在python中通过django-crispy-forms渲染表单

Question

We need to render forms in python and capture the html output. So far we're resorting to a dirty hack:

def crispy_page(form):                
    mini_template = """                          
        {% load crispy_forms_tags %}                 
        {% crispy form %}                            
    """                                          
    from django.template import Template, Context
    t = Template(mini_template)                  
    c = Context({"form":form})                   
    return t.render(c)

We'd like to just be able to get the rendered output directly from crispy forms somehow, without having to hop through the django templating system. Any thoughts?

Answer 1

These are the lines in the node for the {% crispy %} tag for rendering a form with a helper + layout. I could refactor those out, so that they are easy to be called from outside. The application wasn't thought to be used server side, that's why it's so rigid for that.

It's my understanding that you have some fields of a form A, then fields of another form B and then more fields of form A, is that right?

Version 1.2.0 will come with a render_crispy_form function that solves your issue: https://github.com/maraujop/django-crispy-forms/issues/64#issuecomment-7354910
