Package: django-formed
# django-formedA form designer which can create multi-page forms with fieldsets, rows and multiple fields per row. Also an optionalsummary page, multiple notification recipients, an automatic confirmation E-mail and custom form fields are possible.The forms are built using pure Django forms which handle all validation and cleaning of form fields. The lay-out of theforms is handled in overridable templates. Developers can choose to render the form, fieldset, row or fieldautomatically by simply printing them or manually by iterating them and printing every bit of HTML themselves.## Table of contents- [Installation](#markdown-header-installation)+ [Dependencies](#markdown-header-dependencies)+ [Compatibility](#markdown-header-compatibility)- [Configuration](#markdown-header-configuration)- [Adding custom form fields](#markdown-header-adding-custom-form-fields)- [Credits](#markdown-header-credits)## InstallationInstalling Formed is done via PyPi.pip install django-formedAfter installation the required database tables are creating by running the migration scripts.python manage.py migrate### DependenciesFormed has the following dependencies:- [Django](https://www.djangoproject.com/) *duh..*, at least version 1.6.11 and &lt;= 1.9- [jsonfield](https://github.com/bradjasper/django-jsonfield) 1.0.3### CompatibilityFormed supports Python 2.7 to 3.5.## ConfigurationFormed does not need any specific configuration but allows developers to customize a lot.Here are all useful settings:- `FORMED_FORM_FIELD_MODULES`, default: `(formed.form_fields, django.forms)`.

Simply create a new file in your project, for example`form_fields.py` and create your form field. You could for example subclass one of the existing fields and add your ownwidget.```#!pythonfrom django import formsclass MyCustomCharField(forms.CharField):widget = MyCustomWidget```For more information on how to create form fields please see the[Django documentation](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/ref/forms/fields/#creating-custom-fields).**Step 2**. In your settings add your form fields module to the `FORMED_FORM_FIELD_MODULES`. This allows Formed toactually find your custom fields.```#!pythonfrom my_project import form_fieldsFORMED_ADDITIONAL_FORM_FIELD_MODULES = [form_fields]```**Step 3**. In your settings use the setting `FORMED_ADDITIONAL_FORM_FIELDS` to make sure the editor knows how tohandle your form field.```#!pythonFORMED_ADDITIONAL_FORM_FIELDS = {'custom_text': {# The type is the class name of our field.'type': 'MyCustomCharField',# The name of the field in the drop down in the form editor.'name': _('Custom text'),# The 'component' is used in the form editor in the admin.'component': {# The name of the component template:'name': 'text-input',# Additional parameters are passed in the component:'type': 'text',}},}```**Step 4**. Add your field in the `FORMED_FORM_FIELD_CATEGORIES` dictionary. This actually adds your field in the fieldtypes drop down.```#!pythonfrom formed.settings.defaults import FORMED_FORM_FIELD_CATEGORIESfrom django.utils.translation import ugettext as _FORMED_FORM_FIELD_CATEGORIES.update({# We use gettext to make this category translatable, this is not required._('My custom fields'): [# This is the key of our field in the FORMED_ADDITIONAL_FORM_FIELDS variable:'custom_text',]})```Your new field is now available in the editor and will be rendered in the template.## CreditsThe admin interface uses the following JS libraries:- [Vue](https://vuejs.org/) for the editor.- [Sortable](https://github.com/RubaXa/Sortable) for drag and drop interaction.
