I have successfully used django-widget-tweaks add_class as Jinja filter. I put the function into Jinja environment filters, like below.
def environment(**options):
env = Environment(**options)
env.globals.update({
'static': staticfiles_storage.url,
'url': reverse,
'render_field': widget_tweaks.render_field,
})
env.filters.update({
'add_class': widget_tweaks.add_class,
'set_attr': widget_tweaks.set_attr,
})
return env
Now I have new requirement to add attribute "value" of an input field form with model type DateField, I need to pass value of the current date via context variable to Jinja template.
I have tried to find how to pass variable to attribute, many SO article mention about using render_field [1].
I can't use render_field as Jinjaa global function (like snippet above). I need code similar to this:
{{ render_field(form.user_date, value={{ today }}) }}
Is there anyone success using render_field as Jinja function?
I found someone using render_field as Jinja global function [2], but its not using the existing render_field, they create new function. But I still not success with this function.
appreciate for any help.
