Dependencies

• Python 3.6+
• Django 1.11+, 2.0+
• Wagtail 1.13+, 2.0+

Installation

1. Install wagtail-copyablemodeladmin:

pip install wagtail-copyablemodeladmin

2. Add copyablemodeladmin as an installed app in your Django settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'copyablemodeladmin',
    ...
)

Usage

Please see the Wagtail ModelAdmin documentation for getting started with ModelAdmin.

When creating a ModelAdmin for objects that should be copyable, instead of inheriting from ModelAdmin, inherit from copyablemodeladmin.options.CopyableModelAdmin:

from wagtail.contrib.modeladmin.options import modeladmin_register
from copyablemodeladmin.options import CopyableModelAdmin
from myapp.models import Book


# Inherit from CopyableModelAdmin instead of ModelAdmin
class BookAdmin(CopyableModelAdmin):
    model = Book
    list_display = ('title', 'author')
    list_filter = ('author',)
    search_fields = ('title', 'author')

# Now you just need to register your customised ModelAdmin class with Wagtail
modeladmin_register(BookAdmin)

In addition to CopyableModelAdmin, there are three mixin classes that can be added to other custom ModelAdmin subclasses:

from copyablemodeladmin.helpers import CopyButtonHelperMixin
from copyablemodeladmin.options import CopyableModelAdminMixin
from copyablemodeladmin.views import CopyViewMixin


class CustomCopyButtonHelper(CopyButtonHelperMixin, CustomButtonHelper):
    pass


class CustomCopyInstanceView(CopyViewMixin, CustomInstanceSpecificView):
    pass


class CustomCopyableModelAdmin(CopyableModelAdminMixin, ModelAdmin):
    button_helper_class = CustomCopyButtonHelper
    copy_view_class = CustomCopyInstanceView
