Installation

Make sure you are in the correct virtualenv environment:

. python/bin/activate  (or similar)

If you are running Django 1.4, we recommend using admin_enhancer

pip install django-admin-enhancer

Install the package:

pip install openapp_indivo_adminsite

You need to create a separate settings file, for the admin site, in the indivo_server directory. This settings file is intended only to run the admin site. Call this file settings_admin.py. Include the following code.

# This configuration is for the Indivo admin site - it uses the standard
# settings, but replaces a middleware to allow the Django Authentication
# system to work.

import os.path
from settings import *


# The admin site requires the Django Static Files logic.
STATIC_ROOT = ''
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATICFILES_FINDERS = (
    'django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.FileSystemFinder',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.AppDirectoriesFinder',
)

# Need to load the templates from an egg.
TEMPLATE_LOADERS += (
     'django.template.loaders.eggs.Loader',
)

# THIS REPLACES THE INDIVO MIDDLEWARE TO PERMIT DJANGO AUTHENTICATION
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
    'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
)

# ENABLE THE ADMIN URLS
ROOT_URLCONF = 'openapp_indivo.adminsite.urls'

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.admindocs',
    'indivo',
    'codingsystems',
    'south',
    'openapp_indivo.adminsite',
)

# Admin urls are picky about the trailing slash
APPEND_SLASH = True


# If admin enhancer is available, use it (requires django 1.4)
try:
    import admin_enhancer
    INSTALLED_APPS += 'admin_enhancer',
except:
    pass

import openapp_indivo.adminsite
ADMINSITE_ROOT_DIR = os.path.dirname(openapp_indivo.adminsite.__file__)
TEMPLATE_DIRS = (ADMINSITE_ROOT_DIR + '/templates/',) + TEMPLATE_DIRS

Sync your database to create tables required to support admin.:

python manage.py syncdb --settings=settings_admin
python manage.py migrate --settings=settings_admin

Create a superuser. You login as superuser to create other users.:

python manage.py createsuperuser --settings=settings_admin

Now start your server. This will run the admin web server on port 10000. If you want to make the admin url visible outside of the current server, either use 0.0.0.0 instead of localhost, or proxy this server via apache or similar.:

python manage.py runserver localhost:10000 --settings=settings_admin

You can access this url from your browser using:

http://localhost:10000/admin/

Short-comings

After upload of a document, display the status and provide a hyperlink to go to the document. Allow user to provide more fields.

On the document view, provide links to facts contained in the document only.

For all foreign keys, need autocomplete logic. Otherwise the system cannot function with any volume of data.

All changelists require search configuration for dealing with volumes of data.

Support for Django 1.3.X. Currently index.html is coded to support 1.4 only.
