The GDAPS library allows Django to make real "pluggable" apps.
A standard Django "app" is reusable (if done correctly), but is not pluggable, like being distributed and "plugged" into a Django main application without modifications. GDAPS is filling this gap.
The reason you want to use GDAPS is: you want to create an application that should be extended via plugins. GDAPS consists of a few bells and twistles where Django lacks "automagic":
- Apps are automatically found using setuptools' entry points
- Apps can provide their own URLs (they are included and merged into urlpatterns automatically)
- Apps can define
Interfaces, that other GDAPS apps then can implement - Apps can provide template hooks that can be filled with plugins' content
Limitations
- GDAPS interfaces cannot inherit classes that import models (like
PermissionRequiredMixin), as the declaration is too early in the Django setup process, and apps aren't loaded at that time.
