Horizon Overrides Plugin

Simple Horizon plugin which solves plugin overrides hell !

Problem

Horizon supports only one overrides.py file. But if you have more than one plugin with overrides.py maybe you want include all overrides.py files.

Require

• Python 2.6 +
• Openstack Dashboard Icehouse +

Installation notes

pip install horizon-overrides-plugin

INSTALLED_APPS += ('horizon_overrides',)

HORIZON_CONFIG['customization_module'] = 'horizon_overrides.overrides'

Usage

• all overrides.py files will be included in defeault state
• you can specify OVERRIDES = ['my_plugin','my_second_plugin.overrides', 'another_plugin.will_be_overrides'] in settings.py which restrict includes

OVERRIDES = ['my_plugin','my_second_plugin.overrides', 'another_plugin.will_be_overrides']

NOTE: all plugins must be in the INSTALLED_APPS tuple

Full example config

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    "horizon_overrides",
    "horizon_telemetry",
    "horizon_monitoring",
    "horizon_billing",
)

HORIZON_CONFIG['customization_module'] = 'horizon_overrides.overrides'

OVERRIDES = (
    "horizon_telemetry.overrides",
    "horizon_monitoring",
    "horizon_billing.another_name_for_override_file",
)
