Setup
Step 1
In your models.py add the field comments (Please note that field name must be comments not comment) to the model for which comment should be added (e.g. Post) and the appropriate imports as shown below:
from django.contrib.contenttypes.fields import GenericRelation
from comment.models import Comment
class Post(models.Model):
author = models.ForeignKey(User)
title = models.CharField(max_length=200)
body = models.TextField()
# the field name should be comments
comments = GenericRelation(Comment)Step 2
get_comments tag uses 2 positional and 3 optional args:
The instance of the model. (positional)
Request object. (positional)
oauth. (optional - Default is false)
paginate. (optional - Default is false)
cpp (number of Comments Per Page - Default is 10)
1. Basics usage:
include_static this tag will include required jquery and javascript file. include_bootstrap for bootstrap 4.1.1 if it’s already included in your project, get rid of this tag.
In your template (e.g. post-detail.html) add the following template tags where object is the instance of post.
{% load comment_tags %} # Loading the template tag
{% get_comments object request %} # Include all the comments belonging to a certain object
{% include_bootstrap %} # Include bootstrap 4.1.1 - remove this line if BS 4.1.1 is already used in your project
{% include_static %} # Include jQuery 3.2.1 and required js file2. Advanced usage:
1. Add pagination:
To add pagination to your comments, you need to pass two variables to the get_comments tag. paginate must be set to True and set cpp var (number of comments per page - default is 10) to the desired number of comments per page. e.g. If you would like to have 5 comments per page, the get_comments tag should look like this:
{% load comment_tags %} # Loading the template tag {% get_comments object request paginate=True cpp=5 %} # Include all the comments belonging to a certain object {% include_bootstrap %} # Include bootstrap 4.1.1 - remove this line if BS 4.1.1 is already used in your project {% include_static %} # Include jQuery 3.2.1 and required js file2. Integrate existing profile app with comments app:
If you have profile model for the user and you would like to show the profile image on each comment you need to assign PROFILE_APP_NAME and PROFILE_MODEL_NAME variables in your settings.py file. (e.g if user profile app is called accounts and profile model is called UserProfile) Update your settings.py:
PROFILE_APP_NAME = 'accounts' PROFILE_MODEL_NAME = 'UserProfile' # letter case insensitive
Customize Styling
- If you want to customize the default style of comments app , you can do the following steps:
Create a comment.css file inside your static/css directory.
The new created file will overwrite the original file used in the app.
and you’re done.
