Technical requirements

Below is the list of currently supported combinations of Django and Python:

# Django Python
1 1.8 2.7, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5
2 1.9, 1.10 2.7, 3.4, 3.5

Installation

  1. First install the package using pip:

    pip install django-bootstrap-ui
  2. Add bootstrap_ui to your INSTALLED_APPS setting:

    INSTALLED_APPS = (
        ...
        'bootstrap_ui',
        ...
    )

Usage

Bootstrap template

Prepare your page for Bootstrap and provide your content:

  1. Extend bootstrap-skeleton.html in your base template:

    {% extends "bootstrap_ui/bootstrap-skeleton.html" %}
  2. Fill predefined blocks with your content:

    {% block body-content %}
        <h1>Hello, I'm using django-bootstrap-ui!</h1>
    {% endblock %}

Themes

You can style your page with Bootstrap or Bootswatch themes. Set DJANGO_BOOTSTRAP_UI_THEME to a valid identifier in your settings.py for a project-wide default theme:

# django-bootstrap-ui settings
DJANGO_BOOTSTRAP_UI_THEME = 'bootswatch-paper'

Bootstrap component templates

Render complete Bootstrap components by including our default implementations. Example:

  1. Provide a list of strings ['alpha', 'beta', 'gamma'] as template variable items

  2. Include listgroup.html parameterized with type='list' and items=items:

    {% include 'bootstrap_ui/listgroup.html' with type='list' items=items only %}

Template tag API

Generate your own, customized Bootstrap elements using our template tags. Example:

  1. Load bootstrap_ui_tags in your template:

    {% load bootstrap_ui_tags %}
  2. Use Bootstrap components through intuitive template tags:

    {% listgroup %}
        {% listgroupitem %}
            Your raw text.
        {% endlistgroupitem %}
        {% listgroupitem %}
            You may also use a {{ context_variable }}.
        {% endlistgroupitem %}
    {% endlistgroup %}
  3. Some Bootstrap components support different html tags, to change the default add a parameter:

    {% listgroup use_tag="div" %}
        ...
        Your list group content goes here.
        ...
    {% endlistgroup %}
