Disabling Django Admin, and creating my own three custom admin dashboards

[Wim Olivier]

Hi everyone,

I would like to disable the Django Admin, and create my own custom admin dashboards.

There must be three different types of admin dashboards:

- one for Customers (normal users) where they can do CRUD on their profile and services (URI: /customer/dashboard)

- one for Partners where they can do CRUD on their users/customers, and their Customers' profile and services (URI: /partner/dashboard)

- one for Super Users where they can do CRUD on Customers, Partners, and everything else (URI: /administration)

I understand very well the ways to extend the User model - that part I'm OK with.

Just some practical pointers with a small example, or links to Django-based repos that implement something like this, please.

I just need some guidance.

Many thanks!

If you dont want django admin just remove it from installed apps , middleware and urls..

But i dont advice you to do this , you can make you own dashboards and keep django default admin panel ..

You need a 3 signup pages and 3 login pages , each signup page will create a different user and each login page will login each user type to his dashboard type ..

 I advice you to make a 3 seperate apps to organize the code ..

Thanks Motaz,

That gives me a little bit of direction.

I'm thinking now of controlling access to each app's URL's via a single piece of middleware (instead of at each View - just have to figure out how to do that.

Regards,

Wim

I dont know what is your authentication based on , but i faced such a scenario ..

One of the solutions is to make a middleware that checks the user type with the url prefix

So usertype1 all related routes will be under /usertype1/

usertype2 all related routes will be under /usertype2/

Middleware will check user_type fron sessions or jwt ( depends on your auth system ) and compare it with the requested url , if they are identical then permission guaranteed , else redirect somewhere

Great, thanks man!

I will try that.

Using local auth and PostgreSQL - no cloud services.
