If you want to hack django-bootstrap itself, clone this repo and call pip install -e .
.
{% load bootstrap_toolkit %}
# Using a filter
<form action="/url/to/submit/" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
{{ form|as_bootstrap }}
<div class="form-actions">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
</div>
</form>
# Using template tags
<form action="/url/to/submit/" method="post" class="form">
{% csrf_token %}
{% bootstrap_form form layout="vertical" %}
<div class="form-actions">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
</div>
</form>
class TestForm(forms.Form):
date = forms.DateField(
widget=BootstrapDateInput(),
)
title = forms.CharField(
max_length=100,
help_text=u'This is the standard text input',
)
uneditable = forms.CharField(
max_length=100,
help_text=u'I am uneditable and you cannot enable me with JS',
initial=u'Uneditable',
widget=BootstrapUneditableInput()
)
prepended = forms.CharField(
max_length=100,
help_text=u'I am prepended by a P',

django-bootstrap-toolkit is written by Dylan Verheul (dylan@dyve.net).
When building my first Django project with Bootstrap I went looking for available open source applications that connected Django and Bootstrap.
I found https://github.com/tzangms/django-bootstrap-form. The approach to template tags and filters seemed right, but Bootstrap does so much more than just forms.
This is how django-bootstrap-toolkit
started. I used ideas from other Django apps. The code was started from scratch.
You can use this under Apache 2.0. See LICENSE file for details.
