Which forms libaray for use with Flask and SQLAlchemy

Question

I am working on a Flask and SQLAlchemy based web application. Most forms / models are interconnected and therefore it is necessary to use a library that is flexible enough to handle several forms and allows you to easily override [or create] default widgets.

Can someone recommend a library of good forms (other than formal). I really liked the forms of django, but I wonder if there is an alternative.

Answer 1

WTForms should suit your taste, with Flask and SQLAlchemy.

Answer 2

You can also use the "warp" that repoze.BFG aka Pylons2 currently supports.

It has some good “magic” methods for creating a collection of forms and adding new forms on the fly.

If you liked django then warping might be a good choice.
