Resources is a thin CMS app for Django.

Its main thing is a Resource class that inherits from MPTTModel and is thus placed within a tree. It contains the main meta information that make a resource like title, slug, creation dates and so on.

The next important class is Page. This is also a Resource and has additional fields like text and meta summary. Every page can have a different template, which is defined as string but can also be made as a ChoiceField by using the RESOURCES_TEMPLATES setting, that defines a list of (template_path, template_name) tuples.

To use resources in your project, add it to INSTALLED_APPS and add the URL

(r'^', include('resources.urls')),

This catches all URLs, parses them for slugs and tries to find the appropriate page in the tree. The page is then rendered using the specific template.

Resources is a quick and simple way to have a tree of resources with configurable templates, and have these rendered in the templates easily. If you have a use case like that, you don't need to write models, views and admin classes. Just use resources.
