django select select-multiple django-admin jquery-ui

django-ajax-selects's Introduction

Edit `ForeignKey`, `ManyToManyField` and `CharField` in Django Admin using jQuery UI AutoComplete

This Django app glues Django Admin, jQuery UI together to enable searching and managing ForeignKey and ManyToMany relationships.

At the time it was created Django did not have any way to do this, and this solution glued together some technologies of the day.

If you are building a new project then you should not use this.

Django has built in support now: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.autocomplete_fields

Documentation

http://django-ajax-selects.readthedocs.org/en/latest/

Installation

pip install django-ajax-selects

Add the app:

# settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'ajax_select',  # <-   add the app
    ...
)

Include the urls in your project:

# urls.py
from django.urls import path
from django.conf.urls import include

from django.conf.urls.static import static
from django.contrib import admin
from django.conf import settings
from ajax_select import urls as ajax_select_urls

admin.autodiscover()

urlpatterns = [
    # This is the api endpoint that django-ajax-selects will call
    # to lookup your model ids by name
    path("admin/lookups/", include(ajax_select_urls)),
    path("admin/", admin.site.urls),
] + static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)

Quick Usage

Define a lookup channel:

# yourapp/lookups.py
from ajax_select import register, LookupChannel
from .models import Tag

@register('tags')
class TagsLookup(LookupChannel):

    model = Tag

    def get_query(self, q, request):
        return self.model.objects.filter(name__icontains=q).order_by('name')[:50]

    def format_item_display(self, item):
        return u"<span class='tag'>%s</span>" % item.name

Add field to a form:

# yourapp/forms.py
from ajax_select.fields import AutoCompleteSelectMultipleField

class DocumentForm(ModelForm):

    class Meta:
        model = Document

    tags = AutoCompleteSelectMultipleField('tags')

This will now work in the Django Admin.

To use a form outside, be sure to include form.media on the template where you place the form:

{{ form.media }}
{{ form }}

Read the full documention here: outside of the admin

Fully customizable

Customize search query
Query other resources besides Django ORM
Format results with HTML
Customize styling
Customize security policy
Add additional custom UI alongside widget
Integrate with other UI elements elsewhere on the page using the javascript API
Works in Admin as well as in normal views

Assets included by default

https://jquery.com/ 3.7.1 https://jqueryui.com/ 1.13.2

Customize jquery

To use a custom jQuery UI theme you can set:

# settings.py
AJAX_SELECT_JQUERYUI_THEME = "/static/path-to-your-theme/jquery-ui-min.css"

https://jqueryui.com/themeroller/

If you need to use a different jQuery or jQuery UI then turn off the default assets:

# settings.py
AJAX_SELECT_BOOTSTRAP = False

and include jquery and jquery-ui yourself, making sure they are loaded before the Django admin loads.

Compatibility

Django >=3.2
Python >=3.10

django-ajax-selects's Issues

Document the use in template for 'quick installation'

Hi,
I have been trying to go through the quick installation process to see if I could see myself using this project, and it turns out it is not complete: you do not explain how to put the forms in the templates. This is really too bad as it turns people away from going deeper into your app.
Could you please complete it?
Thanks in advance.

Add popup broken for custom AdminSites

The add popup feature only works for models registered with the default AdminSite.

E.g.

from django.contrib.admin import ModelAdmin, site, sites
from myapp import models


class MyModelAdmin(ModelAdmin):
    # ...
    pass
site.register(models.MyModel, MyModelAdmin)  # This one can use popup add

# # # # # # # #

class MyCustomAdminSite(sites.AdminSite):
    # ...
    pass
custom_admin_site = MyCustomAdminSite(name='custom_admin')

class MyOtherModelAdmin(ModelAdmin):
    # ...
    pass
custom_admin_site.register(models.MyOtherModel, MyOtherModelAdmin)  # This one cannot use popup add

Bug in ajax_selects.js (addKiller function call)

I might have found a bug in the ajax_selects.js file on line 18:

addKiller(ui.item.repr);

instead of

addKiller(ui.item.repr, ui.item.pk);

This causes an invalid id on the trash icon: id="kill_undefinedid_owner" when adding a new item.

parameters to triggers

The triggers don't provide any information on the event that has occurred.

