django_popup_view_field
to your INSTALLED_APPS setting
Add settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = [ ... 'bootstrap3', # If you use django-bootstrap3 'crispy_forms', # If you user django-crispy-forms 'django_popup_view_field', ... ] # If you want use bootstrap4 then uncomment # DJANGO_POPUP_VIEW_FIELD_TEMPLATE_PACK = 'bootstrap4'
- Warning:
- Is recommended use django-bootstrap3/django-bootstrap4 or django-crispy-forms to render forms and fields, but this is not necessary. You can still write django templates using pure CSS from bootstrap3/4. More information about bootstrap forms in here: http://getbootstrap.com/css/#forms
Add the django_popup_view_field urls to your root url patterns
urls.py
urlpatterns = [ ... url( r'^django_popup_view_field/', include('django_popup_view_field.urls', namespace="django_popup_view_field") ), ]
- Note:
- The URL path can be whatever you want, but you must include 'django_popup_view_field.urls' with the 'django_popup_view_field' namespace. You may leave out the namespace in Django >= 1.9
django_popup_view_field_javascript
tag
In your base template, add django_popup_view_field_javascript
template tag load all required javascripts and
template-scripts for application.
Tag should be append before body close </body> tag and after jQuery and Bootstrap scripts.
base.html
<!DOCTYPE html> {% load django_popup_view_field_tags %} <html> <head> ... <!-- Bootstrap CSS should be here --> ... </head> <body> ... ... <!-- jQuery script should be here --> <!-- Bootstrap javascripts should be here --> ... ... {% django_popup_view_field_javascript %} </body> </html>
Settings
DJANGO_POPUP_VIEW_FIELD_TEMPLATE_PACK
Since version 0.6.0, django-popup-view-fields has built-in support for bootstrap4 also. To enable support for bootstrap4 you have to set DJANGO_POPUP_VIEW_FIELD_TEMPLATE_PACK to "bootstrap4" value.
-
- bootstrap3 - this setting will be load javascript and html templates for bootstrap3.
- This is a default value
- bootstrap4 - this setting will be load javascript and html templates for bootstrap4.
Value of DJANGO_POPUP_VIEW_FIELD_TEMPLATE_PACK is changing behavior of '{% django_popup_view_field_javascript %}' tag and PopupViewWidget class. Template scripts_include.html is using this flag to decide which template and javascript will be load. PopupViewWidget class is using this flag to decide which template for field should be load.
Simple Example
Create PopupView
Html content rendered by this view will be loaded into bootstrap dialog. Create your popup view same as normal django view.
templates/myapp/popups/colors.html
<ul> <li data-popup-view-value="red" style="background:red;"> red hat </li> <li data-popup-view-value="blue" style="background:blue;"> blue sky </li> <li data-popup-view-value="green" style="background:green;"> green planet </li> <li data-popup-view-value="pink" style="background:pink;"> pink car </li> </ul>
If user click on the element with the attribute data-popup-view-value
,
the value of this attribute will be set in form field and dialog will close.
If you want set content of element as value in form field, use html()
for attribute:
<li data-popup-view-value="html()"> This text will be use :) </li>
popups.py
from django.views.generic import TemplateView from django_popup_view_field.registry import registry_popup_view class ColorsPopupView(TemplateView): template_name = 'myapp/popups/colors.html' # REGISTER IS IMPORTANT registry_popup_view.register(ColorsPopupView)
Remember that you must register your popup view. After register you can run your popup view by call url:
..../django_popup_view_field/ColorsPopupView
In template you can get url to popup view using url tag:
{% url "django_popup_view_field:get_popup_view" 'ColorsPopupView' %}
After register you can unregister your popup view:
registry_popup_view.unregister(ColorsPopupView) # or unregister by view name registry_popup_view.unregister_by_name('ColorsPopupView')
You can also get popup view class by name:
view_class = registry_popup_view.get('ColorsPopupView') view_class.as_view()
Create Form with PopupViewField
forms.py
from django import forms from django_popup_view_field.fields import PopupViewField from myapp.popups import ColorsPopupView class ColorForm(forms.Form): color = PopupViewField( view_class=ColorsPopupView, popup_dialog_title='What is your favorite color', attrs={'readonly': True}, required=True, help_text='be honest' )
class PopupViewField(view_class, popup_dialog_title, *args, **kwargs)
-
view_class
- required - popup view class, view to render dialog content, must be subclass of django.views.generic.View -
popup_dialog_title
- not required - Title for dialog, defaultPopup Dialog: Select value
-
attrs
- not required - provides attributes for Widget -
args
andkwargs
are default for CharField
Create typical FormView
views.py
from django.views.generic import FormView from myapp.forms import ColorForm from django.http import HttpResponse class ColorFormView(FormView): template_name = "myapp/color_form.html" form_class = ColorForm def form_valid(self, form): color = form.cleaned_data.get("color") return HttpResponse("Your color: {0}".format(color))
Template using django-crispy-forms
templates/myapp/color_form.html
{% extends "base.html" %} {% load crispy_forms_tags %} {% crispy form %}
Template using django-bootstrap3
templates/myapp/color_form.html
{% extends "base.html" %} {% load bootstrap3 %} <form action="." method="post" class="form"> {% csrf_token %} {% bootstrap_form form %} {% buttons %} <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button> {% endbuttons %} </form>
Template with pure bootstrap3 css (without django-bootstrap3 and crispy)
templates/myapp/color_form.html
{% extends "base.html" %} <form action="." method="post" class="form"> <div class="form-group"> <label class="control-label"> {{ form.color.label }} </label> {{ form.color }} </div> <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button> </form>
callback_data attribute
If you want pass extra parameters to your popup view, you should use callback_data attribute for PopupViewField. This argument should be dictionary or OrderedDict. This dictionary containing yours parameters will be encoded to ASCII text string and added to url address. In your popup view You can take this parameters from request.GET.
