Hooks
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
On loading, Wagtail will search for any app with the file ``wagtail_hooks.py`` and execute the contents. This provides a way to register your own functions to execute at certain points in Wagtail's execution, such as when a ``Page`` object is saved or when the main menu is constructed.
|
|
|
|
Registering functions with a Wagtail hook is done through the ``@hooks.register`` decorator:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.wagtailcore import hooks
|
|
|
|
@hooks.register('name_of_hook')
|
|
def my_hook_function(arg1, arg2...)
|
|
# your code here
|
|
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, ``hooks.register`` can be called as an ordinary function, passing in the name of the hook and a handler function defined elsewhere:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
hooks.register('name_of_hook', my_hook_function)
|
|
|
|
|
|
The available hooks are listed below.

Admin modules
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Hooks for building new areas of the admin interface (alongside pages, images, documents and so on).
|
|
|
|
.. _construct_homepage_panels:
|
|
|
|
``construct_homepage_panels``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Add or remove panels from the Wagtail admin homepage. The callable passed into this hook should take a ``request`` object and a list of ``panels``, objects which have a ``render()`` method returning a string. The objects also have an ``order`` property, an integer used for ordering the panels. The default panels use integers between ``100`` and ``300``.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from django.utils.safestring import mark_safe
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.wagtailcore import hooks
|
|
|
|
class WelcomePanel(object):
|
|
order = 50
|
|
|
|
def render(self):
|
|
return mark_safe("""
|
|
<section class="panel summary nice-padding">
|
|
<h3>No, but seriously -- welcome to the admin homepage.</h3>
|
|
</section>
|
|
""")
|
|
|
|
@hooks.register('construct_homepage_panels')
|
|
def add_another_welcome_panel(request, panels):
|
|
return panels.append( WelcomePanel() )
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _construct_homepage_summary_items:
|
|
|
|
``construct_homepage_summary_items``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 1.0
|
|
|
|
Add or remove items from the 'site summary' bar on the admin homepage (which shows the number of pages and other object that exist on the site). The callable passed into this hook should take a ``request`` object and a list of ``SummaryItem`` objects to be modified as required. These objects have a ``render()`` method, which returns an HTML string, and an ``order`` property, which is an integer that specifies the order in which the items will appear.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _construct_main_menu:
|
|
|
|
``construct_main_menu``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Called just before the Wagtail admin menu is output, to allow the list of menu items to be modified. The callable passed to this hook will receive a ``request`` object and a list of ``menu_items``, and should modify ``menu_items`` in-place as required. Adding menu items should generally be done through the ``register_admin_menu_item`` hook instead - items added through ``construct_main_menu`` will be missing any associated JavaScript includes, and their ``is_shown`` check will not be applied.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.wagtailcore import hooks
|
|
|
|
@hooks.register('construct_main_menu')
|
|
def hide_explorer_menu_item_from_frank(request, menu_items):
|
|
if request.user.username == 'frank':
|
|
menu_items[:] = [item for item in menu_items if item.name != 'explorer']
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _describe_collection_contents:
|
|
|
|
``describe_collection_contents``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Called when Wagtail needs to find out what objects exist in a collection, if any. Currently this happens on the confirmation before deleting a collection, to ensure that non-empty collections cannot be deleted. The callable passed to this hook will receive a ``collection`` object, and should return either ``None`` (to indicate no objects in this collection), or a dict containing the following keys:
|
|
|
|
``count``
|
|
A numeric count of items in this collection
|
|
|
|
``count_text``
|
|
A human-readable string describing the number of items in this collection, such as "3 documents". (Sites with multi-language support should return a translatable string here, most likely using the ``django.utils.translation.ungettext`` function.)
