django-app-namespace-template-loader 0.1

Provides a template loader that allows you to load a template from a specific application. This allows you to both extend and override a template at the same time.

The default Django loaders require you to copy the entire template you want to override, even if you only want to override one small block.

Template usage example (extend and override the title block of Django admin base template):

$ cat my-project/templates/admin/base_site.html
{% extends "admin:admin/base_site.html" %}

{% block title %}{{ title }} - My Project{% endblock %}

Simply add this line into the TEMPLATE_LOADERS setting of your project to benefit this feature once the module installed.

TEMPLATE_LOADERS = [
  'app_namespace.Loader',
  ... # Others template loader
]
