One of the most useful parts of django.contrib.admin is the ability to configure various views that touch and alter data. django-admin2 is a complete rewrite of that library using modern Class-Based Views and enjoying a design focused on extendibility and adaptability. By starting over, we can avoid the legacy code and make it easier to write extensions and themes.
Full Documentation at: https://django-admin2.readthedocs.io/
Use pip to install from PyPI:
pip install django-admin2
Add djadmin2 and rest_framework to your settings file:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'djadmin2',
'rest_framework', # for the browsable API templates
...
)
Add setting for apps and the default theme in your settings file:
# In settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS += ('djadmin2.themes.djadmin2theme_bootstrap3',)
REST_FRAMEWORK = {
'DEFAULT_PAGINATION_CLASS': 'rest_framework.pagination.PageNumberPagination',
'PAGE_SIZE': 10
}
ADMIN2_THEME_DIRECTORY = "djadmin2theme_bootstrap3"
Add djadmin2 urls to your URLconf:
# urls.py from django.conf.urls import include from djadmin2.site import djadmin2_site djadmin2_site.autodiscover() urlpatterns = [ ... url(r'^admin2/', include(djadmin2_site.urls)), ]How to write django-admin2 modules
# myapp/admin2.py
# Import your custom models
from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm, UserChangeForm
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from djadmin2.site import djadmin2_site
from djadmin2.types import ModelAdmin2
from .models import Post, Comment
class UserAdmin2(ModelAdmin2):
# Replicates the traditional admin for django.contrib.auth.models.User
create_form_class = UserCreationForm
update_form_class = UserChangeForm
# Register each model with the admin
djadmin2_site.register(Post)
djadmin2_site.register(Comment)
djadmin2_site.register(User, UserAdmin2)
Therefore, your settings need to include this:
# In settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS += ('djadmin2.themes.djadmin2theme_bootstrap3',)
ADMIN2_THEME_DIRECTORY = "djadmin2theme_bootstrap3"
REST_FRAMEWORK = {
'DEFAULT_PAGINATION_CLASS': 'rest_framework.pagination.PageNumberPagination',
'PAGE_SIZE': 10
}
The default admin2 site has move into djadmin2.site make sure your use the news djadmin2_site in your urls.py:
# urls.py from django.conf.urls import include from djadmin2.site import djadmin2_site djadmin2_site.autodiscover() urlpatterns = [ ... url(r'^admin2/', include(djadmin2_site.urls)), ]
Themes are now defined explicitly, including the default theme. Therefore, your settings need to include this:
# In settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS += ('djadmin2.themes.djadmin2theme_default',)
ADMIN2_THEME_DIRECTORY = "djadmin2theme_default"
The default theme is whatever bootstrap is most current. Specifically:
# In settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS += ('djadmin2.themes.djadmin2theme_bootstrap3',)
ADMIN2_THEME_DIRECTORY = "djadmin2theme_bootstrap3"
If you create a new theme, you define it thus:
# In settings.py
# Mythical theme! This does not exit... YET!
INSTALLED_APPS += ('djadmin2theme_foundation',)
ADMIN2_THEME_DIRECTORY = "djadmin2theme_foundation"

This project follows best practices as espoused in Two Scoops of Django: Best Practices for Django 1.8.
