Articles management app for Django CMS

Project description

Articles manager for Django CMS

This CMS app provides a way to manage articles. You need to implement the frontend by yourself.

Getting started

  1. Install with pip: pip install cmsplugin-articles-ai
    • Note that if you want to use factories and management for generating test data, you need to install optional requirements too. You can do that either by manually installing them by running pip install cmsplugin-articles-ai[utils]

  2. Add 'cmsplugin_articles_ai' and 'publisher' to INSTALLED_APPS

  3. Add 'publisher.middleware.PublisherMiddleware' to MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES

  4. Implement frontend
    • This package includes only reference templates in (templates/cmsplugin-articles-ai/).

    • This package does not include any styling.

Features

Attachments

Articles can have file attachments. The attachments can be image or pdf for example.

Categories

Articles can be categorized. Categories have their own list views that list the articles belonging in that article. Categories can be filtered by tags.

Publish states

Articles can have saved drafts which are not public. Draft can be published from admin interface with a push of a button.

Tags

Articles can be tagged and lists filtered by tags. Article can have any number of tags.

Usage

You will see additional publish workflow buttons in the article edit page. Article needs to be saved before you can preview the changes by clicking “Preview Draft” button in the top bar. You need to be logged in as staff user and have edit mode on when previewing the changes. If you are happy with the changes, go to the article edit page and click “Publish Draft” button. Changes will be visible to anonymous users only after publishing the draft.

If you are updating existing project which has articles in the database already, you can use python manage.py publish_model cmsplugin_articles_ai.models.Article command to generate published versions for all of them. Without a published version, article is not visible to anonymous users!

Installing for development

Use pip install -e /path/to/checkout to install as “editable” package to your venv
