Things needed for Admin-UI:

In general, commits should be broken up into a series of patches -- 1 for each incremental improvement or feature (e.g. autocomplete, selector inlines, etc).

• Docs
  • SelectorInlines
• All the JS for the admin should be minified, but we need to ship maximized versions too, for ease of editing, and then have a build process do the minification.
  • Note: This is better saved for last.
• Updating the old Javascript to use jQuery is an end goal, but not one required to get admin-ui merged.
• Document where js libs come from for ease of checking on new versions and finding full source.

Features on the soc2009/admin-ui branch:

1. jQuery itself.
2. Stacked Inline add new inline dynamically.
3. Selector Inlines (based on Wilson Miner's mockup ​http://media.wilsonminer.com/images/django/related-objects-stacked.gif)
4. Tabular Inline ordering. Given an order_field on the TabularInline admin object.
5. models.fields.OrderField added, subclass of IntegerField with default=0.
6. django.forms.formsets grew a empty_form method with prefix set to __prefix__ which Javascript replaces with a value when dynamically adding new inlines.
7. ForeignKeySearchInput widget, which does autocompletion on Foreign key fields.
8. ManyToManySearchInput, autocompletion for m2m fields.
