Various common Django-related routines.
Project description
This library consists of various Django-related routines that extend or modify the behaviour of the framework:
extensions for settings.py (current directory resolution, namespace package support, settings profile support)
Choices: an enum implementation for Django forms and models (with predefined classes for languages, countries, etc.)
typical filters, template tags, models, form fields, etc.
Complete documentation for the package can be found here:
The latest version can be installed via PyPI:
$ pip install lck.django
or:
$ easy_install lck.django
The source code repository and issue tracker are maintained on GitHub.
This package bundles some royalty free static images that are useful in almost every Django project:
Silk icons 1.3 by FamFamFam - requires attributing the author
Silk Companion 1 by Damien Guard - requires attributing the author
Country Flags by SenojFlags.com - requires using the following HTML:
<a href="http://www.senojflags.com">Country flag</a> image from <a href="http://www.senojflags.com">Flags of all Countries</a>
For the curious, lck stands for LangaCore Kit. LangaCore is a one man software development shop of mine.
Note: lck.common requires Python 2.7 because all of its code is using the so-called four futures (absolute_imports, division, print_function and unicode_literals). One of the virtues in the creation of this library is to make the code beautiful. These switches give a useful transitional state between the old Python 2.x and the new Python 3.x. You should use them as well.
Note: Since 0.5.0 lck.django requires Django 1.3 because it makes my monkey-patching efforts much easier. Moreover, 1.3 nicely deprecates behaviour which I consider ugly.
Change Log
0.5.7
EditorTrackable introduced
Choices can be rendered in grouped form. Currently requires adding '--keyword=Group:2 ' to xgettext invocations in django/core/managemenet/commands/makemessages.py. Cleaning that up is planned for 0.6.0.
typical_handler works now with forms w/o a save() method
upperfirst filter introduced: ups only the first character
Square thumbnails for wide images now work properly
moved contents of helpers to common (enables i18n and cleans up the API), the helpers module is therefore deprecated
some i18n updates
0.5.6
in the thumbnail filter, support for automatic cropping to square introduced
minor translation updates
0.5.5
group members inherit shifted attributes
0.5.4
minor updates to PolishDateWidget
0.5.3
AvatarSupport abstract model for custom avatars. GravatarSupport can be used as fallback or independently.
typical_handler now properly supports file uploads
bugfixes: objects without any score don’t cause exceptions anymore
leftovers from namespace changes cleaned up
0.5.2
monkey patches of core Django annotated and regrouped for easier management in the future (yup, more to come)
a stats calculator
minor bugfixes
0.5.1
tags now support models with custom managers
for Named and Titled models a read-only name_urlencoded and title_urlencoded properties were introduced. Useful as arguments in template tags.
support for setting additional attributes on choices using an unholy << operator overload
in tags, support for getting objects marked with specific stems
0.5.0
migrated to the lck namespace from langacore.kit
migrated licensing from GPL 3 to MIT
bumped the trove from alpha status to beta, the code is in production for over a year now
Ancient history
