   pip install django-adminutilities

2. Add adminutilities to your INSTALLED_APPS setting, make sure it’s above django.contrib.admin like this:

   INSTALLED_APPS = [
       'adminutilities',
       'django.contrib.admin',
   ]

3. Add adminutilities.middleware.GetAllAdminToolFunctionsMiddleware to your MIDDLEWARE setting like this:

   MIDDLEWARE = [
       ...
       'adminutilities.middleware.GetAllAdminToolFunctionsMiddleware',

       ...
       path('admin/', admin.site.urls),

Usage

1. Create a new file admin_tools.py in your app folder, and define your custom functions, for example:

   from adminutilities.decorators import admin_tool
   
   @admin_tool
   def my_custom_function():
        return 'Hello, world!'

2. Go to /admin/adminutilities/ and you will see the registered functions. If you click the function, it will execute the function and show the result.

   python manage.py adminutilities main.my_custom_function
