The project is coded using a simple and intuitive structure presented below:
< PROJECT ROOT >
|
|-- core/
| |-- settings.py # Project Configuration
| |-- urls.py # Project Routing
|
|-- home/
| |-- views.py # APP Views
| |-- urls.py # APP Routing
| |-- models.py # APP Models
| |-- tests.py # Tests
| |-- templates/ # Theme Customisation
| |-- includes #
| |-- custom-footer.py # Custom Footer
|
|-- requirements.txt # Project Dependencies
|
|-- env.sample # ENV Configuration (default values)
|-- manage.py # Start the app - Django default start script
|
|-- ************************************************************************
When a template file is loaded in the controller, Django
scans all template directories starting from the ones defined by the user, and returns the first match or an error in case the template is not found.
The theme used to style this starter provides the following files:
# This exists in ENV: LIB/admin_argon
< UI_LIBRARY_ROOT >
|
|-- templates/ # Root Templates Folder
| |
| |-- accounts/
| | |-- sign-in.html # Sign IN Page
| | |-- sign-up.html # Sign UP Page
| |
| |-- includes/
| | |-- footer.html # Footer component
| | |-- sidebar.html # Sidebar component
| | |-- navigation.html # Navigation Bar
| | |-- scripts.html # Scripts Component
| |
| |-- layouts/
| | |-- base.html # Masterpage
| | |-- base-fullscreen.html # Masterpage for Auth Pages
| |
| |-- pages/
| |-- dashboard.html # Dashboard page
| |-- profile.html # Settings Page
| |-- *.html # All other pages
|
|-- ************************************************************************
When the project requires customization, we need to copy the original file that needs an update (from the virtual environment) and place it in the template folder using the same path.
For instance, if we want to customize the footer.html these are the steps:
Step 1
: create the templates
DIRECTORY inside the home
appStep 2
: configure the project to use this new template directory
core/settings.py
TEMPLATES sectionStep 3
: copy the footer.html
from the original location (inside your ENV) and save it to the home/templates
DIR
<YOUR_ENV>/LIB/admin_argon/includes/footer.html
<PROJECT_ROOT>home/templates/includes/footer.html
To speed up all these steps, the codebase is already configured (
Steps 1, and 2
) and acustom footer
can be found at this location:
home/templates/includes/custom_footer.html
By default, this file is unused because the theme
expects footer.html
(without the custom-
prefix).
In order to use it, simply rename it to footer.html
. Like this, the default version shipped in the library is ignored by Django.
In a similar way, all other files and components can be customized easily.
The SCSS/CSS files used to style the Ui are saved in the static/assets
directory.
In order to update the Ui colors (primary, secondary) this procedure needs to be followed.
$ yarn # install modules
$ # # edit variables
$ vi static/assets/scss/argon-dashboard/custom/_variables.scss
$ gulp # SCSS to CSS translation
The _variables.scss
content defines the primary
and secondary
colors:
$primary: #5e72e4 !default; // EDIT for customization
$secondary: #8392ab !default; // EDIT for customization
$info: #11cdef !default; // EDIT for customization
$success: #2dce89 !default; // EDIT for customization
$warning: #fb6340 !default; // EDIT for customization
$danger: #f5365c !default; // EDIT for customization
