This is a Django app that manages secured conversations between users. It includes an interface for messaging and provides a platform for secure communication.
The messaging system is easy to use - every user has an Inbox, an Outbox, and a Trash. Users can compose messages, and the system makes it extremely easy to pre-load the compose-form with the recipient-user. This feature is particularly useful for putting "send xyz a message" links on a profile page.
django-messages comes with several translations, including de, fr, es_AR, and pl, making it accessible for non-English speaking users.
To get started, simply download the tar archive, unpack, and run python setup.py install, or put the messages folder on your PYTHONPATH if you're working with the trunk-version of Django.
Using django-messages is simple. Add messages to your INSTALLED_APPS setting, and include('messages.urls') at any point in your url-conf. The app includes default templates that are simple and extend a template called "base.html". These templates emit content in the block "content" and block "sidebar". While users may want to use their own templates, the included ones are good for testing and getting started.
In conclusion, django-messages is a great plugin that provides easy-to-use messaging functionality for Django-based projects. It's easy to install, simple to use, and customizable enough to make it perfect for any project.