popups.py
from django.views.generic import View from django_popup_view_field.registry import registry_popup_view class FooPopupView(View): def get(self, request): print(request.GET['extra_param']) # --> will be "Foo Bar" print(request.GET['my_pk']) # --> will be 666 .... # REGISTER IS IMPORTANT registry_popup_view.register(FooPopupView)
forms.py
from django import forms from django_popup_view_field.fields import PopupViewField class FooForm(forms.Form): some_field = PopupViewField( view_class=FooPopupView, callback_data={ 'extra_param': 'Foo Bar', 'my_pk': 666 } )
Advanced Example
Advanced Example use django-bootstrap3. Dialog is interactive, all links and forms will be send via Ajax and response will be loaded in dialog.
PopupView
templates/myapp/popups/alphabet.html
<h4> Select the first letter of your name </h4> {% for char in alphabet %} <div class="btn btn-xs btn-info" data-popup-view-value="html()"> {{ char }} </div> {% if forloop.counter|divisibleby:"13" and forloop.counter > 0 %} <br/><br/> {% endif %} {% endfor %} {# Button to change order #} <a class="btn btn-xs btn-primary" style="margin-top:20px;" href="{% url "django_popup_view_field:get_popup_view" 'AlphabetPopupView' %}?direction={{direction}}"> Reverse order </a>
popups.py
from django.views.generic import TemplateView from django_popup_view_field.registry import registry_popup_view from string import ascii_uppercase class AlphabetPopupView(TemplateView): template_name = 'myapp/popups/alphabet.html' direction = 1 def get_context_data(self, **kwargs): self.direction = int(self.request.GET.get("direction") or self.direction) alphabet = ascii_uppercase[::self.direction] ctx = super(AlphabetPopupView, self).get_context_data(**kwargs) ctx['alphabet'] = alphabet ctx['direction'] = self.direction * -1 return ctx # REGISTER IS IMPORTANT registry_popup_view.register(AlphabetPopupView)
Form with PopupViewField
forms.py
from django import forms from django_popup_view_field.fields import PopupViewField from myapp.popups import AlphabetPopupView class AlphabetForm(forms.Form): char = PopupViewField(view_class=AlphabetPopupView, required=True)
View
templates/myapp/alphabet.html
{% extends "base.html" %} {% load bootstrap3 %} <form action="." method="post" class="form"> {% csrf_token %} {% bootstrap_form form %} {% buttons %} <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button> {% endbuttons %} </form>
views.py
from django.views.generic import FormView from myapp.forms import AlphabetForm from django.http import HttpResponse class AlphabetFormView(FormView): template_name = "myapp/alphabet.html" form_class = AlphabetForm def form_valid(self, form): char = form.cleaned_data.get("char") return HttpResponse("First letter of your name : {0}".format(char))
PopupViewModelField Example
PopupViewModelField
allows you to send model objects through the form inheriting from ModelForm
.
Model
models.py
from django.db import models class Country(models.Model): code = models.CharField(max_length=2, primary_key=True) name = models.CharField(max_length=256) class ExampleUser(models.Model): first_name = models.CharField(max_length=30) last_name = models.CharField(max_length=30) country_code = models.ForeignKey(Country, on_delete=models.PROTECT)
PopupView
templates/myapp/popups/country.html
<ul> {% for country in countries %} <li style="cursor:pointer" data-popup-view-value="{{ country.code }}"> <strong>{{ country.code }}</strong> - {{ country.name }} </li> {% endfor %} <ul>
- Note:
-
data-popup-view-value
attribute should return the primary key value of the model object.
popups.py
class CountryPopupView(TemplateView): template_name = "myapp/popups/country.html" countries = None def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs): self.countries = Country.objects.all() return super(CountryPopupView, self).get(request, *args, **kwargs) def get_context_data(self, **kwargs): context = super(CountryPopupView, self).get_context_data(**kwargs) context['countries'] = self.countries return context # REGISTER IS IMPORTANT registry_popup_view.register(CountryPopupView)
Form with PopupViewModelField
forms.py
from django import forms from django.forms import ModelForm from .models import Country, ExampleUser from django_popup_view_field.fields import PopupViewModelField class CountryForm(ModelForm): country_code = PopupViewModelField( queryset=Country.objects.all(), view_class=CountryPopupView, required=True ) class Meta: model = ExampleUser fields = ('first_name', 'last_name', 'country_code')
- Note:
-
PopupViewModelField
must have an additionalqueryset
argument in which we pass model objects.
View
templates/myapp/country.html
{% extends "base.html" %} {% load bootstrap3 %} <form action="." method="post" class="form"> {% csrf_token %} {% bootstrap_form form %} {% buttons %} <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button> {% endbuttons %} </form>
views.py
from django.views.generic import FormView from myapp.forms import CountryForm from django.contrib import messages class CountryFormView(FormView): template_name = "myapp/country.html" form_class = CountryForm def form_valid(self, form): ret = super(CountryFormView, self).form_valid(form) country_code = form.cleaned_data.get("country_code") messages.success( self.request, "Success in create example user with code of country: {0}".format(country_code) ) return ret
