By default, ModelChoiceField and ModelMultipleChoiceField use ModelChoiceIterator to generate their field choices. When iterated, ModelChoiceIterator yields 2-tuple choices containing ModelChoiceIteratorValue instances as the first value element in each choice.

classModelChoiceIterator(field)[source] : The default class assigned to the iterator attribute of ModelChoiceField and ModelMultipleChoiceField. An iterable that yields 2-tuple choices from the queryset.

Topic guide Form Assets (the Media class)

A boolean defining inheritance behavior for Media declarations. By default, any object using a static Media definition will inherit all the assets associated with the parent widget. This occurs regardless of how the parent defines its own requirements.

If you need to perform some more sophisticated manipulation of asset requirements, you can define the media property directly. This is done by defining a widget property that returns an instance of forms.Media.

String paths used to specify assets can be either relative or absolute. If a path starts with /, http:// or https://, it will be interpreted as an absolute path, and left as-is.

Assets may also be object-based, using Script or Stylesheet.

If you only want files of a particular type, you can use the subscript operator to filter out a medium of interest.

Media objects can also be added together. When two Media objects are added, the resulting Media object contains the union of the assets specified by both:

The order in which assets are inserted into the DOM is often important. For example, you may have a script that depends on jQuery.

Reference The form rendering API

Templates for the built-in widgets are located in django/forms/jinja2 and installed apps can provide templates in a jinja2 directory. To use this backend, all the forms and widgets in your project and its third-party apps must have Jinja2 templates.

Reference The form rendering API

Formset templates receive a context from BaseFormSet.get_context(). By default, formsets receive a dictionary with the following values: formset: The formset instance.

Field templates receive a context from BoundField.get_context(). By default, fields receive a dictionary with the following values: field: The BoundField.

Reference The form rendering API

This is a dictionary that contains values like: name value attrs is_hidden template_name Some widgets add further information to the context. For instance, all widgets that subclass Input defines widget['type'] and MultiWidget defines widget['subwidgets'] for looping purposes.
