Hi Anton,
Thank you very much for your response. The 'fields_for_a' is generating the
form fields for the instance of the model 'A'. The author admits that it
might not be the prettiest implementation, but fully functional.
def fields_for_a(instance):
# generate a sorted dict of fields corresponding to the Field model
# for the A instance
fields_dict = SortedDict()
fields = field_list(instance)
# this really, really should be refactored
for field in fields:
if field.field_type == Field.BOOLEAN_FIELD:
fields_dict[field.name] = forms.BooleanField(label=field.label,
required=False, help_text=field.help_text)
elif field.field_type == Field.CHAR_FIELD:
widget = forms.TextInput
fields_dict[field.name] = forms.CharField(label=field.label,
required=field.required, max_length=field.max_length,
help_text=field.help_text, widget=widget)
.........................(etc)................
fields_dict[field.name] = field_type(label=field.label,
required=field.required,
help_text=field.help_text,
max_length=field.max_length,
widget=widget)
return fields_dict
I am hoping to add an additional field, "Photographers" (from the
'Photographer' model) to AForm so that users can select a Photographer to
become part of an instance of the 'A' model.
Does that make sense?
Thank you very much for any ideas!
