django-fav

A simple reusable app for django that makes it easy to deal with faving and unfaving any object from any application.

It comes with a Graphene (GraphQL) Query to enable favs in your queries.

Requirements

• Python 3.4+
• Django 1.11

Installation

pip install django-fav

• Add the app to your settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
  ...
  "fav",
  ...
]

• Sync your database:

python manage.py migrate

Usage:

Favorites Manager

• Create a Favorite instance for a user and object:

>>> from django.contrib.auth.models import User
>>> from music.models import Song
>>> user = User.objects.get(username='gengue')
>>> song = Song.objects.get(pk=1)
>>> fav = Favorite.objects.create(user, song)

or:

>>> fav = Favorite.objects.create(user, 1, Song)

or:

>>> fav = Favorite.objects.create(user, 1, "music.Song")

• Get the objects favorited by a given user:

>>> from django.contrib.auth.models import User
>>> user = User.objects.get(username='gengue')
>>> Favorite.objects.for_user(user)
>>> [<Favorite: Favorite object 1>, <Favorite: Favorite object 2>, <Favorite: Favorite object 3>]

• Now, get user favorited objects belonging to a given model:

>>> from django.contrib.auth.models import User
>>> from music.models import Song
>>> user = User.objects.get(username='gengue')
>>> Favorite.objects.for_user(user, model=Song)
>>> [<Favorite: Favorite object 1>, <Favorite: Favorite object 2>, <Favorite: Favorite object 3>]

• Get the favorited object instances of a given model favorited by any user:

>>> from music.models import Song
>>> Favorite.objects.for_model(Song)
>>> [<Favorite: Favorite object 1>, <Favorite: Favorite object 2>, <Favorite: Favorite object 3>]

• Get a Favorite instance for a given object and user:

>>> from django.contrib.auth.models import User
>>> from music.models import Song
>>> user = User.objects.get(username='gengue')
>>> song = Song.objects.get(pk=1)
>>> fav = Favorite.objects.get_favorite(user, song)

• Get all Favorite instances for a given object

>>> from music.models import Song
>>> song = Song.objects.get(pk=1)
>>> fav = Favorite.objects.for_object(song)

Graphql

In settings.py, map your grahene queries to your django models

FAV_MODELS = {
    'CurrentUser': 'core.user',
    'User': 'core.user',
    'Track': 'listen.Track',
}

Add url_renditions.graphql_schema.Query to your root query and mutation.

import graphene
import fav.graphql_schema

class Query(
        ...
        fav.graphql_schema.Query,
        graphene.ObjectType):
    pass

class Mutation(
        ...
        fav.graphql_schema.Mutation,
        graphene.ObjectType):
    pass


schema = graphene.Schema(query=Query, mutation=Mutation)

Query

Then, you can ask for:

query {
  isInUserFavorites(objectId: "VHJhY2s6OA==")
}

and you get

{
  "data": {
    "isInUserFavorites": false
  }
}

Mutation

mutation {
  favorite(input: {objectId: "VHJhY2s6OA=="}) {
    deleted
    created
  }
}

and you get

{
  "data": {
    "favorite": {
      "deleted": null,
      "created": true,
    }
  }
}
