Templates

Django Magic Notifier supports templates out of the box. To add new templates to your project to be used with DMN, you have to create a folder named notifier in one of your template’s folder.

If your app name is app_name then create a directory app_name/templates/notifier

Now suppose you want to have a template named hello, then within the newly created folder created another folder like that app_name/templates/notifier/hello

Now in this folder you have to create some files depending on how you will send your notifications. If you will send your notification via email then you must create two files within the hello folder named email.html and email.txt. If you will send notifications via sms then you must create a file named sms.txt.

It is a common behavior to have a base template, you can do the same by creating a folder named base in the notifier folder and creating the files email.html, email.txt and sms.txt.

Django Magic Notifier is shipped with some base templates that you can use. Let look at this example:

app_name/templates/notifier/base/email.html:

{% extends "base_notifier/email.html" %}

app_name/templates/notifier/base/email.txt:

{% extends "base_notifier/email.txt" %}

app_name/templates/notifier/base/sms.txt:

{% extends "base_notifier/sms.txt" %}

Now in the hello template folder, you do:

app_name/templates/notifier/hello/email.html:

{% extends "notifier/base/email.html" %}
{% block content %}
<tr>
    <td><p>Hello {{ user.email }}
    </td>
</tr>
{% endblock %}

app_name/templates/notifier/hello/email.txt:

{% extends "notifier/hello/email.txt" %}
{% block content %}
>Hello {{ user.email }}
{% endblock %}

app_name/templates/notifier/hello/sms.txt:

{% extends "notifier/hello/sms.txt" %}
{% block content %}
>Hello {{ user.email }}
{% endblock %}
