djangocms-snippet 5.0.0

Adds snippet plugin to django CMS.

django CMS Snippet provides a plugin for django CMS to inject HTML, CSS or JavaScript snippets into your website.

This project is endorsed by the django CMS Association. Join us on Slack.

Warning: We recommend using this plugin only during development:

This plugin is a potential security hazard, since it allows authorized-
users to place custom markup or Javascript on pages bypassing all of
Django's normal sanitization mechanisms. This could be exploited by users
with the right to add snippets to elevate their privileges to superusers.
This plugin should only be used during the initial development phase for
rapid prototyping and testing.

Documentation

See REQUIREMENTS in the setup.py file for additional dependencies.

Installation

For a manual install:

• run pip install djangocms-snippet

• add djangocms_snippet to your INSTALLED_APPS

• run python manage.py migrate djangocms_snippet

Djangocms-snippet uses the ace code editor which normally is loaded from a CDN. If you prefer your application to provide the editor locally, you can change the requirement from djangocms_snippet to djangocms_snippet[static-ace] and add djangocms_static_ace to your project’s INSTALLED_APPS.

Configuration

To allow the contents of all snippets to be searchable, please set DJANGOCMS_SNIPPET_SEARCH to True in your settings:

DJANGOCMS_SNIPPET_SEARCH = True

We are using Ace as our editor of choice to edit the snippet content. You can customize the theme and mode through:

DJANGOCMS_SNIPPET_THEME = 'github'
DJANGOCMS_SNIPPET_MODE = 'html'

If dynamic content is inserted (for example {% show_menu ... %}), the plugin cache must be disabled, please set DJANGOCMS_SNIPPET_CACHE to False in your settings:

DJANGOCMS_SNIPPET_CACHE = False # default value is False

Migration 0010 requires the use of a user in order to create versions for existing snippets (if djangocms_versioning is installed and enabled), a user can be chosen with the setting DJANGOCMS_SNIPPET_VERSIONING_MIGRATION_USER_ID, the default is 1. This setting is also exposed as an Environment variable for Divio projects using the Divio addon.

DJANGOCMS_SNIPPET_VERSIONING_MIGRATION_USER_ID = 2 # Will use user with id: 2

Template tag

You can also use a template tag to render a snippet rather than a plugin:

{% load snippet_tags %}
{% snippet_fragment [reference] %}

Replace [reference] with either:

• The snippet ID, e.g. {% snippet_fragment 42 %}

• The snippet slug, e.g. {% snippet_fragment 'my-snippet' %}

• The snippet instance, e.g. {% snippet_fragment instance.snippet %}

Optionally provide a fallback if there is no matching id/slug/instance:

{% snippet_fragment 'my-snippet' or %}
    ... your content fallback here ...
{% endsnippet_fragment %}

Running Tests

You can run tests by executing:

virtualenv env
source env/bin/activate
pip install -r tests/requirements.txt
python setup.py test
