tgext.djangoforms 0.0.1

tgext.djangoforms is a Python module that allows you to use Django forms in turbogears. You should be able to follow the django documentation to deal with validation etc.

Installing

tgext.djangoforms can be installed from pypi:

pip install tgext.djangoforms

should just work for most of the users

Enabling Turbo Django Forms

In your application lib/app_globals.py import TDForms:

from tgext.djangoforms import TDForms

And call it inside the __init__:

class Globals(object):
 def __init__(self):
 self.tdf = TDForms()

Creating Forms

Creating forms works the same as with standard Django:

from django import forms

class ContactForm(forms.Form):
 subject = forms.CharField(max_length=100)
 message = forms.CharField()
 sender = forms.EmailField()
 cc_myself = forms.BooleanField(required=False)

Controller

You can follow most of the django forms tutorial:

@expose('mysite.templates.index')
def index(self, **kw):
 """Handle the front-page."""
 if kw:
 form = ContactForm(kw)

 if form.is_valid():
 print form.cleaned_data
 //do stuff
 tg.flash("Form OK")
 else:
 form = ContactForm()

 return dict(page='Index', form=form)

Rendering Forms

You can use the standard django style template notation in your Genshi template - but add a g.tdf(...):

< form >
${g.tdf(form.as_p)}
< button >Submit< /button >
< /form >
