Description:

djangocharsleftwidget 1.0.0

django-charsleft-widget is a custom widget that limits the number of characters that can be entered in a textarea field.


Installation
pip install django-charsleft-widget

External dependencies

jQuery - this is not included in the package since it is expected
that in most scenarios this would already be available.




Setup
Add charsleft_widget to INSTALLED_APPS:
INSTALLED_APPS += (
'charsleft_widget',
)
and just include charsleft_widget templates
{% include "charsleft_widget/charsleft_widget_css.html" %} {# Before the closing head tag #}
{% include "charsleft_widget/charsleft_widget_js.html" %} {# Before the closing body tag #}
When deploying on production server, don’t forget to run:
python manage.py collectstatic


Usage
All you need now is to import ClearableInput class and override
field’s widget, for example:
from django.forms.fields import CharField

from charsleft_widget import CharsLeftArea

class Form(forms.Form):

field = CharField(max_length=128, widget=CharsLeftArea)
Please see example application. This application is used to
manually test the functionalities of this package. This also serves as
a good example.
You need only Django 1.4 or above to run that. It might run on older
versions but that is not tested.
