- :synopsis: Splits forms across multiple Web pages.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Django comes with an optional "form wizard" application that splits
|
|
|
-:doc:`forms </topics/forms/index>` across multiple Web pages. It maintains
|
|
|
-state in one of the backends so that the full server-side processing can be
|
|
|
-delayed until the submission of the final form.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-You might want to use this if you have a lengthy form that would be too
|
|
|
-unwieldy for display on a single page. The first page might ask the user for
|
|
|
-core information, the second page might ask for less important information,
|
|
|
-etc.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The term "wizard", in this context, is `explained on Wikipedia`_.

|
|
|
-How it works
|
|
|
-============
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Here's the basic workflow for how a user would use a wizard:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-1. The user visits the first page of the wizard, fills in the form and
|
|
|
- submits it.
|
|
|
-2. The server validates the data. If it's invalid, the form is displayed
|
|
|
- again, with error messages. If it's valid, the server saves the current
|
|
|
- state of the wizard in the backend and redirects to the next step.
|
|
|
-3. Step 1 and 2 repeat, for every subsequent form in the wizard.
|
|
|
-4. Once the user has submitted all the forms and all the data has been
|
|
|
- validated, the wizard processes the data -- saving it to the database,
|
|
|
- sending an email, or whatever the application needs to do.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Usage
|
|
|
-=====
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-This application handles as much machinery for you as possible. Generally,
|
|
|
-you just have to do these things:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-1. Define a number of :class:`~django.forms.Form` classes -- one per
|
|
|
- wizard page.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-2. Create a :class:`WizardView` subclass that specifies what to do once
|
|
|
- all of your forms have been submitted and validated. This also lets
|
|
|
- you override some of the wizard's behavior.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-3. Create some templates that render the forms. You can define a single,
|
|
|
- generic template to handle every one of the forms, or you can define a
|
|
|
- specific template for each form.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-4. Add ``django.contrib.formtools`` to your
|
|
|
- :setting:`INSTALLED_APPS` list in your settings file.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-5. Point your URLconf at your :class:`WizardView` :meth:`~WizardView.as_view`
|
|
|
- method.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Defining ``Form`` classes
|
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The first step in creating a form wizard is to create the
|
|
|
-:class:`~django.forms.Form` classes. These should be standard
|
|
|
-:class:`django.forms.Form` classes, covered in the :doc:`forms documentation
|
|
|
-</topics/forms/index>`. These classes can live anywhere in your codebase,
|
|
|
-but convention is to put them in a file called :file:`forms.py` in your
|
|
|
-application.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-For example, let's write a "contact form" wizard, where the first page's form
|
|
|
-collects the sender's email address and subject, and the second page collects
|
|
|
-the message itself. Here's what the :file:`forms.py` might look like::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- from django import forms
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- class ContactForm1(forms.Form):
|
|
|
- subject = forms.CharField(max_length=100)
|
|
|
- sender = forms.EmailField()
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- class ContactForm2(forms.Form):
|
|
|
- message = forms.CharField(widget=forms.Textarea)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. note::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- In order to use :class:`~django.forms.FileField` in any form, see the
|
|
|
- section :ref:`Handling files <wizard-files>` below to learn more about
|
|
|
- what to do.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Creating a ``WizardView`` subclass
|
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. class:: SessionWizardView
|
|
|
-.. class:: CookieWizardView
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The next step is to create a
|
|
|
-:class:`django.contrib.formtools.wizard.views.WizardView` subclass. You can
|
|
|
-also use the :class:`SessionWizardView` or :class:`CookieWizardView` classes
|
|
|
-which preselect the backend used for storing information during execution of the
|
|
|
-wizard (as their names indicate, server-side sessions and browser cookies
|
|
|
-respectively).
