django-live-support provides a live support chat app for Django that lets you chat with visitors to your site through the Django Admin interface.
Getting Started
To get started simply install using ``pip``:
pip install django-live-support
Add ``live_support`` to your installed apps and ``syncdb`` (or migrate, if you have south installed).
Your installed apps should look something like this:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.sites',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.admin',
'live_support',
)
Add ``live_support.urls`` to your urls.py, like so:
from django.conf.urls.defaults import patterns, include, url
from django.contrib import admin
admin.autodiscover()
urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
url(r'^support/', include('live_support.urls')),
)
Usage
You can either override the template for the ``start_chat`` (live_support/start_chat.html) and ``client_chat`` (live_support/live_support.html) views and just point users to the root of the live_support app as defined in your urls.py file, or you can drop the ``{% chat_iframe %}`` templatetag into your base template, which will render the chat sidebar (which pops out into a chat window) on every page.
