Sort Order Field
================

Sort Order Field provides a Django model field for controlling sort order.
The field includes an admin widget which makes it easy to arrange related
models in an inline form.

At the moment, the admin widget assumes it is the only field which controls
ordering for its model, and it has no awareness of the sort direction. This
is less powerful than other sort field libraries, but its design may be
useful for certain situations.

Installation
------------

Add "sort_order_field" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting::

    INSTALLED_APPS = [
        ...
        'sort_order_field',
    ]

Basic usage
-----------

Add a SortOrderField to one of your models::

    from django.db import models
    from sort_order_field import SortOrderField

    class Poll(models.Model):
        question = models.CharField(max_length=100)

    class PollOption(models.Model):
        class Meta:
            ordering = ('sort_order',)

        poll = models.ForeignKey('Poll', on_delete=models.CASCADE)
        sort_order = SortOrderField(_("Sort"))
        label = models.CharField(max_length=100)

Add the sortable model to an inline model admin for your parent model::

    from django.contrib import admin
    from . import models

    class PollOptionInline(admin.TabularInline):
        model = models.PollOption
        fields = ('sort_order', 'label',)

    @admin.register(models.Poll)
    class PollAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
        fields = ('question',)
        inlines = (PollOptionInline,)

The sort order field will be rendered as a text field with JavaScript
enhancements. When the user enters a new sort order value, the inline forms
will be reorganized according to that value. The sort order fields will be
bound by their initial values, which helps to avoid conflicts if the same
objects appear in different inlines.