Please consider something like this patch, which provides the id and the repr of the object being added or killed:

non operation with mongodb

Hi there

I have been using ajax-selects for a few days now, and I am very impressed.

I am also investigating django integration with mongodb via django-nonrel. There are a lot of django work that just don't work with this, ajax-selects is one of them. However after investigating this boiled down to the fact that it expects the 'id' field of models to be an integer, however the id's used in mongodb are strings, of the type '4f4de9d23cc2a30a23000010'.

After looking through your code I found that it is explicitly casting the id returned to, in one case a long:
ajax_select/fields.py, line 77,

return long(got)

and to an int:
ajax_select/init.py line 49

ids = [int(id) for id in ids]

After I made the mods, which removed the casting to integers it then succesfully worked with mongodb via the admin interface, with one caveat, after you have entered a value via the make_ajax_form interface and re-enter the model entry again via the admin interface it doesn't show the value that had been chosen, it is just blank, even though if you check the contents of the database it is still there. My guess the prefetch of the admin is also sensitive to integers.

I understand if you think it is not worth supporting, I am merely reporting my observation in case you do. My interest in ajax-selects stems from trying to traverse a very big database that mongodb is designed to handle.

Error on Pop-Up

I have a ajax-select field, which has the option to add a value at it's right. The pop-up with the form opens, and I try to save it.

I there is an error while saving the data, then the following exception take place:

That seems to be a problem with the line that reads:

en_help = help_text.translate('en')

which doesn't seem to be valid Python: http://docs.python.org/library/string.html#string.translate

I would submit a patch but I'm not sure exactly what was even intended here.

"Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'autocomplete' of undefined"

Dear All,

I am getting an error upon using django_ajax_select. This happens as soon as the page is loaded and the error i seen in chrome Javascript console.

The error is indicated to be on this line of ajax_select.js

var proto = $.ui.autocomplete.prototype,
initSource = proto._initSource;

The error is "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'autocomplete' of undefined"

I am using jquery-1.11.2.min.js and I have also includes the js that come with django_ajax_select viz
bootstrap.js and ajax_select.js

Please help. Below is the chrome screenshot.

Field appers duplicated when marked as readonly in admin

I have a field that can only be selected upon creation, so I am using the technique described in http://stackoverflow.com/a/4346448/578749 to make it readonly when editing:

class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    #...
    def get_readonly_fields(self, request, obj=None):
        if obj: # editing an existing object
            return self.readonly_fields + ('my_ajax_field')
        return self.readonly_fields

The problem is that the AJAX field, from a form created with make_ajax_form, appears duplicated when changed to readonly like this.

Please add a change trigger to the target.

Hi there,

I'm trying to do some ajax work after your field gets filled but changes in value of hidden elements don't automatically fire the .change() event. Would it be possible to change your triggers from 'added' and 'killed' to simply 'changed'? I'm not sure where 'added' or 'killed' is documented as standard event types but I couldn't find any references http://api.jquery.com/category/events/ [here] or http://www.quirksmode.org/dom/events/ [here].

Thanks!!

Provide option to limit number of selected items for AutoCompleteSelectMultipleField

Something like

from ajax_select.fields import AutoCompleteSelectMultipleField

class MyForm(models.Form):
    field = AutoCompleteSelectMultipleField('lookup', limit_to=10)

And then widget will not allow me to select more than 10 lookup items.

DeprecationWarning django.utils.simplejson

With django 1.6:

/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ajax_select/fields.py:12: DeprecationWarning: django.utils.simplejson is deprecated; use json instead.

search_fields like in ModelAdmin

I think search_field should be replaced by a search_fields that works like the one in the ModelAdmin. It would make django-ajax-selects more consistent with the django API.

