Django SmartBase Admin

A modern, modular, and developer-friendly admin interface for Django.
Built to speed up development of internal tools and admin panels — beautifully and efficiently.


✨ Features

  • Fast integration with any Django project
  • Improved performance of Django List Admin using SBAdminField, database annotate() and values() to avoid direct object access
  • Simple configuration of menu structure, dashboard components, and permissions per user role
  • Enhanced Django List Admin filters: autocomplete support for related fields and filtering across all model fields
  • Ability for users to save and reuse custom filters in Django List Admin
  • Improved Django Detail Admin with autocomplete for relational fields
  • Support for "FakeInlines" – define inline-like blocks without requiring a direct model relationship
  • Easy extension of list and detail views with custom actions and corresponding views
  • Beautiful modern UI (Tailwind CSS)
  • Responsive & mobile-friendly
  • End-user ready for building SaaS or similar projects with global queryset configuration
  • Built-in audit logging — automatically tracks all admin create, update, and delete operations with full change history, snapshots, and request grouping

⚡ Quick Start

1. Install Smartbase Admin

Begin by installing the Smartbase Admin package using pip:

pip install django-smartbase-admin

Ensure that django-smartbase-admin and its dependencies are included in your Django settings. Open your settings.py file and add the following to INSTALLED_APPS:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # other apps
    "django_smartbase_admin",
    "easy_thumbnails",
    "widget_tweaks",
    "ckeditor",
    "ckeditor_uploader",
]

2. Add Admin URL Configuration

In your project’s urls.py, register the Smartbase Admin site by importing sb_admin_site and adding the path:

from django_smartbase_admin.admin.site import sb_admin_site

urlpatterns = [
    path("sb-admin/", sb_admin_site.urls),
    # other paths
]

This makes the Smartbase Admin interface accessible at /sb-admin/

3. Define the SmartBase Admin Configuration

In your project, for example in config package create a file called sbadmin_config.py with the following content:

from django_smartbase_admin.engine.configuration import SBAdminConfigurationBase, SBAdminRoleConfiguration
from django_smartbase_admin.views.dashboard_view import SBAdminDashboardView
from django_smartbase_admin.engine.menu_item import SBAdminMenuItem

config = SBAdminRoleConfiguration(
    default_view=SBAdminMenuItem(view_id="dashboard"),
    menu_items=[
        SBAdminMenuItem(view_id="dashboard", icon="All-application"),
    ],
    registered_views=[
        SBAdminDashboardView(widgets=[], title="Dashboard"),
    ],
)

class SBAdminConfiguration(SBAdminConfigurationBase):
    def get_configuration_for_roles(self, user_roles):
        return config

4. Reference the Configuration in settings.py

SB_ADMIN_CONFIGURATION = "config.sbadmin_config.SBAdminConfiguration"

5. Add Locale Middleware

Add the following middleware to support internationalization:

MIDDLEWARE = [
    # Other middleware...
    'django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware',
]

Enable Django i18n URLs so {% url 'set_language' %} is available for the navigation language picker:

from django.urls import include, path

urlpatterns = [
    path("i18n/", include("django.conf.urls.i18n")),
]

🔍 Audit Logging

Built-in optional audit app that automatically tracks all admin create, update, delete, and bulk operations with field-level diffs, snapshots, and request grouping. Just add "django_smartbase_admin.audit" to INSTALLED_APPS and run migrations.

See AGENTS.md — Audit Logging for setup and configuration.
