django-fastview 0.1.0

Advanced example

Build a more complex view group with custom view classes and complex access controls:

# urls.py (for example purposes)
from fastview.viewgroups import ModelViewGroup
from fastview.permissions import Public, Login, Staff, Owner, Django
from myblog.models import Blog
from myblog.views import BlogUpdateView, BlogPublishView

class BlogViewGroup(ModelViewGroup):
    model = Blog

    # Default permission for views - any views without explicit permissions will
    # require that user is logged in
    permission = Login()

    # Make the list view public by reconfiguring it with a call to View.config()
    list_view = fastview.views.generics.ListView.config(
        permission=Public(),
    )

    # Make the detail view public by reconfiguring it with the dict shorthand format
    detail_view = dict(
        permission=Public(),
    )

    # Override update with a custom view, and limit access to staff or post owners
    update_view = BlogUpdateView.config(
        permission=Staff() | Owner("owner"),
    )

    # Use the Django permission framework to manage who can delete Blog objects
    delete_view = dict(
        permission=Django("delete"),
    )

    # Add a publish view where only staff can access, but only if it's not their own
    publish_view = BlogPublishView.config(
        permission=Staff() & ~Owner("owner"),
    )

urlpatterns = [
    url(r'^blog/', BlogViewGroup().include(namespace="blog")),
]

You may then want to create a custom templates at templates/myblog/blog/list.html and templates/myblog/blog/detail.html to change the way blog posts are rendered.
