Notifications are short emails sent to users by Facebook or Twitter to inform users of some changes.

django-email-notification allows backoffice users to send short email notifications to django registered users or users you only know the email about what is new or changed from django’s admin or a dedicated view. And then track their clicks.

installation:

pip install django-email-notification

settings:

NOTIFICATION_TEMPLATE = 'email'  # name of the templates to use (without extension). Must have a .txt and a .html version
NOTIFICATION_FROM_EMAIL = ''  # sender email, typically no-reply@you-site.com
NOTIFICATION_FROM_NAME = ''   # sender name
NOTIFICATION_UNSUBSCRIBE_REDIRECT = '/you-unsubscribed/'  # possible page redirection after unsubscription
NOTIFICATION_REGISTRATION_MESSAGE_TAG = 'notification'  # allow filtering notification messages

# Description of linkable objects.
NOTIFICATION_ASSOCIATED_OBJECTS = (
    {   'name': 'products',                                     # reference name, used in forms and templates
        'description': u"New products",                         # Human readable description
        'long_description': u"Last products added to our site", # Long description
        'class': 'project.application.models.Product',          # path to the class model
        'title_attr': 'product_description',                    # Model instance field or callable to display in form
        'order_by': '-creation_date',                           # order to sort Model instances in form and email template
        'manager': '',                                          # manager to use if so
    },
)

Email template:

In template, linked objects can be processed this way by example:

{% if object_types.OBJECT_NAME.instances %}
    <ul><li>{{ object_types.OBJECT_NAME.long_description }}
    <ul>{% for instance in object_types.OBJECT_NAME.instances %}
    <li>{% include 'notification/emails/tracked_link.html' %}</li>
    {% endfor %}</ul>
    </li></ul>
{% endif %}

Messages sent through the django messages framework filtered like this:

{% if messages %}
    {% for message in messages %}
        {% if 'notification' in message.tags %}
            <span class="email-registration-message lvl-{{ message.level }}">{{ message }}</span>
        {% endif %}
    {% endfor %}
{% endif %}