Here is how it can be achieved. I mostly adapted code from django/contrib/admin/views/main.py. I also added support for ordering.

import operator
from django.db.models import Q
from django.contrib.admin.util import lookup_needs_distinct
from ajax_select import LookupChannel

class LookupChannelExtended(LookupChannel):

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        self.lookup_opts = self.model._meta
        self.root_query_set = self.model.objects.all()
        super(LookupChannel, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)

    def get_ordering(self, request, queryset):
        """
        Returns the list of ordering fields. First we check the object's default
        ordering. Then, any manually-specified ordering overrides anything.
        Finally, a deterministic order is guaranteed by ensuring the primary key
        is used as the last ordering field.
        """
        ordering = []
        if self.lookup_opts.ordering:
            ordering = self.lookup_opts.ordering
        if hasattr(self, 'ordering'):
            ordering += list(self.ordering)
        # Ensure that the primary key is systematically present in the list of
        # ordering fields so we can guarantee a deterministic order across all
        # database backends.
        pk_name = self.lookup_opts.pk.name
        if not (set(ordering) & set(['pk', '-pk', pk_name, '-' + pk_name])):
            # The two sets do not intersect, meaning the pk isn't present. So
            # we add it.
            ordering.append('pk')

        return ordering

    def get_query(self, query, request):
        qs = self.root_query_set
        use_distinct = False

        # Set ordering.
        ordering = self.get_ordering(request, qs)
        qs = qs.order_by(*ordering)

        # Apply keyword searches.
        def construct_search(field_name):
            if field_name.startswith('^'):
                return "%s__istartswith" % field_name[1:]
            elif field_name.startswith('='):
                return "%s__iexact" % field_name[1:]
            elif field_name.startswith('@'):
                return "%s__search" % field_name[1:]
            else:
                return "%s__icontains" % field_name

        if self.search_fields and query:
            orm_lookups = [construct_search(str(search_field))
                           for search_field in self.search_fields]
            for bit in query.split():
                or_queries = [Q(**{orm_lookup: bit})
                              for orm_lookup in orm_lookups]
                qs = qs.filter(reduce(operator.or_, or_queries))
            if not use_distinct:
                for search_spec in orm_lookups:
                    if lookup_needs_distinct(self.lookup_opts, search_spec):
                        use_distinct = True
                        break

        if use_distinct:
            return qs.distinct()
        else:
            return qs

You can now do something like this:

class MemberLookup(LookupChannelExtended):
    model = Individual
    search_fields = ('first_name', 'middle_name', 'last_name')
    ordering = ('last_name', 'first_name')

Support reverse relationships

hi and thanks for the great project! I'd like to be able to query from the M2M on the other side of the relationship in the admin which doesn't currently work in master. Give me a second and I'll put up a patch.

init() got an unexpected keyword argument 'mimetype'

The error is

The complete stack trace is as below. What could i do to resolve this error? Could this be an issue in Django?

Is it ok that a GET is called instead of a POST. Does django_ajax_select does a GET and not POST? Please help.

'set' object does not support indexing

Hello.

I'm trying to use make_ajax_field() for the autocompletion. I have followed the installation instruction as well as the example app thoroughly. I keep getting the error 'set' object does not support indexing. What is this related to? Any insight would be very helpful.

These are my settings and codes:

Does not work with jquery-ui >= 1.10.2

I haven't yet had a chance to investigate in full detail, but noticed when I upgraded to:

http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js
http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.2/jquery-ui.js

I get the error:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property '_renderItem' of undefined

As this same code works fine with previous versions of jquery and jquery-ui, I am assuming that something has changed to break this.

Alternatively, I might have broken something too... Need to double check.

How do you pass a class name for the addKiller

Hi there,

I'm curious to know how you could pass a div class id to the addKiller function?

Document how to use an ajax field in a ListFilter in admin

There's no example or documentation for how to use django-ajax-selects for a list_filter in the admin. Is this because it's trivial or because it's not supported? : )

Fire the change event on selection

In ajax_select.js, adding the line:

$this.change();

after

$this.val(ui.item.pk);

allows other js elements in the forms to pick up on the changed value. This makes smart_select play nice, for example.

AutoCompleteSelectField has no attribute 'limit_choices_to' in Django 1.7

This error has just happened in the admin.
My code for my ModelAdmin is

form = make_ajax_form([...])

While this worked in Django 1.6, 1.7 has introduced a

limit_choices_to = formfield.limit_choices_to

which is called on the AutoCompleteSelectField (at least), although it has no limit_choices_to attribute. I added this line at the end

f.limit_choices_to = None

in make_ajax_field and it fixes the problem, but I don't know if this is the way to go.