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. note::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- To use the :class:`SessionWizardView` follow the instructions
|
|
|
- in the :doc:`sessions documentation </topics/http/sessions>` on
|
|
|
- how to enable sessions.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-We will use the :class:`SessionWizardView` in all examples but is completely
|
|
|
-fine to use the :class:`CookieWizardView` instead. As with your
|
|
|
-:class:`~django.forms.Form` classes, this :class:`WizardView` class can live
|
|
|
-anywhere in your codebase, but convention is to put it in :file:`views.py`.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The only requirement on this subclass is that it implement a
|
|
|
-:meth:`~WizardView.done()` method.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.done(form_list, form_dict, **kwargs)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- This method specifies what should happen when the data for *every* form is
|
|
|
- submitted and validated. This method is passed a list and dictionary of
|
|
|
- validated :class:`~django.forms.Form` instances.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- In this simplistic example, rather than performing any database operation,
|
|
|
- the method simply renders a template of the validated data::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
|
|
|
- from django.contrib.formtools.wizard.views import SessionWizardView
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- class ContactWizard(SessionWizardView):
|
|
|
- def done(self, form_list, **kwargs):
|
|
|
- return render_to_response('done.html', {
|
|
|
- 'form_data': [form.cleaned_data for form in form_list],
|
|
|
- })
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Note that this method will be called via ``POST``, so it really ought to be a
|
|
|
- good Web citizen and redirect after processing the data. Here's another
|
|
|
- example::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
|
|
|
- from django.contrib.formtools.wizard.views import SessionWizardView
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- class ContactWizard(SessionWizardView):
|
|
|
- def done(self, form_list, **kwargs):
|
|
|
- do_something_with_the_form_data(form_list)
|
|
|
- return HttpResponseRedirect('/page-to-redirect-to-when-done/')
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- In addition to ``form_list``, the :meth:`~WizardView.done` method
|
|
|
- is passed a ``form_dict``, which allows you to access the wizard's
|
|
|
- forms based on their step names. This is especially useful when using
|
|
|
- :class:`NamedUrlWizardView`, for example::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def done(self, form_list, form_dict, **kwargs):
|
|
|
- user = form_dict['user'].save()
|
|
|
- credit_card = form_dict['credit_card'].save()
|
|
|
- # ...
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- .. versionchanged:: 1.7
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Previously, the ``form_dict`` argument wasn't passed to the
|
|
|
- ``done`` method.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-See the section :ref:`Advanced WizardView methods <wizardview-advanced-methods>`
|
|
|
-below to learn about more :class:`WizardView` hooks.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Creating templates for the forms
|
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Next, you'll need to create a template that renders the wizard's forms. By
|
|
|
-default, every form uses a template called
|
|
|
-:file:`formtools/wizard/wizard_form.html`. You can change this template name
|
|
|
-by overriding either the
|
|
|
-:attr:`~django.views.generic.base.TemplateResponseMixin.template_name` attribute
|
|
|
-or the
|
|
|
-:meth:`~django.views.generic.base.TemplateResponseMixin.get_template_names()`
|
|
|
-method, which are documented in the
|
|
|
-:class:`~django.views.generic.base.TemplateResponseMixin` documentation. The
|
|
|
-latter one allows you to use a different template for each form (:ref:`see the
|
|
|
-example below <wizard-template-for-each-form>`).
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-This template expects a ``wizard`` object that has various items attached to
|
|
|
-it:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* ``form`` -- The :class:`~django.forms.Form` or
|
|
|
- :class:`~django.forms.formsets.BaseFormSet` instance for the current step
|
|
|
- (either empty or with errors).
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* ``steps`` -- A helper object to access the various steps related data:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * ``step0`` -- The current step (zero-based).
|
|
|
- * ``step1`` -- The current step (one-based).
|
|
|
- * ``count`` -- The total number of steps.
|
|
|
- * ``first`` -- The first step.
|
|
|
- * ``last`` -- The last step.
|
|
|
- * ``current`` -- The current (or first) step.
|
|
|
- * ``next`` -- The next step.
|
|
|
- * ``prev`` -- The previous step.
|
|
|
- * ``index`` -- The index of the current step.
