django-apps

Installation

As usual. Place django_apps somewhere in your python path or install it using easy_install:

easy_install django-apps

Then, add django_apps to the INSTALLED_APPS.

Usage

In the any template use template tag installed_apps to receive a list of installed apps along with some information about them.

I use following code in my template, to show apps names along with their versions and descriptions.

{% load apps_tags %}
{% installed_apps as apps %}
<table class="apps">
{% for app in apps %}
    <tr>
        <td>{{ app.name }}</td>
        <td>{{ app.version }}</td>
        <td>{{ app.description }}</td>
    </tr>
{% endfor %}
</table>

You can find an example result at my own 'Installed Apps' page: http://aartemenko.com/about/apps/

Please, note, that descriptions are hardcoded into the code of the django_apps.
