Django 1.4 Base Template

About

This template is based off of the work of Mozilla Playdoh, as well as experience with other Django layouts/templates. Playdoh is mainly setup for Mozilla's systems, and is currently only designed for Django 1.3. Some of the libraries bundled with Playdoh are also no longer necessary in Django 1.4.

This template is designed for Django 1.4's new startproject template option.

As much as I could, all the code has been updated to use the new suggested layout and functionality in Django 1.4.

Features

By default, this template includes:

A set of basic templates built from HTML5Boilerplate 3.0.3 and Twitter Bootstrap 2.0 (located in the base app)

Templating:

• Jinja2 for templates
• jingo to tie Jinja2 into Django
• Markdown

Security:

• django-session-csrf
• bleach
• python-bcrypt2 - uses bcrypt for password hashing by default

Background Tasks:

• Celery

Migrations:

• South

Caching:

• python-memcached

From Mozilla Playdoh:

• commonware
• nuggets

Admin:

• Includes django-admin-toolbar for development and production (enabled for superusers)
• Includes two debug-toolbar panels that are useful, but are disabled until they support Django 1.4
• django-debug-toolbar-user-panel
• memcache-debug-panel

Testing:

• nose and django-nose
• pylint, pep8, and coverage

Any of these options can added, modified, or removed as you like after creating your project.
