Noodles is an app containing all sorts of misc. bits of code that I see to use across projects.
There aren't really any connecting dots or common design patterns. It's just stuff I use.
The pieces that noodles offers are explained in the Documentation
First, install with pip (for the time being, noodles is only available directly from github):
pip install git+https://github.com/Brant/django-noodles.git@master
Then, add noodles to your installed apps:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'noodles',
)
To run the the test suite:
virtualenv env
. ./env/bin/activate
pip install -r noodles_tests/requirements.txt
./noodles_tests/runtests.py
