django-mdeditor
Django-mdeditor is Markdown Editor plugin application for django base on Editor.md.
Django-mdeditor was inspired by great django-ckeditor.
Note:
- For Markdown page rendering issues, backend rendering is recommended. Because
Editor.md
has not been updated for a long time, some bugs and compatibility issues need to be debugged. Of course, front-end students can choose. - Regarding the
Jquery
conflict, it cannot be deleted because it is required by the admin backend. It is recommended to separate the editing page on a single page or a full screen directly, using its own static file to distinguish it from other pages.

Usage
Edit fields in the model using Markdown
Using Markdown to edit the fields in the model, we simply replace the TextField
of the model with MDTextField
.
from django.db import models
from mdeditor.fields import MDTextField
class ExampleModel (models.Model):
name = models.CharField (max_length = 10)
content = MDTextField ()
Admin in the background, will automatically display markdown edit rich text.
Used in front-end template, you can use like this:
{% load staticfiles %}
<! DOCTYPE html>
<html lang = "en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv = "Content-Type" content = "text / html; charset = utf-8" />
</ head>
<body>
<form method = "post" action = "./">
{% csrf_token %}
{{ form.media }}
{{ form.as_p }}
<p> <input type = "submit" value = "post"> </ p>
</ form>
</ body>
</ html>
Edit fields in the Form using markdown
Use markdown to edit fields in the Form, use MDTextFormField
instead of forms.CharField
, as follows:
from mdeditor.fields import MDTextFormField
class MDEditorForm (forms.Form):
name = forms.CharField ()
content = MDTextFormField ()
ModelForm
can automatically convert the corresponding model field to the form field, which can be used normally:
class MDEditorModleForm (forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = ExampleModel
fields = '__all__'
Use the markdown widget in admin
Use the markdown widget in admin like as :
from django.contrib import admin
from django.db import models
# Register your models here.
from. import models as demo_models
from mdeditor.widgets import MDEditorWidget
class ExampleModelAdmin (admin.ModelAdmin):
formfield_overrides = {
models.TextField: {'widget': MDEditorWidget}
}
admin.site.register (demo_models.ExampleModel, ExampleModelAdmin)
