allow notifications for new books #68

Description

@allynt

Add a notify_books attribute of GrumpySettings. If set to "True", the code should send an email to the admin whenever a new book is created (and deleted?) (but not updated). Obviously, the title of the book should not be included in the email.

The code could work a bit like this:

grumpy/books/views.py:

from django.conf import settings
from django.contrib.sites.shortcuts import get_current_site
from django.core.mail import mail_managers
....
class BookCreateView(LoginRequiredMixin, UserPassesTestMixin, CreateView):
    ....
    def form_valid(self, form):
        ....
        book = self.object
        ....
        if settings.NOTIFY_BOOKS:
            subject = super().format_email_subject(f"new book added for {book.owner}")
            message = f"User {current_user.email} added a new book [{book.id}] at at {get_current_site(request)}."
            mail_managers(subject, message, fail_silently=True)
        ....
