django_popcorn 0.2.0

Add-another pop-ups a la django-admin.

Add-another pop-ups a la django-admin.

The popup views are implemented using a mixin to the generic CreateView. Also, the popups now support permissions. As a result, a user will onle get the ‘add-another’ link next to a ForeignKey if he has the add permission for the target model.

Installation

Get it from the cheeseshop:

pip install django_coffee_table

Usage

Read on:

1. Include the following in your INSTALLED_APPS settings:

   'popcorn',
   'reform',
   'bootstrap_toolkit',
   'widget_tweaks',

2. Uncomment django.contrib.admin in the INSTALLED_APPS settings.

3. Add this to your settings.py (If you do not already have it):

   TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
       "django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth",
       "django.core.context_processors.debug",
       "django.core.context_processors.i18n",
       "django.core.context_processors.media",
       "django.core.context_processors.static",
       "django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages",
       "django.core.context_processors.request",
       "popcorn.context_processors.admin_media_prefix",
   )

4. Add the following to your base.html template:

   <script src="{{ ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX }}js/admin/RelatedObjectLookups.js"></script>

5. Write a few views - use PopcornMixin for popup views:

   class CreateUser(CreateView):
       model = User
   
   class PopcornGroup(PopcornMixin, CreateView):
       model = Group
   
   class PopcornPermission(PopcornMixin, CreateView):
       model = Permission

6. Use the utility function to generate popcorn urls:

   urlpatterns += get_popcorn_urls([PopcornGroup, PopcornPermission])

7. Render your forms using django_reform reform tag:

   {% reform form %}

8. If you are having any problems, please check out the demo project for a working implementation.
