Installation

Usage in templates

A custom template tag is provided to render the message of a log entry, for example:

{% extends "timeline_logger/base.html" %}
{% load timeline %}

{% block timeline %}
    <ul class="timeline__list col__22--vw">
    {% for log in object_list %}
        <li class="timeline__entry">
            {% render_message log in_view=True %}
        </li>
    {% endfor %}
    </ul>
{% endblock timeline %}

This way, you can pass extra context to the template used for the log object.
