A role based admin UI for Django that produces a user friendly and beautiful UI.

Project description

Django cradmin

Django custom role based admin UI.

Django cradmin is in BETA. The system is fairly stable, but:

  • We do not have getting started guides.
  • We should have better tests before release. Some parts have been prototyped a lot while we tested out different concepts, and they need a complexity review and better tests.
  • Works with Django 4 and python >=3.8,<3.11

Develop

Requires:

Use conventional commits for GIT commit messages

See https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/. You can use this git commit message format in many different ways, but the easiest is:

Install hatch and commitizen

NOTE: You only need hatch if you need to build releases, and you only need commitizen for releases OR to make it easy to follow conventional commits for your commit messages (see Use conventional commits for GIT commit messages above).

First install pipx with:

$ brew install pipx
$ pipx ensurepath

Then install hatch and commitizen:

$ pipx install hatch 
$ pipx install commitizen

See https://github.com/pypa/pipx, https://hatch.pypa.io/latest/install/ and https://commitizen-tools.github.io/commitizen/ for more install alternatives if needed, but we really recommend using pipx since that is isolated.

Install development dependencies

Install a local python version with pyenv:

$ pyenv install 3.10
$ pyenv local 3.10

Create virtualenv

$ ./recreate-virtualenv.sh

Alternatively, create virtualenv manually (this does the same as recreate-virtualenv.sh):

$ python -m venv .venv

the ./recreate-virtualenv.sh script is just here to make creating virtualenvs more uniform across different repos because some repos will require extra setup in the virtualenv for package authentication etc.

Install dependencies

$ python -m venv .venv
$ source .venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -e ".[dev, test]"

Run dev server

$ source .venv/bin/activate   # enable virtualenv
$ ievv devrun

Run tests

$ source .venv/bin/activate   # enable virtualenv
$ pytest django_cradmin

How to release django_cradmin

First make sure you have NO UNCOMITTED CHANGES!

Buildstatic

Remove the previous built static files:

   $ git rm -r django_cradmin/apps/django_cradmin_js/static/django_cradmin_js/ django_cradmin/apps/django_cradmin_styles/static/django_cradmin_styles/

Temporary bump version

$ cz bump --dry-run

In the first line, starting with "bump", you'll see the new version. Manually go to django_cradmin/__ini__.py and set the new version. This must be the same as the one found in the first line after running cz bump --dry-run

Create new production static files

$ ievv buildstatic --production

Undo temporary version

Undo the version change sat in django_cradmin/__ini__.py before committing production static files

Commit static files

$ git add django_cradmin/apps/django_cradmin_js/static/django_cradmin_js/ django_cradmin/apps/django_cradmin_styles/static/django_cradmin_styles/

Use cz commit to get a good conventional commit.

Release (create changelog, increment version, commit and tag the change) with:

$ cz bump
$ git push && git push --tags

NOTE (release):

  • cz bump automatically updates CHANGELOG.md, updates version file(s), commits the change and tags the release commit.
  • If you are unsure about what cz bump will do, run it with --dry-run. You can use options to force a specific version instead of the one it automatically selects from the git log if needed, BUT if this is needed, it is a sign that someone has messed up with their conventional commits.
  • When you push, the Azure devops pipeline will take care of the rest. It will see the bump: version ... commit, and release the python package to the artifact registry.
  • cz bump only works if conventional commits (see section about that above) is used.
  • cz bump can take a specific version etc, but it automatically select the correct version if conventional commits has been used correctly. See https://commitizen-tools.github.io/commitizen/.
  • If you need to add more to CHANGELOG.md (migration guide, etc), you can just edit CHANGELOG.md after the release, and commit the change with a docs: some useful message commit.
  • The cz command comes from commitizen (install documented above).

What if the release fails?

See How to revert a bump in the commitizen FAQ.

Release to pypi:

$ hatch build -t sdist
$ hatch publish
$ rm dist/*              # optional cleanup
