Templates and templatetags

Templates

django-cruds-adminlte views will append CRUD template name to a list of default candidate template names for given action.

CRUD Templates are:

cruds/create.html
cruds/delete.html
cruds/detail.html
cruds/list.html
cruds/update.html

Templates are based in AdminLTE2 and django-adminlte2 (but this last is not required because the templates are included in this project). They’re ready to run with:

• django-crispy-forms
• select2
• django-cropping-image

You will probably want to override some templates, check the TEMPLATES config in your settings file and ensure you have your custom templates dir in DIRS:

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        'BACKEND': ...
        'DIRS': [normpath(join(dirname(dirname(abspath(__file__))),
                          'demo', 'templates')),],
        ...
    }
]

If you want to override the sidebar you can do it creating a file called templates/adminlte/lib/_main_sidebar.html inside your project and you can put there the contents you want.

Templatetags

crud_fields templatetag displays fields for an object:

{% load crud_tags %}

<table class="table">
  <tbody>
    {% crud_fields object "name, description" %}
  </tbody>
</table>

Use cruds_adminlte.util.crud_url shortcut function to quickly get url for instance for given action:

crud_url(author, 'update')

Is same as:

reverse('testapp_author_update', kwargs={'pk': author.pk})
