django-admin-field 0.0.2

Inheritance

You can create some reusable fields, for multipy usage.

class AdminSizeField(AdminFieldBase):
    DEFAULT_FIELD = 'size'
    method = staticmethod(human_size)


class FileAdmin(ModelAdmin)
    list_display = ('name', 'human_size')
    human_size = AdminSizeField()

Attributes

By default, ‘short description’ and ‘admin order field’ will be taken from the field name. But you can overide it by kwargs.

class FileAdmin(ModelAdmin)
    list_display = ('name', 'human_size')
    human_size = AdminField('size', filesizeformat,
        short_description='real size', allow_tags=True)

Foreign keys

By default ModelAdmin doesn’t allow you to use foreign keys in list_display. Feel free to do it with AdminField. It will atomaticaly optain description and sort field.

class UserFileAdmin(ModelAdmin)
    list_display = ('name', 'file__size')
    file__size = AdminField('file__size', filesizeformat)

Don’t forget to select related model.

class UserFileAdmin(ModelAdmin)
    select_related = ['file']
    list_display = ('name', 'file__size')
    file__size = AdminField('file__size', filesizeformat)

    def queryset(self, request):
        return super(AdminModelSelectRelated, self).queryset(request).select_related(*self.select_related)
