armstrong.hatband

Provides an enhanced Django admin interface and utilities for use in Armstrong.

Notably it brings VisualSearch.js for fast content lookup, CKEditor as a fully featured rich-text editor and other features like drag 'n drop JavaScript for easy programming of orderable content (like lists).

Usage

Installation & Configuration

Supports Django 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6 on Python 2.6 and 2.7.

  1. pip install armstrong.hatband
  2. Add armstrong.hatband to your INSTALLED_APPS
  3. In urls.py replace the normal admin with Hatband, from armstrong import hatband as admin.

    The rest of the URL configuration stays identical to what is expected for the traditional Django admin.
