File Context provides an easy way to store different documents/attachments

Documentation
-------------

The full documentation is at https://django-file-context.readthedocs.io.

Quickstart
----------

Install Django File Context::

pip install django-file-context

Add it to your `INSTALLED_APPS`:

.. code-block:: python

INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'file_context.apps.FileContextConfig',
...
)

You need to add this to your INSTALLED_APPS, because we have our own
models.

Add Django File Context's URL patterns:

.. code-block:: python

from file_context import urls as file_context_urls


urlpatterns = [
...
url(r'^', include(file_context_urls)),
...
]

This is optional. Actually, you can include your own URLs.

Features
--------

* Generic File model so you can store different kinds of files, images,
etc, using a single model;
* Attach/Detach the file model to other models
* Cool descriptor, so you don't have to keep mangling GenericForeignKeys
inside your models.

Usage
-----

1. First of all, define your first model

:: python
from file_context.managers import Files


class MyModel(models.Model):

name = models.CharField(max_length=128)

files = Files()

2. That's it.
3. You can use the Files API to attach files to MyModel instances, using:

:: python

uploaded_file = File.objects.get(pk=1)
a = MyModel.objects.create(name='foo')
a.files.attach(uploaded_file)
a.files.detach(uploaded_file)
a.files.clear()

Running Tests
-------------

Does the code actually work?

::

source <YOURVIRTUALENV>/bin/activate
(myenv) $ pip install tox
(myenv) $ tox
