Hello,
I wanted a field that would render in a rich text editor and store the data
in a TextField so I created a field type of HtmlField and custom HtmlWidge.
It works but I was wondering is anyone would be willing to give me feedback
on best practices etc, This is my first attempt at subclassing and any
points on would be great. I would like modelform to set the class to rte
and adjust rows/cols without me having to specify a widget.
Thank you,
Mark
class HtmlWidget(Textarea):
def __init__(self, attrs=None):
super(HtmlWidget, self).__init__(attrs)
def render(self, name, value, attrs=None):
if value is None: value = ''
value = smart_unicode(value)
return mark_safe(\
u'<textarea name="%s" rows="12" cols="86" class="rte">%s</textarea>'
% \
(name, escape(value)))
class HtmlField(models.TextField):
def get_internal_type(self):
return "HtmlField"
def formfield(self, **kwargs):
kwargs['widget'] = HtmlWidget
return super(HtmlField, self).formfield(**kwargs)
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(HtmlField, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
