Thumbnails for ImageFields in django admin.

Project description

django_admin_thumbnail

This is a package developed to help you with ImageField visualization in your ModelAdmin. It automatically creates user friendly thumbnail for any ImageField you choose to put in your list_display.

All you have to do is to switch from ModelAdmin to ThumbAdmin subclass. It’s super easy to use:

The Looks

This is how it looks when you hover your cursor over an ImageField column:

Usage

Insert admin_thumbnail to the end of your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'admin_thumbnail',
    ...
)

Now, your ModelAdmin must look like this:

from models import ModelExample
from admin_thumbnail import thumb_admin
from django.contrib import admin

class ModelExampleAdmin(thumb_admin.ThumbAdmin):
    list_display = ('an_image_field',)

admin.register(ModelExample, ModelExampleAdmin)

After that you must create your DB table that manages the cached thumbnails:

python manage.py syncdb

Yes! It’s THAT simple!
