## Introduction
This Django application introduces a GlobalSearchView, designed to perform a global search across various models within the Django admin site.
## Features
* Global Search: Enables searching across multiple models from a single query.
* Dynamic Model Inclusion: Automatically includes models that define `global_search_fields`, allowing for flexible search configurations.
* Admin Integration: Provides direct links to the admin change page for each search result, facilitating easy editing.
## Getting Started:
### Prerequisites
* Python versions 3.8+.
* Django version 3+
### Installation Steps
Install with command `pip install django-admin-global-search`.
### Usage
To use `django-admin-global-search` in your Django project, you need to update your models and URL configurations.
1. Add `admin_global_search` to your `INSTALLED_APPS` setting before `django.contrib.admin`.
```python
INSTALLED_APPS = [
"admin_global_search",
"django.contrib.admin",
"django.contrib.auth",
"django.contrib.contenttypes",
...
]
```
2. Ensure your models have a `global_search_fields` attribute that specifies the fields to be included in the search. Example:
```python
class Artist(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
bio = models.TextField(blank=True)
global_search_fields = ("name", "bio")
def __str__(self):
return self.name
```
2. Update your project's urls.py to include the GlobalSearchView. Example:
```python
...
from admin_global_search.views import GlobalSearchView
urlpatterns = [
path("admin/", admin.site.urls),
path("search/", GlobalSearchView.as_view(), name="admin_global_search"),
...
]
```
