Using Templatetags
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

#. You can use ``jformat`` filter to format your dates in templates:

.. code:: html

{% load jformat %}
{{ my_date|jformat }} {# default formatting #}
{{ my_date|jformat:"%A %d %B %Y %H:%M" }} {# specific formatting #}

Admin Interface
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

#. Create foo/admin.py

.. code:: python

from foo.models import Bar,BarTime
from django.contrib import admin
import django_jalali.admin.filterspecs #you need to import this for adding filter in admin interface
import django_jalali.admin as jadmin #you need import this for adding jalali calander widget

class BarAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
list_filter = ['date']

admin.site.register(Bar, BarAdmin)

class BarTimeAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
list_filter = ['datetime']

admin.site.register(BarTime, BarTimeAdmin)

#. Config admin interface and fire up your django and enjoy using jalali
date !
