Overview
--------
Django JS Choices makes handling of `model field choices`_ in javascript easy.
.. _model field choices: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/fields.html#django.db.models.Field.choices
For example, given the model...
.. code-block:: python
# models.py:
class Student(models.Model):
FRESHMAN = 'FR'
SOPHOMORE = 'SO'
JUNIOR = 'JR'
SENIOR = 'SR'
YEAR_IN_SCHOOL_CHOICES = (
(FRESHMAN, 'Freshman'),
(SOPHOMORE, 'Sophomore'),
(JUNIOR, 'Junior'),
(SENIOR, 'Senior'),
)
year_in_school = models.CharField(
max_length=2,
choices=YEAR_IN_SCHOOL_CHOICES,
default=FRESHMAN,
)
...the choices are accesible in javascript.
.. code-block:: javascript
Choices.pairs("year_in_school");
Result:
.. code-block:: javascript
[
{value: "FR", label: "Freshman"},
{value: "SO", label: "Sophomore"},
{value: "JR", label: "Junior"},
{value: "SR", label: "Senior"}
]
Display values are also accesible.
.. code-block:: javascript
Choices.display("year_in_school", "FR")
Choices.display("year_in_school", {"year_in_school": "FR"})
In both cases the result is
.. code-block:: javascript
"Freshman"
Installation
------------
Install using ``pip``...
.. code-block:: bash
pip install django-js-choices
...or clone the project from GitHub.
.. code-block:: bash
git clone https://github.com/lorinkoz/django-js-choices.git
Add ``'django_js_choices'`` to your ``INSTALLED_APPS`` setting.
.. code-block:: python
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'django_js_choices',
)
Usage as static file
--------------------
First generate static file by
.. code-block:: bash
python manage.py collectstatic_js_choices
If you add apps, models, or change some existing choices,
you may update the choices.js file by running the command again.
The choices files is created with the locale prefix defined in your settings,
but you can pass any locale to the command...
.. code-block:: bash
python manage.py collectstatic_js_choices --locale es
In this case, the generated file will be ``choices-es.js``.
After this add the file to your template.
.. code-block:: html
<script src="{% static 'choices-es.js' %}"></script>
Usage with views
----------------
Include non-cached view...
.. code-block:: python
from django_js_choices.views import choices_js
urlpatterns = [
path("jschoices/", choices_js, name="js_choices"),
]
...or use cache to save some bandwith.
.. code-block:: python
from django_js_choices.views import choices_js
urlpatterns = [
path("jschoices/", cache_page(3600)(choices_js), name="js_choices"),
]
Include javascript in your template.
.. code-block:: html
<script src="{% url 'js_choices' %}" type="text/javascript"></script>
Usage as template tag
---------------------
If you want to generate the javascript code inline, use the template tag.
.. code-block:: html
{% load js_choices %}
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
{% js_choices_inline %}
</script>
Use the choices in javascript
-----------------------------
For every model field with choices, they will be available by the following
names.
.. code-block:: javascript
Choices.pairs("<app_label>_<model_name>_<field_name>")
Choices.pairs("<model_name>_<field_name>")
Choices.pairs("<field_name>")
If any of these names conflict with other model fields,
the conflicting names won't be accessible to prevent ambiguity.
Register other choices not in models
------------------------------------
If you have some choices you want to expose to javascript, and they don't fit into any
model, lets say for example, a list of actions, you can add those too:
.. code-block:: python
from django_js_choices.core import register_choice
POSSIBLE_ACTIONS = (
("go_down", "Go down"),
("go_top", "Go top"),
("nothing", "Stay")
)
...
# register_choice(name: string, choices: list)
register_choice("possible_actions", POSSIBLE_ACTIONS)
- If any of the names of a manually registered choice conflicts with some model fields, the one you manually
registered will be the one you'll access.
- The 2nd argument is the same type that you'd pass to a CharField `choices` argument.
You can only access the ``POSSIBLE_ACTIONS`` choices through the name ``possible_actions``
PLEASE NOTE: You must ensure the file where you are registering your choice is been processed by django
.. code-block:: javascript
Choices.pairs("possible_actions")
Options
-------
Optionally, you can overwrite the default javascript variable 'Choices' used
to access the choices by Django setting.
.. code-block:: python
JS_CHOICES_JS_VAR_NAME = 'Choices'
Optionally, you can change the name of the global object the javascript
variable used to access the choices is attached to. Default is ``this``.
.. code-block:: python
JS_CHOICES_JS_GLOBAL_OBJECT_NAME = 'window'
Optionally, you can disable the minfication of the generated javascript file
by Django setting.
.. code-block:: python
JS_CHOICES_JS_MINIFY = False
Contributing
------------
- PRs are welcome!
- To run the test suite run ``make`` or ``make coverage``. The tests for this
project live inside a small django project called ``sandbox``.
