django-forms-ext 1.2.1

Extensions for Django's Forms.

These are extensions for Django’s forms.

Currently this contains the following:

Fields

• ForeignKeyChoiceField

  When you have a formset that has a foreign key, Django will fire off a new (identical) query to build the choices for that field for each form in the formset by default. Using this field will allow you to run the query once for the choices and re-use that queryset for each form in the formset.

• CommaSeparatedField

  Django has a comma separated integer field, but not just strings. Stupid, I know… we created one for use with strings

• QuerysetChoiceField

  When you want to build a select box with a queryset but don’t want a model instance when saving, use this thing.

• USSocialSecurityNumberField

  Check that a field conforms to the US Social Security number format. Includes evaluation of invalid number ranges, and invalid pattern rules. Permits Lexis Nexis test SSNs.

Views

• FormSetView

  Django 1.3’s generic views do not include a FormSet view. That’s what this is.
