Getting Started

To get started using django-filer simply install it with pip:

$ pip install django-filer

Dependencies

• django-mptt >= 0.2.1’
• easy-thumbnails >= 1.0-alpha-13

Configuration

Add "filer" to your project’s INSTALLED_APPS setting and run syncdb (or migrate if you’re using South).

For automatic subject location aware cropping of images replace easy_thumbnails.processors.scale_and_crop with filer.thumbnail_processors.scale_and_crop_with_subject_location in the THUMBNAIL_PROCESSORS setting:

THUMBNAIL_PROCESSORS = (
    'easy_thumbnails.processors.colorspace',
    'easy_thumbnails.processors.autocrop',
    #'easy_thumbnails.processors.scale_and_crop',
    'filer.thumbnail_processors.scale_and_crop_with_subject_location',
    'easy_thumbnails.processors.filters',
)
