18
Set the tenant model:
19

    
20
    TENANT_MODEL = 'multitenant.Tenant'
21

    
22
Where are tenants:
23

    
24
    TENANT_BASE = '/var/lib/<project>/tenants'
25

    
26
Add the middlewares for multitenant, they must be first:
27

    
28
    MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
29
        'entrouvert.djommon.multitenant.middleware.TenantMiddleware',
30
        'entrouvert.djommon.multitenant.middleware.JSONSettingsMiddleware',
31
        'entrouvert.djommon.multitenant.middleware.PythonSettingsMiddleware',
32
    ) + MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES
33

    
34
Define the shared applications:
35

    
36
    SHARED_APPS = (
37
        'tenant_schemas',
38
        'entrouvert.djommon.multitenant',
39
        # those are needed for the public apps to work
40
        # add also any application needed by the public app
41
        'django.contrib.auth',
42
        'django.contrib.contenttypes',
43
        'django.contrib.sessions',
44
        'django.contrib.messages',
45
        'django.contrib.staticfiles',
46
    )
47

    
48
    TENANT_APPS = INSTALLED_APPS
49

    
50
    INSTALLED_APPS = ('entrouvert.djommon.multitenant',
51
        'tenant_schemas') + INSTALLED_APPS
52

    
53
    # or, with Django 1.6 or older:
54
    # INSTALLED_APPS += ('tenant_schemas', 'entrouvert.djommon.multitenant')
55

    
56
Use multitenant database engine:
57

    
58
    DATABASES = {
59
        'default': {
60
            'ENGINE': 'tenant_schemas.postgresql_backend',
61
            'NAME': '<db_name>',
62
        },
63
    }
64
    DATABASE_ROUTERS = (
65
        'tenant_schemas.routers.TenantSyncRouter',
66
    )
67

    
68
    # With Django 1.6 or older, use multitenant south adapter:
69
    # SOUTH_DATABASE_ADAPTERS = {'default': 'south.db.postgresql_psycopg2'}
70

    
71
Add the multitenant filesystem template loader and configure where the
72
multitenant templates are located:
73

    
74
    TEMPLATE_LOADERS = (
75
        'entrouvert.djommon.multitenant.template_loader.FilesystemLoader',
76
    ) + TEMPLATE_LOADERS
77
    TENANT_TEMPLATE_DIRS = (TENANT_BASE,)
78

    
79
    TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
80
        'django.core.context_processors.request',
81
    ) + TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS
82

    
83
