## Installation

1. Install using pip

```shell
python -m pip install django-rating-system
```

or Clone the repository then copy `rating` folder and paste in project folder.

```shell
git clone https://github.com/mahyar-amiri/django-rating-system.git
```

## Configuration

1. Add `rating.apps.RatingConfig` to installed_apps after `django.contrib.auth` in the `settings.py` file. Add `MEDIA_URL` and `MEDIA_ROOT`.

```python
# setting.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',

# MY APPS
'rating.apps.RatingConfig',
]

...

MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = BASE_DIR / 'media'
```

2. Add `path('rating/', include('rating.urls')),` and media root to urlpatterns in the project `urls.py` file.

```python
# urls.py

from django.urls import path, include
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static

urlpatterns = [
path('rating/', include('rating.urls')),
]

urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
```

3. Connect `ratings` to target model. In `models.py` add the field `ratings` as a GenericRelation field to the
required model.

**NOTE:** Please note that the field name must be `ratings` **NOT** `rating`.

```python
# models.py

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.contenttypes.fields import GenericRelation
from rating.models import Rating

class Article(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=20)
content = models.TextField()
# the field name should be ratings
ratings = GenericRelation(Rating)

```

4. Do migrations
```shell
python manage.py migrate
```

## Usage

1. In the template (e.g. post_detail.html) add the following template tags where obj is the instance of post model.
```html
{% load rating_tags %}
```

2. Add the following template tag to load stylesheet.
```html
{% render_rating_import %}
```

3. Add the following template tags where you want to render ratings.
```html
{% render_rating request obj settings_slug='default-config' %} {# Render all the ratings belong to the passed object "obj" #}
```
if your context_object_name is not `obj` (e.g. article) replace obj with context_object_name.
```html
{% render_rating request obj=article settings_slug='default-config' %}
```

4. Add the following template tag to show rating information.
```html
{% render_rating_info request=request obj=article settings_slug='default-config' %}
```
use `custom_template` if you want to render your own template.
```html
{% render_rating_info request=request obj=article settings_slug='default-config' custom_template='my_custom_rating_info.html' %}
```

5. Add `render_rating_script` tag at the end of the last `render_rating` tag.
```html
{% render_rating_import %}

{% render_rating request=request obj=article settings_slug='default-config' %}
{% render_rating_info request=request obj=article settings_slug='default-config' %}

{% render_rating request=request obj=article settings_slug='like-config' %}
{% render_rating_info request=request obj=article settings_slug='like-config' custom_template='rating/rating_info.html' %}

{% render_rating_script %}
```

## Settings

### Global Settings

You can customize global settings by adding keywords to `RATING_SETTINGS` dictionary in project `settings.py`.

```python
# setting.py
RATING_SETTINGS = {
# generated urlhash length
'URLHASH_LENGTH': 8
}
```

### Config Settings

This settings can be configured in admin panel. Set your config in `RatingSettings` model. You can use multi config all at once.

```python
FROM_ZERO = False # if True, Rating will start from 0 otherwise 1
RATES = 5 # 1, 3, 5, 10
ICON # path of rating icon
HEIGHT = '2rem' # Height of icon with unit
```
