News / blog plugin for the Wagtail CMS, but with news items belonging to collections, enforcing permissions

Project description

A fork of the wagtailnews plugin for Wagtail that provides news / blogging functionality. This fork exists to allow news items to belong to a collection, enforcing collection permissions and restrictions (including viewer restrictions, mirroring the Page queryset’s public() method and restricting unauthorized serving in the same way). This is done to facilitate wagtailnews working with the wagtailapproval plugin.

Installing

Install using pip:

pip install wagtailnews-collection

It works with Wagtail 1.4 and upwards.

Documentation

Documentation for Wagtail news can be found on Read The Docs. This fork has no specific documentation, as it works almost exactly the same.

Quick start

Create news models for your application that inherit from the relevant wagtailnews models:

from django.db import models

from wagtail.wagtailadmin.edit_handlers import FieldPanel
from wagtail.wagtailcore.fields import RichTextField
from wagtail.wagtailcore.models import Page

from wagtailnews.models import NewsIndexMixin, AbstractNewsItem, AbstractNewsItemRevision
from wagtailnews.decorators import newsindex


# The decorator registers this model as a news index
@newsindex
class NewsIndex(NewsIndexMixin, Page):
    # Add extra fields here, as in a normal Wagtail Page class, if required
    newsitem_model = 'NewsItem'


class NewsItem(AbstractNewsItem):
    # NewsItem is a normal Django model, *not* a Wagtail Page.
    # Add any fields required for your page.
    # It already has ``date`` field, and a link to its parent ``NewsIndex`` Page
    title = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    body = RichTextField()

    panels = [
        FieldPanel('title', classname='full title'),
        FieldPanel('body', classname='full'),
    ] + AbstractNewsItem.panels

    def __str__(self):
        return self.title


class NewsItemRevision(AbstractNewsItemRevision):
    newsitem = models.ForeignKey(NewsItem, related_name='revisions')