|
|
|
|
``url`` (optional)
|
|
A URL to an index page that lists the objects being described.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _register_admin_menu_item:
|
|
|
|
``register_admin_menu_item``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Add an item to the Wagtail admin menu. The callable passed to this hook must return an instance of ``wagtail.wagtailadmin.menu.MenuItem``. New items can be constructed from the ``MenuItem`` class by passing in a ``label`` which will be the text in the menu item, and the URL of the admin page you want the menu item to link to (usually by calling ``reverse()`` on the admin view you've set up). Additionally, the following keyword arguments are accepted:
|
|
|
|
:name: an internal name used to identify the menu item; defaults to the slugified form of the label.
|
|
:classnames: additional classnames applied to the link, used to give it an icon
|
|
:attrs: additional HTML attributes to apply to the link
|
|
:order: an integer which determines the item's position in the menu
|
|
|
|
``MenuItem`` can be subclassed to customise the HTML output, specify JavaScript files required by the menu item, or conditionally show or hide the item for specific requests (for example, to apply permission checks); see the source code (``wagtail/wagtailadmin/menu.py``) for details.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.wagtailcore import hooks
|
|
from wagtail.wagtailadmin.menu import MenuItem
|
|
|
|
@hooks.register('register_admin_menu_item')
|
|
def register_frank_menu_item():
|
|
return MenuItem('Frank', reverse('frank'), classnames='icon icon-folder-inverse', order=10000)
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _register_admin_urls:
|
|
|
|
``register_admin_urls``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Register additional admin page URLs. The callable fed into this hook should return a list of Django URL patterns which define the structure of the pages and endpoints of your extension to the Wagtail admin. For more about vanilla Django URLconfs and views, see `url dispatcher`_.
|
|
|
|
.. _url dispatcher: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/http/urls/
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from django.http import HttpResponse
|
|
from django.conf.urls import url
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.wagtailcore import hooks
|
|
|
|
def admin_view( request ):
|
|
return HttpResponse( \
|
|
"I have approximate knowledge of many things!", \
|
|
content_type="text/plain")
|
|
|
|
@hooks.register('register_admin_urls')
|
|
def urlconf_time():
|
|
return [
|
|
url(r'^how_did_you_almost_know_my_name/$', admin_view, name='frank' ),
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _register_group_permission_panel:
|
|
|
|
``register_group_permission_panel``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Add a new panel to the Groups form in the 'settings' area. The callable passed to this hook must return a ModelForm / ModelFormSet-like class, with a constructor that accepts a group object as its ``instance`` keyword argument, and which implements the methods ``save``, ``is_valid``, and ``as_admin_panel`` (which returns the HTML to be included on the group edit page).
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _register_settings_menu_item:
|
|
|
|
``register_settings_menu_item``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
As ``register_admin_menu_item``, but registers menu items into the 'Settings' sub-menu rather than the top-level menu.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _register_admin_search_area:
|
|
|
|
``register_admin_search_area``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Add an item to the Wagtail admin search "Other Searches". Behaviour of this hook is similar to ``register_admin_menu_item``. The callable passed to this hook must return an instance of ``wagtail.wagtailadmin.search.SearchArea``. New items can be constructed from the ``SearchArea`` class by passing the following parameters:
|
|
|
|
:label: text displayed in the "Other Searches" option box.
|
|
:name: an internal name used to identify the search option; defaults to the slugified form of the label.
|
|
:url: the URL of the target search page.
|
|
:classnames: additional CSS classnames applied to the link, used to give it an icon.
|
|
:attrs: additional HTML attributes to apply to the link.
|
|
:order: an integer which determines the item's position in the list of options.
|
|
|
|
Setting the URL can be achieved using reverse() on the target search page. The GET parameter 'q' will be appended to the given URL.
