Hi,
I'm trying to build a custom multivaluewidget in my django app.
Widget
class DayInputWidget(MultiWidget):
def __init__(self, attrs=None):
widgets = (DayInput(day_name='Mo'), DayInput(day_name='Di'), DayInput(day_name='Mi'), DayInput(day_name='Do'), DayInput(day_name='Fr'))
super(DayInputWidget, self).__init__(widgets, attrs)
def decompress(self, value):
print value
if value:
return value
return None
Input
class DayInput(Input):
input_type = 'text'
def __init__(self,attrs=None,day_name=None):
super(DayInput, self).__init__(attrs)
self.day_name = day_name
def render(self, name, value, attrs=None):
if name is None:
name = 'Bestellmenge_%s' % self.day_name
# create day inputs
return mark_safe(u'<label style="padding-left: 5px">%s</label><input type="text" name="%s" size="5px" value="0"/> ' % (self.day_name,name))
field
class DayInputField(forms.MultiValueField):
widget = DayInputWidget
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
fields = (forms.CharField(),forms.CharField(),forms.CharField(),forms.CharField(), forms.CharField())
super(DayInputField, self).__init__(fields, *args, **kwargs)
def compress(self, data_list):
print data_list
if data_list:
return u'|'.join(data_list)
return None
form
class OrderForm(forms.Form):
Produktart = forms.ModelChoiceField(MProductTypes.objects.all())
Kw = forms.CharField(widget=KwSelect(), required=False)
Bestellmengen = fields.DayInputField()
Problem: The form is only shown when it is bound to data. If I init the form with empty data, the validation tooks place and it will be displayed. What am doing wrong here?
I initialise my form this way
form = OrderForm()
according documentation the form should be displayed empty.
