django-admin-watchdog

Admin watchdog

Admin watchdog is a simple Django app to register and view logs in the django admin backoffice.

Tested with Django 2.2 through 4.0.

Quick start

Add “admin_watchdog” to your INSTALLED_APPS settings.
Run python manage.py migrate to create the admin watchdog model.

Edit your LOGGING settings to use the admin watchdog handler. For example, to replace the default mail handler:

LOGGING = {
    'version': 1,
    'disable_existing_loggers': False,
    'handlers': {
        'admin_watchdog': {
            'level': 'ERROR',
            'class': 'admin_watchdog.handlers.AdminWatchdogHandler',
        }
    },
    'loggers': {
        'django.request': {
            'handlers': ['admin_watchdog'],
            'level': 'ERROR',
            'propagate': False,
        }
    }
}

Your error logs will now be registered. Visit your admin backoffice to see the log entries.
You can run the tests by doing make test.
