Django Gamification aims to fill the gamification sized hole in the Django package ecosystem. In the current state, Django Gamification provides a set of models that can be used to implement gamification features in your application. These include a centralised interface for keeping track of all gamification related objects including badges, points, and unlockables.
An example app can be found here.
Download from PyPI:
pip install django-gamification
And add to your INSTALLED_APPS
:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
.

Django Gamification requires the understanding of a few core concepts.
- BadgeDefinitions: A template used to create new Badges and update existing Badges.
- Badge: An object that represents some achievable objective in the system that can award points and track its own progression.
- UnlockableDefinition: A template used to create new Unlockables and update existing Unlockables.
- Unlockable: An object that is achieved by some accumulation of points.
- Category: An object used to label other objects like Badges via their BadgeDefinition.
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.db import models
from django_gamification.models import GamificationInterface
class YourUserModel(User):
# Your user fields here
# The gamification interface
interface = models.ForeignKey(GamificationInterface)
By creating a new BadgeDefinition
, Django Gamification will
automatically create Badge
instances for all your current
GamificationInterfaces
with Badge.name
, Badge.description
,
Badge.points
, Badge.progression
and Badge.category
mimicking
the fields on the BadgeDefinition
.
from django_gamification.models import BadgeDefinition, Category
BadgeDefinition.objects.create(
name='Badge of Awesome',
description='You proved your awesomeness',
points=50,
progression_target=100,
category=Category.objects.create(name='Gold Badges', description='These are the top badges'),
)
You can manually award a Badge
instance using Badge.award()
.
from django_gamification.models import Badge
badge = Badge.objects.first()
# badge.acquired = False
badge.award()
# badge.acquired = True
By creating a new UnlockableDefinition
, Django Gamification will
automatically create Unlockable
instances for all your current
GamificationInterfaces
with Unlockable.name
,
Unlockable.description
, Unlockable.points_required
mimicking the
fields on the UnlockableDefinition
.
from django_gamification.models import UnlockableDefinition
UnlockableDefinition.objects.create(
name='Some super sought after feature',
description='You unlocked a super sought after feature',
points_required=100
)
If you find an issue or have a feature request please open an issue at Github Django Gamification Repo.
If you think that you can fix an issue or implement a feature, please make sure that it isn't assigned to someone or if it is you may ask for an update.
Once an issue is complete, open a pull request so that your contribution can be reviewed. A TravisCI build will run and be attached to your pull request. Your code must pass these checks.
Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up django-gamification for local development.
Fork the django-gamification repo on GitHub.
Clone your fork locally:
$ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/django-gamification.git
Install your local copy into a virtualenv. Assuming you have virtualenvwrapper installed, this is how you set up your fork for local development:
$ mkvirtualenv django-gamification $ cd django-gamification/ $ python setup.py develop
Create a branch for local development:
$ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
Now you can make your changes locally.
When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass flake8 and the tests, including testing other Python versions with tox:
$ py.test $ tox
To get flake8 and tox, just pip install them into your virtualenv.
Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub:
$ git add . $ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes." $ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.
At all times, please be polite with others who are working on issues. It may be their first ever patch and we want to foster a friendly and familiar open source environment.
