Integrating with Django Categories

Install django-categories

1. Install django-categories

   $ pip install django-categories
   

2. Add categories to your INSTALLED_APPS setting.

   INSTALLED_APPS = (
       ...
       'categories',
       ...
   )
   

3. Supply the fields you want to be added to the Story model.

   CATEGORIES_SETTINGS = {
       ...
       'FK_REGISTRY': {
           'stories.story': {
           'name': 'primary_category', 'related_name': 'primary_category'
           }
       },
       'M2M_REGISTRY': {
           'stories.story': {
           'name': 'categories', 'related_name': 'categories'
           }
       }
       ...
   }
   

   In this case, 2 fields are setup, one ForeignKey field called primary_category and one ManyToMany field called categories
