But you should be registering the Panel like settings.register(EC2ListPanel) or settings.register(ec2list.EC2ListPanel)

My module is installed in /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/horizon/dashboards/settings as 'ec2list', it is in the python path so thats not the issue. overrides.py looks like this: ------------ import horizon import logging settings= horizon.get_dashboard('settings') LOG = logging.getLogger(__name__) import ec2list try: settings.register(ec2list) except Exception as exc: LOG.debug("Error registering ec2list panel: %s" % exc) ------------- I've also tried using ec2list.__class__, but then I get the following error: "Error registering ec2list panel: Only Panel classes or subclasses may be registered." However, my ec2list Panel is a valid panel, as is evident by the fact that when I put it directly into the settings/dashboard.py file list of panels, it works just fine. Here is the panel.py file: ------ from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _ import horizon from horizon.dashboards.settings import dashboard class EC2ListPanel(horizon.Panel): name = _("EC2 List Credentials") slug = 'ec2list' dashboard.Settings.register(EC2ListPanel) --------- On Mar 20, 2013, at 12:34 PM, "Lyle, David (Cloud Services)" <[email protected]> wrote: > There's a couple of changes that you need to make... > > First, edit the overrides.py file: (e.g., if we wanted to add the panel to > the admin dashboard so this uses the admin dashboard slug: 'admin') > > import horizon > from path_to_module.panel import YourNewPanelClass > > admin_dashboard = horizon.get_dashboard("admin") > admin_dashboard.register(YourNewPanelClass) > > > Next, make sure your overrides.py file is being called in your settings.py > > HORIZON_CONFIG = { > dashboards = ('project', 'admin','settings'), > ..., > 'customization_module': 'your_base_module.overrides' > } > > -Dave > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of > Wyllys Ingersoll > Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2013 9:50 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [Openstack] register a new panel in overrides.py > > > Can someone give a pointer to how one goes about adding a new panel to an > existing panel using overrides.py ? > > I know my panel is working because if I hardcode it into an existing > dashboard.py file, it is found and displayed.
