djangocmsrestview 0.1.9

djangocms-rest-view

An application to load django CMS pages in a client application.
djangocms-rest-view uses Django REST framework to serve django CMS pages through a REST API
Editing must still be done the “traditional” way

Installation

pip install djangocms-rest-view
Edit INSTALLED_APPS:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'rest_framework',
'djangocms_rest_view',
...
]

Edit urls.py:
urlpatterns = [
...
url(r'^api/', include('djangocms_rest_view.urls')),
...
]

That’s all!

The REST view of the pages will be available at http://example.com/api/

Sample client
A sample Angular JS client is provided within the project.
To start exploring djangocms-rest view, you can install it and browse the website:

Edit INSTALLED_APPS:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'djangocms_rest_view.client',
...
]

Edit urls.py:
urlpatterns = [
...
url(r'^rest/', include('djangocms_rest_view.client.urls')),
...
]

the Angular client will be available at http://example.com/rest/

Install dependencies according to the application bower.json: https://gitix.iast.it/opensource/djangocms-rest-view/blob/master/bower.json

example:

Copy dependencies in project bower.json
run bower:
bower install

Customize
The sample client uses a dedicated base page to load all the default styles etc needed to render
your content.
Template is in rest/base.html copy it from djangocms_rest_view/client/templates/rest/base.html
and edit it according your needs.

Templates
Each django CMS has a defined template to render.
You can customize the template the AngularJS client will use to render the page:

create a partial directory in the static directory
create html files for each page template
define the content of the rest-page template to render the placeholders and page title:
<article class="body">
<h2 ng-bind="content_page.title"></h2>
<p ng-bind-html="content_page.placeholders.content | safe"></p>
</article>
content_page is the page serialization in the angular scope and contains the full serialization
as visible at http://example.com/api/pages/<page-id>; thus content_page.placeholders.content
contains the rendered HTML for the content placeholder.
