The site broadcast application allows users to define short messages and announcements that should be displayed across a site.
Each broadcast message consists of a short message, an optional start time, and a completion time, when the should be displayed across a site.
Use pip:
pip install django-site-broadcasts
Or clone the repository and use the setup.py file to install the application.
python setup.py install
Then add broadcasts to your INSTALLED_APPS and
broadcasts.context_processors.broadcast_message to
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS.
If you've added the context processor to your list of context processors, you can simply refer to the current message using the context variable:
{{ broadcast_message }}
The message itself should be displayed with:
{{ broadcast_message.message }}
- Handle time zones (Django project timezone may differ from server timezone)
