django-bom 1.82

A simple Django app to manage a bill of materials.

BOM

BOM is a simple Django app to manage a bill of materials. It is a level up from an excel spreadsheet including an indented bill of materials, Octopart price match, Google Drive integration, and more. It is written in Python 3.7 and Django 2.

BOM can be added to an existing (or new) Django project, or stand alone on its own, which can be more convenient if you're interested in tweaking the tool.

An example of the app in use can be seen here.

If you already have a django project, you can skip to Add Django Bom To Your App, otherwise Start From Scratch: Add to new Django project to add it to a new django project, or Start From Scratch: Use as standalone Django project.

Start From Scratch: Add to a new Django project

1. To start from scratch we recommend setting up a virtual environment

virtualenv -p python3 mysite
cd mysite
source bin/activate

2. From here install django, and set up your project.

pip install django
django-admin startproject mysite
cd mysite
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py createsuperuser # make a user for your development environment

3. Continue on to Add Django Bom To Your App.

Add Django Bom To Your App

django-bom is a reusable django application. If you don't already have a django project, you can follow some quick steps below to get up and running, or read about creating your first django app here. Note that django-bom currently supports python 2.7.

pip install django-bom

1. Add "bom" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this::

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...
    'bom',
    'social_django', # to enable google drive sync in bom
    'materializecssform',
]

2. Update your URLconf in your project urls.py like this::

path('bom/', include('bom.urls')),

And don't forget to import include:

from django.conf.urls import include

3. Update your settings.py to add the bom context processor 'bom.context_processors.bom_config', to your TEMPLATES variable, and create a new empty dictionary BOM_CONFIG.

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        ...
        'OPTIONS': {
            'context_processors': [
                ...
                'bom.context_processors.bom_config',
            ],
        },
    },
]

and

BOM_CONFIG = {}

4. Run python manage.py migrate to create the bom models.

5. Start the development server python manage.py runserver and visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/ to manage the bom (you'll need the Admin app enabled).

6. Visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/bom/ to begin.

Start From Scratch: Use as a standalone Django project

1. To start from scratch we recommend setting up a virtual environment

virtualenv -p python3 mysite
cd mysite
source bin/activate

2. From here install django, and set up your project.

git clone https://github.com/mpkasp/django-bom.git
pip install -r requirements.txt
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py runserver

Customize Base Template

The base template can be customized to your pleasing. Just add the following configuration to your settings.py:

BOM_CONFIG = {
    'base_template': 'base.html',
}

where base.html is your base template.

Octopart Integration

For part matching, make sure to add your Octopart api key to your settings.py in the BOM_CONFIG dictionary.

BOM_CONFIG = {
    'octopart_api_key': 'supersecretkey',
}

You can get an Octopart api key here.

Google Drive Integration

Make sure to add the following to your settings.py:

AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
    'social_core.backends.google.GoogleOpenId',
    'social_core.backends.google.GoogleOAuth2',
    'social_core.backends.google.GoogleOAuth',
    'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',
)

SOCIAL_AUTH_GOOGLE_OAUTH2_SCOPE = ['email', 'profile', 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive', 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.login']
SOCIAL_AUTH_GOOGLE_OAUTH2_AUTH_EXTRA_ARGUMENTS = {
    'access_type': 'offline',
    'approval_prompt': 'auto'
}

And if you're using https on production add:

SOCIAL_AUTH_REDIRECT_IS_HTTPS = not DEBUG
