Installation
pip install git+ssh://git@git.helu.ca:22022/r/themis.git
Quick Start
- Add to
INSTALLED_APPS:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
"rest_framework",
"themis",
...
]
- Configure middleware:
MIDDLEWARE = [
...
"themis.middleware.TimezoneMiddleware",
"themis.middleware.ThemeMiddleware",
...
]
- Configure context processors:
TEMPLATES = [{
"OPTIONS": {
"context_processors": [
...
"themis.context_processors.themis_settings",
"themis.context_processors.user_preferences",
"themis.context_processors.notifications",
"themis.context_processors.navigation",
],
},
}]
- Include URLs:
urlpatterns = [
...
path("", include("themis.urls")),
path("api/v1/", include("themis.api.urls")),
...
]
- Configure app settings:
THEMIS_APP_NAME = "My Application"
# Register navigation entries (block-based extension can't cross {% include %},
# so the chrome iterates these instead). Each entry: label, named URL, optional
# SVG icon `d` path. Bad url_names are skipped with a warning, not a 500.
THEMIS_NAV_ITEMS = [
{"label": "Home", "url_name": "core:home"},
{"label": "Mail", "url_name": "mail:account_list"},
]
THEMIS_USER_MENU_ITEMS = [
{"label": "Mail Accounts", "url_name": "mail:account_list"},
]
- Run migrations:
python manage.py migrate
- Extend the base template:
{% extends "themis/base.html" %}
{% block nav_items %}
<li><a href="{% url 'dashboard' %}">Dashboard</a></li>
{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
<h1 class="text-2xl font-bold">My App</h1>
{% endblock %}
Casdoor SSO (optional)
Themis ships generic django-allauth adapters for Casdoor OIDC. They map the
Casdoor groups claim to Django groups, set is_staff from configurable
staff groups, and block superusers from SSO (they must use local auth).
SOCIALACCOUNT_ADAPTER = "themis.adapters.CasdoorAccountAdapter"
ACCOUNT_ADAPTER = "themis.adapters.LocalAccountAdapter"
Optional settings:
THEMIS_STAFF_GROUPS— Casdoor groups grantingis_staff(default["staff", "sme", "admin"]).THEMIS_GROUP_MAPPING— Casdoor group name → Django group name.THEMIS_ORG_ADAPTER— dotted path tofn(user, org_identifier)invoked with the Casdoororganizationclaim, for apps with an Organization model. Omit it (the default) to skip organization mapping.
For sandbox environments with self-signed Casdoor certs, import the SSL bypass
at the top of settings.py before any requests are made (activates only
when CASDOOR_SSL_VERIFY=false):
import themis.ssl_patch # noqa: F401