Issue with Ajax-Search on Media-Fields

Hi,
I've got an Issue if I try to use django-ajax-selects on a media-field.
Django breaks with following stack-trace:

I found a fix for this issue in the old Bugtracking on google code( https://code.google.com/p/django-ajax-selects/issues/detail?id=80) , but though it works I am not totally happy with it and still do not thoroughly understand the underlying problem.
Also I would not be surprised, if this issue is in my code and I'm kind of 'holding it wrong' :-(

Set width of jquery autocomplete widget

The autocompletion options seem match the width of the width of the text box by default: http://i.imgur.com/6YoCj.png

I can't figure out how to make it wider (like in the screenshot from the README.md) besides some ugly css hacks (that involve !important, yuck)...

It looks like the best way to do it in real life is sort of hackish, through the open event: http://jsfiddle.net/salman/gP7Ns/ However, specifying a javascript function through plugin_options isn't possible (it just comes out as an escaped string).

Suggested fix: not sure... Maybe an option to include that open hackage with the width as a parameter...

can_add isn't working in lookups

Hi,
I'm running django 1.2.7 and version 1.2.5 of django-ajax-selects.

The problem is that no plus button is showing next to my autoselect.

I overrode can_add to return True in my functioning LookupChannel (HTML formatting is being applied) which didn't change anything.

I used the following workaround to force the plus button.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7475170/django-ajax-select-add-button

dj1.4 Error importing template source loader django.template.loaders.filesystem.load_template_source:

Did default installation using ./install.sh. With Django 1.4 shows a problem akin to this - vintasoftware/django-templated-email#11 but does not get fixed on removal of that or other template loaders.

So tried with Django 1.3 and while admin page loads, logging in fails with below error:
ValueError at /admin/
too many values to unpack

algo, salt, hsh = enc_password.split('$')

The password used was 9 lettered with 3 digits in it. So changed it to 'dog' and it showed that 'auth_message' did not exist. That must be due to the 1.4 to 1.3 downgrade. So ran syncdb again and there I could log-in.

So while I did get it to work, you might want to add this somewhere for 1.4 compatibility or change install.sh to deploy only django 1.3 unless you can figure out what is causing the template loader issues or password issue.

fixed bug: AutoCompleteSelectMultipleField does not honor 'widget' parameter

AutoCompleteSelectMultipleField overwrites its kwargs['widget'] with its default AutoCompleteSelectMultipleWidget so there it's not possible to customize the widget in your form definition.

This seems to be a bug since the other ajax-select fields: AutoCompleteSelectWidget and AutoCompleteField both allow substituting the default widget with your own, just like django. Widget substitution is useful especially when you want to change placeholder attribute or CSS attributes of the default widget.

I have fixed it in this commit taivo@a24dc27 but not sure how to submit a second pull request since I've already have one in the pipeline.

Last but not least, I find this package to be extremely useful. I wasted a lot of time getting autocomplete done on an adhoc basis, and even more time trying generalize all the adhoc code. Good thing I found ajax-select before going too far into reinventing the wheel. So thanks for maintaining this tool!

AutoCompleteSelectField breaks when using localization and long ids

I get "invalid literal for long() with base 10: '3 498'" when creating form with initial data for the AutoCompleteSelectField field. Works ok, if I enter the data again into the field. If left with initial value.

Inline won't work with new lines (SOLVED)

Hi,
Recently I've been having troubles with django-ajax-selects and inline forms.
The problem was, that when I add a new line it ajax-selects wont bind to it.
I spent hours for searching the cause in the internet, and maybe fixes. I only found that this issue was once a problem, but now resolved (and from the documentation django-ajax-selects should work with inlines).
So, I started debugging the code.
What I found is that django-ajax-selects DOES bind new lines when you click the 'add another' link, and this code is in the $(document).ready(); function.
However, by alerting one line above this call I saw that the 'add another' link was not yet built. So the binding to the link won't catch.
What I did to fix this issue was to to change the 'on' event to 'delegate' so future selectors (like our 'add another') would be bound.

