Quick start

Install:

pip install django-wildewidgets

If you plan on using Altair charts, run:

pip install altair

Add "wildewidgets" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...
    'wildewidgets',
]

Include the wildewidgets URLconf in your project urls.py like this:

from wildewidgets import WildewidgetDispatch

urlpatterns = [
    ...
    path('<urlbasepath>/wildewidgets_json', WildewidgetDispatch.as_view(), name='wildewidgets_json'),
]

Add the appropriate resources to your template files.

For ChartJS (regular business type charts), add the corresponding javascript file:

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/chart.js@2.9.4/dist/Chart.min.js"></script> 

For Altair (scientific charts), use:

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vega@5"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vega-lite@4"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vega-embed@6"></script>  

For DataTables, use:

<script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.21/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/moment.js/2.8.4/moment.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/plug-ins/1.10.21/sorting/datetime-moment.js"></script>

and:

<link href="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.21/css/jquery.dataTables.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />

and, if using Tabler, include:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static 'css/table_extra.css' %}"> 

For ApexCharts, use:

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/apexcharts"></script>

If you plan on using CodeWidget, you'll need to include the following to get syntax highlighting:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static 'css/highlighting.css' %}">
