django-files

--------------

An app for tagging arbitrary models with "files".

A file is a simple model with a filefield, title, description, owner, content-object.

The idea is to have templatetags for tagging objects with 

(google gears drag and drop?)

Likewise, an overview of files for various model_instances will be obtainable.

Requirements

============

    * jQuery 1.3+

    * http://code.google.com/p/sorl-thumbnail/

This app is being built for pinax-0.7+.

Your mileage may vary out of the box in other environments.

For quick integration you will need a current copy django-uni_form, for instance.

Install

=======

    * Check out the code onto your path as files::

        git clone git://github.com/skyl/django-files.git files

    * Add 'files' to INSTALLED_APPS

    * add (r'^files/', include('files.urls')), to your urlpatterns

    * syncdb

For Pinax you can take the additional steps, 

add to the right_tabs block in site_base.html::

    
{% trans "Files" %}


In site_tabs.css you can add rules for

``body.files #tab_files a`` and ``body.files #tab_files``. 

Pinax Usage

===========

In the template with the object(s) you want to tag add::

    {% load files_tags %}

Where you would like the link to add an file to a model instance::

    {% file_link_add_to myModelInstance 'css_id' %}

To make this link a jQuery dialog widget, in extra_body::

    

    {% add_file_to myModelinstance 'css_id' %}

 

Note that you can choose 'css_id' for these tags but they must match.

Add css for the widget to extra_head::

    {% include 'files/widgetCSS.html' %}

  

To add a link to all of the files for a model instance::

    

    {% link_to_files_for myModelInstance 'css_class' %}