In ajax_selects.js change lines 206-209 with these:

$('body').delegate( '.inline-group ul.tools a.add, .inline-group div.add-row a, .inline-group .tabular tr.add-row td a', 'click', function() {
$(window).trigger('init-autocomplete');
});

AutoComplete and AutoCompleteSelect renders fine but AutoCompleteMultipleSelect isnt working

I have been trying to get a m2m field to autocomplete, after upgrading from 1.1 to 1.2.5 but while i can get the autocomplete functionality if i render the field as AutoComplete or AutoCompleteSelect there is no gif/options for AutoCompleteSelectMultiple. I am not sure where I can troubleshoot whats happening here.

Custom form

Hi,

I am trying to make this work with a custom form and I am having some difficulties...

Here is my forms.py:

class MemberTeamForm(forms.ModelForm):

member = make_ajax_field(MemberTeam, 'member', 'members', help_text=None)

class Meta:
    model = MemberTeam

lookups.py:
class MemberLookup(LookupChannel):

model = Member

def get_query(self, q, request):
    return Member.objects.filter(Q(first_name__icontains=q) | Q(last_name__icontains=q)).order_by('last_name', 'first_name')

def get_result(self, obj):
    return unicode(obj)

def format_match(self, obj):
    return self.format_item_display(obj)

def format_item_display(self, obj):
    return "%s, %s" % (escape(obj.last_name), escape(obj.first_name))

Here is an example of the field I get in the template:

But for some reason, I don't get any suggestions when I type...

Am I missing something?

Thanks,
Ara

Issues when using django-admin-sortable

My apologies as I'm pretty useless when it comes to the front end but there's an odd problem when running with django-admin-sortable. I don't have a fully understanding of the problem yet.

I'll update when I can get more details.

deck area

could not show the deck area. how to display them? do i need to add some extra information to show them?

callbacks for select doesn't work

It seems that when a choice is selected from the drop down a callback "added" should be triggered, but I'm unable to bind my code to it, neither binding like this:
$("#{{ html_id }}").bind('added', function(){})

or this:
$("#{{ html_id }}_on_deck").bind('added', function(){})

Is this by design or this a bug? Or am I doing smth wrong?

Custom validation with django-ajax-selects

How can I add custom validation in my admin form using ajax-selects? E.g., I need to validate unique together (Django 1.6 don't raise exception in this case, but I think 1.7 do). When I use a custom form, the + button doesn't work.

Initial fields are duplicated when new row added.

This plugin initializes the field using a data-plugin-options attribute, which is a stringified object with a property called initial. The initial array is used to populate the field when instantiated. The bug arises when any new row is added, which kicks off the same javascript that initializes the regions field.

Click handler that will trigger when a new row is added: https://github.com/crucialfelix/django-ajax-selects/blob/master/ajax_select/static/ajax_select/js/ajax_select.js#L98-L102.
Offending stanza that re-appends the initial values every time: https://github.com/crucialfelix/django-ajax-selects/blob/master/ajax_select/static/ajax_select/js/ajax_select.js#L98-L102.

Perhaps after initialization, an attribute could be added to indicate the element should not be initialized again.

Support Non-integer Primary Keys (mongodb etc)

If model uses a non-int PK e.g.

id = UUIDField("My UUID", auto=True, unique=True, primary_key=True)

the lookup breaks

Beginning fields.py line 81: return long(got)

Pass `request` to `LookupChannel` methods, make overriding easier

It would be great to have access to the request and the query in LookupChannel methods, for example:

def format_match(self, obj, request, query):
    """ (HTML) formatted item for displaying item in the dropdown """
    html = unicode(obj)
    html = html.replace(query, "<strong>%s</strong>" % query)
    return html

it would also be nice if the ajax_lookup view was a class-based view that got the results to simplejson from a method, making it easier to override instead of replace:

def get(self, *args, **kwargs):
    ...
    return HttpResponse(simplejson.dumps([self.get_item_context(item, query) for item in instances])

def get_item_context(self, item, query):
    return {
        'pk': unicode(getattr(item,'pk',None)),
        'value': lookup.get_result(item, self.request, query),
        'match' : lookup.format_match(item, self.request, query),
        'repr': lookup.format_item_display(item, self.request, query)
    }

Any chance?

