'user_feedback/js/app.min.js' %}" defer="true"></script>

8. Place the following element in templates where you would like for users to offer feedback:

   <div id="user-feedback-app"></div>

9. If not in the template already, add a csrf token:

   {% csrf_token %}

10. Inject the app into the DOM, customizing props as needed. Assuming django-csp is installed:

    <script nonce="{{ request.csp_nonce }}">
        window.addEventListener("load", function () {
        const feedback = () => {
            return user_feedback.h(user_feedback.App, {
            acceptText: "{% trans 'Send' %}",
            cancelText: "{% trans 'Cancel' %}",
            charCountText: "{% trans 'characters remaining' %}",
            description: "{% trans 'Leave feedback or get help' %}",
            feedbackTypes: [
                { value: 1, text: "Bug report" },
                { value: 2, text: "Feature request" },
                { value: 3, text: "General feedback" }
            ],
            menuFeedbackText: "{% trans 'Give Feedback' %}",
            menuHelpText: "{% trans 'Tutorials and Forums' %}",
            menuHelpUrl: "#",
            placeholder: "{% trans 'Let us know what is on your mind...' %}",
            snackbarError:
            "{% trans 'An error occurred.  Please try again later.' %}",
            snackbarSuccess: "{% trans 'Thanks for your feedback!' %}",
            text: "",
            title: "{% trans 'How can we improve your experience?' %}",
            url: "{% url 'user_feedback:post' %}",
            nonce: "{{ request.csp_nonce }}",
            });
        };
        user_feedback.render(
            feedback(),
            document.getElementById("user-feedback-app")
        );
        });
    </script>
