How do I register my dashboard class ? about django-dashboards

[jdwpeterson]

Hi Mike,

Thanks for getting in touch. Basically all you need to do to register your dashboard is add

registry.register(DashboardClassName)

to to bottom of your dashboards.py file. Where DashboardClassName is the Dashboard you have created.

You need to do this for every dashboard you create. So if you had 2 dashboards, DashboardOne and DashboardTwo, set up you would add:

registry.register(DashboardOne)
registry.register(DashboardTwo)

Your final dashboards.py file should then look something like:

from dashboards.dashboard import Dashboard
from dashboards.component import Text, Chart
from dashboards.registry import registry

from demo.mydashboard.data import DashboardData


class FirstDashboard(Dashboard):
    welcome = Text(value="Welcome to Django Dashboards!")
    animals = Chart(defer=DashboardData.fetch_animals)

    class Meta:
        name = "First Dashboard"


registry.register(FirstDashboard)

I hope this helps but if not, or you have any further questions please get back in touch.

Hi John I’m having issues trying to start the app , i.e. after setup when I run python manage.py runserver. Have checked and did have registry code in my dashboard.py file. I’ve attached the “ run log” with errors and a summary of steps the setup etc. below Any help would be great, thanks in advance , Mike _____ 1. I’ve done a full clean install in a new folder (new venv, new Django, new Django-dashboard) am getting the error : "message": "Import \"dashboards.dashboard\" could not be resolved" for the 3 imports (.dashboard . component . registry) 2. For info – when I did the pip install of djnago-dashboard I got an error “ wxpython 4.2.1 requires pillow, which is not installed.” I used pip to install pillow and then ran pip install of Django-dashboard again just in case some additional dependencies were installed after Pillow was in place. None were. 3. Folder structure - Windows demo .env etc Include Lib site-packages : Scripts Share pyenv.cfg demo demo mydashboard from dashboards.dashboard import dashboard from dashboards.component import Text, Chart from dashboards.registry import registry from demo.mydashboard.data import DashboardData class FirstDashboard(dashboard): welcome = Text(value="Welcome to Django Dashboards!") animals = Chart(defer=DashboardData.fetch_animals) class Meta: name = "First Dashboard" registry.register(FirstDashboard) From: New Agenorltd ***@***.***> Sent: Tuesday, August 1, 2023 10:41 AM To: wildfish/django-dashboards ***@***.***> Subject: Re: [wildfish/django-dashboards] How do I register my dashboard class ?

Hi Mike,

It's hard to tell but looks like maybe your virtual env isn't active or using a different one when running the code.

If you run pip freeze do you see django-dashboards listed?

How are you running the code? Is it command line or via a code editor like VS Code?

You also sent your folder structure but the formatting seems to have messed up. Could you send it again and also show where the manage.py, settings.py and urls.py files live.
