wagtail-block-fields

Use Wagtail's StructBlock, ListBlock, and MultipleChoiceBlock as standalone model fields.

Just like StreamField wraps StreamBlock, this package provides:

StructField - wraps a StructBlock
ListField - wraps a ListBlock
MultipleChoiceField - wraps a MultipleChoiceBlock

Installation

pip install wagtail-block-fields

Usage

StructField

from wagtail.blocks import CharBlock, StructBlock
from wagtail_block_fields import StructField

class AddressBlock(StructBlock):
    street = CharBlock()
    city = CharBlock()
    postal_code = CharBlock()

class MyPage(Page):
    address = StructField(AddressBlock())
    
    contact = StructField([
        ('email', CharBlock()),
        ('phone', CharBlock()),
    ])

ListField

from wagtail.blocks import CharBlock
from wagtail_block_fields import ListField

class MyPage(Page):
    tags = ListField(CharBlock())
    categories = ListField(CharBlock(), min_num=1, max_num=5)
    addresses = ListField(AddressBlock())

MultipleChoiceField

from wagtail_block_fields import MultipleChoiceField

COLOR_CHOICES = [
    ("red", "Red"),
    ("green", "Green"),
    ("blue", "Blue"),
]

class MyPage(Page):
    colors = MultipleChoiceField(choices=COLOR_CHOICES)

In templates

<p>{{ page.address.street }}, {{ page.address.city }}</p>

<ul>
{% for tag in page.tags %}
    <li>{{ tag }}</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>

<ul>
{% for color in page.colors %}
    <li>{{ color }}</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>

{% for address in page.addresses %}
    <p>{{ address.street }}, {{ address.city }}</p>
{% endfor %}

Why?

Sometimes you need structured JSON data in a single field without the complexity of StreamField. These fields:

Store data as JSON in a single database column
Provide full Wagtail admin editing UI
Support validation, search indexing, and reference extraction
Work with migrations just like StreamField
Support nesting (e.g., MultipleChoiceField inside a StructField)
