mongogeneric3 0.0.2

An implementation of django class based generic views using mongoengine.

Class based generic views for mongoengine documents.

Note

Not all views Django provides are implemented. If you find mixins or views that are missing, feel free to implement them and provide a pull request :-)

Note 2

Fork from django-mongogeneric with support to python 3

Requirements

• Django >= 1.3

• mongoengine >= 0.6

• django-mongodbforms

Installation

$ pip install mongogeneric3

Implemented views

• DetailView

• ListView

• CreateView

• UpdateView

• DeleteView

Most of the mixins provided by Django to build the above views are also there.

The Django documentation for class based generic views should work for the views provided here. The only difference is that everywhere Django requires model as an attribute, mongogeneric requires a document.

Embedded forms

Additionally to the above views, there is a view and a mixin that makes working with embedded document forms easier (e.g. for comments saved together with a post).

EmbeddedFormMixin

Extends: FormMixin

A mixin class that processes embedded forms, using EmbeddedDocumentForms from django mongodbforms.

embedded_form_class An EmbeddedDocumentForm that is passed into the template context and saved if the request is a POST request and the form is valid.

embedded_context_name Designates the name of the variable to use in the context.

EmbeddedDetailView

Extends: BaseEmbeddedFormMixin, DetailView

Renders a single document and provides a form for an embedded field.
