Usage

It’s only compatible with Django 1.7.2 to 1.7.8 (I tested) and probably 1.8. Don’t even try with previous versions, django-super-inlines relies on changes that happened between 1.6 and 1.7.2.

For design reasons, you can’t nest inlines inside tabular inlines, only inside stacked inlines.

1. pip install django-super-inlines

2. Add 'super_inlines', to INSTALLED_APPS before 'django.contrib.admin',

3. If you use django-grappelli, add 'super_inlines.grappelli_integration', to INSTALLED_APPS before 'grappelli', and 'super_inlines',

4. Inherit from SuperModelAdmin instead of ModelAdmin, SuperInlineModelAdmin instead of InlineModelAdmin, and use the class attribute inlines in inlines as you do in model admins

Example usage:

from django.contrib.admin import TabularInline, StackedInline, site
from super_inlines.admin import SuperInlineModelAdmin, SuperModelAdmin

from .models import *


class RoomInlineAdmin(SuperInlineModelAdmin, TabularInline):
    model = Room


class HouseInlineAdmin(SuperInlineModelAdmin, StackedInline):
    model = House
    inlines = (RoomInlineAdmin,)


class OwnerAdmin(SuperModelAdmin):
    inlines = (HouseInlineAdmin,)


site.register(Owner, OwnerAdmin)
