Django Form Designer (KCS Fork)

Acknowledgements

This project is a fork of https://github.com/samluescher/django-form-designer . Thanks, @samluescher!

This fork is compatible with Django 4+ and Python 3.7+.

General

A Django admin app with a GUI to create complex forms without any programming skills; complete with logging, validation, and redirects.

Key features:

  • Design contact forms, search forms etc from the Django admin, without writing any code
  • Form data can be logged and CSV-exported, sent via e-mail, or forwarded to any web address
  • Use drag & drop to change the position of your form fields
  • Fully collapsible admin interface for better overview over your form
  • Implements many form fields included with Django (TextField, EmailField, DateField etc)
  • Validation rules as supplied by Django are fully configurable (maximum length, regular expression etc)
  • Customizable messages and labels
  • Supports POST and GET forms
  • Signals on form render, submission, success, error.
  • Supports google reCAPTCHA service

Basic setup

  • Add form_designer to your INSTALLED_APPS setting:

    INSTALLED_APPS = (
        ...
        'form_designer',
    )
  • For basic usage, add URLs to your URL conf. For instance, in order to make a form named example-form available under http://domain.com/forms/example-form, add the following line to your project's urls.py:

    urlpatterns = patterns('',
        (r'^forms/', include('form_designer.urls')),
        ...
    )

Optional requirements

The form_designer admin interface requires jQuery and the jQuery UI Sortable plugin to make building forms a lot more user-friendly. The two Javascript files are bundled with form_designer. If you want to use you own jquery.js instead because you're already including it anyway, define JQUERY_JS in your settings file. For instance:

JQUERY_JS = 'jquery/jquery-latest.js'

Running tests

Use tox.
