Documentation
See REQUIREMENTS in the setup.py
file for additional dependencies:

Installation
For a manual install:

run pip install djangocms-admin-style
add djangocms_admin_style to your INSTALLED_APPS just before 'django.contrib.admin'
run python manage.py migrate djangocms_admin_style

Configuration
The django CMS Admin Style overrides django admin’s base_site.html,
but you can still partially customize this page. Look at the source of
templates/admin/base_site.html and override the templates that are included
in various blocks. For example, you can add your own CSS in
templates/admin/inc/extrastyle.html.
The following additional settings can be set:

CMS_ENABLE_UPDATE_CHECK = True
Set to False to disable the update notification.
CMS_UPDATE_CHECK_TYPE = ('minor')
Set to ('patch') to get only patch notifications.
(minor = 3.x.x, patch = 3.4.x)

The update checker does not gather or record any data.
To compile CSS run the following commands using node 16:

nvm use
npm install
npx gulp icons sass bundle

For further options have a look at the gulpfile.js.

Dark mode support

introduces css variables that contain color codes and change with the selected
mode:

Extending styles in your own app
If your project or app requires specific styles if djangocms-admin-style is
installed (e.g., to better adjust to the django CMS style) you can add selective
styling by adding the .djangocms-admin-style selector:
// Show widget in CMS colors if djangocms-admin-style is installed
.djangocms-admin-style #my-widget {
color: var(--dca-primary, black);
}
We recommend to following rules for your app’s admin css:

Try avoid using color, background etc. styles where possible and meaningful
If necessary use as few as possible standard django CMS colors (preferably
from see above list with fallback colors)
Usage: var(--dca-color-var, var(--fallback-color-var, #xxxxxx)) where
#xxxxxx represents the light version of the color.

Running Tests
You can run tests by executing:
virtualenv env
source env/bin/activate
pip install -r tests/requirements/base.txt
python setup.py test
In order to run integration tests you need to have Docker installed,
then run the following command:
make test
To test other Django versions simply append VERSION=4.1`. You can also
run the test server through:
make run
The integration tests are written using Casperjs, phantomcss and
djangocms-casper-helpers.