|
|
|
|
A template tag, ``search_other`` is provided by the ``wagtailadmin_tags`` template module. This tag takes a single, optional parameter, ``current``, which allows you to specify the ``name`` of the search option currently active. If the parameter is not given, the hook defaults to a reverse lookup of the page's URL for comparison against the ``url`` parameter.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``SearchArea`` can be subclassed to customise the HTML output, specify JavaScript files required by the option, or conditionally show or hide the item for specific requests (for example, to apply permission checks); see the source code (``wagtail/wagtailadmin/search.py``) for details.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse
|
|
from wagtail.wagtailcore import hooks
|
|
from wagtail.wagtailadmin.search import SearchArea
|
|
|
|
@hooks.register('register_admin_search_area')
|
|
def register_frank_search_area():
|
|
return SearchArea('Frank', reverse('frank'), classnames='icon icon-folder-inverse', order=10000)
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _register_permissions:
|
|
|
|
``register_permissions``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Return a queryset of Permission objects to be shown in the Groups administration area.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Editor interface
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
Hooks for customising the editing interface for pages and snippets.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _construct_whitelister_element_rules:
|
|
|
|
``construct_whitelister_element_rules``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Customise the rules that define which HTML elements are allowed in rich text areas. By default only a limited set of HTML elements and attributes are whitelisted - all others are stripped out. The callables passed into this hook must return a dict, which maps element names to handler functions that will perform some kind of manipulation of the element. These handler functions receive the element as a `BeautifulSoup <http://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/bs4/doc/>`_ Tag object.
|
|
|
|
The ``wagtail.wagtailcore.whitelist`` module provides a few helper functions to assist in defining these handlers: ``allow_without_attributes``, a handler which preserves the element but strips out all of its attributes, and ``attribute_rule`` which accepts a dict specifying how to handle each attribute, and returns a handler function. This dict will map attribute names to either True (indicating that the attribute should be kept), False (indicating that it should be dropped), or a callable (which takes the initial attribute value and returns either a final value for the attribute, or None to drop the attribute).
|
|
|
|
For example, the following hook function will add the ``<blockquote>`` element to the whitelist, and allow the ``target`` attribute on ``<a>`` elements:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.wagtailcore import hooks
|
|
from wagtail.wagtailcore.whitelist import attribute_rule, check_url, allow_without_attributes
|
|
|
|
@hooks.register('construct_whitelister_element_rules')
|
|
def whitelister_element_rules():
|
|
return {
|
|
'blockquote': allow_without_attributes,
|
|
'a': attribute_rule({'href': check_url, 'target': True}),
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _insert_editor_css:
|
|
|
|
``insert_editor_css``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Add additional CSS files or snippets to the page editor.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
``insert_editor_js``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|

Editor workflow
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
Hooks for customising the way users are directed through the process of creating page content.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _after_create_page:
|
|
|
|
``after_create_page``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Do something with a ``Page`` object after it has been saved to the database (as a published page or a revision). The callable passed to this hook should take a ``request`` object and a ``page`` object. The function does not have to return anything, but if an object with a ``status_code`` property is returned, Wagtail will use it as a response object. By default, Wagtail will instead redirect to the Explorer page for the new page's parent.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from django.http import HttpResponse
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.wagtailcore import hooks
|
|
|
|
@hooks.register('after_create_page')
|
|
def do_after_page_create(request, page):
|
|
return HttpResponse("Congrats on making content!", content_type="text/plain")
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _after_delete_page:
|
|
|
|
``after_delete_page``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Do something after a ``Page`` object is deleted. Uses the same behavior as ``after_create_page``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _after_edit_page:
|
|
|
|
``after_edit_page``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Do something with a ``Page`` object after it has been updated. Uses the same behavior as ``after_create_page``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _construct_wagtail_userbar:
|
|
|
|
``construct_wagtail_userbar``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
.. versionchanged:: 1.0
|
|
|
|
The hook was renamed from ``construct_wagtail_edit_bird``
|
|
|
|
Add or remove items from the wagtail userbar. Add, edit, and moderation tools are provided by default. The callable passed into the hook must take the ``request`` object and a list of menu objects, ``items``. The menu item objects must have a ``render`` method which can take a ``request`` object and return the HTML string representing the menu item. See the userbar templates and menu item classes for more information.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.wagtailcore import hooks
|
|
|
|
class UserbarPuppyLinkItem(object):
|
|
def render(self, request):
|
|
return '<li><a href="http://cuteoverload.com/tag/puppehs/" ' \
|
|
+ 'target="_parent" class="action icon icon-wagtail">Puppies!</a></li>'
|
|
|
|
@hooks.register('construct_wagtail_userbar')
|
|
def add_puppy_link_item(request, items):
|
|
return items.append( UserbarPuppyLinkItem() )
|
|
|
|
|
|
Page explorer
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
.. _construct_explorer_page_queryset:
|
|
|
|
``construct_explorer_page_queryset``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Called when rendering the page explorer view, to allow the page listing queryset to be customised. The callable passed into the hook will receive the parent page object, the current page queryset, and the request object, and must return a Page queryset (either the original one, or a new one).
