gargoyle-yplan 2.1.1

Gargoyle is a platform built on top of Django which allows you to switch functionality of your application on and off based on conditions.

Gargoyle

Retired: this project is no longer maintained. I (Adam Johnson) no longer have time to continue maintaining this. I was doing so since I took on this project, and its related packages django-modeldict and nexus, for my ex-employer YPlan. If you’d like to sponsor ongoing maintenance or take it over yourself, please contact [e-mail].

Gargoyle is a platform built on top of Django which allows you to switch functionality of your application on and off based on conditions.

It was originally created by Disqus, but due to the inactivity we at YPlan have taken over maintenance on this fork.

Requirements

Tested with all combinations of:

• Python: 3.6

• Django: 1.11, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2

Python 3.4+ supported.

Install

Install it with pip:

pip install gargoyle-yplan

If you are upgrading from the original to this fork, you will need to run the following first, since the packages clash:

pip uninstall django-modeldict gargoyle

Failing to do this will mean that pip uninstall gargoyle will also erase the files for gargoyle-yplan, and similarly for our django-modeldict fork.

Documentation

The documentation is available at Read The Docs.

Pending Release

2.1.1 (2019-05-17)

• Retired: this project is no longer maintained. I (Adam Johnson) no longer have time to continue maintaining this.
