Autocompletion

Autocompletion is obtained throught autocomplete_light package.

A patch is applied to the js code of the widget to add the capability of filtering in a dynamic way, i.e. passing to the function also the id of other elements in the page that have already being selected.

Dynamic Autocompletion

This module provides DynamicAutocompleteModelBase a class that inherits from autocomplete_light.AutocompleteModelBase.

You can define a dictionary called filters whose keys are queryset filter keywords and whose values are dom id. The js widget will retrieve the values of the ids and send them along with the string used in the autocompletion:

from jmb.core.utils.autocomplete import DynamicAutocompleteModelBase

class MyAutocomplete(DynamicAutocompleteModelBase):
    filters = {
         'organization_id' : '#id_organization',
         'project_id'  : '#id_project',
    }

In this situation the widget will call the url:

/ticket/autocomplete/MyAutocomplete/?q=san&organization_id=1530&project_id=10

that will be handled automatically by choices_for_request

class jmb.core.utils.autocomplete.DynamicAutocompleteModelBase(*args, **kw)[source]
choices_for_request()[source]

Return all choices taking into account all dynamic filters

you may need to customize this

filters = {}

a dict. Keys must be keywords to filter a quesryset, e.g.: organization_id, organization__address__country_id, and the values must be id in the html page whose value will be retrieved by javascript and sent along (e.g.: #organization_id)

get_filters()[source]

Return a dictionary suitable to filter self.choices using self.filters
