Installation

The preferred way to install is via pip

pip3 install django-bootstrap-sidebar

but you can install in develop mode cloning this repo but static files are not included in the repo. See Customize bootstrap theme section for details.

After installing your Django instance in settings.py, add bootstrapsidebar before django.contrib.auth since some auth templates are overridden.

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'bootstrapsidebar'
    'django.contrib.auth',
    ...
]

Testing example base-templates

To test the sidebar and login pages add to urls.py:

from django.views.generic import TemplateView
from django.contrib.auth import views as auth_views

urlpatterns = [
    ...
    path('demo',TemplateView.as_view(template_name="bootstrap_base.html"),name='demo'),
    path('popovers',TemplateView.as_view(template_name="bootstrap_popovers.html"), name="popovers"),
    path('login',auth_views.LoginView.as_view(), name="login"),

Pages can be tested at:

Blocks available in page layout

The base template (bootstrap_base.html) includes the following hierarchical blocks:

  • block custom-css
  • block head
  • block page-wrapper: to override full page, included sidebar.
    • block sidebar
    • block navbar: to override top navbar
      • navbar-links: only to add links in default template navbar.
    • block messages: by default this block uses snippets/show_messages.html
    • block content
    • block footer
  • block after-bootstrap-js: used to run extra javascript like to enable Bootstrap Popovers. See below details

The registration/login.html is an example page using base-template without sidebar.

Customize bootstrap theme

Install the package in dev mode is recommended if you want to customize the Bootstrap Theme. First clone this repo and install in dev mode:

pip install -e ./django-bootstrap-sidebar

Bootstrap static files and fonts are not included in the repo. They are generated/downloaded with the commands of makefile but the node environment and npm are required.

Bootstrap can be customized at file bootstrap-theme/custom.scss. An easy way to create a new customization is some online theme builder like https://bootstrap.build/ and download the custom.scss.

To generate/upgrade static files makefile automates the process, run make:

make

Enable Bootstrap Popovers

Due performance reasons popovers are not default enabled. One way is to enable popovers everywhere, which requires an extra javascript after the Bootstrap javascript. The last solution is not optimal, but it is a simple way, a detailed instructions are available at Bootstrap Popovers

The block after-bootstrap-js is intended to enable popovers and the following code snippet from Bootstrap can be used:

{% block after-bootstrap-js %}
<script>
const popoverTriggerList = document.querySelectorAll('[data-bs-toggle="popover"]')
const popoverList = [...popoverTriggerList].map(popoverTriggerEl => new bootstrap.Popover(popoverTriggerEl))
</script>
{% endblock %}

A full example is available at template bootstrap_popovers.html
