I have data that looks like this:
formfields = [{'label': u'IP address of hacker', 'type': u'String',
'name': u'locationIp'}, {'label': u'Created end date', 'type':
u'Date', 'name': u'createdEndDate'}, {'label': u'Created start date',
'type': u'Date', 'name': u'createdStartDate'}]
I want to generate a forms.Form object from it, so I wrote the
following code (ReportForm is just an empty declaration of a form
class):
---------
TYPE_MAPPING = {
'Date': forms.DateTimeField(required=True,
widget=forms.DateTimeInput({'class': 'datetime'})),
'String': forms.CharField(max_length=100, required=True),
'Long': forms.IntegerField(required=False),
'Integer': forms.IntegerField(required=False),
'Boolean': forms.BooleanField(required=False),
}
def get_form_for_report(formfields, postdata=None):
if postdata:
form = ReportForm(postdata)
else:
form = ReportForm()
attrs = formfields.reverse()
for f in attrs:
form.fields.insert(1, f['name'], TYPE_MAPPING.get(f['type']))
form.fields[f['name']].label = f['label']
return form
---------
However, when this code executes, the form generated works perfectly,
but the label is not always set properly. In this particular example,
I get two fields (with correct field names) that have the label
"Created Start Date".
Where I am going wrong here?
