Admin-editable settings for Wagtail projects
Project description
A plugin for Wagtail that provides add developer-defined settings to the admin.
Installing
Install using pip:
pip install wagtailsettings
It works with Wagtail 0.5 and upwards.
Add it to your INSTALLED_APPS:
INSTALLED_APPS += [
'wagtailnews',
]
Using
Create a model that inherits from BaseSetting, and register it using the register_setting decorator:
from wagtailnews.models import BaseSetting, register_setting
@register_setting
class SocialMediaSettings(BaseSetting):
facebook = models.URLField(
help_text='Your Facebook page URL')
instagram = models.CharField(
max_length=255, help_text='Your Instagram username, without the @')
trip_advisor = models.URLField(
help_text='Your Trip Advisor page URL')
youtube = models.URLField(
help_text='Your YouTube channel or user account URL')
A ‘Settings’ link will appear in the Wagtail admin, with links to each of the settings models defined.
Using in Python
If access to a setting is required in the code, the BaseSetting.for_site method will retrieve the setting for the supplied site:
def view(request):
social_media_settings = SocialMediaSettings.for_site(request.site)
...
Using in Templates
Add the request and wagtailnews context processors to your settings:
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = global_settings.TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS + (
'django.core.context_processors.request',
'wagtailsettings.context_processors.settings',
)
Then access the settings through settings:
{{ settings.app_label.SocialMediaSettings.instagram }}
If you are not in a RequestContext, then context processors will not have run, and the settings variable will not be availble. To get the settings, use the provided template tags:
{% load wagtailsettings_tags %}
{% get_settings %}
{{ settings.app_label.SocialMediaSettings.instagram }}
