Refs #8620.
If we allow any value to remove form fields then we get name clashes
with method names, media classes etc. There was a backwards
incompatibility introduced meaning ModelForm subclasses with declared
fields called media or clean would lose those fields.
Field removal is now only permitted by using the sentinel value None.
The docs have been slightly reworded to refer to removal of fields
rather than shadowing.
Thanks to gcbirzan for the report and initial patch, and several of the
core team for opinions.
Fields can now receive the `label_suffix` attribute, which will override
a form's `label_suffix`.
This enhances the possibility to customize form's `label_suffix`, allowing
to use such customizations while using shortcuts such as
`{{ form.as_p }}`.
Note that the field's own customization can be overridden at runtime by
using the `label_prefix` parameter to `BoundField.label_tag()`.
Refs #18134.
Made explicit lack of microsecond handling by built-in datetime form
fields. Used that explicitness to appropriately nix microsecond
values in bound fields. Thanks Claude Paroz for the review.
Overriding the error messages now works for both unique fields, unique_together
and unique_for_date.
This patch changed the overriding logic to allow customizing NON_FIELD_ERRORS
since previously only fields' errors were customizable.
Refs #20199.
Thanks leahculver for the suggestion.
There was an inconsistency between how the label_tag for forms were
generated depending on which method was used: as_p, as_ul and as_table
contained code to append the label_suffix where as label_tag called on a
form field directly did NOT append the label_suffix. The code for
appending the label_suffix has been moved in to the label_tag code of
the field and the HTML generation code for as_p, as_ul and as_table now
calls this code as well.
This is a backwards incompatible change because users who have added the
label_suffix manually in their templates may now get double label_suffix
characters in their forms.
* Renamed the __unicode__ methods
* Applied the python_2_unicode_compatible decorator
* Removed the StrAndUnicode mix-in that is superseded by
python_2_unicode_compatible
* Kept the __unicode__ methods in classes that specifically
test it under Python 2
* Renamed smart_unicode to smart_text (but kept the old name under
Python 2 for backwards compatibility).
* Renamed smart_str to smart_bytes.
* Re-introduced smart_str as an alias for smart_text under Python 3
and smart_bytes under Python 2 (which is backwards compatible).
Thus smart_str always returns a str objects.
* Used the new smart_str in a few places where both Python 2 and 3
want a str.
cleaned_data is no longer deleted when form validation fails but only
contains the data that did validate.
Thanks to the various contributors to this patch (see ticket).
