I use the Djangoimage upload form and I use Bootstap-fileinput.
When the form has already been initialized with the image, I want the image to be displayed immediately, but it just does not display the image at present. How to get a template to automatically display the file-input-existsBootstap HTML version instead of the version file-input-new?
Forms.py:
class MyModelForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = MyModel
fields = ['image',]
widget = {
'image' : forms.FileInput(attrs={'class': 'form-control',
'id' : 'input-file'}),
}
My template has:
{{form.image}}
{{form.image.errors}}
This generates the following HTML: whether the form contains an image or not
<div class="file-input file-input-new"><div class="file-preview ">
<div class="close fileinput-remove">×</div>
<div class="">
<div class="file-preview-thumbnails"></div>
<div class="clearfix"></div>
<div class="file-preview-status text-center text-success"></div>
<div class="kv-fileinput-error file-error-message" style="display: none;"></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="kv-upload-progress hide"></div>
<div class="input-group ">
<div tabindex="500" class="form-control file-caption kv-fileinput-caption">
<div class="file-caption-name"></div>
</div>
<div class="input-group-btn">
<button type="button" tabindex="500" title="Clear selected files" class="btn btn-default fileinput-remove fileinput-remove-button"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-trash"></i> Remove</button>
<button type="button" tabindex="500" title="Abort ongoing upload" class="btn btn-default hide fileinput-cancel fileinput-cancel-button"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-ban-circle"></i> Cancel</button>
<div tabindex="500" class="btn btn-primary btn-file"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-folder-open"></i> Browse …<input class="form-control" id="input-file" name="image" type="file" required=""></div>
</div>
</div>
** EDIT ** Thanks to the help so far I am now showing the images, but if I try and resubmit the form, I get a message that the file is not selected. I need to do this too.
I added this javascript to display the image at boot time.
<script>
$("#input-file").fileinput({
showUpload: false,
initialPreviewShowDelete: false,
{% if form.instance.image %}
initialPreview: [
"<img src='{{ form.instance.image.url }}' class='file-preview-frame'>",
],
initialPreviewConfig: [
{caption: "{{ form.instance.image.name}}",},
],
{% endif %}
});
</script>
