An alternative widget that makes it easy to edit the new Django's field JSONField (PostgreSQL specific model fields)


Quickstart
----------

Install django-json-widget::

    pip install django-json-widget

Add it to your `INSTALLED_APPS`:

.. code-block:: python

    INSTALLED_APPS = (
        ...
        'django_json_widget',
        ...
    )

Add the widget in your admin.py:

.. code-block:: python

    from django.contrib import admin
    from django.db.models import JSONField
    from django_json_widget.widgets import JSONEditorWidget
    from .models import YourModel


    @admin.register(YourModel)
    class YourModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
        formfield_overrides = {
            JSONField: {'widget': JSONEditorWidget},
        }

You can also add the widget in your forms.py:

.. code-block:: python

    from django import forms
    from django_json_widget.widgets import JSONEditorWidget
    from .models import YourModel


    class YourForm(forms.ModelForm):
        class Meta:
            model = YourModel

            fields = ('jsonfield',)

            widgets = {
                'jsonfield': JSONEditorWidget
            }

Configuration
-------------

You can customize the JSONEditorWidget with the following options:

* **width**: Width of the editor as a string with CSS size units (px, em, % etc). Defaults to ``90%``.
* **height**: Height of the editor as a string CSS size units. Defaults to ``550px``.
* **options**: A dict of options accepted by the `JSON editor`_. Options that require functions (eg. onError) are not supported.
* **mode (deprecated)**: The default editor mode. This argument is redundant because it can be specified as a part of ``options``.  Preserved for backwards compatibility with version 0.2.0.
* **attrs**: HTML attributes to be applied to the wrapper element. See the `Django Widget documentation`_.

Accessing JsonEditor Instance
-----------------------------

The JsonEditor instance is automatically exposed for external access through two methods:

1. **Window object**: Available as ``window['FIELD_ID_editor']`` where FIELD_ID is the field's HTML ID
2. **DOM element**: Available as ``container.jsonEditor`` property on the widget's container element

Example usage for external JavaScript access:

.. code-block:: javascript

    // Access via window object
    var editor = window['id_jsonfield_editor'];
    editor.set({'key': 'new value'});
    
    // Access via DOM element
    var container = document.getElementById('id_jsonfield');
    var editor = container.jsonEditor;
    editor.set({'key': 'new value'});

This allows you to programmatically call JsonEditor methods like ``set()``, ``get()``, ``update()``, etc. from custom JavaScript code running in your admin pages or forms.
