#24170: DateTimeRangeField: widget doesn't implement decompress() -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: joelburton | Owner: ngzhian Type: Uncategorized | Status: assigned Component: Database layer | Version: 1.8alpha1 (models, ORM) | Severity: Normal | Resolution: Keywords: DateTimeRangeField | Triage Stage: decompress | Unreviewed Has patch: 0 | Needs documentation: 0 Needs tests: 0 | Patch needs improvement: 0 Easy pickings: 0 | UI/UX: 0 -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
Comment (by ngzhian): Error is caused because all the new fields added in 1.8 `IntegerRangeField`, `FloatRangeField`, `DateTimeRangeField`, and `DateRangeField`, all inherit from `BaseRangeField`. `BaseRangeField` itself defines its widget as `forms.MultiWidget([self.base_field.widget, self.base_field.widget])` [https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/contrib/postgres/forms/ranges.py#L18 postgres.forms.ranges.py#18]. However, `MultiWidget` raises ` NotImplementedError('Subclasses must implement this method.')` just like @joelburton mentioned. I'm not sure how to patch this. Thinking that: 1. Each of the child classes of `BaseRangeField` should overwrite `__init__` to put in their own widgets. 2. create a new `widgets.py` file in `contrib.postgres` to define the new widgets.
