Django Easy Audit is yet another Django audit log app, hopefully the easiest one. It will let you keep track of every action taken by your users.
Django Easy Audit uses Django signals to listen to the events happenning in your project, such as when a user creates, updates or deletes a registry. This applies to every model of every app in your project.
When any of these events takes place, Django Easy Audit will log it in the model CRUDEvent.
You can query this information in the Django Admin app.
Besides logging CRUD events, Django Easy Audit will log all authentication events (such as when a user logs in, out, or fails to log in) and all the URLs requested in the project. This information is stored in models LoginEvent and RequestEvent.
There are many Django auditing apps out there, but most them require you to change very important parts of your project's code. For example, they require you to add fields to your models, or make them inherit from a certain class. Some of them create a mirror for each of your models, which means duplicate migrations.
It is not that they don't work or that they are not great apps. But in case you need something easier to set up, and you don't want your code to depend so much on a third-party app, Django Easy Audit may be your best choice.
The good thing about this app is that it doesn't get in the way. It is easy and quick to install, and it begins logging everything right away, without you having to inject code anywhere in your project.
