Description: djcroco
        =======
        
        djcroco extends your `Django <https://www.djangoproject.com/>`_ model to add support for the `Crocodoc API <https://crocodoc.com/>`_.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        To install ``djcroco``, simply: ::
        
            pip install djcroco
        
        Add to your ``INSTALLED_APPS``: ::
        
            ...
            'djcroco',
            ...
        
        Include urls in your ``urls.py``: ::
        
            url(r'', include('djcroco.urls')),
        
        Define Crocodoc API token and the model you want to extend, in your ``settings.py``: ::
        
            CROCO_MODEL = 'app_name.model_name'
            CROCO_API_TOKEN = '<api_token>'
        
        Usage
        -----
        
        Define the model you wish to extend: ::
        
            from django.db import models
        
            from djcroco.models import CrocoModel
        
        
            class Example(CrocoModel):
                name = models.CharField(max_length=255)
                file = models.FileField(upload_to='examples/')
                thumbnail = models.ImageField(upload_to='examples/thumbnails/', blank=True,
                    null=True, editable=False)
        
                def __unicode__(self):
                    return self.name
        
        **Note the below:**
        
        * ``CrocoModel`` is an abstract model. More info about `abstract models <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/db/models/#abstract-base-classes>`_.
        
        * Your model must contain the above fields of ``file`` and ``thumbnail``, and exactly the same field instances as in the example.
        
        **How it works:**
        
        * Every time you save your model, the ``djcroco`` uploads document to Crocodoc to start conversion process. Only supported documents are uploaded. `List of supported documents <http://support.crocodoc.com/customer/portal/articles/515434-what-file-formats-are-supported->`_.
        
        * When the template renders, the ``get_thumbnail`` method creates a thumbnail to display in your app.
        
        * The ``get_absolute_view_url`` creates a viewing session on Crocodoc so you can embed the document in your app. It returns only an URL so it is up to you how you use it.
        
        
        Render the awesomeness in your template: ::
        
            <ul>
            {% for obj in object_list %}
                <li>Name: {{ obj.name }}</li>
                <li>Size: {{ obj.human_file_size }}</li>
                <li>Extension: {{ obj.file_ext }}</li>
                <li><img src="{{ obj.get_thumbnail }}"></li>
        
                {% if obj.is_viewable %}
                <li><a href="{{ obj.get_absolute_view_url }}">View</a></li>
                {% endif %}
        
                {% if obj.is_downloadable %}
                <li><a href="{{ obj.get_absolute_download_url }}">Download</a></li>
                {% endif %}
            {% endfor %} 
            </ul>
        
        
        
        Dependencies
        ------------
        
        ``djcroco`` depends only on `crocodoc-python <https://github.com/crocodoc/crocodoc-python>`_ in order to communicate with Crocodoc API service.
        
        Limitations
        -----------
        
        ``djcroco`` was tested on Django 1.4/Python 2.7.3. Other versions of Django/Python will be supported soon.
