Installation
============

::

pip install django-admin-utils

You can also install the in-development version with::

pip install https://github.com/ionelmc/django-admin-utils/archive/master.zip

Documentation
=============

Terse admin.py
--------------

::

from django.contrib import admin
from admin_utils import register, inline

from .models import MyModel, OtherModel

@register(MyModel)
class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
inlines = inline(OtherModel),

If you want custom admin sites::

customsite = admin.AdminSite()

@register(MyModel, site=customsite)
class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
inlines = inline(OherModel),

Mock admin (mount your views in admin using model wrappers)
-----------------------------------------------------------

Have you ever wanted a page in the admin that appears in the app list but you don't have any
models ? Now you can have that without patching up the admin Site or the templates. Just put this
in your admin.py::

from django.urls import path
from admin_utils import make_admin_class

make_admin_class(
app_label="test_app",
model_name="Test1",
urls=[
path('', views.root, name='test_app_test1_changelist'),
path('level1/', views.level1, name='level-1'),
path('level1/level2/', views.level2, name='level-2'),
],
)

To use different admin site::

make_admin_class(
site=customsite,
app_label="test_app",
model_name="Test1",
urls=[
path('', views.root, name='test_app_test1_changelist'),
path('level1/', views.level1, name='level-1'),
path('level1/level2/', views.level2, name='level-2'),
],
)

Alternatively you can mount a single view with a decorator::

from admin_utils import register_view

@register_view(
site=customsite,
app_label="test_app",
model_name="Test1",
)
def root(request):
...

Admin mixins
------------

admin_utils.mixins.FoldableListFilterAdminMixin
```````````````````````````````````````````````

Adds nice filter toggling with cookie support. Largely based on `django-foldable-list-filter
`_ but without the transition effect and no pictures.

Example::

from admin_utils.mixins import FoldableListFilterAdminMixin

class MyModelAdmin(FoldableListFilterAdminMixin, admin.ModelAdmin):
pass

Looks like this:

:alt: Screenshort of FoldableListFilterAdminMixin

admin_utils.mixins.FullWidthAdminMixin
``````````````````````````````````````

Make the changelist expand instead of having the width of the windows and having that nasty inner scrollbar. You never gonna notice that if
your table is long !

Example::

from admin_utils.mixins import FoldableListFilterAdminMixin

class MyModelAdmin(FoldableListFilterAdminMixin, admin.ModelAdmin):
pass

You probably didn't even notice you had this problem:
