Phileo consists of template tags that you place within your project to get different “liking” functionality.
This template tag is an inclusion tag that will emit a form that renders a button that enables toggling the “like” or “unlike”. The button will have the text that you pass in as well as a class by the same name, but all lower case. This should enable you to control the look of the button through css.
The format for this template tag is:
{% like_form user object "Like,Unlike" %}
The string of the toggled states that you pass in should follow some rules:
It renders “phileo/_form.html” and can be overriden as desired.
This is a simple inclusion template tag that will render the a bit of javascript for doing the form post and changing the form state via ajax. If you do not include this, then the button on the form from like_form will still work, but will just be a form post back returning you to the same page:
{% likes_ajax %}
It renders “phileo/_ajax.js” and can be overriden as desired.
The “liked” template tag will decorate a iterable of objects given a particular user, with a “liked” boolean indicating whether or not the user likes each object in the iterable:
{% liked objects by request.user as varname %}
{% for obj in varname %
<div>{% if obj.liked %}* {% endif %}{{ obj.title }}</div>
{% endfor %}
The “likes” tag will fetch into a context variable a list of objects that the given user likes:
{% likes request.user "app.Model" as objs %}
{% for obj in objs %}
<div>{{ obj }}</div>
{% endfor %}
