using django grappelli dashboard with dotcloud

Question

I'm trying to set up admin with grappelli on dotcloud services. I've got that all up and running fine however when I try and add a custom dashboard to the equation, I get errors stating:

ImportError at /admin/
No module named dashboard

However I have installed the django-grappelli as required and it is working without dashboard. All the requisites for dashboard should be there.

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'grappelli.dashboard',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.sites',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'grappelli',
    'django.contrib.admin',
    # Uncomment the next line to enable admin documentation:
    # 'django.contrib.admindocs',
)

GRAPPELLI_INDEX_DASHBOARD = 'www.dashboard.CustomIndexDashboard'

We might need a little bit more context here. But I would first look at the following in your Django settings:

Check INSTALLED_APPS and make sure that you specify grappelli.dashboard and not just dashboard.
Check GRAPPELLI_INDEX_DASHBOARD and make sure that you specify the full path to your custom dashboard module; e.g. if the class is MyDashboard in the dashboard.py file in your myapp directory, it should be myapp.dashboard.MyDashboard.

It's a little easier to solve than I first thought.

I basically just added the files for grappelli to the project rather than depending on dotcloud to install the dependencies.

Now it works fine.
