Installation

Latest version from the GIT repository:

pip install "git+git://github.com/nnseva/django-jsoneditor.git"

Stable version from the PyPi repository:

pip install django-jsoneditor

Note that you should use one of original JSONField packages to provide the JSONField itself.

Configuration

You should append jsoneditor into the INSTALLED_APPS of your settings.py file:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'jsoneditor',
    ...
)

You can use CDN repositories to get JSONEditor javascript code, or host it yourself, instead of the packaged one using the following two settings in your settings.py file:

JSON_EDITOR_JS = 'whatever-your-want.js'
JSON_EDITOR_CSS = 'whatever-your-want.css'

Just look to the http://cdnjs.com/libraries/jsoneditor and select the latest one, like:

JSON_EDITOR_JS = 'https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jsoneditor/4.2.1/jsoneditor.js'
JSON_EDITOR_CSS = 'https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jsoneditor/4.2.1/jsoneditor.css'

Use

You can use the JSONEditor widget for fields in selected Admin classes like

admin.py

from json_field import JSONField
from jsoneditor.forms import JSONEditor
class MyAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    formfield_overrides = {
        JSONField:{ 'widget':JSONEditor },
    }

Or use the original JSONField implementation fixed by the package.

Right now there are three fixed implementations:

Use the fixed implementation instead of the original one.

models.py

from django.db import models

# from json_field import JSONField replaced by:
from jsoneditor.fields.django_json_field import JSONField
# Create your models here.

class TestModel(models.Model):
    my_field = JSONField()

You can access the underlying JSONEditor JS objects in your JavaScript via dictionary named jsonEditors. This dictionary’s keys are the IDs of the fields generated by this component in the form: "id"+[your form field name]+"_json_jsoneditor", e.g. id_template_parameters_json_jsoneditor. The values in the dictionary are the instances of the correspondent JSONEditor objects.
