Django/docs/3.0.x/ref/contrib/admin/admindocs
The Django admin documentation generator
Django's admindocs
app pulls documentation from the
docstrings of models, views, template tags, and template filters for any app in
INSTALLED_APPS
and makes that documentation available from the
Django admin
.
概况
To activate the admindocs
, you will need to do
the following:
- Add
django.contrib.admindocs
to yourINSTALLED_APPS
. - Add
path('admin/doc/', include('django.contrib.admindocs.urls'))
to yoururlpatterns
. Make sure it's included before the'admin/'
entry, so that requests to/admin/doc/
don't get handled by the latter entry. - Install the docutils Python module (https://docutils.sourceforge.io/).
- Optional: Using the admindocs bookmarklets requires
django.contrib.admindocs.middleware.XViewMiddleware
to be installed.
Once those steps are complete, you can start browsing the documentation by going to your admin interface and clicking the "Documentation" link in the upper right of the page.
Documentation helpers
The following special markup can be used in your docstrings to easily create hyperlinks to other components:
Django Component | reStructuredText roles |
---|---|
模型 | :model:`app_label.ModelName`
|
视图 | :view:`app_label.view_name`
|
模板标签 | :tag:`tagname`
|
模板过滤器 | :filter:`filtername`
|
模板 | :template:`path/to/template.html`
|
Model reference
The models section of the admindocs
page describes each model in the
system along with all the fields, properties, and methods available on it.
Relationships to other models appear as hyperlinks. Descriptions are pulled
from help_text
attributes on fields or from docstrings on model methods.
Older versions don't display model properties.
A model with useful documentation might look like this:
class BlogEntry(models.Model):
"""
Stores a single blog entry, related to :model:`blog.Blog` and
:model:`auth.User`.
"""
slug = models.SlugField(help_text="A short label, generally used in URLs.")
author = models.ForeignKey(
User,
models.SET_NULL,
blank=True, null=True,
)
blog = models.ForeignKey(Blog, models.CASCADE)
...
def publish(self):
"""Makes the blog entry live on the site."""
...
View reference
Each URL in your site has a separate entry in the admindocs
page, and
clicking on a given URL will show you the corresponding view. Helpful things
you can document in your view function docstrings include:
- A short description of what the view does.
- The context, or a list of variables available in the view's template.
- The name of the template or templates that are used for that view.
例子:
from django.shortcuts import render
from myapp.models import MyModel
def my_view(request, slug):
"""
Display an individual :model:`myapp.MyModel`.
**Context**
``mymodel``
An instance of :model:`myapp.MyModel`.
**Template:**
:template:`myapp/my_template.html`
"""
context = {'mymodel': MyModel.objects.get(slug=slug)}
return render(request, 'myapp/my_template.html', context)
Template reference
While admindocs
does not include a place to document templates by
themselves, if you use the :template:`path/to/template.html`
syntax in a
docstring the resulting page will verify the path of that template with
Django's template loaders. This can be a handy way to
check if the specified template exists and to show where on the filesystem that
template is stored.
Included Bookmarklets
One bookmarklet is available from the admindocs
page:
- 关于本页面的文档
- 从任何页面跳转到生成该页面的 view 文档。
Using this bookmarklet requires that XViewMiddleware
is installed and that
you are logged into the Django admin
as a
User
with
is_staff
set to True
.
