django-facebox 0.2.1

Installation

pip install django-facebox

Setup

Add facebox to INSTALLED_APPS:

INSTALLED_APPS += (
    'facebox',
)

Be sure you have the django.template.context_processors.request processor

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        ...
        'OPTIONS': {
            'context_processors': [
                ...
                'django.template.context_processors.request',
            ],
        },
    },
]

and just include facebox templates

{% include "facebox/facebox_css.html" %} {# Before the closing head tag #}
{% include "facebox/facebox_js.html" %} {# Before the closing body tag #}

When deploying on production server, don’t forget to run :

python manage.py collectstatic

Usage

Extend base template for ajax requests

{% extends request.is_ajax|yesno:"facebox/base.html,base.html" %}

Add rel="facebox" to a link, and set the href to a page you want to display

<a href="{% url 'remote.html' %}" rel="facebox">Click here</a>

Please see example application. This application is used to manually test the functionalities of this package. This also serves as a good example.

You need only Django 1.4 or above to run that. It might run on older versions but that is not tested.
