Widget Reference
================
This is a reference document with a list of the provided widgets and their
arguments.
.. _link-widget:
``LinkWidget``
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This widget renders each option as a link, instead of an actual <input>. It has
one method that you can override for additional customizability.
``option_string()`` should return a string with 3 Python keyword argument
placeholders:
1. ``attrs``: This is a string with all the attributes that will be on the
final ``<a>`` tag.
2. ``query_string``: This is the query string for use in the ``href``
option on the ``<a>`` element.
3. ``label``: This is the text to be displayed to the user.
.. _boolean-widget:
``BooleanWidget``
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This widget converts its input into Python's True/False values. It will convert
all case variations of ``True`` and ``False`` into the internal Python values.
To use it, pass this into the ``widgets`` argument of the ``BooleanFilter``::
active = BooleanFilter(widget=BooleanWidget())
.. _csv-widget:
``CSVWidget``
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This widget expects a comma separated value and converts it into a list of
string values. It is expected that the field class handle a list of values as
well as type conversion.
.. _range-widget:
``RangeWidget``
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This widget is used with ``RangeFilter`` and its subclasses. It generates two
form input elements which generally act as start/end values in a range.
Under the hood, it is django's ``forms.TextInput`` widget and excepts
the same arguments and values. To use it, pass it to ``widget`` argument of
a ``RangeField``::
date_range = DateFromToRangeFilter(widget=RangeWidget(attrs={'placeholder': 'YYYY/MM/DD'}))
