using knockout.js with django forms?

Question

I am looking to add some structure to my client side code and have been reading about knockout.js. I have been reading the documentations and have a simple question

Answer 1

Another way is to use django-crispy-forms and define data-bind attributes in the layout:

def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
    super(SomeForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
    self.helper = FormHelper()
    self.helper.layout = Layout(
        Div('field_1',
            Field('field_2', data_bind='value: field_2')),
        HTML("{% if success %} 
Operation was successful
 {% endif %}"),
    )

Then in the template you only do:

{% crispy form form.helper %}

and voila.

Cripsy-forms is even more powerful than that and allows you to define your own layout templates etc.
