While experimenting with extending DRF, I found that the login page
1) had no title, and 2) duplicated <head> info from base.html.
This change adds a new {% block body %} to the base.html template
which allows override of the entire html <body>. login_base.html
has its duplicated head info stripped, and now extends base.html
to share common html <head> templating.
As part of this change, pretify.css is unnecessarily added to
login_base.html. If this is deemed a problem, it will be easy to
block that css out, and have login_base.html override the block.
Ideally, I would have liked to create a new api_base.html that extends
base.html, move the api specific logic into that template, and leave
base.html content agnostic, to truely be a unifying base for all DRF
pages. But this change would break current apps that override
api.html and expect base.html to be the immediate super template. :/
This change is benificial because it:
- removes duplication of header declarations (mostly css includes)
- adds a html title to the login page
- standardizes html header info across all DRF pages
Docs are updated to reflect the new structure.
This fixes a bugfix note that was added because of #1293, which
pointed out that a change in a bugfix [1] broke backwards
compatibility. The bugfix did not work as expected because a
variable was quoted when it should not have been. This removes
the quotes around the variable, which brings back the expected
functionality.
