**django-nested-admin** is a project that makes it possible to nest
admin inlines (that is, to define inlines on InlineModelAdmin classes).
It is compatible with Django 3.2+ and Python 3.7+ and works with or
without Grappelli. When Grappelli is not installed it allows
Grappelli-like drag-and-drop functionality.

Installation
============

The recommended way to install django-nested-admin is from
`PyPI <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-nested-admin>`_::

        pip install django-nested-admin

Alternatively, one can install a development copy of django-nested-admin
from source::

        pip install -e git+git://github.com/theatlantic/django-nested-admin.git#egg=django-nested-admin

If the source is already checked out, use setuptools to install::

        python setup.py develop

Configuration
=============

To use django-nested-admin in your project, ``"nested_admin"`` must be added
to the ``INSTALLED_APPS`` in your settings:

.. code-block:: python

    INSTALLED_APPS = (
        # ...
        'nested_admin',
    )

If you’re using `django-grappelli <https://github.com/sehmaschine/django-grappelli>`_,
you will also need to add to include ``nested_admin.urls`` in your urlpatterns:

.. code-block:: python

    urlpatterns = [
        # ...
        path('_nested_admin/', include('nested_admin.urls')),
    ]

Example Usage
=============

In order to use ``django-nested-admin``, use the following classes in
place of their django admin equivalents:

========================  ======================
**django.contrib.admin**  **nested_admin**      
------------------------  ----------------------
ModelAdmin                NestedModelAdmin           
InlineModelAdmin          NestedInlineModelAdmin
StackedInline             NestedStackedInline   
TabularInline             NestedTabularInline
========================  ======================

There is also ``nested_admin.NestedGenericStackedInline`` and
``nested_admin.NestedGenericTabularInline`` which are the nesting-capable
versions of ``GenericStackedInline`` and ``GenericTabularInline`` in
``django.contrib.contenttypes.admin``.

.. code-block:: python

    # An example admin.py for a Table of Contents app

    from django.contrib import admin
    import nested_admin

    from .models import TableOfContents, TocArticle, TocSection

    class TocArticleInline(nested_admin.NestedStackedInline):
        model = TocArticle
        sortable_field_name = "position"

    class TocSectionInline(nested_admin.NestedStackedInline):
        model = TocSection
        sortable_field_name = "position"
        inlines = [TocArticleInline]

    class TableOfContentsAdmin(nested_admin.NestedModelAdmin):
        inlines = [TocSectionInline]

    admin.site.register(TableOfContents, TableOfContentsAdmin)

Testing
=======

django-nested-admin has fairly extensive test coverage.
The best way to run the tests is with `tox <https://testrun.org/tox/latest/>`_,
which runs the tests against all supported Django installs. To run the tests
within a virtualenv run ``pytest`` from the repository directory. The tests
require a selenium webdriver to be installed. By default the tests run with
phantomjs, but it is also possible to run the tests with the chrome webdriver
by passing ``--selenosis-driver=chrome`` to ``pytest`` or, if running with
tox, running ``tox -- --selenosis-driver=chrome``. See ``pytest --help`` for
a complete list of the options available.

Contributing
============

This project uses `webpack <https://webpack.js.org/>`_ for building its
javascript and css. To install the dependencies for the build process, run
``npm install`` from the root of the repository. You can then run
``npm run build`` to rebuild the static files.
