Changelog

1.6.0

• #160: Django 1.9 support! Thanks to Jonas Haag for the patch.

1.5.2

• #156: The min, max, step attributes for DecimalField and FloatField were localized which can result in invalid values (rendering 0.01 as 0,01 in respective locales). Those attributes won’t get localized anymore. Thanks to Yannick Chabbert for the fix.

1.5.1

• FloatField` now fills in min, max, and step attributes to match the behaviour of DecimalField. Leaving out the step attribute would result in widgets that only allow integers to be filled in (HTML 5 default for step is 1).

1.5.0

• #148: Added support for custom label_suffix arguments in forms and fields.

• The contents in floppyforms/input.html is now wrapped in a {% block content %} for easier extending.

• #70: DecimalField` now fills in min, max, and step attributes for better client side validation. Use the novalidate attribute on your <form> tag to disable HTML5 input validation in the browser. Thanks to caacree for the patch.

1.4.1

• Fixed source distribution to include all files in floppyforms/static/floppyforms/openlayers.

1.4.0

• Every widget is now using its own template. Previously all widgets that are based on the HTML <input> tag used the generic floppyforms/input.html template. Now the widgets each have a custom element for easier customisation. For example CheckboxInput now uses floppyforms/checkbox.html instead of floppyforms/input.html. See Widgets reference for a complete list of available widgets and which templates they use.

• Adjusting the SRIDs used in the GeoDjango widgets to conform with Django 1.7. Thanks to Tyler Tipton for the patch.

• Python 3.2 is now officially supported.

• Django 1.8 is now officially supported. django-floppyforms no longers triggers Django deprecation warnings.

• Adding OpenLayers distribution to django-floppyforms static files in order to better support HTTPS setups when GIS widgets are used (See #15 for more details).

• Fix: python setup.py bdist_rpm failed because of wrong string encodings in setup.py. Thanks to Yuki Izumi for the fix.

• Fix: The CheckboxInput widget did detect different values in Python 2 when given 'False' and u'False' as data. Thanks to @artscoop for the patch.

• Fix: MultipleChoiceField can now correctly be rendered as hidden field by using the as_hidden helper in the template. That was not working previously as there was no value set for MultipleChoiceField.hidden_widget.

1.3.0

• DateInput widget renders hardcoded “%Y-%m-%d” format. We don’t allow custom formats there since the “%Y-%m-%d” format is what browsers are submitting with HTML5 date input fields. Thanks to Bojan Mihelac for the patch.

• Adding supports_microseconds attribute to all relevant widget classes. Thanks to Stephen Burrows for the patch.

• Using a property for Widget.is_hidden attribute on widgets to be in conformance with Django 1.7 default widget implementation.

• The docs mentioned that the current ModelForm behaviour in floppyforms.__future__ will become the default in 1.3. This is postpone for one release and will be part of 1.4.

1.2.0

• Subclasses of floppyforms.models.ModelForm did not convert widgets of form fields that were automatically created for the existing model fields into the floppyform variants. This is now changed, thanks to a patch by Stephen Burrows.

  Previously you had to set the widgets your self in a model form. For example you would write:

  import floppyforms as forms
  
  class ProfileForm(forms.ModelForm):
      class Meta:
          model = Profile
          widgets = {
              'name': forms.TextInput,
              'url': forms.URLInput,
              ...
          }

  Now this is done automatically. But since this is a kind-of backwardsincompatible change, you need to use a special import:

  import floppyforms.__future__ as forms
  
  class ProfileForm(forms.ModelForm):
      class Meta:
          model = Profile

  This feature will become the default behaviour in floppyforms 2.0.

  See the documentation for more information: http://django-floppyforms.readthedocs.org/en/latest/usage.html#modelforms

• If you added an attribute with value 1 to the attrs kwargs (e.g. {'value': 1}, you would get no attribute value in the rendered html (e.g. value instead of value="1"). That’s fixed now, thanks to Viktor Ershov for the report.

• All floppyform widget classes now take a template_name argument in the __init__ and render method. Thanks to Carl Meyer for the patch.

1.1.1

• Fix for Django 1.6

• Fix for GIS widgets on Django 1.4 and some versions of GEOS.

1.1

• Added GenericIPAddressField.

• Django 1.5 and Python 3.3 support added.

• Django 1.3 support dropped.

• GIS widgets switched to stable OpenLayers release instead of a dev build.

• Fixed Textarea widget template to work with a non-empty TEMPLATE_STRING_IF_INVALID setting. Thanks to Leon Matthews for the report.

• Fixed context handling in widget rendering. It didn’t take care of popping the context as often as it was pushed onto. This could cause strange behaviour in the template by leaking variables into outer scopes. Thanks to David Danier for the report.

• Added missing empty choice for selectboxes in SelectDateWidget. Thanks fsx999 for the report.

• IntegerField now automatically passes its min_value and max_value (if provided) to the NumberInput widget.

• Added basic support for <datalist> elements for suggestions in Input widgets.

• date, datetime and time inputs are not localized anymore. The HTML5 spec requires the rendered values to be RFC3339-compliant and the browsers are in charge of localization. If you still want localized date/time inputs, use those provided by Django or override the _format_value() method of the relevant widgets.

1.0

• cleaned up the behaviour of attrs

• compatible with Django 1.3 and 1.4

• <optgroup> support in select widgets

• Select widgets: renamed choices context variable to optgroups. This is backwards-incompatible: if you have custom templates for Select widgets, they need to be updated.

• get_context() is more reliable

• Added form, formrow, formfield, formconfig and widget template tags.

• Added template-based form layout system.

• Added ability to render widgets with the broader page context, for instance for django-sekizai compatibility.

0.4

• All widgets from Django have their floppyforms equivalent

• Added widgets for GeoDjango