|
|
|
- * ``all`` -- A list of all steps of the wizard.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-You can supply additional context variables by using the
|
|
|
-:meth:`~WizardView.get_context_data` method of your :class:`WizardView`
|
|
|
-subclass.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Here's a full example template:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. code-block:: html+django
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- {% extends "base.html" %}
|
|
|
- {% load i18n %}
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- {% block head %}
|
|
|
- {{ wizard.form.media }}
|
|
|
- {% endblock %}
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- {% block content %}
|
|
|
- <p>Step {{ wizard.steps.step1 }} of {{ wizard.steps.count }}</p>
|
|
|
- <form action="" method="post">{% csrf_token %}
|
|
|
- <table>
|
|
|
- {{ wizard.management_form }}
|
|
|
- {% if wizard.form.forms %}
|
|
|
- {{ wizard.form.management_form }}
|
|
|
- {% for form in wizard.form.forms %}
|
|
|
- {{ form }}
|
|
|
- {% endfor %}
|
|
|
- {% else %}
|
|
|
- {{ wizard.form }}
|
|
|
- {% endif %}
|
|
|
- </table>
|
|
|
- {% if wizard.steps.prev %}
|
|
|
- <button name="wizard_goto_step" type="submit" value="{{ wizard.steps.first }}">{% trans "first step" %}</button>
|
|
|
- <button name="wizard_goto_step" type="submit" value="{{ wizard.steps.prev }}">{% trans "prev step" %}</button>
|
|
|
- {% endif %}
|
|
|
- <input type="submit" value="{% trans "submit" %}"/>
|
|
|
- </form>
|
|
|
- {% endblock %}
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. note::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Note that ``{{ wizard.management_form }}`` **must be used** for
|
|
|
- the wizard to work properly.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. _wizard-urlconf:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Hooking the wizard into a URLconf
|
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.as_view()
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Finally, we need to specify which forms to use in the wizard, and then
|
|
|
-deploy the new :class:`WizardView` object at a URL in the ``urls.py``. The
|
|
|
-wizard's ``as_view()`` method takes a list of your
|
|
|
-:class:`~django.forms.Form` classes as an argument during instantiation::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- from django.conf.urls import url
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- from myapp.forms import ContactForm1, ContactForm2
|
|
|
- from myapp.views import ContactWizard
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- urlpatterns = [
|
|
|
- url(r'^contact/$', ContactWizard.as_view([ContactForm1, ContactForm2])),
|
|
|
- ]
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-You can also pass the form list as a class attribute named ``form_list``::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- class ContactWizard(WizardView):
|
|
|
- form_list = [ContactForm1, ContactForm2]
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. _wizard-template-for-each-form:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Using a different template for each form
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-As mentioned above, you may specify a different template for each form.
|
|
|
-Consider an example using a form wizard to implement a multi-step checkout
|
|
|
-process for an online store. In the first step, the user specifies a billing
|
|
|
-and shipping address. In the second step, the user chooses payment type. If
|
|
|
-they chose to pay by credit card, they will enter credit card information in
|
|
|
-the next step. In the final step, they will confirm the purchase.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Here's what the view code might look like::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
|
|
|
- from django.contrib.formtools.wizard.views import SessionWizardView
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- FORMS = [("address", myapp.forms.AddressForm),
|
|
|
- ("paytype", myapp.forms.PaymentChoiceForm),
|
|
|
- ("cc", myapp.forms.CreditCardForm),
|
|
|
- ("confirmation", myapp.forms.OrderForm)]
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- TEMPLATES = {"address": "checkout/billingaddress.html",
|
|
|
- "paytype": "checkout/paymentmethod.html",
|
|
|
- "cc": "checkout/creditcard.html",
|
|
|
- "confirmation": "checkout/confirmation.html"}
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def pay_by_credit_card(wizard):
|
|
|
- """Return true if user opts to pay by credit card"""
|
|
|
- # Get cleaned data from payment step
|
|
|
- cleaned_data = wizard.get_cleaned_data_for_step('paytype') or {'method': 'none'}
|
|
|
- # Return true if the user selected credit card
|
|
|
- return cleaned_data['method'] == 'cc'
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- class OrderWizard(SessionWizardView):
|
|
|
- def get_template_names(self):
|
|
|
- return [TEMPLATES[self.steps.current]]
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def done(self, form_list, **kwargs):
|
|
|
- do_something_with_the_form_data(form_list)
|
|
|
- return HttpResponseRedirect('/page-to-redirect-to-when-done/')
|
|
|
- ...
