djgo

Description

This package provides some shortcuts for your django app.

Installation

pip install djgo

• PyPI page
• GitHub page

Usage

djgo has shortcuts for different parts of the app. To use it, simply import it with import djgo.

manage.py

Method start_django() (or manage()) is a shortcut for launching Django.

wsgi.py

Method set_wsgi() is a shortcut that sets Django settings env variable and returns default wsgi application.

urls.py

Method load_app() is a shortcut that loads and returns an app module or its part.

app/contrib.py

Method app_config() is a shortcut that sets Django app config. Example:

from djpp import app_config
default_app_config = app_config(verbose_name='My Cool App')

app/models.py

Decorator @meta is a shortcut that sets meta and __str__() for your model.
WARNING: All meta defined this way won't register in migrations.
Example:

@meta(single='My Client', plural='My Clients', display='name')
class Client(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField()

is equal to

class Client(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField()
    class Meta:
        verbose_name = 'My Client'
        verbose_name_plural = 'My Clients'
    def \_\_str\_\_():
        return self.name

except the meta (name and verbose_name) won't register in migrations.

You can also pass functions to display:

@meta('My Client', display=lambda self: 'Cool ' + str(self.name))
class Client(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField()

is equal to

class Client(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField()
    class Meta:
        name = 'My Client'
        verbose_name = 'My Client'
    def \_\_str\_\_():
        return 'Cool ' + str(self.name)

except the meta (name and verbose_name) won't register in migrations.

djgo.admin

djgo has a small set of methods for admin site and admin.py file:

• admin.urls is a shortcut for path('url', admin.site.urls), except adds '/' in the end of your url string if it doesn't have one.
• admin.meta is a shortcut for setting admin.site.site_header and admin.site.site_title.
• admin.clear_models is a shortcut for clearing models from admin site registry.
• admin.quick_inline is a decorator for setting some tabular inline params.

Other features

You can also access settings through djgo with djgo.settings!

Lastly, djgo provides a small log() method for printing some info.