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.wagtailcore import hooks
|
|
|
|
@hooks.register('construct_explorer_page_queryset')
|
|
def show_my_profile_only(parent_page, pages, request):
|
|
# If we're in the 'user-profiles' section, only show the user's own profile
|
|
if parent_page.slug == 'user-profiles':
|
|
pages = pages.filter(owner=request.user)
|
|
|
|
return pages
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _register_page_listing_buttons:
|
|
|
|
``register_page_listing_buttons``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Add buttons to the actions list for a page in the page explorer. This is useful when adding custom actions to the listing, such as translations or a complex workflow.
|
|
|
|
This example will add a simple button to the listing:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.wagtailadmin import widgets as wagtailadmin_widgets
|
|
|
|
@hooks.register('register_page_listing_buttons')
|
|
def page_listing_buttons(page, page_perms, is_parent=False):
|
|
yield wagtailadmin_widgets.PageListingButton(
|
|
'A page listing button',
|
|
'/goes/to/a/url/',
|
|
priority=10
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
The ``priority`` argument controls the order the buttons are displayed in. Buttons are ordered from low to high priority, so a button with ``priority=10`` will be displayed before a button with ``priority=20``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Buttons with dropdown lists
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
The admin widgets also provide ``ButtonWithDropdownFromHook``, which allows you to define a custom hook for generating a dropdown menu that gets attached to your button.
|
|
|
|
Creating a button with a dropdown menu involves two steps. Firstly, you add your button to the ``register_page_listing_buttons`` hook, just like the example above.
|
|
Secondly, you register a new hook that yields the contents of the dropdown menu.
|
|
|
|
This example shows how Wagtail's default admin dropdown is implemented. You can also see how to register buttons conditionally, in this case by evaluating the ``page_perms``:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
@hooks.register('register_page_listing_buttons')
|
|
def page_custom_listing_buttons(page, page_perms, is_parent=False):
|
|
yield wagtailadmin_widgets.ButtonWithDropdownFromHook(
|
|
'More actions',
|
|
hook_name='my_button_dropdown_hook',
|
|
page=page,
|
|
page_perms=page_perms,
|
|
is_parent=is_parent,
|
|
priority=50
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
@hooks.register('my_button_dropdown_hook')
|
|
def page_custom_listing_more_buttons(page, page_perms, is_parent=False):
|
|
if page_perms.can_move():
|
|
yield Button('Move', reverse('wagtailadmin_pages:move', args=[page.id]), priority=10)
|
|
if page_perms.can_delete():
|
|
yield Button('Delete', reverse('wagtailadmin_pages:delete', args=[page.id]), priority=30)
|
|
if page_perms.can_unpublish():
|
|
yield Button('Unpublish', reverse('wagtailadmin_pages:unpublish', args=[page.id]), priority=40)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The template for the dropdown button can be customised by overriding ``wagtailadmin/pages/listing/_button_with_dropdown.html``. The JavaScript that runs the dropdowns makes use of custom data attributes, so you should leave ``data-dropdown`` and ``data-dropdown-toggle`` in the markup if you customise it.

Called when Wagtail is about to serve a page. The callable passed into the hook will receive the page object, the request object, and the ``args`` and ``kwargs`` that will be passed to the page's ``serve()`` method. If the callable returns an ``HttpResponse``, that response will be returned immediately to the user, and Wagtail will not proceed to call ``serve()`` on the page.
