feincms-articles Description

feincms-articles is an extensible FeinCMS content article system for Django, designed to provide a simple Article model that is extensible. The concept (and some code) is borrowed from the (https://github.com/matthiask/feincms) Page model.Installation and setupFirstly, get the package.pip install feincms-articlesYou will then need to add `articles` to your `INSTALLED_APPS` setting.Before proceeding with `manage.py syncdb`, you may want to add some article extensions. By default the articles module has a basic set of content fields such as title, summary and content.ExtensionsExtensions are a way to add often-used functionality the Article model. The extensions are standard python modules with a `register()` method which will be called upon registering the extension. The `register()` method receives the `Article` class itself and the model admin class `ArticleAdmin` as arguments.The extensions can be activated by adding the following to a the bottom of a `models.py` file that will be processed anyway:from articles.models import ArticleArticle.register_extensions('articles.modules.category.extensions.category', 'datepublisher', 'tags', 'thumbnail')If the extension requires it's own models (like the category extension) then the app containing the models will also need to be added to your `INSTALLED_APPS`.ContentTypesYou need to create some FeinCMS content types to add to your Articles. No models are created by default, because there is no way to unregister models. A sane default might be to create `ImageContent` and `RichTextContent` models; you can do this by adding the following lines somewhere into your project, for example at the bottom of a `models.py` file that will be processed anyway:from feincms.content.richtext.models import RichTextContentfrom feincms.content.image.models import ImageContentfrom articles.models import ArticleArticle.register_regions(('top', _('Top content')), ('main', _('Main region')),)Article.create_content_type(RichTextContent)Article.create_content_type(ImageContent, POSITION_CHOICES=(('block', _('block')), ('left', _('left')), ('right', _('right')),))Adding extensionsTo add an extension create a python module that defines a register function that accepts the Article class and the ArticleAdmin class as arguments and modifies them as required.Here is the address extension (profiles/extensions/tags.py):def register(cls, admin_cls):cls.add_to_class('tags', TaggableManager(verbose_name=_('tags'), blank=True))cls.urlpatterns += patterns('taggit.views',url(r'^tags/(?P+)/$', 'tagged_object_list', {'queryset': cls.objects.active}, name="article_tagged_list"),)if admin_cls:if admin_cls.fieldsets:admin_cls.fieldsets.append('tags')Product's homepage
