Greetings!
I had been playing around with Django for a while and eventually a
question arised: is there any way to easily (by "easily" I mean, without
sub-classing AdminSite) create a custom page for Django's admin site?
Let me clarify my question by an example.
Suppose you have an app that shows you the current server metrics (like
the CPU load, free disk space, RAM usage, etc.) and maybe even lets you
view those metrics in a historical perspective (a a graph). And of
course, we want this app to be accessible through Django's admin interface.
This imaginary application's objective is not to manipulate model
instances in a database, it's monitoring the server's state and
representing the results as a graph - and here we have a problem,
because as far as I know, a standard use case of Django's admin is to
create a nice interface for manipulating entities in a database.
Now I know that this example might seem a little awkward (because there
are many sophisticated tools out there that perform the described job),
but the question is, if I wanted to write something like that, would it
be possible to integrate it with Django's admin interface without much
fuss? I'd appreciate very much if anyone answered this question :)
Thanks!
