Installation 
============

Depedencies  
~~~~~~~~~~~

django-simple-feedback requires jQuery, and it includes it in its static files.

Installing django-simple-feedback

Install into your python path using pip or github version::

pip install django-simple-feedback
pip install -e git://github.com/Narsil/django-simple-feedback

Add 'feedback' to your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py, also make sure 'django.core.context_processors.request' is in your TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS::

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'feedback',
)
....
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
    'django.core.context_processors.request'
)

Add css and javascript in your 'base.html' template (jQuery is optional if you already include it in your project)::

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Narsil/django-simple-feedback/master/{{ STATIC_URL }}feedback/css/feedback.css" />

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Narsil/django-simple-feedback/master/{{ STATIC_URL }}feedback/js/jquery-1.4.2.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Narsil/django-simple-feedback/master/{{ STATIC_URL }}feedback/js/feedback.js"></script>

And then in templates where you want feedback to appear::

{% load feedback_tags %}
....

{% feedback %}

Add '(r'^feedback', include('feedback.urls')' to your urls::

urlpatterns = patterns( '',
    ....
    (r'^feedback', include('feedback.urls'),
)

Don't forget to run ::

./manage.py syncdb

to create the table that is going to receive the feedbacks.

Receiving mail of feedbacks

If you wish to receive mail when someone posts some feedback then you need to
configure these which are the defaults::

    FEEDBACK_SEND_MAIL = True
    FEEDBACK_FROM = 'feedback@example.com'
    FEEDBACK_REPLY_TO_USER = True
    FEEDBACK_TO = map(lambda x:x[1], settings.MANAGERS) (should be managers emails)
    FEEDBACK_SUBJECT = '[feedback] %(path)s'
    FEEDBACK_BODY = '%(feedback)s'

In `FEEDBACK_SUBJECT` and `FEEDBACK_BODY` you are able to customize the text.
each string is formatted with a dict containing information on the feedback.
Dict is::

    {'id': 42,
     'feedback': 'This is a random comment made by random person',
     'path': 'url the feedback was made on',
     'user': User object,
     'request': request object,  # You can access IP and USER_AGENT via request.
     ...} # You can access any data sent by your form here so you can customize at will
     # By just sending additional field in the form.

Other settings are::

    FEEDBACK_ASK_EMAIL = False

Asks user to write his email when it is missing from his account.