Support lookup channels from third-party apps

We have some internal third party apps that we use in other apps in our eco system. The problem is that the AJAX_LOOKUP_CHANNELS is required to be in the settings.py in order for it to work and that means we constantly have to copy those channels in our main app and keep them up to date. So we wrote:

https://github.com/peterfarrell/django-ajax-selects-autodiscover

This allows us to autodiscover any channels in installed apps by looking for a AJAX_LOOKUP_CHANNELS in each lookup.py.

In your settings.py file, replace your AJAX_LOOKUP_CHANNELS with:

from ajax_selects_autodiscover import AutoDiscover

AJAX_LOOKUP_CHANNELS = AutoDiscover()

The lookup.py files is now where you define all your channels. Here is an example:

from ajax_select import LookupChannel

from login.models import Application


class ApplicationLookup(LookupChannel):
    model = Application

    def get_query(self, q, request):
        return Application.objects.find_active_by_name(q)


AJAX_LOOKUP_CHANNELS = {
    'application': ('shared.lookup', 'ApplicationLookup'),
}

avoid warning when installing via pip

when installing using pip this output is posted:

no previously-included directories found matching 'example/AJAXSELECTS
no previously-included directories found matching 'example/ajax_select'

this is harmless, but I'd like to know why it happens. something to do with the Manifest and the purge lines

Autocomplete widget for multiple select not reloading upon form error

My setup includes autoselect for ManyToMany field, which is part of the form. Upon form error, the form is reloaded (displaying e.g. error messages), but the autoselect widget does not show any selected items.
I'm not sure it's a bug, but could be.
(Otherwise, works like charm, so many thanks for your hard work!)

Limit number of results returned by lookup and auto load additional results when user scrolls to bottom of list

@crucialfelix

In our app we have > 100k names of persons that we would like to be able to search for using ajax_selects.

The current implementation would, in worst case scenarios, result in a major performance drop as the lookup would return far too many items.

I am currently working on a PR that will

load only a given number of items from the server with each request (limit)
load additional items from the server as soon as the user scrolls down to the bottom of the list (offset)

I still need to flesh things out but I wonder whether such a PR would be appreciated and how soon it could be integrated into the master once all issues have been resolved.

Thanks!

django inline formset

Hello,
In the UI django-ajax_select only works with the pre-loaded django-inline-formset rows; It doesn't work with the other rows that are added with "add another".

Any help in this will be appreciated.

Here is the form:


class CoachingForm(BaseInlineFormSet):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(CoachingForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)

    def add_fields(self, form, index):
        super(CoachingForm, self).add_fields(form, index)
        form.fields["sport"] = AutoCompleteSelectField('sport', required=True)
        form.fields["high_school"] = AutoCompleteSelectField('high_school', required=True)


CoachingFormSet = inlineformset_factory(Coach, Coaching, formset=CoachingForm, extra=1, can_delete=True )

Thank you

DeprecationWarning: Creating a ModelForm without either the 'fields' attribute or the 'exclude' attribute is deprecated

I'm getting the following Warning for TheForm:

$python manage.py validate

That happens in Django 1.7

When create select list always show (in bottom list) add new object.

When looking for a object, can always create a new object :)

error 'this.data("autocomplete") is undefined'

Hello,

I have an AutoCompleteSelectMultipleField and after rendering, I'm getting the above javascript error in my browser console and the autocomplete field doesn't seem to work at all. As far as I can tell I've included the proper jquery files. I've set AJAX_SELECT_INLINES to True and it seems that ajax_select.js is getting pulled in properly.

Any ideas??

thanks!

format_match did not work with django-ajax-select 1.3.3

class ProductLookup(object):
   ...
    def get_result(self, obj):
        return 'A'

    def format_item_display(self, obj):
        return 'B'

    def format_match(self, obj):
        return 'C'

JSON:

[{"pk": "1", "match": "C", "value": "A", "repr": "B"}]

Autocomplete 1.3.3 in dropdown lis display only "A" and "B", but not "C".
In django-ajax-select1.2.5 in dropdown list was "C".

What I'm doing wrong?
