Add a section on writing custom property methods.

Methods to discuss would include:

full_text_doc_url

A property method of the Bill class. It renders a PDF on the BillDetailView. This method points to the DataMade property-image-cache app. Here, you need to update LEGISTARS and WHITELIST, so that they reference your specific councilmatic:

LEGISTARS = { 'chicago': 'https://ord.legistar.com/View.ashx', 'nyc': 'http://legistar.council.nyc.gov/View.ashx', 'lametro': 'https://metro.legistr.com/View.ashx' }

WHITELIST = ['ord.legistar.com', 'chicago.legistar.com', 'metro.legistar1.com']
