Django Autoadmin is Django application that lets you have a quick administration over your Django models. You can even use it to fake Django Auth when your're unable to create auth tables in your legacy database. You can also use AutoDatabrowser.

1. Add autoadmin directory to your Python path.

2. Add autoadmin to INSTALLED_APPS in your settings.py file.

3. Add your application(s) to AUTOADMIN_APPS list in settings.py. For example:

   AUTOADMIN_APPS = (
       'app1',
       'app2',
   )
   

To use AutoDatabrowser add your application(s) to AUTOADMIN_BROWSER_APPS. For example:

AUTOADMIN_BROWSER_APPS = (
    'app1',
)

To use FakeAuth set AUTOADMIN_FAKEAUTH to True. This will fake authentication backend to Django so you can login to your admin.

If you want to protect your admin, you can use AUTOADMIN_FAKEAUTH_USERNAME and AUTOADMIN_FAKEAUTH_PASSWORD.

If you are already using ContentType app, you can disable fake ContentType by setting AUTOADMIN_FAKECONTENTTYPE to False

To customize your admin you can generate admin.py file for your application.

python manage.py gen_modeladmins your_app

python manage.py gen_modeladmins your_app > your_app/admin.py
