tgapp-userprofile 0.3.3

About userprofile

userprofile is a Pluggable application for TurboGears2 which provides a basic user profile page with forms to allow users to edit their own profile or change their password.

This is a fork born to provide validation to the existing pluggable, but introduces breaking changes. the password is now on the same form, you can now set the avatar, your users must confirm their email if they change it.

Installing

userprofile can be installed both from pypi or from github:

pip install tgapp-userprofile

should just work for most of the users

Plugging userprofile

In your application config/app_cfg.py import plug:

from tgext.pluggable import plug

Then at the end of the file call plug with userprofile:

plug(base_config, 'userprofile')

You will be able to access your profile at http://localhost:8080/userprofile.

Options

tgapp-userprofile supports some options that can be passed to the plug method to customize various aspects of the application:

• user_partial - Path of a partial to display into the user profile page.

  Useful to add more data to the profile page without changing its template

• custom_css - Path to a CSS file which will be used for the profile pages in place of the default one.

User Properties

tgapp-userprofile looks for various properties into the User class instances to drive its default behavior, the most important property is the profile_data property which can provide a dictionary with the user information to display on the profile page, but other properties are available to tune the behavior:

{'display_name':('Display Name', user.display_name),
 'email_address':('Email Address', user.email_address)}

Bootstrap Layout

If you want use bootstrap for beautify style of UserForm or ChangePasswordForm form layout, in your app_cfg:

def replace_profile_form_layout():
    from axf.bootstrap import BootstrapFormLayout
    from userprofile.lib import UserForm
    from userprofile.lib import ChangePasswordForm

    UserForm.child = BootstrapFormLayout(children=UserForm.child.children)
    UserForm.submit.css_class = 'btn-primary form-control'

    ChangePasswordForm.child = BootstrapFormLayout(children=ChangePasswordForm.child.children)
    ChangePasswordForm.submit.css_class = 'btn-primary form-control'

milestones.config_ready.register(replace_profile_form_layout)
