{% load inplace_edit %}
{% inplace_static %}
In your settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = (
'django.contrib.auth',

urlpatterns = patterns('',
#...#

)
If you use the date adaptor or datetime adaptor also:
js_info_dict = {
'packages': ('django.conf',),
}
urlpatterns = patterns('',
#...#
(r'^inplaceeditform/', include('inplaceeditform.urls')),
(r'^jsi18n$', 'django.views.i18n.javascript_catalog', js_info_dict),
)
Basic usage
{% inplace_edit "OBJ.FIELD_NAME" %}
{% inplace_edit "OBJ.FIELD_NAME|FILTER1|FILTER2|...|FILTERN" %}
Examples
{% load inplace_edit %}
<html>
<head>
...
<script src="{{ STATIC_URL }}js/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

{% inplace_edit "content.name" %}
...
<div class="description">
{% inplace_edit "content.date_initial|date:'d m Y'" %}
{% inplace_edit "content.description|safe" %}
</div>
<div class="body">

How to use it
Just pass the cursor above the field and double click, authenticated with a super user
Advanced usage
- Inplaceedit has some optionals parameters that the templatetag can receive to change its behavior:
auto_height: Adapt the height’s widget to the tag container.
auto_width: Adapt the width’s widget to the tag container.
class_inplace: Add a class to edit inline form.
tag_name_cover: The value is covered for a span. But it’s possible to change it.
filters_to_show: The server filters the value before to save. List separate for “|”
loads: If you use some filter that need a load, you set this option. List separate for “:”
Examples
{% inplace_edit "content.description|safe" auto_height=1, auto_width=1 %}
{% inplace_edit "content.title" class_inplace="titleFormEditInline" %}
{% inplace_edit "content.description|safe" filters_to_show="safe|truncatewords_html:30", tag_name_cover="div" %}
{% inplace_edit "content.description|my_filter" loads="my_template_tag" %}
Adaptor API
You can create a adaptor to work with inplace edit form, the behavior is fully customizable. To default inplaceedit has 8 adaptors. These use the api, overwriting some methods for them.
First step
In your settings:
ADAPTOR_INPLACEEDIT = {'myadaptor': 'app_name.fields.MyAdaptor'}
In app_name.fields.MyAdaptor:
class MyAdaptor(BaseAdaptorField):
@property
def name(self):
return 'myadaptor'
Python API
loads_to_post: It returns the value of the request (normally request.POST)
classes: Classes of tag cover. By default “inplaceedit” and “myadaptorinplaceedit”
get_config: Preprocessed of the configuration. By default, it does nothing.
get_form_class: It returns the form class.
get_form: It returns a instace of form class.
get_field: It returns a field of instance of form class.
render_value: It returns the render of the value. If you write {% inplace_edit “obj.name|filter1” %} it returns something like this {{ obj.name|filter1 }}.
render_value_edit: It returns the render value if you can edit. It returns by default the same of “render_value”, but if the value is None call to empty_value
empty_value: It returns an empty value for this adaptor. By default, ‘Dobleclick to edit’.
render_field: It returns the render of form, with a field.
render_media_field: It returns the media (scripts and css) of the field.
render_config: It returns the render of config.
can_edit: It returns a boolean that indicate if this user can edit inline this content or not.
get_value_editor: It returns a clean value to be saved in DB.
save: Save the value in DB.
get_auto_height: Returned if the field rendered with auto height
get_auto_width: Returned if the field rendered with auto width
treatment_height: Special treatment to widget’s height.
treatment_width: Special treatment to widget’s width.
If you want to use own options in your adaptor, you can do it. These options will be in self.config in the adaptor.
{% inplace_edit "obj.field_name" my_opt1="value1", my_opt2="value2" %}
JavaScript API
Exist there hooks,
getValue: if the value is componing for various widgets, you can set the function getValue, to these DOM elements. Something like this:
<script type="text/javascript"> (function($){ $(document).ready(function () { function myGetValue(form, field_id) { return ""Something"" } $(".applyMyAdaptor").data("getValue", myGetValue); }); })(jQuery); </script>applyFinish: if you need/want to do some action after the value be saved. Something like this:
<script type="text/javascript"> (function($){ $(document).ready(function () { function myApplyFinish() { return ""Something"" } $(".applyMyAdaptor").data("applyFinish", myApplyFinish); }); })(jQuery); </script>cancelFinish: if you need/want to do some action after the cancel the edit. Something like this:
<script type="text/javascript"> (function($){ $(document).ready(function () { function myCancelFinish() { return ""Something"" } $(".applyMyAdaptor").data("cancelFinish", myCancelFinish); }); })(jQuery); </script>
For example the adaptor datetime use these hooks.
Overwriting a default adaptor
To overwrite a adaptor add in your settings something like this:
ADAPTOR_INPLACEEDIT = {'text': 'app_name.fields.MyAdaptorText'}
For this case you overwrite the AdaptorText with MyAdaptorText.
Permission Adaptor API
By default you can inline edit a field if you are authenticated with a superuser. But it’s customizable:
Overwriting the default permission adaptor
This package have two inplementations:
SuperUserPermEditInline (by default): Only you can edit if you are super user
AdminDjangoPermEditInline: Yo can edit the content if you have a permission edit for that model. If you want enabled this, write in your settings:
ADAPTOR_INPLACEEDIT_EDIT = 'inplace_edit.perms.AdminDjangoPermEditInline'
You can create a specify adaptor. MyAdaptorEditInline is a class with a single class method, this method receives a adaptor field
# in your settings
ADAPTOR_INPLACEEDIT_EDIT = 'app_name.perms.MyAdaptorEditInline'
# in app_name.perms
class MyAdaptorEditInline(object):
@classmethod
def can_edit(cls, adaptor_field):
return True # All user can edit
Example
class MyAdaptorEditInline(object):
@classmethod
def can_edit(cls, adaptor_field):
user = adaptor_field.request.user
obj = adaptor_field.obj
can_edit = False
if user.is_anonymous():
pass
elif user.is_superuser:
can_edit = True
else:
can_edit = has_permission(obj, user, 'edit')
return can_edit
Testing
This django application has been tested on severals browsers: Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari and Internet Explorer on versions 7 and 8, to ckeck javascript actions.
Also, exists a django project to test inplaceeditform. This project can use as demo project, because inplaceeditform is totally adapted to it.
