Getting Started

Installation

First, install the django-elevate library with pip.

$ pip install django-elevate

Next, we need to add the elevate application to our INSTALLED_APPS. Installing the application will automatically register the user_logged_in and user_logged_out signals that are needed.

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    # ...
    'elevate',
)

Now we need to add Elevate’s middleware to the MIDDLEWARE setting:

MIDDLEWARE = (
    # ...
    'elevate.middleware.ElevateMiddleware',
)

Note

elevate.middleware.ElevateMiddleware must be installed after django.contrib.session.middleware.SessionMiddleware.

Proceed to the Configuration documentation.
