I 'm trying to create a form dynamically. This works just fine, but
there's no way for the form to offer any customized validation, by way
of the clean() method.
def get_dept_weight_form(store):
fields = {}
s = Store.objects.get(pk=store.id)
for d in store.department_set.all():
fields['id_%d' % d.id] = forms.DecimalField(
label = d.name,
initial = d.weight
)
return type('WeightForm', (forms.BaseForm,), {'base_fields':
fields})
Basically, this form spits out a label showing the department name and
the weight for you to enter in a textbox. The weights for all
departments should total 1.0. Should a clean() method handle this?
I already use an overridden version of save() on the store model, but
that just prints out a warning to stdout. Also, I have this
validation for the admin part by overriding the clean method for my
declared ModelForm.
Perhaps I should just use the functionality I already created in
models.py and just raise a ValidationError?
Thx
