Django bootstrap form

Twitter Bootstrap for Django Form.

A simple Django template tag to work with Bootstrap

Installation

Install django-bootstrap-form with pip

$ pip install django-bootstrap-form

Usage

Add "bootstrapform" to your INSTALLED_APPS.

At the top of your template load in our template tags:

{% load bootstrap %}

Vertical

Then to render your form:

<form role="form">
    <legend>Form Title</legend>
    {% csrf_token %}
    {{ form|bootstrap }}
    <div class="form-group">
      <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
    </div>
</form>

You can also set class="form-vertical" on the form element.

To use class="form-inline" on the form element, also change the "|boostrap" template tag to "|bootstrap_inline".

Horizontal

It is also possible to create a horizontal form. The form class and template tag are both changed, and you will also need slightly different CSS around the submit button:

<form class="form-horizontal">
    <legend>Form Title</legend>
    {% csrf_token %}
    {{ form|bootstrap_horizontal }}
    <div class="form-group">
      <div class="col-sm-10 col-sm-offset-2">
        <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
      </div>
    </div>
</form>

Custom Layout

For custom layout - use {% bootstrap %} tag - each line in it represent bootstrap .row with fields separted by space:

<form class="form-horizontal">
    <legend>Form Title</legend>
    {% csrf_token %}
    {% bootstrap form %}
        char_field choice_field
        radio_choice multiple_choice multiple_checkbox
        password_field file_fied
        textarea
        boolean_field
    {% endbootstrap %}
    <div class="form-group">
      <div class="col-sm-10 col-sm-offset-2">
        <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
      </div>
