Project description

Groundwork is a small set of template tags and filters that simplifies working with Zurb Foundation. Many common django components like paginators, messages, and forms can be used natively with this package. These components get wrapped in nice pretty Foundation goodness.

Naming Note

This package was called Groundwork instead of Foundation to avoid collision with other packages of that name (or similar). It also symbolizes the simplicity of the tools this package provides. Like Foundation itself, this package just provides you with the groundwork needed to make sexy web apps. It is not intended to be an entire framework or provide programmtic equivalences to all the foundation components.

Quick Start

  1. Install Groundwork using pip:

    pip install django-groundwork

  2. Add “groundwork” to your INSTALLED_APPS like so:

    INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'groundwork',
)

Available Tags/Filters

To use the Groundwork tags in your template, include at the top:

{% load groundwork_tags %}

See templates/goundwork/examples/base.html for examples on how to get started with Foundation quickly. Or, you can choose to use is as your base page to help you get started. Simply put as the first line in your templates:

{% extends 'groundwork/examples/base.html' %}

To include the Foundation Javascript files (in your html <head>), use the groundwork_js tag. You can specify a filename like foundation.abide.js or you can leave it blank to include the foundation.min.js file:

{% groundwork_js %}
{% groundwork_js 'foundation.abide' %}

To include the Foundation vendor Javascript files, use the groundwork_vendor tag with the name of the script name:

{% groundwork_vendor 'jquery' %}

To include the Foundation StyleSheet files (in your html <head>), use the groundwork_css tag:

{% groundwork_css 'normalize' %}
{% groundwork_css 'foundation.min' %}

To use the Foundation Icons pack use the groundwork_icon tag with the name of the Icon class. You can find examples of all the included icons by going to /groundwork/icons after adding the Groundwork URLConf, it also accepts optional size and classes arguments:

{% groundwork_icon 'info' %}
{% groundwork_icon 'info' '5em' 'text-centered' %}

Foundation alert boxes are a really nice way to inform the user of the result of completing some action, like logging in, or saving a file. Much of Django uses the django.contrib.messages framework to do that, and Groundwork provides a nice wrapper to display them with Foundation alerts. The included example base.html will automatically display messages from the messages framework for you, but you can also use the groundwork_alert tag for custom alerts:

{% groundwork_alert 'this is a message!' %}

Some views that display a list of models, like the generic ListView class can make good use of paginators. Groundwork provides a super easy to use paginator tag called groundwork_paginator. Just make sure to set the paginate_by attribute on your ListView view to enable automatic pagination. The tag takes no arguments:

{% groundwork_paginator %}
