$ pip install -e git://github.com/Lenders-Cooperative/admin-search-plus#egg=admin-search-plus

Building from source

$ pip install admin_search_plus.whl

Usage

1. Add admin_search_plus to your INSTALLED_APPS before django.contrib.admin:

   INSTALLED_APPS = [
       'app_to_be_overrided',
       ...
       'admin_search_plus',
       ...
       'django.contrib.admin',
       'django.contrib.auth',
       'django.contrib.contenttypes',
       'django.contrib.sessions',
       'django.contrib.messages',
       'django.contrib.staticfiles',
   ]
   

   NOTE: To override a template, the app should be listed before admin_search_plus

2. In admin.py import AdminSearchPlusMixin to add search functions to ModelAdmin.

   from admin_search_plus import AdminSearchPlusMixin
   
   class YourModelAdmin(AdminSearchPlusMixin, admin.ModelAdmin):
       admin_search_plus = True
       show_full_result_count = False
       show_result_count = False
   
   admin.site.register(YourModel, YourModelAdmin)
