django-smart-admin

SmartAdmin is a set of small Django Admin utilities that aims to remove some of the common annoying configuration issues:

It is not intended to be a fully replacement of the official Admin, but only offers a set of mixin/utilities the often ( at least for me) need to be copied/pasted in each project.

Bonus

• easily group models by context instead by app
• display admin logentry for any user
• display group members
• display user permissions
• display permission owners
• Display all columns ModelAdmin mixin
• log added/removed permissions for User/Group
• log added/removed groups for User
• ability to set readonly_fields = ('__all__',) (ReadOnlyMixin)
• display all model fields in changelist (DisplayAllMixin)
• automatically creates filter for each indexed field (SmartAutoFilterMixin)
• improved fieldset allows the use of __others__ to include any field not included in others fieldsets (FieldsetMixin)
• ability to customise Autocomplete labels
• user defined "site panels"

Components

• LinkedObjectsMixin
• ReadOnlyMixin
• FieldsetMixin
• DisplayAllMixin
