Django - OnMyDesk

A Django app to build reports in a simple way.

Installation

pip install django-onmydesk

Add ‘onmydesk’ to your INSTALLED_APPS:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # ...
    'onmydesk',
]

Run ./manage.py migrate to create OnMyDesk models.

Quickstart

To create reports we need to follow just two steps:

1. Create a report class in our django app.

2. Add this report class to a config in you project settings to enable OnMyDesk to see your reports.

So, let’s do it!

Create a module called reports.py in you django app with the following content:

myapp/reports.py:

from onmydesk.core import reports

class UsersReport(reports.SQLReport):
    name = 'Users report'
    query = 'SELECT * FROM auth_user'

On your project settings, add the following config:

ONMYDESK_REPORT_LIST = [
    'myapp.reports.UsersReport',
]

Each new report must be added to this list. Otherwise, it won’t be shown on admin screen.

Now, access your OnMyDesk admin screen and you’ll see your Users report available on report creation screen.

After you create a report, it’ll be status settled up as ‘Pending’, to process it you must run process command. E.g:

$ ./manage.py process
Found 1 reports to process
Processing report #29 - 1 of 1
Report #29 processed
