Comment (by Dinoboff):
Thanks for the patches. I am new to Python and Django can't really
understand how all that works.
Here the solution for !DateField that I am using; it doesn't rely on
settings.DATE_FORMAT but on the field input_formats property:
{{{
from django import newforms as forms
from django.newforms.fields import DEFAULT_DATE_INPUT_FORMATS
import datetime
DEFAULT_DATE_OUTPUT_FORMATS = DEFAULT_DATE_INPUT_FORMATS[0]
class FormattedTextInput(forms.widgets.TextInput):
"Overrides TextInput to render formatted value."
def render(self, name, value, attrs=None):
formatted_value = None
if value:
formatted_value = self.format_value(value)
return super(FormattedTextInput, self).render(name,
formatted_value, attrs)
class DateFormattedTextInput(FormattedTextInput):
"Renders formatted date."
def __init__(self, format=None, attrs=None):
super(DateFormattedTextInput, self).__init__(attrs)
self.format = format or DEFAULT_DATE_OUTPUT_FORMATS
def format_value(self, value):
if isinstance(value, datetime.date) or isinstance(value,
datetime.datetime):
return value.strftime(self.format)
else:
return value
class DateField(forms.DateField):
widget = DateFormattedTextInput
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(DateField, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.widget.format = self.input_formats[0]
}}}
Hope it helps.