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The ``urls.py`` file would contain something like::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- urlpatterns = [
|
|
|
- url(r'^checkout/$', OrderWizard.as_view(FORMS, condition_dict={'cc': pay_by_credit_card})),
|
|
|
- ]
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The ``condition_dict`` can be passed as attribute for the ``as_view()`
|
|
|
-method or as a class attribute named ``condition_dict``::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- class OrderWizard(WizardView):
|
|
|
- condition_dict = {'cc': pay_by_credit_card}
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Note that the ``OrderWizard`` object is initialized with a list of pairs.
|
|
|
-The first element in the pair is a string that corresponds to the name of the
|
|
|
-step and the second is the form class.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-In this example, the
|
|
|
-:meth:`~django.views.generic.base.TemplateResponseMixin.get_template_names()`
|
|
|
-method returns a list containing a single template, which is selected based on
|
|
|
-the name of the current step.

-Advanced ``WizardView`` methods
|
|
|
-===============================
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. class:: WizardView
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Aside from the :meth:`~done()` method, :class:`WizardView` offers a few
|
|
|
- advanced method hooks that let you customize how your wizard works.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Some of these methods take an argument ``step``, which is a zero-based
|
|
|
- counter as string representing the current step of the wizard. (E.g., the
|
|
|
- first form is ``'0'`` and the second form is ``'1'``)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.get_form_prefix(step=None, form=None)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Returns the prefix which will be used when calling the form for the given
|
|
|
- step. ``step`` contains the step name, ``form`` the form class which will
|
|
|
- be called with the returned prefix.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- If no ``step`` is given, it will be determined automatically. By default,
|
|
|
- this simply uses the step itself and the ``form`` parameter is not used.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- For more, see the :ref:`form prefix documentation <form-prefix>`.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.get_form_initial(step)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Returns a dictionary which will be passed as the
|
|
|
- :attr:`~django.forms.Form.initial` argument when instantiating the Form
|
|
|
- instance for step ``step``. If no initial data was provided while
|
|
|
- initializing the form wizard, an empty dictionary should be returned.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- The default implementation::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def get_form_initial(self, step):
|
|
|
- return self.initial_dict.get(step, {})
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.get_form_kwargs(step)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Returns a dictionary which will be used as the keyword arguments when
|
|
|
- instantiating the form instance on given ``step``.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- The default implementation::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def get_form_kwargs(self, step):
|
|
|
- return {}
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.get_form_instance(step)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- This method will be called only if a :class:`~django.forms.ModelForm` is
|
|
|
- used as the form for step ``step``.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Returns an :class:`~django.db.models.Model` object which will be passed as
|
|
|
- the ``instance`` argument when instantiating the ``ModelForm`` for step
|
|
|
- ``step``. If no instance object was provided while initializing the form
|
|
|
- wizard, ``None`` will be returned.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- The default implementation::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def get_form_instance(self, step):
|
|
|
- return self.instance_dict.get(step, None)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.get_context_data(form, **kwargs)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Returns the template context for a step. You can overwrite this method
|
|
|
- to add more data for all or some steps. This method returns a dictionary
|
|
|
- containing the rendered form step.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- The default template context variables are:
|

|
-
|
|
|
- * Any extra data the storage backend has stored
|
|
|
- * ``wizard`` -- a dictionary representation of the wizard instance with the
|
|
|
- following key/values:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * ``form`` -- :class:`~django.forms.Form` or
|
|
|
- :class:`~django.forms.formsets.BaseFormSet` instance for the current step
|
|
|
- * ``steps`` -- A helper object to access the various steps related data
|
|
|
- * ``management_form`` -- all the management data for the current step
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Example to add extra variables for a specific step::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def get_context_data(self, form, **kwargs):
|
|
|
- context = super(MyWizard, self).get_context_data(form=form, **kwargs)
|
|
|
- if self.steps.current == 'my_step_name':
|
|
|
- context.update({'another_var': True})
|
|
|
- return context
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.get_prefix(*args, **kwargs)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- This method returns a prefix for use by the storage backends. Backends use
|
|
|
- the prefix as a mechanism to allow data to be stored separately for each
|
|
|
- wizard. This allows wizards to store their data in a single backend
|
|
|
- without overwriting each other.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- You can change this method to make the wizard data prefix more unique to,
|
|
|
- e.g. have multiple instances of one wizard in one session.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Default implementation::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def get_prefix(self, *args, **kwargs):
|
|
|
- # use the lowercase underscore version of the class name
|
|
|
- return normalize_name(self.__class__.__name__)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.get_form(step=None, data=None, files=None)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- This method constructs the form for a given ``step``. If no ``step`` is
|
|
|
- defined, the current step will be determined automatically. If you override
|
|
|
- ``get_form``, however, you will need to set ``step`` yourself using
|
|
|
- ``self.steps.current`` as in the example below. The method gets three
|
|
|
- arguments:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * ``step`` -- The step for which the form instance should be generated.
