django-filer

A file management application for django that makes handling of files and images a breeze.

Dependencies

django-cms >= 2.1 easy-thumbnails >= 1.0-alpha-13

Installation

add the django-filer to INSTALLED_APPS:

  INSTALLED_APPS = (
      ...
      'filer',
      ...
  )

and then run syncdb or migrate if you're using South.

For automatic subject location aware cropping of images replace easy_thumbnails.processors.scale_and_crop with filer.thumbnail_processors.scale_and_crop_with_subject_location in the THUMBNAIL_PROCESSORS setting:

  THUMBNAIL_PROCESSORS = (
      'easy_thumbnails.processors.colorspace',
      'easy_thumbnails.processors.autocrop',
      #'easy_thumbnails.processors.scale_and_crop',
      'filer.thumbnail_processors.scale_and_crop_with_subject_location',
      'easy_thumbnails.processors.filters',
  )
