django-history
==============

**django-history** helps you track all data changes for registered models.

Features
--------
- Tracks ForeignKeys and ManyToManyFields

::
For Django 1.5+, Python 2.7+.

Add to models you want to track history for, eg.

from djangodirtyfield.mixins import DirtyFieldMixin
class BaseModel(models.Model, DirtyFieldMixin):
...

Add to available apps for templates to work:

INSTALLED_APPS += (
'djangohistory',)

To enable storing request.user information:

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES += (
'djangohistory.middleware.ThreadLocals',)

Or, if already a similar setup, configure:
DJANGO_HISTORY_SETTINGS['GET_CURRENT_REQUEST'] = ('my.middleware', 'current_request_function')

View changesets by enabling routing:

urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^history/', include('djangohistory.urls')),
)

All changes:
/history/latest

Changes by Content Type:
/history/by/?ct_id=

Changes by specific Model instance:
/history/by/?ct_id=&id=


Diffs for changes can be enabled optionally:

DJANGOHISTORY_DIFF_ENABLED = True
pip install diff-match-patch==20121119
