django-sitesutils

django-sitesutils is a Django app that allows you to access current site, using request.site everywhere you can access request object.

Current site is detected using host domain from request object and SITE_ID project setting as a fallback. If site is found, then request.site is set to the respective Site model object from django.contrib.site app, otherwise request.site is a django.contrib.sites.models.RequestSite instance.

Installation

1. Install django-sitesutils using pip:

 pip install django-sitesutils

2. Add RequestSiteMiddleware to your MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES setting:

 MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
 # ...
 'sitesutils.middleware.RequestSiteMiddleware',
 )

 This middleware will set site attribute for the request object. This attribute is evaluated lazily, only when you access it.

3. If you want to access current site in templates, add site context processor to your TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS settings:

 TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
 # ...
 'sitesutils.context_processors.site',
 )
