====================
``contrib`` packages
====================
Django aims to follow Python's :ref:`"batteries included" philosophy
<tut-batteries-included>`. It ships with a variety of extra, optional tools
that solve common web development problems.
This code lives in :source:`django/contrib` in the Django distribution. This document
gives a rundown of the packages in ``contrib``, along with any dependencies
those packages have.
.. admonition:: Note
For most of these add-ons -- specifically, the add-ons that include either
models or template tags -- you'll need to add the package name (e.g.,
``'django.contrib.redirects'``) to your :setting:`INSTALLED_APPS` setting
and rerun ``manage.py migrate``.

Requires the auth_ and contenttypes_ contrib packages to be installed.
``auth``
========
Django's authentication framework.
See :doc:`/topics/auth/index`.
``contenttypes``

A light framework for hooking into "types" of content, where each installed
Django model is a separate content type.
See the :doc:`contenttypes documentation </ref/contrib/contenttypes>`.
``flatpages``
=============
A framework for managing "flat" HTML content in a database.
See the :doc:`flatpages documentation </ref/contrib/flatpages>`.
Requires the sites_ contrib package to be installed as well.

A world-class geospatial framework built on top of Django, that enables
storage, manipulation and display of spatial data.
See the :doc:`/ref/contrib/gis/index` documentation for more.
``humanize``

A set of Django template filters useful for adding a "human touch" to data.
See the :doc:`humanize documentation </ref/contrib/humanize>`.

A framework for storing and retrieving temporary cookie- or session-based
messages
See the :doc:`messages documentation </ref/contrib/messages>`.

A light framework that lets you operate multiple websites off of the same
database and Django installation. It gives you hooks for associating objects to
one or more sites.
See the :doc:`sites documentation </ref/contrib/sites>`.
``sitemaps``
============
A framework for generating Google sitemap XML files.
See the :doc:`sitemaps documentation </ref/contrib/sitemaps>`.
