Requirements

Django 1.3 or later

Installation

$ pip install django_extjs4

Setup

Just add 'django.contrib.staticfiles' and 'django_extjs4' to INSTALLED_APPS in your settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    # ...

    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'extjs4',

    # ...
)

Refer to Django static files documentation to configure and deploy static files.

Template context

The extjs4.context_processors.extjs4 template context adds exports the EXTJS4_DEBUG attribute from settings.py to your Django templates. This is useful if you want to be able to test your production ExtJS app on the Django test server, since setting DEBUG to True disables staticfiles. If you add the template context, but do not set EXTJS4_DEBUG in settings.py, it defaults to False.

See generic_extjs4_app in django_extjs4_examples for how-to use extjs4.views.Extjs4AppView.
