Hello everybody ! Currently, it's possible to override a model field to override the formfield method. This allows to generate a default form from a model with the ModelForm. This is something that other maintainers of small django apps providing with new form fields might also have seem users struggling with on GitHub or StackOverflow.
In Ponzu framework, they register a function for a model type which returns a form object. Example MarshalEditor function for their Song model in a Ponzu Example: https://github.com/ponzu-cms/examples/blob/master/news/examples/createable/content/song.go#L25 If Django had something similar then there would be no need for model Field.formfield anymore. Also, users would have more freedom to design how they want their default model forms to look like. Thanks in advance for sharing some of your insight. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)" group.