|
|
|
- * ``data`` -- Gets passed to the form's data argument
|
|
|
- * ``files`` -- Gets passed to the form's files argument
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- You can override this method to add extra arguments to the form instance.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Example code to add a user attribute to the form on step 2::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def get_form(self, step=None, data=None, files=None):
|
|
|
- form = super(MyWizard, self).get_form(step, data, files)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- # determine the step if not given
|
|
|
- if step is None:
|
|
|
- step = self.steps.current
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- if step == '1':
|
|
|
- form.user = self.request.user
|
|
|
- return form
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.process_step(form)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Hook for modifying the wizard's internal state, given a fully validated
|
|
|
- :class:`~django.forms.Form` object. The Form is guaranteed to have clean,
|
|
|
- valid data.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- This method gives you a way to post-process the form data before the data
|
|
|
- gets stored within the storage backend. By default it just returns the
|
|
|
- ``form.data`` dictionary. You should not manipulate the data here but you
|
|
|
- can use it to do some extra work if needed (e.g. set storage extra data).
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Note that this method is called every time a page is rendered for *all*
|
|
|
- submitted steps.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- The default implementation::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def process_step(self, form):
|
|
|
- return self.get_form_step_data(form)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.process_step_files(form)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- This method gives you a way to post-process the form files before the
|
|
|
- files gets stored within the storage backend. By default it just returns
|
|
|
- the ``form.files`` dictionary. You should not manipulate the data here
|
|
|
- but you can use it to do some extra work if needed (e.g. set storage
|
|
|
- extra data).
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Default implementation::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def process_step_files(self, form):
|
|
|
- return self.get_form_step_files(form)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.render_goto_step(step, goto_step, **kwargs)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- This method is called when the step should be changed to something else
|
|
|
- than the next step. By default, this method just stores the requested
|
|
|
- step ``goto_step`` in the storage and then renders the new step.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- If you want to store the entered data of the current step before rendering
|
|
|
- the next step, you can overwrite this method.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.render_revalidation_failure(step, form, **kwargs)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- When the wizard thinks all steps have passed it revalidates all forms with
|
|
|
- the data from the backend storage.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- If any of the forms don't validate correctly, this method gets called.
|
|
|
- This method expects two arguments, ``step`` and ``form``.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- The default implementation resets the current step to the first failing
|
|
|
- form and redirects the user to the invalid form.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Default implementation::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def render_revalidation_failure(self, step, form, **kwargs):
|
|
|
- self.storage.current_step = step
|
|
|
- return self.render(form, **kwargs)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.get_form_step_data(form)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- This method fetches the data from the ``form`` Form instance and returns the
|
|
|
- dictionary. You can use this method to manipulate the values before the data
|
|
|
- gets stored in the storage backend.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Default implementation::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def get_form_step_data(self, form):
|
|
|
- return form.data
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.get_form_step_files(form)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- This method returns the form files. You can use this method to manipulate
|
|
|
- the files before the data gets stored in the storage backend.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Default implementation::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def get_form_step_files(self, form):
|
|
|
- return form.files
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.render(form, **kwargs)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- This method gets called after the GET or POST request has been handled. You
|
|
|
- can hook in this method to, e.g. change the type of HTTP response.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Default implementation::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def render(self, form=None, **kwargs):
|
|
|
- form = form or self.get_form()
|
|
|
- context = self.get_context_data(form=form, **kwargs)
|
|
|
- return self.render_to_response(context)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.get_cleaned_data_for_step(step)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- This method returns the cleaned data for a given ``step``. Before returning
|
|
|
- the cleaned data, the stored values are revalidated through the form. If
