[GeoNode-devel] template inheritance

[Francesco Bartoli]

Hi devs,

I found that circular inheritance from a geonode-project perspective is not well managed yet. Just to explain better the issue:

[geonode]
geonode/base/templates/base/resourcebase_info_panel.html

{% block morecontent %}

<some content>

{% endblock %}

[my_geonode_project]
my_geonode_project/templates/base/resourcebase_info_panel.html

{% extends "base/resourcebase_info_panel.html" %}

{% block morecontent %}

{{ block.super }}
<div>hello geonode developers</div>

{% endblock %}

This configuration ends up in such an error:

"RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object”

I have tried to adopt this approach [1] but doesn’t resolve in my case, the only way is to follow the alternative one with django-overextends. Long story short I’d like to add this latter to geonode-project as dependency and a bit of documentation how to use it for extending core templates.

Any objections?

Thanks,
Francesco
