Support for Multiple AdminSites.

[nchampsavoir]

Django-Suit does not support multiple AdminSites on the same Django instance. The left menu relies on admin.site to check which app/model is available, and which one is active.

It would be great to support multiple admin sites. One possible (backward compatible) solution to accept additional keys in the SUIT_CONFIG configuration item. Those keys would map AdminSite names to nested SUIT_CONFIG options that overload the default ones ?

I recently used suit in a multi-admin setting, and the left menu is easily changed by creating your own template tag based on the suit_menu tag (suit/templatetags/suit_menu.py) and replacing the admin.site (line 20) reference with your custom AdminSite instance... which could be derived based on the request URL that is already being passed to the get_menu template tag.

However, I do second the thought that suit should support multiple admin sites more natively. (ie: full config settings and what not)

This is really lame. It's not that hard to connect custom AdminSite into suit. I had been looking for my mistake till I saw Scott's comment here. Waste of time. Thanks Scott.

By the way, you don't have to replace default AdminSite. You can add your AdminSite by combining your app_list with default's. For example:

import my_app

template_response = admin.site.index(request)
template_response_my_admin = my_app.admin.my_admin_instance.index(request)
    try:
        app_list = template_response.context_data['app_list'] + template_response_my_admin.context_data['app_list']
    except Exception:
        return

You can both try latest develop branch - this commit should choose right apps for menu.
However there is currently no way to separate which Suit settings and extra menu should be applied to which admin_site, i need more time to develop that.

If anybody cares: here is a monkey patch to support custom SUIT_CONFIGs per AdminSite:
