Description:

djangoapptemplates 1.5

django-apptemplates is a Django template loader that allows you to load a
template from a specific application. By this you can both extend and
override a template at the same time. The default Django loaders require
you to copy the entire template you want to override, even if you only
want to override one small block.
Based on: http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1376/

Version Support
django-apptemplates is tested against the officially supported combinations
of Python and Django, since Django 1.4 (Django 1.4 to 3.0 on Python 2.7, and
3.4 to 3.8).

Installation, Setup and Use
This package is available from PyPI. To install it simply execute:
$ pip install django-apptemplates

Settings (for Django 1.8+)

{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
'OPTIONS': {
'loaders': [
'apptemplates.Loader',
'django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader',
'django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader',

{% extends "admin:admin/base.html" %}
The part before the colon (:) is called the Django app namespace.
