How to load a custom JS file in Django admin home?

Question

I have a heavily customized Django admin where it\'s very simple to load a custom JS file for each of my ModelAdmins:

class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):

You can override templates/admin/index.html and add the JavaScript in the block extrahead:

{% extends "admin/index.html" %}

{% block extrahead %}
    {{ block.super }}
    # add a <script> tag here with your JavaScript
{% endblock %}
