This project is currently unmaintained. If you would like to see development continue, you have two options:
To explore either option, please contact @pydanny.
A Django application for easily converting HTML <textarea>s into rich HTML editors that meet US Government 508/WAC standards. This application has been demonstrated to work just fine with django-crispy-forms (https://github.com/maraujop/django-crispy-forms).
Currently this works as a template tag. We did it this way because control of how editing works is arguably a template issue (i.e. presentation) and not a forms/model issue (i.e. control).
YUI is the default editor due to familiarity, accessiblity and the fact that it's possible to run with entirely off of Yahoo's CDN, avoiding the need to maintain any local resources. CKEditor can be used but will require you to install the CKEditor files in STATIC_URL/ckeditor (see below).
If you want to contribute to django-wysiwyg, please do so from the repository at http://github.com/pydanny/django-wysiwyg.
Note: This may be obvious, but this only works on <textarea>
(models.TextField) and not simple character ( <input>
) fields.
Via pip:
pip install django-wysiwyg
Add 'django_wysiwyg' to your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py:
INSTALLED_APPS = ( ... 'django_wysiwyg', )
If you wish to use CKEditor set the flavor in settings.py:
DJANGO_WYSIWYG_FLAVOR = "ckeditor"
Please note that doing so requires you to make sure the CKEditor distributables are available. You can either:
INSTALLED_APPS
To use TinyMCE, use the following settings:
DJANGO_WYSIWYG_FLAVOR = "tinymce" # or "tinymce_advanced"
The TinyMCE distributables need to be available. You can either:
INSTALLED_APPS
The following values are allowed for the DJANGO_WYSIWYG_FLAVOR
setting:
Other editors can be supported by providing the required templates; see http://django-wysiwyg.readthedocs.org/en/latest/extending.html
There are two template tags: wysiwyg_setup
must be called once per page, preferably in the <head>, to load the JavaScript dependencies. wysiwyg_editor
should be called once per text area, after the text area has been created. A simple example:
{% load wysiwyg %} {% wysiwyg_setup %} <textarea id="foo"></textarea> {% wysiwyg_editor "foo" %}
django-wysiwyg comes with a custom file that serves as a base template for alterations to admin displays. To make an admin field display rich text, do the following:
In your custom app's admin.py file, on the MyModelAdmin class, add change_form_template = 'my-app-name/admin/change_form.html'
. For example:
from django.contrib import admin from fun.models import Playground class PlaygroundAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): change_form_template = 'fun/admin/change_form.html' admin.site.register(Playground, PlaygroundAdmin)
copy django_wysiwyg/templates/my-app-name/admin/change_form.html
to my_app/templates/<my-app-name>/admin/change_form.html
. For example:
cp django_wysiwyg/templates/my-app-name/admin/change_form.html pydanny/templates/fun/admin/change_form.html
Now open the new pydanny/templates/my-app-name/admin/change_form.html
file. You will need to set the fields you want made into rich text editors by adding {% wysiwyg_editor "id_description" %} template tag calls, replacing "id_description" with whatever your form's HTML field is named. For example:
{% extends "admin/change_form.html" %} {% load wysiwyg %} {% block extrahead %} {{ block.super }} {% wysiwyg_setup %} {% endblock %} {% block content %} {{ block.super }} {% wysiwyg_editor "id_description" %} {% endblock %}
django_wysiwyg.clean_html will be exported if you have either html5lib (http://code.google.com/p/html5lib/) or pytidylib installed. Both should install with pip or easy_install, although the later will require having the htmltidy C library installed.
Using clean_html in views is simple:
data = django_wysiwyg.clean_html(data)
In your templates:
{% autoescape off %} {{ content }} {% endautoescape %}
or:
{{ content|safe }}
This should not be used without careful consideration if your content comes from untrusted users
clean_html does not protect against security problems; sanitize_html attempts to do so but is only available with html5lib (tidylib has no equivalent mode) and should currently be considered experimental.
