00:00:05,390 --> 00:00:09,890
Welcome back, everyone, to this section of the course, which is going to discuss the Django admin

2
00:00:09,890 --> 00:00:10,730
capabilities.

3
00:00:11,930 --> 00:00:17,420
One of the most powerful features of Django is its ability to automatically create an administration

4
00:00:17,420 --> 00:00:20,570
interface without you having to do any additional work.

5
00:00:20,990 --> 00:00:25,730
This is a feature that's really meant to be used by the website manager to have a graphical interface

6
00:00:25,730 --> 00:00:28,010
for interacting with data and users on the site.

7
00:00:29,580 --> 00:00:35,450
Now, we've already seen that Django comes of pre-built admin paths in our site, URLs that profile.

8
00:00:35,820 --> 00:00:38,550
If you go to the project level, you're not profile.

9
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:45,120
You probably already notice that forward slash admin URL path, as well as indications of an already

10
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:46,980
existing Django admin app.

11
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:52,680
If you went to the configurations where in settings about PI, you could add more installed apps.

12
00:00:52,890 --> 00:00:57,120
You probably noticed that Django that contrib the admin was already there for us.

13
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:02,520
In this section, we're going to be exploring how to access that admin panel view, as well as how to

14
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,500
configure administration settings.

15
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:10,690
Again, keep in mind that the admin panel is really meant for a manager of the website.

16
00:01:10,930 --> 00:01:15,580
We're not going to be expecting normal users to access jingo administration interface.

17
00:01:15,820 --> 00:01:17,020
So I just want to keep that in mind.

18
00:01:17,170 --> 00:01:20,440
It's really not meant for a normal user of the website.

19
00:01:20,650 --> 00:01:26,620
It's meant for just checking out databases from the backend with a graphical user interface or having

20
00:01:26,620 --> 00:01:30,190
to update information or update user login information.

21
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:36,530
So a quick overview of what we're going to be learning here is will have a review of web sites with

22
00:01:36,530 --> 00:01:37,040
models.

23
00:01:37,310 --> 00:01:41,690
That is, we're going to start from scratch and just quickly review how do we create a website again?

24
00:01:41,870 --> 00:01:46,400
How to create app, how to create a model and connect it to a view and list that on the site.

25
00:01:46,940 --> 00:01:51,230
Then we're going to talk about accessing the Django administration panel and then we'll show you how

26
00:01:51,230 --> 00:01:53,300
to connect models to the admin.

27
00:01:53,930 --> 00:01:55,310
OK, let's get started.

28
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:56,540
I'll see you at the next lecture.
