When ``auditlog`` is added to your ``INSTALLED_APPS`` setting a customized admin class is active providing an enhanced
Django Admin interface for log entries.
Audit log history view
----------------------
.. versionadded:: 3.2.2
Use ``AuditlogHistoryAdminMixin`` to add a "View" link in the admin changelist for accessing each object's audit history::
from auditlog.mixins import AuditlogHistoryAdminMixin
@admin.register(MyModel)
class MyModelAdmin(AuditlogHistoryAdminMixin, admin.ModelAdmin):
show_auditlog_history_link = True
The history page displays paginated log entries with user, timestamp, action, and field changes. Override
``auditlog_history_template`` to customize the page layout.
The mixin provides the following configuration options:
- ``show_auditlog_history_link``: Set to ``True`` to display the "View" link in the admin changelist
- ``auditlog_history_template``: Template to use for rendering the history page (default: ``auditlog/object_history.html``)
- ``auditlog_history_per_page``: Number of log entries to display per page (default: 10)
