django-admin-autocomplete-list-filter

Ajax autocomplete list filter helper for Django admin. Uses Django’s built-in autocomplete widget! No extra package or install required!

Installation and Usage

Questo fork Briq si installa dal repository git interno (è la modalità usata da tutti i deployment Briq), non da PyPI.

Con Poetry (stile [tool.poetry.dependencies]):

django-admin-autocomplete-list-filter = {git = "https://git.briq.it/Briq/django-admin-autocomplete-list-filter.git"}

Con il formato PEP 621 ([project] dependencies, Poetry 2.x):

dependencies = [
    "django-admin-autocomplete-list-filter @ git+https://git.briq.it/Briq/django-admin-autocomplete-list-filter.git",
]

Add djaa_list_filter to INSTALLED_APPS in your settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'djaa_list_filter',           
]

Now, let’s look at this example model:

# models.py

from django.conf import settings
from django.db import models


class Post(models.Model):
    category = models.ForeignKey(to='Category', on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='posts')
    author = models.ForeignKey(to=settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='posts')
    title = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    body = models.TextField()
    tags = models.ManyToManyField(to='Tag', blank=True)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.title


class Category(models.Model):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=255)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.title


class Tag(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=255)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.name

We have 2 ForeignKey fields and one ManyToManyField to enable autocomplete list filter feature on admin. All you need is to inherit from AjaxAutocompleteListFilterModelAdmin which inherits from Django’s admin.ModelAdmin.

Now we have an extra ModelAdmin method: autocomplete_list_filter. Uses Django Admin’s search_fields logic. You need to enable search_fields in the related ModelAdmin. To enable completion on Category relation, CategoryAdmin should have search_fields that’s it!

from django.contrib import admin

from djaa_list_filter.admin import (
    AjaxAutocompleteListFilterModelAdmin,
)

from .models import Category, Post, Tag


@admin.register(Post)
class PostAdmin(AjaxAutocompleteListFilterModelAdmin):
    list_display = ('__str__', 'author', 'show_tags')
    autocomplete_list_filter = ('category', 'author', 'tags')

    def show_tags(self, obj):
        return ' , '.join(obj.tags.values_list('name', flat=True))


@admin.register(Category)
class CategoryAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    search_fields = ['title']
    ordering = ['title']


@admin.register(Tag)
class TagAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    search_fields = ['name']
    ordering = ['name']

Note di questo fork (Briq)

• Media locale-aware: jQuery/select2/autocomplete sono caricati derivandoli dal widget AutocompleteSelect di Django, quindi il select2 viene tradotto nella lingua attiva (es. it) e i percorsi restano corretti tra le versioni di Django. Non serve più mantenere una lista hard-coded dei media.
• Reset paginazione: cambiando il filtro la querystring viene ricostruita senza il parametro p, così si torna a pagina 1 come fanno i link filtro standard dell'admin (niente più "pagina senza risultati").
