Provides a number of useful utilities for Django projects, particularly within the context of DDH projects.
ddh_utils.utils provides the create_pagination function to
generate Paginator and Page objects from the supplied parameters,
handling any problems with the supplied page number. This just avoids
repeating the example view code from the Django documentation.
The ddh_utils_tags template tag library provides the
display_pagination inclusion tag, which outputs the navigation for
a set of results, based on the supplied page:
{% load ddh_utils_tags %}
{% display_pagination querydict page %}
This includes the template includes/pagination.html.
ddh_utils.views provides SearchView and FacetedSearchView
classes that have better pagination than those in Haystack's own views
(making use of the create_pagination function), and also add the
request's GET parameters to the context (under the variable name
querydict) for use in pagination and facetting.
ddh_util_tags provides simple tags for creating URLs by adding and
removing facets:
{% load ddh_utils_tags %}
<a href="{% add_facet_link querydict name value %}">Add</a>
<a href="{% remove_facet_link querydict "name:value" %}">Remove</a>
