Django CMS Self-Assessment Questionnaires
This is a Django app that provides some generic building blocks for creating self-assessment questionnaires using Django CMS (2.4.x).
Quick Start
(assuming you already have a working Django CMS project)
Install django-cms-saq and django-taggit using pip
pip install django-cms-saq django-taggit
Add cms_saq and taggit to your INSTALLED_APPS
INSTALLED_APPS = ( … ‘taggit’, ‘cms_saq’, … )
Add cms_saq.urls to your urls.py
urlpatterns = patterns(‘’, … url(r’^saq/’, include(‘cms_saq.urls’), … )
The django-cms-saq plugins should now be available to add to your CMS pages.
Available Plugins
Questions
The core of django-cms-saq is the question plugins. Each question is uniquely identified by its slug. Answers to questions are be stored with references to their slug and the users that submitted them.
There is no formal grouping of questions in the models, so there’s no concept of a questionnaire. Questions are merely plugins placed on pages. Where you need to aggregate answers to questions (eg. for average/total scores for a series of questions grouped on a page, or in a section), you can use tags.
Question Types
Single Choice Question
Displays a list of radio buttons, from which a user can select a single answer.
Multi Choice Question
Displays a list of checkboxes, from which a user can select one or more answers.
Scores for multi-choice questions will be the sum of the scores for all the chosen answers.
Free Text Question
Displays a text input box.
Free text questions are not scored. They are simply for collecting information about the user (eg. name / address / company details).
Drop-down Question
Displays a select box.
Grouped Drop-down Question
Displays a select box with optgroups.
Sectioned Scoring
This is a simple analysis plugin. It displays aggregate total scores for questions grouped by tags. Scores are displayed as percentages of the maximum score available for each group.
Progress Bar
This simply adds a progress bar to any page that is part of the questionnaire. It displays the number of answered questions out of the total available in the entire tree. You can also filter out optional questions to show progress on required questions only (though this won’t count answers to optional questions, so might be misleading).
Bulk Answer
Useful for ‘skip this section’ type functionality, this allows the insertion of a button into the page that marks all single-choice questions with a given answer. It only works on questions where the given answer value is one of the options and disregards any other user input.
Adding your own analysis – how to access user submissions
Each user submission is stored in a cms_saq.models.Submission object, which references the user, the question and the answer(s), as well as containing a score calculated at submission. For some guidance on creating a plugin to display your own analysis (and how to query submissions by question tags), take a look at the source code for cms_saq.cms_plugins.SectionedScoringPlugin.
Integration with django-lazysignup
If you add SAQ_LAZYSIGNUP=True to your settings.py, the cms_saq.views.submit view will use the allow_lazy_user decorator from django-lazysignup.
