h1. Introduction

A reusable Django application to create a proxy object for your models.
Intended to aggregate various content types into a model for reuse.

Current implementation example:


from django.db import models
from django.db.models import signals
from django_proxy.signals import proxy_save, proxy_delete
...

class Post(models.Model):
STATUS_CHOICES = (
(1, _('Draft')),
(2, _('Public')),
)

title = models.CharField(max_length=150)
body = models.TextField()
tag_data = TagField()
status = models.IntegerField(_('status'), choices=STATUS_CHOICES,
default=2)

class ProxyMeta:
title = 'title'
description = 'body'
tags = 'tag_data'
active = {'status':2}

signals.post_save.connect(proxy_save, Post, True)
signals.post_delete.connect(proxy_delete, Post)

h2. Dependencies

Nothing external. No contrib apps. Just Django proper.

h2. TODO

* Decouple further via signals possibly, removing ProxyMeta from the design

h3. Examples

To see this project in use, take a peek at "Django-Mingus":http://github.com/montylounge/django-mingus and how combined with django-basic-apps it leverages the solution.
