Do you want to see a Django Fiber screencast, to get a feel for what it can do for you? Check it out here: http://vimeo.com/ridethepony/django-fiber
Or, if you want to quickly try out Django Fiber on your machine, install the Django Fiber example project: https://github.com/ridethepony/django-fiber-example
Convinced? Want to use Django Fiber in your own Django project? Then follow the instructions below:
We're assuming you are using Django 1.3 or 1.4. If you need to install Django Fiber with an older Django version, you can find instructions in the docs folder.
$ pip install django-fiber
These dependencies are automatically installed:
PIL>=1.1.7 djangorestframework==0.3.3 django-mptt==0.5.1 django-compressor>=0.7.1
import django.conf.global_settings as DEFAULT_SETTINGS MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = DEFAULT_SETTINGS.MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES + ( 'fiber.middleware.ObfuscateEmailAddressMiddleware', 'fiber.middleware.AdminPageMiddleware', ) TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = DEFAULT_SETTINGS.TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS + ( 'django.core.context_processors.request', 'fiber.context_processors.page_info', ) INSTALLED_APPS = ( ...

from django.conf import settings urlpatterns = patterns('', ... (r'^api/v2/', include('fiber.rest_api.urls')), (r'^admin/fiber/', include('fiber.admin_urls')), (r'^jsi18n/$', 'django.views.i18n.javascript_catalog', {'packages': ('fiber',),}), ... (r'', 'fiber.views.page'), )
Create database tables:
$ python manage.py syncdb
All static Fiber files need to be symlinked in (or copied to) your media folder:
$ python manage.py collectstatic --link
You can find usage instructions, and other documentation, in the docs folder.
