from django.db import models
from simplemde.fields import SimpleMDEField

class Entry(models.Model):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=250, verbose_name=u'Title')
    content = SimpleMDEField(verbose_name=u'mardown content')

You could set SimpleMDE options in settings.py like this:

SIMPLEMDE_OPTIONS = {
    'placeholder': 'haha',
    'status': False,
    'autosave': {
        'enabled': True
    }
}

for autosave option, you dont need to set it, this plugin will generate uniqueId with python's uuid.uuid4 automatically

After SimpleMDE initialized, you could get SimpleMDE instance from dom element like this:
