Django Unfold admin integration for django-fobi

django-unfold-fobi

Unfold integration for django-fobi: Unfold-styled admin, Unfold theme for the form builder UI, DRF compatibility shims, and a few Unfold-friendly admin views. The optional Sites extension lives in unfold_fobi.contrib.sites.

This README shows the integration steps as they are used in djangocms_test/settings.py and djangocms_test/urls.py.

Quick Start

1. Install dependencies.

pip install django-unfold-fobi

2. Follow the standard django-fobi installation and plugin setup first, then add the unfold_fobi integration apps to INSTALLED_APPS (order matters).

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    "unfold",  # must be before django.contrib.admin
    "crispy_forms",  # required by unfold_fobi layouts/templates
    "fobi.contrib.themes.simple",  # required, Unfold theme extends it
    "unfold_fobi",
]

Add your normal django-fobi apps, plugins, and optional DRF integration exactly as documented by django-fobi.

If you want site-aware form bindings, add the optional app too:

INSTALLED_APPS += [
    "django.contrib.sites",
    "unfold_fobi.contrib.sites",
]

SITE_ID = 1

3. Add template context processors and builtins.

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        "BACKEND": "django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates",
        "DIRS": [],
        "APP_DIRS": True,
        "OPTIONS": {
            "context_processors": [
                "django.template.context_processors.request",
                "fobi.context_processors.theme",
                "unfold_fobi.context_processors.admin_site",
            ],
            "builtins": [
                "unfold_fobi.templatetags.unfold_fobi_tags",
            ],
        },
    },
]

4. Enable the Unfold Fobi theme and crispy forms pack.

FOBI_THEME = "unfold"
FOBI_DEFAULT_THEME = "unfold"

CRISPY_TEMPLATE_PACK = "unfold_crispy"
CRISPY_ALLOWED_TEMPLATE_PACKS = ["unfold_crispy"]

5. Add URLs from djangocms_test/urls.py.

from django.urls import include, path

urlpatterns = [
    # DRF integration endpoints (optional)
    path("api/", include("fobi.contrib.apps.drf_integration.urls")),
    path("api/", include("unfold_fobi.api.urls")),

    # Public Fobi routes
    path("fobi/", include("unfold_fobi.urls.public")),

    # Admin/Fobi edit + legacy compatibility routes
    # Place before admin.site.urls to avoid admin catch_all_view shadowing.
    path("admin/fobi/", include("unfold_fobi.urls.admin")),
]

6. Run migrations.

python manage.py migrate

Settings Reference (Unfold Sidebar)

This is the "Forms" navigation block used in djangocms_test/settings.py. It links to unfold_fobi admin views and Fobi routes. Include the reverse_lazy/gettext_lazy imports.

from django.urls import reverse_lazy
from django.utils.translation import gettext_lazy as _

UNFOLD = {
    "SIDEBAR": {
        "navigation": [
            {
                "title": _("Forms"),
                "separator": True,

                        "link": reverse_lazy("admin:unfold_fobi_formentryproxy_changelist"),
                        "active": lambda request: (
                            getattr(getattr(request, "resolver_match", None), "view_name", "")
                            in {
                                "admin:unfold_fobi_formentryproxy_changelist",
                                "admin:unfold_fobi_formentryproxy_add",

                                "fobi.edit_form_entry",
                            }
                            or request.path.startswith("/admin/unfold_fobi/formentryproxy/")
                            or request.path.startswith("/admin/fobi/forms/")
                        ),
                    },
                    {
                        "title": _("Import Form"),
                        "icon": "upload",
                        "link": reverse_lazy("admin:unfold_fobi_formentryproxy_import_form_entry_action"),
                        "active": lambda request: getattr(
                            getattr(request, "resolver_match", None), "view_name", ""
                        )
                        in {
                            "admin:unfold_fobi_formentryproxy_import_form_entry_action",
                            "fobi.import_form_entry",
                        }
                        or request.path.startswith("/admin/fobi/forms/import/")
                        or request.path.startswith("/admin/unfold_fobi/formentryproxy/import-json/"),
                    },
                    {
                        "title": _("Wizards"),
                        "icon": "auto_awesome",
                        "link": reverse_lazy("fobi.form_wizards_dashboard"),
                        "active": lambda request: getattr(
                            getattr(request, "resolver_match", None), "view_name", ""
                        )
                        in {
                            "fobi.form_wizards_dashboard",
                        }
                        or request.path.startswith("/admin/fobi/wizards/")
                    },
                ],
            },
        ],
    },
}

Optional Sites Integration

The base package does not require django.contrib.sites. Enable the Sites extension only if your project needs form-to-site bindings.

1. Add the optional apps:

INSTALLED_APPS += [
    "django.contrib.sites",
    "unfold_fobi.contrib.sites",
]

SITE_ID = 1
UNFOLD_FOBI_SITES_FOR_USER = "myproject.site_permissions.sites_for_user"

2. Run migrations:

python manage.py migrate

3. Re-register your admin classes with the mixins from unfold_fobi.contrib.sites.admin:

from django.contrib import admin
from fobi.contrib.plugins.form_handlers.db_store.models import SavedFormDataEntry

from unfold_fobi.admin import FormEntryProxyAdmin as BaseFormEntryProxyAdmin
from unfold_fobi.contrib.sites.admin import (
    RelationSiteScopeAdminMixin,
    SiteAwareFormEntryMixin,
)
from unfold_fobi.fobi_admin import SavedFormDataEntryAdmin as BaseSavedEntryAdmin
from unfold_fobi.models import FormEntryProxy


admin.site.unregister(FormEntryProxy)


@admin.register(FormEntryProxy)
class FormEntryProxyAdmin(
    SiteAwareFormEntryMixin,
    RelationSiteScopeAdminMixin,
    BaseFormEntryProxyAdmin,
):
    site_relation_lookup = "site_binding__sites"

    def has_view_permission(self, request, obj=None):
        return self._has_site_scoped_permission(request, "view", obj)

    def has_change_permission(self, request, obj=None):
        return self._has_site_scoped_permission(request, "change", obj)

    def has_delete_permission(self, request, obj=None):
        return self._has_site_scoped_permission(request, "delete", obj)


admin.site.unregister(SavedFormDataEntry)


@admin.register(SavedFormDataEntry)
class SavedFormDataEntryAdmin(RelationSiteScopeAdminMixin, BaseSavedEntryAdmin):
    site_relation_lookup = "form_entry__site_binding__sites"

    def has_view_permission(self, request, obj=None):
        return self._has_site_scoped_permission(request, "view", obj)

What the package provides:

• FobiFormSiteBinding to persist form-to-site relations.
• SiteAwareFormEntryMixin to add the synthetic sites field to the form admin.
• RelationSiteScopeAdminMixin to filter querysets by a relation path such as site_binding__sites or form_entry__site_binding__sites.
• Binding helpers in unfold_fobi.contrib.sites.services.

What stays in the consuming project:

• Mapping users to allowed sites.
• Any fallback/default assignment logic when no sites are selected.
• Project-specific has_*_permission() policy.
• Project-specific clone/import wiring beyond the provided binding helpers.

Development & Testing

Prerequisites

Install Poetry for dependency management.

Setup

# Install all dependencies (runtime + dev)
poetry install

# Run database migrations for the test server
poetry run python tests/server/manage.py migrate

Running Tests

# Run the full pytest suite
poetry run pytest -q

# Run with verbose output
poetry run pytest -v

# Run a specific test file
poetry run pytest tests/test_smoke.py -v

Manual Test Server

A local Django test server is included for visual inspection and manual testing.

# Apply migrations (creates tests/server/db.sqlite3)
poetry run python tests/server/manage.py migrate

# Create a superuser for admin login
poetry run python tests/server/manage.py createsuperuser

# Optionally seed a test form with sample fields
poetry run python tests/server/manage.py create_test_form

# Start the server
poetry run python tests/server/manage.py runserver 8080

Then open:

• Admin: http://localhost:8080/admin/
• Add form: http://localhost:8080/admin/unfold_fobi/formentryproxy/add/
• Edit form: http://localhost:8080/admin/unfold_fobi/formentryproxy/edit/1/ (after creating a form)

Notes

• unfold_fobi.apps.UnfoldFobiConfig.ready() automatically loads the DRF compatibility shim and re-registers Fobi admin classes with Unfold, so you do not need manual imports.
• The Unfold Fobi theme is registered as uid="unfold" in unfold_fobi/fobi_themes.py.
• If you are using DRF integration, ensure the db_store handler is enabled for a form so REST submissions are stored. New forms get it automatically, but existing ones may need the handler attached.
