Django admin CKEditor integration.
Project description
Django admin CKEditor integration.
Provides a RichTextField and CKEditorWidget utilizing CKEditor with image upload and browsing support included.
Installation
Install or add django-ckeditor to your python path.
Add ckeditor to your INSTALLED_APPS setting.
Copy the media/ckeditor directory into any directory within your media root. You can override the location in your settings (see below).
Add a CKEDITOR_MEDIA_PREFIX setting to the project’s settings.py file. This setting specifies a URL prefix to the ckeditor JS and CSS media (not uploaded media). Make sure to use a trailing slash:
CKEDITOR_MEDIA_PREFIX = "/media/ckeditor/"
Add a CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PATH setting to the project’s settings.py file. This setting specifies an absolute path to your ckeditor media upload directory. Make sure you have write permissions for the path, i.e.:
CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PATH = "/home/media/media.lawrence.com/uploads"
Add ckeditor url include to the project’s url.py file:
(r'^ckeditor/', include('ckeditor.urls')),Optionally, add a CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PREFIX setting to the project’s settings.py file. This setting specifies a URL prefix to media uploaded through ckeditor, i.e.:
CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PREFIX = "http://media.lawrence.com/media/ckuploads/
(If CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PREFIX is not provided, the media URL will fall back to MEDIA_URL with the difference of MEDIA_ROOT and CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PATH appended.)
Usage
Field
The quickest way to add rich text editing capabilities to your models is to use the included RichTextField model field type. A CKEditor widget is rendered as the form field but in all other regards the field behaves as the standard Django TextField. For example:
from django.db import models
from ckeditor.fields import RichTextField
class Post(models.Model):
content = RichTextField()
Widget
Alernatively you can use the included CKEditorWidget as the widget for a formfield. For example:
from django import forms
from django.contrib import admin
from ckeditor.widgets import CKEditorWidget
from post.models import Post
class PostAdminForm(forms.ModelForm):
content = forms.CharField(widget=CKEditorWidget())
class Meta:
model = Post
class PostAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
form = PostAdminForm
admin.site.register(Post, PostAdmin)
