Use jSignature jQuery plugin in your django projects

Project description

A simple way to use jSignature jQuery plugin in your Django projects.

It provides:

  • A form field and a form widget to handle jquery plugin through a Django form;

  • A model field to store a captured signature;

  • A mixin adding two fields (signature / signature_date) in any of your Django models.

INSTALL

For now:

pip install django-jsignature

USAGE

  • Add jsignature to your INSTALLED_APPS:

# settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'jsignature',
)
  • Use provided form field and widget:

# forms.py
from django import forms
from jsignature.forms import JSignatureField

class SignatureForm(forms.Form):
    signature = JSignatureField()
  • In your template

{{ form.media }}
<form action="." method="POST">
    {% for field in form %}
        {{ field.label_tag }}
        {{ field }}
    {% endfor %}
    <input type="submit" value="Save"/>
    {% csrf_token %}
</form>
  • Render image after form validation:

# views.py
from jsignature.utils import draw_signature
from myapp.forms import SignatureForm

def my_view(request):
    form = SignatureForm(request.POST or None)
    if form.is_valid():
        signature = form.cleaned_data.get('signature')
        if signature:
            # as an image
            signature_picture = draw_signature(signature)
            # or as a file
            signature_file_path = draw_signature(signature, as_file=True)
  • By default, jSignature is made to work outside of admin, requiring that you include the jQuery library in your <head>.

    If you want to use jSignature in the Django admin site, set the JSIGNATURE_JQUERY setting to admin. Otherwise if set to any url pointing to jQuery, it will be automatically included.

CUSTOMIZATION

JSignature plugin options are available in python:

  • Globally, in your settings:

# settings.py
JSIGNATURE_WIDTH = 500
JSIGNATURE_HEIGHT = 200
  • Specifically, in your form:

# forms.py
from jsignature.forms import JSignatureField
from jsignature.widgets import JSignatureWidget

JSignatureField(widget=JSignatureWidget(jsignature_attrs={'color': '#CCC'}))

Available settings are:

  • JSIGNATURE_WIDTH (width)

  • JSIGNATURE_HEIGHT (height)

  • JSIGNATURE_COLOR (color)

  • JSIGNATURE_BACKGROUND_COLOR (background-color)

  • JSIGNATURE_DECOR_COLOR (decor-color)

  • JSIGNATURE_LINE_WIDTH (lineWidth)

  • JSIGNATURE_UNDO_BUTTON (UndoButton)

  • JSIGNATURE_RESET_BUTTON (ResetButton)

IN YOUR MODELS

If you want to store signatures, provided mixin gives a signature and a signature_date that update themselves:

from django.db import models
from jsignature.mixins import JSignatureFieldsMixin

class JSignatureModel(JSignatureFieldsMixin):
    name = models.CharField()

Example project

If you want to have a demo of this package, just use the example project:

git clone https://github.com/fle/django-jsignature.git
cd django-jsignature
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .
cd example_project
./manage.py migrate
./manage.py createsuperuser

Fill the user info, launch django with ./manage.py runserver and head over to http://127.0.0.1:8000/ and login with the credentials your provided.
