WTForms: dynamically create name and id attributes
My form allows the user to enter a specific number of names for a specific number of basketball teams. These numbers are constantly updated so I need to create a dynamic form.
Let's say I have the following Flask view:
@app.route('/dynamic', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def dynamic():
teams = ['Warriors', 'Cavs']
name_count = 2
return render_template('dynamic.html', teams=teams, name_count=name_count)
And the following form in the HTML template dynamic.html
:
<form method='POST' action='/dynamic'>
{% for team_index in range(teams | count) %}
{% for name_index in range(name_count) %}
<input type="text"
class="form-control"
id="team{{ team_index }}_name{{ name_index }}"
name="team{{ team_index }}_name{{ name_index }}">
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
<form>
Which yields the following form:
<form method='POST' action='/dynamic'>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="team0_name0" name="team0_name0">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="team0_name1" name="team0_name1">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="team1_name0" name="team1_name0">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="team1_name1" name="team1_name1">
<form>
I love the Flask-WTF library so I'm wondering how I can use that (or simply wtforms) to render this form. I'm not sure this is even possible because wtforms requires a hardcoded field name for every input.
Figured this out. I need to use the WTForms Fieldlist
and FormField
enclosures.
class PlayerForm(FlaskForm):
player = Fieldlist(StringField('Player'))
class TeamForm(FlaskForm):
team = Fieldlist(FormField(PlayerForm))
@app.route('/dynamic', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def dynamic():
teams = ['Warriors', 'Cavs']
name_count = 2
# Build dictionary to prepopulate form
prepop_data = {'team': [{'player': ['' for p in range(name_count)]} for team in teams]}
# Initialize form
form = TeamForm(data=prepop_data)
return render_template('dynamic.html', form=form)
And unpacking via jinja2 ( id
and name
attributes on first field = team-0-player-0
):
<form method="POST" action="/dynamic">
{{ form.csrf_token }}
{% for team in form.team %}
{{ team.csrf_token }}
{% for player in team.player %}
{{ render_field(player) }}
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
</form>
