Hi, Django is cool :-) Im currently looking at it to possibly use it in several high-profile initiatives. So far so good.
One thing I came across is a question of whether I can easily customize subsections of admin. Now the tutorials explain it nicely about admin_base, but Id need to be more granular - lets say I have an app for managing some assets, and one view of that app is downloading full statistics in CSV format. Now I have created a view to output the CSV, but Id like to link to it from the appropriate place in the admin. Lets say in the view where I see all the objects of the app. I took a look at admin.views.main and in change_list, I can see a lot of hardcore fiddling with raw_template going on to produce the output. Id avoid messing with that at all costs - rather, Id like to have parts of the admin UI more templated so that I could customize the object list view through the template and add my link at an appropriate location. Does that sound reasonable? Or is there any other easy way for me to accomplish this (insert custom link at an appropriate location in the admin), other than messing with change_list code? -- rgds, Jaanus
