Unofficial extra for Django Unfold Admin. Supports django-parler and django-cms.

Project description

Django Unfold Extra

Unofficial extension for Django Unfold Admin. Adds support for django-parler and django-cms to the modern and clean Django Unfold admin interface.

Overview

Django Unfold Extra enhances the beautiful Django Unfold admin interface (v.0.66.0) with additional functionality for:

  • django-cms: Integration with Django CMS 5.0 - Uses unfold admin colors for django cms
  • django-parler: Multilingual support for your Django models
  • versatile-image: Improved integration with django-versatileimagefield, including preview and ppoi
  • Unfold auto-update: Styles can be automatically updaten from official unfold package via npm
  • Theme-Sync: Use either Unfold or Django CMS switcher to control themes. You can run both at the same time, with or without both controls enabled.

This package maintains the clean, modern aesthetic of Django Unfold while adding specialized interfaces for these popular Django packages.

It uses unobtrusive template and CSS-styling overrides where possible. As Django CMS uses many '!important' flags, pagetree.css had to be rebuilt from sources to remove some conflicting style definitions.

Note: Django CMS support is not fully tested, but all features should work, beside filer.

Installation

  1. Install the package via pip:

    pip install django-unfold-extra
    
  2. Add to your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
   # Unfold theme
   'unfold',
   'unfold_extra',
   'unfold_extra.contrib.cms',  # if extra packages
   'unfold_extra.contrib.parler',
   'unfold_extra.contrib.auth'  # you likely want to use your own implementation
   'unfold_extra.contrib.sites'

   # Your apps
   # ...
]

Make sure you've set up Django Unfold according to its documentation. https://github.com/unfoldadmin/django-unfold

Add the following to your settings.py:

from django.templatetags.static import static

UNFOLD = {
    "STYLES": [
        lambda request: static("unfold_extra/css/styles.css"), # additional styles for 3rd party packages
    ],
    "SCRIPTS": [
        lambda request: static("unfold_extra/js/theme-sync.js"), # switch django cms theme from "Unfold Admin"
    ],
}
CMS_COLOR_SCHEME_TOGGLE = False # disable django cms theme switch -> use Unfold admin theme switch or disable Unfold theme switch via styles, no config option yet.

Add {% unfold_extra_styles %} and {% unfold_extra_theme_receiver %} from unfold_extra_tags to your base HTML template.

  • Enables unfold admin colors in django cms
  • theme switch from unfold admin to change theme in djangs cms (light/dark/auto)

   # ... your code


class MyInlineAdmin(TranslatableStackedInline):

django-cms Support

  • Theme integration in django admin (partial support in frontend)
  • Pagetree
