Hello all, I recently got done with v1 of this project: https://github.com/pandichef/indjections
It's an installation utility for 3rd party Django packages. But then I started thinking about the issue more generally... I'm writing here because I'm kind of amazed why Django package installation often requires so many steps e.g., various configurations in settings.py, some kind URL support in urls.py, add some stuff to base.html. See django-hijack <https://django-hijack.readthedocs.io/en/stable/#installation> and django-allauth <https://django-allauth.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html> as examples. It's all reminiscent of Python package distribution before distutils. I think some kind of automated way to install packages should be part of the Django itself. Just a thought... My solution is to insert bits of code in the "right" places. I'm curious how others have solved this problem.
