A simple Django app to display national flags for languages.

Project description

Flags is a simple Django app that helps display national flags. For efficiency, there is just one huge PNG file with all the flags, and individual flags are selected for display using CSS trickery.

Quick start

  1. Add “language_flags” to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this:

    INSTALLED_APPS = [
        ...
        'language_flags',
    ]
  2. In templates where you want to use language_flags, include the language_flags template tag library:

    {% load language_flags_tags %}
  3. You can use the flags_for_language tag to display a number of flags of nations where a language is spoken. Right now the language can be either English or German:

    {% flags_for_language COUNT LANGUAGE %}

    This will display COUNT flags for language LANGUAGE; the flags will always include the first country listed for LANGUAGE, while the remainder will be randomly selected from the other countries.
