-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
The default widget for NullBooleanFields result in a selectbox with 3
options being shown.
In my opinion it should also be possible to represent those 3 options by
radio inputs.
However, simply changing the form widget for a NullBooleanField to be a
RadioSelect, will result in no form inputs whatsoever being shown.
Here is the code to reproduce it:
{{{
from django.db import models
class MyTestModel(models.Model):
foo = models.NullBooleanField(blank=True, null=True)
}}}
{{{
from django import forms
class MyTestModelForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = MyTestModel
fields = ('foo',)
widgets = {
'foo': forms.RadioSelect,
}
}}}
I'm not sure if this is a bug or if the bahaviour is intentional.
As a workaround I tried to just initialize the choices manually in the
widget, like this:
{{{
widgets = {
'foo': forms.RadioSelect(choices=(('', 'Unknown'), ('1',
'Yes'), ('0', 'No'))),
}
}}}
However, this works in terms of storing the correct value, but it does not
render the selected radio input as checked.
I'd like to work in this if someone can confirm that this behaviour is not
intended.
