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

Project description

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

Getting Started

To get started using django-filer simply install it with pip:

$ pip install django-filer

Add "filer" to your project’s INSTALLED_APPS setting and 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',
)
