Re: [Openstack] register a new panel in overrides.py

2013-03-20 Thread Lyle, David (Cloud Services)
There's a couple of changes that you need to make...

First, edit the overrides.py file:  (e.g., if we wanted to add the panel to the 
admin dashboard so this uses the admin dashboard slug: 'admin')

import horizon
from path_to_module.panel import YourNewPanelClass 

admin_dashboard = horizon.get_dashboard("admin")
admin_dashboard.register(YourNewPanelClass)


Next, make sure your overrides.py file is being called in your settings.py

HORIZON_CONFIG = {
dashboards = ('project', 'admin','settings'),
...,
'customization_module': 'your_base_module.overrides'
}

Can someone give a pointer to how one goes about adding a new panel to an 
existing panel using overrides.py ?

I know my panel is working because if I hardcode it into an existing 
dashboard.py file, it is found and displayed.  I'd prefer to put it in 
overrides.py instead and am wondering how that would be coded.

thanks,
  Wyllys

But you should be registering the Panel like
settings.register(EC2ListPanel)
or settings.register(ec2list.EC2ListPanel)

not ec2list

Thats not working for me.

My module is installed in 
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/horizon/dashboards/settings as 'ec2list', it 
is in the python path so thats not the issue.

overrides.py looks like this:

import horizon
import logging

settings= horizon.get_dashboard('settings')

LOG = logging.getLogger(__name__)

import ec2list 

try:
settings.register(ec2list)
except Exception as exc:
LOG.debug("Error registering ec2list panel: %s" % exc)
-

I've also tried using ec2list.__class__, but then I get the following error:
"Error registering ec2list panel: Only Panel classes or subclasses may be 
registered."

However, my ec2list Panel is a valid panel, as is evident by the fact that when 
I put it directly into the settings/dashboard.py file list of panels, it works 
just fine.  Here is the panel.py file:

--
from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _

import horizon
from horizon.dashboards.settings import dashboard

class EC2ListPanel(horizon.Panel):
name = _("EC2 List Credentials")
slug = 'ec2list'

dashboard.Settings.register(EC2ListPanel)
