visaplan.zope.inputmacros 1.3.0.dev2

Features

• Input elements for Horizontal forms

• readonly fields

• required fields

• labels

Examples

This add-on is currently under development and not yet used on public internet sites.

Documentation

After installing, you may try the view

• formfields_div

in your Zope instance; the macros are “self-documenting”.

Note: Currently it helps to understand German; this view is not (yet?) internationalized.

The macros, however, are language-agnostic; the don’t provide any texts by themselves but use what you throw at them.

Installation

If you use the macros in your own Plone add-on, add it to the dependencies, e.g. in the setup.py file:

setup(...,
    install_requires=[
        ...,
        'visaplan.zope.inputmacros',
        ],
    ...)

Or install visaplan.zope.inputmacros by adding it to your buildout:

[buildout]
...
eggs =
    visaplan.zope.inputmacros

and then running bin/buildout

Requirements

• You’ll need a language interpreter as well; this will be given in default Zope / Plone installations. We don’t specify this here to allow you to choose your own.

  Starting with Plone 5, Chameleon with the z3c.pt compatiblily layer is used; this should work as well.

• To make use of the classes applied to the HTML elements, you’ll need Bootstrap 3; you may use

  • collective.js.bootstrap, perhaps via

  • plonetheme.bootstrap.

  Bootstrap 4 might work as well, but we didn’t try (yet).

• The use of Bootstrap 3 implies the need for jQuery 1.11.2; with Plone 4, you’d probably use plone.app.jquery 1.11.2+.

1.3.0 (unreleased)

• Bootstrap 3 version [tobiasherp]

1.0.0 (unreleased)

• Bootstrap 2 version

  When developed in the first place (and not yet released as a distributable package), the macros had been used with Bootstrap 2. Thus, it would be possible to create a Bootstrap-2-based release; but it is not very likely this to be done.
