decorator for decorators with optional args

Have you ever wanted a decorator that you could apply either straight-out: @mydec def myfun(...): ... or with special arguments: @mydec(special=foo) def myfun(...): ... ? Well, decorate it with this metadecorator, and voila. (I had this idea independently, but it's been done before as decorator_withargs: http://osdir.com/ml/python.ideas/2008-01/msg00048.html. My version is actually useful because it deals with signatures and calling directly.) As http://www.siafoo.net/article/68 points out, the standard decorator module has too much magic: the "@decorator" decorator expects a wrapping function, not a working decorator. This module fixes that.

Decorate every view in a url tree

Add login_required (or any other combination of decorators) to any view references by the urls created by patterns(...). My personal little itch as an example... urlpatterns += required( login_required, patterns('', (r'^api/', include(api.urls)), ) )

Active Directory Authentication Backend (with User object updating)

I used the code from http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/901/ and expanded the code to have the possibility to map AD groups to the superuser attribute of Django's users. The code updates the Django users database every time a user connects, so every change in the AD is replicated to the Django database.

staff_or_404 Decorator

Sometimes I don't want to reveal a staff-only view so I created this decorator, using ``django.contrib.admin.views.decorators.staff_member_required`` as my boilerplate. Non staff members are kicked to the 404 curb. Suggestion: Create a file, ``decorators.py`` in your project (or single app) and import like so: ``from myproject.app_name.decorators import staff_or_404``.

Exists Filter OneToOneField in Admin

Adds Boolean like Filter in Admin to OneToOneField reference. Allowing to filter in the Parent for instances without Referenced Field. To register the filter, import in `urls.py` for example: import filterspecs Example `models.py`: from django.db import models class Place(models.Model): name = model.CharField(maxlength=50) address = model.CharField(maxlength=80) class Restaurant(meta.Model): place = model.OneToOneField(Place) place.exists_filter = True serves_hot_dogs = model.BooleanField() serves_pizza = model.BooleanField() Example `admin.py`: from django.contrib import admin from models import * class PlaceAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): list_filter = ('restaurant',) admin.site.register(Place, PlaceAdmin) With this example PlaceAdmin will have a filter: By Restaurant All Yes No Where `Yes` will list `Place` with `Restaurant` instances, and `No` will list `Place` without `Restaurant` instances.
