Changing the ``form``
|
||||||
|
---------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
By default, when you use ``modelformset_factory``, a model form will
|
||||||
|
be created using :func:`~django.forms.models.modelform_factory`.
|
||||||
|
Often, it can be useful to specify a custom model form. For example,
|
||||||
|
you can create a custom model form that has custom validation::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
class AuthorForm(forms.ModelForm):
|
||||||
|
class Meta:
|
||||||
|
model = Author
|
||||||
|
fields = ('name', 'title')
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def clean_name(self):
|
||||||
|
# custom validation for the name field
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Then, pass your model form to the factory function::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
AuthorFormSet = modelformset_factory(Author, form=AuthorForm)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It is not always necessary to define a custom model form. The
|
||||||
|
``modelformset_factory`` function has several arguments which are
|
||||||
|
passed through to ``modelform_factory``, which are described below.
