Use jSignature jQuery plugin in your django projects
Project description
A simple way to use jSignature jQuery plugin in your Django projects.
It provides:
A form field and a form widget to handle jquery plugin through a Django form;
A model field to store a captured signature;
A mixin adding two fields (signature / signature_date) in any of your Django models.
A template filter to render signatures as base64 image urls.
Installation
pip install django-jsignature
Usage
Add jsignature to your INSTALLED_APPS:
# settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'jsignature',
)
Use provided model field (for easy storage):
# models.py
from django.db import models
from jsignature.fields import JSignatureField
class SignatureModel(models.Model):
signature = JSignatureField()
In your form template
{{ form.media }}
<form action="" method="post">
{{ form }}
<input type="submit" value="Save" />
{% csrf_token %}
</form>
Render image from db value in your display template:
{# yourtemplate.html #}
{% load jsignature_filters %}
<img src="{{ obj.signature|signature_base64 }}" alt="{{ obj }}" />
By default, jSignature is made to work outside of admin, requiring that you include the jQuery library in your <head>.
If you want to use jSignature in the Django admin site, set the JSIGNATURE_JQUERY setting to admin. Otherwise if set to any url pointing to jQuery, it will be automatically included.
It is strongly suggested to take example from example_project, which is located in this repo
Customization
JSignature plugin options are available in python:
Globally, in your settings:
# settings.py JSIGNATURE_WIDTH = 500 JSIGNATURE_HEIGHT = 200
Specifically, in your form:
# forms.py
from jsignature.forms import JSignatureField
from jsignature.widgets import JSignatureWidget
JSignatureField(widget=JSignatureWidget(jsignature_attrs={'color': '#CCC'}))
Available settings are:
JSIGNATURE_WIDTH (width)
JSIGNATURE_HEIGHT (height)
JSIGNATURE_COLOR (color)
JSIGNATURE_BACKGROUND_COLOR (background-color)
JSIGNATURE_DECOR_COLOR (decor-color)
JSIGNATURE_LINE_WIDTH (lineWidth)
JSIGNATURE_UNDO_BUTTON (UndoButton)
JSIGNATURE_RESET_BUTTON (ResetButton)
In your models
If you want to store signatures easily, a provided mixin gives a signature and a signature_date that update themselves:
from django.db import models
from jsignature.mixins import JSignatureFieldsMixin
class JSignatureModel(JSignatureFieldsMixin):
name = models.CharField()
In your forms
If you need more precise handling of the form field, you can use it directly:
# forms.py
from django import forms
from jsignature.forms import JSignatureField
class SignatureForm(forms.Form):
signature = JSignatureField()
And upon saving, have direct access to the image with draw_signature()
# views.py
from jsignature.utils import draw_signature
from myapp.forms import SignatureForm
def my_view(request):
form = SignatureForm(request.POST or None)
if form.is_valid():
signature = form.cleaned_data.get('signature')
if signature:
# as an image
signature_picture = draw_signature(signature)
# or as a file
signature_file_path = draw_signature(signature, as_file=True)
Example project
If you want to have a demo of this package, just use the example project:
git clone https://github.com/fle/django-jsignature.git cd django-jsignature python -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate pip install -r requirements.txt pip install -e . cd example_project ./manage.py migrate ./manage.py createsuperuser
Fill the user info, launch django with ./manage.py runserver and head over to http://127.0.0.1:8000/, you can also login to the admin with the credentials your provided.