|
|
|
- the data doesn't validate, ``None`` will be returned.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: WizardView.get_all_cleaned_data()
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- This method returns a merged dictionary of all form steps' ``cleaned_data``
|
|
|
- dictionaries. If a step contains a ``FormSet``, the key will be prefixed
|
|
|
- with ``formset-`` and contain a list of the formset's ``cleaned_data``
|
|
|
- dictionaries. Note that if two or more steps have a field with the same
|
|
|
- name, the value for that field from the latest step will overwrite the
|
|
|
- value from any earlier steps.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Providing initial data for the forms
|
|
|
-====================================
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. attribute:: WizardView.initial_dict
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Initial data for a wizard's :class:`~django.forms.Form` objects can be
|
|
|
- provided using the optional :attr:`~WizardView.initial_dict` keyword
|
|
|
- argument. This argument should be a dictionary mapping the steps to
|
|
|
- dictionaries containing the initial data for each step. The dictionary of
|
|
|
- initial data will be passed along to the constructor of the step's
|
|
|
- :class:`~django.forms.Form`::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- >>> from myapp.forms import ContactForm1, ContactForm2
|
|
|
- >>> from myapp.views import ContactWizard
|
|
|
- >>> initial = {
|
|
|
- ... '0': {'subject': 'Hello', 'sender': 'user@example.com'},
|
|
|
- ... '1': {'message': 'Hi there!'}
|
|
|
- ... }
|
|
|
- >>> # This example is illustrative only and isn't meant to be run in
|
|
|
- >>> # the shell since it requires an HttpRequest to pass to the view.
|
|
|
- >>> wiz = ContactWizard.as_view([ContactForm1, ContactForm2], initial_dict=initial)(request)
|
|
|
- >>> form1 = wiz.get_form('0')
|
|
|
- >>> form2 = wiz.get_form('1')
|
|
|
- >>> form1.initial
|
|
|
- {'sender': 'user@example.com', 'subject': 'Hello'}
|
|
|
- >>> form2.initial
|
|
|
- {'message': 'Hi there!'}
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- The ``initial_dict`` can also take a list of dictionaries for a specific
|
|
|
- step if the step is a ``FormSet``.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- The ``initial_dict`` can also be added as a class attribute named
|
|
|
- ``initial_dict`` to avoid having the initial data in the ``urls.py``.

|
|
|
-Handling files
|
|
|
-==============
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. attribute:: WizardView.file_storage
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-To handle :class:`~django.forms.FileField` within any step form of the wizard,
|
|
|
-you have to add a ``file_storage`` to your :class:`WizardView` subclass.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-This storage will temporarily store the uploaded files for the wizard. The
|
|
|
-``file_storage`` attribute should be a
|
|
|
-:class:`~django.core.files.storage.Storage` subclass.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Django provides a built-in storage class (see :ref:`the built-in filesystem
|
|
|
-storage class <builtin-fs-storage>`)::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- from django.conf import settings
|
|
|
- from django.core.files.storage import FileSystemStorage
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- class CustomWizardView(WizardView):
|
|
|
- ...
|
|
|
- file_storage = FileSystemStorage(location=os.path.join(settings.MEDIA_ROOT, 'photos'))
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. warning::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- Please remember to take care of removing old temporary files, as the
|
|
|
- :class:`WizardView` will only remove these files if the wizard finishes
|
|
|
- correctly.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Conditionally view/skip specific steps
|
|
|
-======================================
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. attribute:: WizardView.condition_dict
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The :meth:`~WizardView.as_view` method accepts a ``condition_dict`` argument.
|
|
|
-You can pass a dictionary of boolean values or callables. The key should match
|
|
|
-the steps names (e.g. '0', '1').
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-If the value of a specific step is callable it will be called with the
|
|
|
-:class:`WizardView` instance as the only argument. If the return value is true,
|
|
|
-the step's form will be used.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-This example provides a contact form including a condition. The condition is
|
|
|
-used to show a message form only if a checkbox in the first step was checked.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The steps are defined in a ``forms.py`` file::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- from django import forms
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- class ContactForm1(forms.Form):
|
|
|
- subject = forms.CharField(max_length=100)
|
|
|
- sender = forms.EmailField()
|
|
|
- leave_message = forms.BooleanField(required=False)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- class ContactForm2(forms.Form):
|
|
|
- message = forms.CharField(widget=forms.Textarea)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-We define our wizard in a ``views.py``::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
|
|
|
- from django.contrib.formtools.wizard.views import SessionWizardView
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def show_message_form_condition(wizard):
|
|
|
- # try to get the cleaned data of step 1
|
|
|
- cleaned_data = wizard.get_cleaned_data_for_step('0') or {}
|
|
|
- # check if the field ``leave_message`` was checked.
