Admin interface overview

class media_tree.admin.filenode_admin.FileNodeAdmin(*args, **kwargs)

The FileNodeAdmin aims to let you manage your media files on the web like you are used to on your desktop computer.

Mimicking the file explorer of an operating system, you can browse your virtual folder structure, copy and move items, upload more media files, and perform many other tasks.

The FileNodeAdmin can be used in your own Django projects, serving as a file selection dialog when linking FileNode objects to your own models.

You can also extend the admin interface in many different fashions to suit your custom requirements. Please refer to Extending Django Media Tree for more information about extending Media Tree.

• The AJAX-enhanced interface allows you to browse your folder tree without page reloads.
• The file listing supports drag & drop. Drag files and folders to another folder to move them. Hold the Alt key to copy them.
• You can set up an upload queue, which enables you to upload large files and monitor the process via the corresponding progress bars.
• Drag the slider above the file listing to dynamically resize thumbnails.
• You can select files and execute various special actions on them, for instance download the selection as a ZIP archive.
