Django Inline Formsets using custom form

Question

I am using inline formsets.

My model:

class Author(models.Model):
    description = models.CharField(max_length=100)

class Book(models.Model):
    autho         


        

Answer 1

Try:

class BookForm(ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Book
        widgets = {
            'details': Textarea(attrs={'cols': 40, 'rows': 4}),
        }


InlineFormSet = inlineformset_factory(Author, Book, form=BookForm)

Update by Wtower

This is great. Specifically for widgets, as of Django 1.6 there is a widgets parameter for inlineformset_factory

Sounds like you can now call

inlineformset_factory(Author, Book, widgets={'details': Textarea(attrs={'cols': 40}))
