Display django permissions in a tabular format that is user friendly, and highly customisable

Project description

django-tabular-permissions
##########################
Display Django basic permissions (add, change & delete) in a tabular format that is user friendly, translatable and easy customized.
If you have more customised permissions, the default `FilteredSelectMultiple` widget will also appear to handle those permissions.

Features:
---------
* Permissions are displayed in a active language with app and model ``verbose_name``.
* Any extra custom permissions are displayed in the default admin widget for permissions.
* Customize which apps, models to show in the permissions table. You can also set a exclude function for high-end customization.
* RTL ready, Bootstrap ready.
* Easy customize-able look.
* Tested on Django 1.8 & Django 1.9.
* Tested on Python 2.7, 3.4 & 3.5

Installation
------------
You can install `django-tabular-permissions` via Pypi::

pip install django-tabular-permissions

Usage:
------
Simply add "tabular_permissions" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this::

INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'tabular_permissions',
]

then navigate to User and/or Group change form to see django-tabular-permissions in action.

Settings:
---------

* ``TABULAR_PERMISSIONS_EXCLUDE``

Control which apps, models to show in the permissions table.
By default tabular_permissions exclude contrib apps ``sessions`` , ``contenttypes`` and ``admin`` apps from
showing their models in the permissions table.
You can add (or override) those apps and/or specify models to exclude, like this::

TABULAR_PERMISSIONS_EXCLUDE = {
'app': [],
'model': [],
'function': 'tabular_permissions.helpers.TabularPermissionDefaultExcludeFunction',
# A dotted path to a class that implement ``__call__`` that takes model as an argument.
'override': False # Set to True to override default behavior.
}


* ``TABULAR_PERMISSIONS_AUTO_IMPLEMENT``

By default, just by including `tabular_permissions` in your installed_apps, the ``django.contrib.admin.UserAdmin`` (and ``GroupAdmin``) are "patched" to include the tabular_permissions widget.
If you have a custom UserAdmin, then set this option to False and make sure you either:

1. Inherit from `TabularPermissionsUserAdmin` for User admin and from``TabularPermissionsGroupAdmin`` for group admin
2. Inherit from ``UserTabularPermissionsAdminBase`` and ``GroupTabularPermissionsAdminBase`` before admin.ModelAdmin or UserAdmin/GroupAdmin,
3. Set the user_permissions widget to ``tabular_permissions.widgets.TabularPermissionsWidget`` and remember to send a 3rd argument 'permissions' when in Group admin. See ``tabular_permissions.admin`` for information.


* ``TABULAR_PERMISSIONS_TEMPLATE``

Default to 'tabular_permissions/admin/tabular_permissions.html`.
You can either extend or override this template for maximum control.
