Project description
lizard-ui
Introduction
Usage, etc.
More details in src/lizard_ui/USAGE.txt .
Development installation
The first time, you’ll have to run the “bootstrap” script to set up setuptools and buildout:
$> python bootstrap.py
And then run buildout to set everything up:
$> bin/buildout
(On windows it is called bin\buildout.exe).
You’ll have to re-run buildout when you or someone else made a change in setup.py or buildout.cfg.
The current package is installed as a “development package”, so changes in .py files are automatically available (just like with python setup.py develop).
If you want to use trunk checkouts of other packages (instead of released versions), add them as an “svn external” in the local_checkouts/ directory and add them to the develop = list in buildout.cfg.
Tests can always be run with bin/test or bin\test.exe.
Usage of lizard-ui
Usage:
>>> import lizard_ui
Show how to import the main classes and how to use them.

Changelog of lizard-ui
1.3 (2010-06-23)
Added graph reloading on sidebar collapse/expand.
UI css fixes (overflow:hidden in a couple of places to prevent scrollbars in corner cases, for instance).
1.2 (2010-06-22)
Floating the main content area now and giving it the proper width with javascript. This makes the layout in IE more reliable.
The main body has “overflow: hidden” to get rid of scrollbars once and for all: scrollbars sometimes occur when there’s a small layout bug. A scrollbar takes up space, so the main content float is pushed down. We have an assumption of a single page without scrolling, so hiding scrollbars is perfectly fine. (The main area itself can have scrollbars for textual content).
1.1 (2010-06-18)
IE tweaks.
1.0 (2010-06-17)
Fixed javascript code with jslint.
Added django-compressor for javascript and css compression and combination. You’ll need to add the configuration in http://dpaste.de/xLDU/ to your settings and add “compressor” to your installed apps.
Switched to a separate “javascript” and “css” block instead of the site-head-extras, head-extras and so. Be sure to add {{super.block}} when you override the blocks.
0.12 (2010-06-11)
Upgraded to jqueryui 1.8.2 (from 1.8.1).
Removed jqueryui’s tab component as it conflicts with jquerytools’ implementation. Jquerytools’ implementation is way friendlier to our existing sidebar css.
0.11 (2010-06-08)
Added direct support for a jquery tree. We already contained the base treeview javascript, so lizard-ui was a logical place for setting it up.
0.10 (2010-06-07)
Added fillSidebar() alias for stretchOneSidebarBox().
Splitted title block in sitetitle/subtitle as that’s a common occurrence.
0.9 (2010-06-03)
Using jquery’s live() for “late binding” of events to elements added later through javascript. Saves some couple of lines.
0.8 (2010-06-01)
Added generic accordion handling for the sidebar. Including ajaxy loading.
0.7 (2010-05-18)
Added jquerytools for accordeon behaviour in sidebar.
Layout fixes, mostly for the sidebar. Also fix for the datepicker-placed div at the bottom.
Update to jquery-ui 1.8.1.
0.6 (2010-04-28)
Added collapsible sidebar.
Changed css framework from yui to blueprint: more understandable. The reason for yui was that it had a 100%-width layout. We’re now building up the layout (grid-wise) ourselves due to the collapsible sidebar, so switching back to blueprint is now possible.
Changed layout to match Dirk-Jan’s latest screenshots.
0.5 (2010-04-13)
Layout improvements.
Added documentation (just mount our urls!).
Removed separate icons, leaving only the sprite’d icons.
Added jqueryui. Including it automatically. It also means extjs isn’t included automatically anymore.
Sidebar width is 300px instead of 180px.
0.4 (2010-03-16)
Added extjs javascript library.
Added javascript and css for dividing the vertical space equally.
0.3.1 (2010-03-05)
Bugfix: removed sample breadcrumb content from the template.
0.3 (2010-03-05)
Added openlayers 2.8.
Added famfamfam silk icon set.
Added background to menubar, footer and body.
Removed blueprint and added the YUI css framework.
0.2 (2010-02-12)
Nested our templates in templates/lizard_ui instead of directly in templates. We’re well-behaved now!
0.1 (2010-02-12)
Added lizardbase.html template as base for a lizard user interface.
Added django-staticfiles as a dependency for managing css and javascript resources.
Added blueprint css framework.
Initial structure created by nensskel.
