Usage

Add QuillField to the Model class you want to use

# models.py
from django.db import models
from django_quill.fields import QuillField

class QuillPost(models.Model):
    content = QuillField()

1. Django admin

Just register the Model in admin.py of the app.

from django.contrib import admin
from .models import QuillPost

@admin.register(QuillPost)
class QuillPostAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    pass

admin-sample

2. Form

  • Add QuillFormField to the Form class you want to use

  • There are two ways to add CSS and JS files to a template.

    • If there is a Form with QuillField added, add {{ form.media }} to the <head> tag.

      <head>
          {{ form.media }}
      </head>
      
    • Or, directly import the necessary CSS and JS files (highlight.pack.js must be imported first!)

      <head>
          <!-- highlight.js -->
          <link href="{% static 'django_quill/highlight.darcula.min.css' %}" rel="stylesheet">
          <script src="{% static 'django_quill/highlight.pack.js' %}"></script>
      
          <!-- django-quill-editor -->
          <link href="{% static 'django_quill/quill.snow.css' %}" rel="stylesheet">
          <script src="{% static 'django_quill/quill.js' %}"></script>
          <script src="{% static 'django_quill/django_quill.js' %}"></script>
      </head>
      
# forms.py
from django import forms
from django_quill.forms import QuillFormField

class QuillFieldForm(forms.Form):
    content = QuillFormField()
# views.py
from django.shortcuts import render
from .forms import QuillFieldForm

def form(request):
    return render(request, 'form.html', {'form': QuillFieldForm()})
<!-- Template -->
<form action="" method="POST">{% csrf_token %}
    {{ form.content }}
</form>