|
|
|
- return cleaned_data.get('leave_message', True)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- class ContactWizard(SessionWizardView):
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def done(self, form_list, **kwargs):
|
|
|
- return render_to_response('done.html', {
|
|
|
- 'form_data': [form.cleaned_data for form in form_list],
|
|
|
- })
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-We need to add the ``ContactWizard`` to our ``urls.py`` file::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- from django.conf.urls import url
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- from myapp.forms import ContactForm1, ContactForm2
|
|
|
- from myapp.views import ContactWizard, show_message_form_condition
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- contact_forms = [ContactForm1, ContactForm2]
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- urlpatterns = [
|
|
|
- url(r'^contact/$', ContactWizard.as_view(contact_forms,
|
|
|
- condition_dict={'1': show_message_form_condition}
|
|
|
- )),
|
|
|
- ]
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-As you can see, we defined a ``show_message_form_condition`` next to our
|
|
|
-:class:`WizardView` subclass and added a ``condition_dict`` argument to the
|
|
|
-:meth:`~WizardView.as_view` method. The key refers to the second wizard step
|
|
|
-(because of the zero based step index).
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-How to work with ModelForm and ModelFormSet
|
|
|
-===========================================
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. attribute:: WizardView.instance_dict
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-WizardView supports :doc:`ModelForms </topics/forms/modelforms>` and
|
|
|
-:ref:`ModelFormSets <model-formsets>`. Additionally to
|
|
|
-:attr:`~WizardView.initial_dict`, the :meth:`~WizardView.as_view` method takes
|
|
|
-an ``instance_dict`` argument that should contain model instances for steps
|
|
|
-based on ``ModelForm`` and querysets for steps based on ``ModelFormSet``.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Usage of ``NamedUrlWizardView``
|
|
|
-===============================
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. class:: NamedUrlWizardView
|
|
|
-.. class:: NamedUrlSessionWizardView
|
|
|
-.. class:: NamedUrlCookieWizardView
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-``NamedUrlWizardView`` is a :class:`WizardView` subclass which adds named-urls
|
|
|
-support to the wizard. This allows you to have separate URLs for every step.
|
|
|
-You can also use the :class:`NamedUrlSessionWizardView` or :class:`NamedUrlCookieWizardView`
|
|
|
-classes which preselect the backend used for storing information (Django sessions and
|
|
|
-browser cookies respectively).
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-To use the named URLs, you should not only use the :class:`NamedUrlWizardView` instead of
|
|
|
-:class:`WizardView`, but you will also have to change your ``urls.py``.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The :meth:`~WizardView.as_view` method takes two additional arguments:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* a required ``url_name`` -- the name of the url (as provided in the ``urls.py``)
|
|
|
-* an optional ``done_step_name`` -- the name of the done step, to be used in the URL
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-This is an example of a ``urls.py`` for a contact wizard with two steps, step 1 named
|
|
|
-``contactdata`` and step 2 named ``leavemessage``::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- from django.conf.urls import url
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- from myapp.forms import ContactForm1, ContactForm2
|
|
|
- from myapp.views import ContactWizard
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- named_contact_forms = (
|
|
|
- ('contactdata', ContactForm1),
|
|
|
- ('leavemessage', ContactForm2),
|
|
|
- )
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- contact_wizard = ContactWizard.as_view(named_contact_forms,
|
|
|
- url_name='contact_step', done_step_name='finished')
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- urlpatterns = [
|
|
|
- url(r'^contact/(?P<step>.+)/$', contact_wizard, name='contact_step'),
|
|
|
- url(r'^contact/$', contact_wizard, name='contact'),
|
|
|
- ]
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Advanced ``NamedUrlWizardView`` methods
|
|
|
-=======================================
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-.. method:: NamedUrlWizardView.get_step_url(step)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-This method returns the URL for a specific step.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Default implementation::
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- def get_step_url(self, step):
|
|
|
- return reverse(self.url_name, kwargs={'step': step})
|
