Hi folks,
I'm curious how people are managing complex forms in their django
applications these days. As an example, let's say we're editing an address
book entry, where someone can have multiple e-mail addresses and phone
numbers. Ideally, I'd want to do something like:
class AddressBookEntry(Form):
first_name = forms.CharField()
last_name = forms.CharField()
phone_numbers = forms.MultiField(forms.CharField())
email_addresses = forms.MultiField(forms.EmailAddressField())
addresses = forms.MultiField([forms.CharField(name="line1"),
forms.CharField(name="line2"), forms.CharField("city"), ...])
Of course, I'd need some JavaScript to manage adding and removing the actual
HTML <input> fields.
That's theoretical; how are people actually doing this? Using multiple Form
objects and formsets (one formset each for phone numbers and addresses)?
Processing the form manually? Writing custom fields and widgets that
understand multi-valued entries? Using a different forms package?
Something else?
Cheers,
-- Philip
