layers Introducing Unfold components - Pre-made HTML blocks in Django admin for custom dashboards arrow_forward

Admin dashboard

Create templates/admin/index.html in your project and paste the base template below into it. By default, all your custom styles here are not compiled because CSS classes are located in your specific project. Here it is needed to set up the Tailwind for your project and all required instructions are located in Project Level Tailwind Stylesheet chapter.

{% extends 'unfold/layouts/base_simple.html' %}

{% load cache humanize i18n %}

{% block breadcrumbs %}{% endblock %}

{% block title %}
    {% if subtitle %}
        {{ subtitle }} |
    {% endif %}

    {{ title }} | {{ site_title|default:_('Django site admin') }}
{% endblock %}

{% block branding %}
    <h1 id="site-name">
        <a href="{% url 'admin:index' %}">
            {{ site_header|default:_('Django administration') }}
        </a>
    </h1>
{% endblock %}

{% block content %}
    Start creating your own Tailwind components here
{% endblock %}

Custom variables

When you are building a new dashboard, you need to display some data mostly coming from the database. To pass these data to the dashboard template, Unfold contains a special DASHBOARD_CALLBACK parameter which allows passing a dictionary of variables to templates/admin/index.html template.

# views.py

def dashboard_callback(request, context):
    context.update({
        "custom_variable": "value",
    })

    return context
# settings.py

UNFOLD = {
    "DASHBOARD_CALLBACK": "app.views.dashboard_callback",
}
