Hi
I've been using the form wizard for an convention sign-up application.
I felt that the FormWizard is strange. It's not a form class, neither
a view function but something inbetween. I'm going to EuroPython and
wonder if anyone out there would like to join me for a FormWizard-
rewrite-sprint? My suggestion is to rewrite the FormWizard class so
the form validation stuff happens inside the FormWizard instance and
anything view-ish happens in a ordinary view class. This would
eliminate some of the hacks I had to do and make using the FormWizard
easier, I believe. An example:
#forms.py
class MyFormWizard(FormWizard):
"""Subclass of the new, simplified FormWizard"""
forms=[Form01,Form02]
#views.py
def event_registration(request,event_id):
"""A simple view for signing up to an event"""
event=Event.objects.get(id=event_id)
if event.registration_is_open():
wizard=MyFormWizard(request)
if MyFormWizard.done:
#do some registration stuff
#saving etc
return HttpResponseRedirect("/sign_up/thank_you/")
else:
#we're not done yet
current_form=MyFormWizard.get_current_form()
prev_forms=MyFormWizard.get_prev_forms()
step=MyFormWizard.current_step
#etc
return render_to_response(template_name,
{"current_form":current_form}) #etc
else:
return HttpResponseRedirect("/sign_up/event_closed/")
