a theme for Pinax based on Twitter's Bootstrap
Project description
A theme for Pinax 0.9 based on Twitter’s open source Bootstrap framework.
Quick Start
Include “pinax-theme-bootstrap” in your requirements file and include “pinax_theme_bootstrap” and “django_forms_bootstrap” (which is installed alongside this theme) in your INSTALLED APPS.
Make sure both template loaders and staticfiles finders includes app directories.
Site name comes from Sites fixture.
Your “site_base.html” should extend “theme_bootstrap/base.html” and should provide “footer” and “nav” blocks (the latter should just be a ul of li of a links).
Your pages should have blocks “head_title” and “body” and should extend “site_base.html”.
The url name “home” should be defined as the homepage.
Upgrade Notes
With newer versions of Bootstrap a light status bar is now default. If you’d like to use the darker navbar, simply override the navbar_class block in your site_base.html to something like the following (note we include the fixed-top class in this block by default, but it’s also optional):
{% block navbar_class %}navbar-inverse navbar-fixed-top{% endblock %}Base templates: To enable multiple themes to be used within a single site, base templates are now located under the “theme_bootstrap” folder. We will continue to provide base templates at the root path for backward compatibility, but these will likely be removed in a future version and you should update your site_base.html to extend from “theme_bootstrap/base.html”.
Forms Rendering: Versions prior to 2.0.3 included template tags for forms rendering. This has now been moved out to a new app, django-forms-bootstrap. You’ll need to add this app to your INSTALLED_APPS as “django_forms_bootstrap”.
Requirements
This theme is officially supported when used in conjuction with Pinax 0.9. If using the theme with Django < 1.4, you will need to install a recent version of django-staticfiles as we use the {% render %} template tag.
Forms
This theme makes use of django-forms-bootstrap for simple forms support. Make sure you have the latest version of django-forms-bootstrap installed in your virtualenv (if you install this theme with pip it will be installed automatically) and add “django_forms_bootstrap” to your INSTALLED_APPS.
To style forms, add the following to the top of your template
{% load bootstrap_tags %}
and include your form using something like the following markup:
<form>
<legend>My Form</legend>
{% csrf_token %}
{{ form|as_bootstrap }}
<div class="form-actions">
<a href="#back" class="btn">Go back</a>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
</div>
</form>
Bootstrap includes styles for four types of forms. To change the display of your form, add one of the following class attributes to your form tag:
Name |
Class |
Description |
|---|---|---|
Vertical (default) |
.form-vertical |
Stacked, left-aligned labels over controls |
Horizontal |
.form-horizontal |
Float left, right-aligned labels on same line as controls |
Inline |
.form-inline |
Left-aligned label and inline-block controls for compact style |
Search |
.form-search |
Extra-rounded text input for a typical search aesthetic |
Responsive Grid
Bootstrap’s responsive grid makes designing layouts that work well on every device a snap. We’ve included the the responsive stylesheet in this theme by default. If you’d like to remove this from your site, include the following two in your site_base.html:
{# unset the viewport, telling mobile devices to scale your site #}
{% block viewport %}{% endblock %}
{# include all default stylesheets except the responsive grid #}
{% block style_base %}
<link href="{% static "pinax/css/theme.css" %}" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="{% static "bootstrap/css/bootstrap.css" %}" rel="stylesheet">
{% block extra_style %}{% endblock %}
{% endblock %}
Pagination
This theme supports both django-pagination and Django builtin pagination. See PaginationTemplate for information how to switch between them.
Roadmap
The 2.x line of pinax-theme-bootstrap with support for Pinax 0.9 will soon be phased out of major updates. We will be releasing a 3.x line that will break backwards compatibility but fully support Pinax 1.0 projects. This is a change towards a more semantic versioning strategy in lieu of merely indicating which version of Bootstrap media is included.
