A reusable Django application that adds simple admin-panel comments to any model, allowing Django Administrators to communicate on certain objects more easily.

• Install Django Admin Comments:

  $ pip install django-admin-comments
  

• Add it to your INSTALLED_APPS:

  INSTALLED_APPS = (
      ...
      'admin_comments',
      ...
  )

• Run database migrations

  $ manage.py migrate

• Now, simply add the CommentInline to any ModelAdmin

  from admin_comments.admin import CommentInline
  
  class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
      model = MyModel
      inlines = [CommentInline,]

• ADMIN_COMMENTS_SHOW_EMPTY: Should the comment forms display an empty form field by default? (Default: False)

  Example:

  ADMIN_COMMENTS_SHOW_EMPTY = True

• ADMIN_COMMENTS_FORM_CLASS: Override the default class used for the comment form. (Default: "admin_comments.forms.CommentInlineForm")

  Example:

  ADMIN_COMMENTS_FORM_CLASS = "myapp.forms.MyCustomCommentForm"

• ADMIN_COMMENTS_FORMSET_CLASS: Override the default class used for the comment formset. (Default: "admin_comments.forms.CommentInlineFormset")

  Example:

  ADMIN_COMMENTS_FORMSET_CLASS = "myapp.forms.MyCustomCommentFormSet"

• Generic comment model to add comments to any object
• Simple configuration without the overhead of the Django Comments Framework
• Overridable Form and Formset classes
