risent / django-datefilterspec

Adds filtering by ranges of dates in the admin filter sidebar.

django-daterange-filter

Add the option to filter by a custom date range on the admin. This allows to inputs to be used to get the custom date range filters.

See datefilter.png of a screenshot of how this is seen on the admin.

IMPORTANT: this will work with Django 1.4. I won't work with previous Django versions.

Installation

Use pip/easy_install

pip install django-daterange-filter

Add daterange_filter to settings.INSTALLED_APP. For this, edit the setup.py file:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'daterange_filter'
)

After this, if you have a model like this one:

class MyModel(models.Model):
    ...
    foo = models.CharField(max_length=1, choices=BAR_CHOICES)
    created_at = models.DateField()

To allow to filter the created_at field using the date ranges, you must edit the admin.ModelAdmin referenced to that class:

from daterange_filter.filter import DateRangeFilter
from django.contrib import admin
from models import MyModel

class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    list_filter = (
        'foo',
        ('created', DateRangeFilter), # this is a tuple
        ...
    )

DateRangeFilter honours localization and supports local date formats for filtering.
