A somewhat complete remap of django form to HTML5 form.
Modelform use widgets because you are not able to add extra field information at creation. I believe this is a designed feature in django.core as line 199 in django.forms.fields generates wigdet_attribute only once. We have allowed you pass:
class TodoForm(forms.HTML5ModelForm):
body = forms.CharField(label=_(u'Post or Story Body'), placeholder=_(u'listed'), required=True)
sample = forms.IntegerField(max=25, min=10, step=5)
class Meta:
model = Todo
exclude = ('slug', 'date')
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(TodoForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.fields['task'].widget.placeholder = _(u'A Task to do')
self.fields['units'].widget.min = 0
self.fields['units'].widget.max = 100
self.fields['units'].widget.step = 5
