django-cruds

django-cruds is simple drop-in django app that creates CRUD (Create, read, update and delete) views for existing models and apps.

django-cruds goal is to make prototyping faster.

Documentation

To add CRUD for whole app, add this to urls.py:

from cruds.urls import crud_for_app
urlpatterns += crud_for_app('testapp')

This will create following urls and appropriate views (assuming there is a application named testapp with model Author:

URL	name
/testapp/author/	testapp_author_list
/testapp/author/new/	testapp_author_create
/testapp/author/(?P<pk>d+)/	testapp_author_detail
/testapp/author/(?P<pk>d+)/edit/	testapp_author_update
/testapp/author/(?P<pk>d+)/remove/	testapp_author_delete

It is also possible to add CRUD for one model:

from django.db.models.loading import get_model
from cruds.urls import crud_for_model
urlpatterns += crud_for_model(get_model('testapp', 'Author'))

crud_fields templatetag displays fields for an object:

{% load crud_tags %}

<table class="table">
  <tbody>
    {% crud_fields object "name, description" %}
  </tbody>
</table>

Customizable CRUD url patterns crud_urls:

urlpatterns += crud_urls(
    Author,
    list_view=MyAuthorListView.as_view(),
    activate=ActivateAuthorView.as_view(),
)

Use cruds.util.crud_url shortcut function to quickly get url for instance for given action:

crud_url(author, 'update')

Is same as:

reverse('testapp_author_update', kwargs={'pk': author.pk})

cruds.util.crud_url accepts Model class as well for list actions, ie:

crud_url(Author, 'list') crud_url(Author, 'create')

cruds.util.crud_permission_name returns permission name using Django naming convention, ie: testapp.change_author.

Templates

django-cruds views will append CRUD template name to a list of default candidate template names for given action.

CRUD Templates are:

cruds/create.html
cruds/delete.html
cruds/detail.html
cruds/list.html
cruds/update.html
