Date and time dependend content manipulation

Date and time dependent content manipulation.

Quick start

1. Install using pip:

   pip install django-time-wizard

2. Make sure to follow the installation steps for django-polymorphic

3. Add to your INSTALLED_APPS:

   'polymorphic',
   'time_wizard',

4. Include the time_wizard admin URLs in your project urls.py:

   url(^'admin/', include('time_wizard.urls')),

5. Run python manage.py migrate to create the time_wizard models.

Note

Upgrading from version 0.2.0 to 1.0.0 will delete all the created models of time_wizard!

Usage

You can use the TimeWizard in different ways:

• use a ForeignKey-relation

  • use one TimeWizardModel-definition for as much models as you want

  • affects your database as the relation needs a new model field

  • example:

    # models.py
    from time_wizard.mixins import TimeWizardMixin
    ...
    class MyModel(TimeWizardMixin, models.Model):
        ...

• use the PeriodModelInline in the admin

  • each model of yours can have different time-settings

  • does not affect your database as it works with a generic relationship

  • example:

    # models.py
    from time_wizard.mixins import TimeWizardInlineMixin
    ...
    class MyModel(TimeWizardInlineMixin, models.Model):
        ...
    
    # admin.py
    from time_wizard.admin import PeriodModelInline
    from polymorphic.admin import PolymorphicInlineSupportMixin
    ...
    class MyModelAdmin(PolymorphicInlineSupportMixin, admin.ModelAdmin):
        inlines = [PeriodModelInline]
        ...

• in both ways use is_published on your model to indicate if the content is shown or not.

Settings

Django-time-wizard uses the defined countries and provinces/states from holidays. Definitions need to be compatible with holidays. You can also define this yourself for your needs:

TIME_WIZARD_COUNTRIES = ['US', 'UK', 'DE', ...]
TIME_WIZARD_COUNTRY_PROVINCES = {'US': ['AL', 'AK', ...], ...}

Requirements

• django

• django-polymorphic

• holidays

Tests

Setup your test environment with virtualenv and install the requirements with pip install .. Also install tox via pip and simply run tox.
