Description

For sites with a lot of apps installed, the index page of the admin system can get pretty long. I propose (and I'm not the first) to add application specific index pages to Django's admin system. The template path for this page will be ('admin/myapp/app_index.html', 'admin/app_index.html') where myapp the is app_label part of the url. This page should be added to the breadcrumbs throughout the admin system as well.

This patch could still be improved via refactoring, and by using the new reverse url lookup stuff (not sure if it's finalized yet) but at least there's no more copy/pasted code. What would really make it clean is a nice interface for app/model metadata. If anyone has any specific nits to pick with this patch, I'll address them. Otherwise consider this submitted for inclusion.

I take the copy/paste part back. The admin/app_index.html template is pretty much just a slightly modified copy of admin/index.html. The reverse url stuff would provide a nice fix for that though.

  • needs_better_patch set to 1.
  • stage changed from Unreviewed to Design decision needed.

For what it's worth, I like the idea, but if it is given a green-light, it'll need to be rewritten for the newforms version of admin

  • status changed from new to closed.
  • resolution set to duplicate.

Marking this a duplicate of #1390 because the patch there is against newforms-admin and accomplishes the same thing.
