Installation

Installing Stoat is just like installing any other Django app.

First, install the library (preferably into a virtualenv):

pip install -e hg+https://bitbucket.org/sjl/stoat@v0.1.1#egg=stoat

Add stoat to your INSTALLED_APPS setting:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'stoat',
    ...
)

Finally, add the following line at the end of your MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES setting:

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
    ...
    'stoat.middleware.StoatMiddleware',
)

If you’ve customized your admin dashboard with Grappelli’s dashboard tools, you’ll need to add Stoat to the dashboard to be able to add pages and such:

self.children.append(modules.ModelList(
    'Stoat',
    ('stoat.*',),
    column=1,
    css_classes=['collapse', 'open'],
))

Now that you’ve got Stoat installed you’ll want to take a look at Usage to learn how to use Stoat.
