h1. huDjango

huDjango contains a collection of small extensions th the [http://www.djangoproject.com/ Django Web framework] we use at HUDORA.

• auth.backends.!EmailBackend - Authenticate against django.contrib.auth.models.User the same way Django does by default except that the users can use their E-Mail address instead of the username to authenticate.

• auth.backends.!ZimbraBackend - Authenticate against a Zimbra Server via LDAP. Users have to use their full E-Mail adress and Zimbra Passwort to log in. The Backend creates a new entry in the Django User Database if authentication against Zimbra is successfull but no matching E-Mail in Django adress is found.

• fields.scalingimagefield - images with automatic scaling

• fields.defaulting - Django fields with more elaborate default values

• templatetags.hudjango - format_address tag for formating the AddressProtocol, html_euro, html_cent, g2kg and link_object tags.

• PrinterChooser - selection of a printer which is stored in a cookie.

• serializers.queryset_to_xls - generate Excel/XLS file from a queryset.
