An implementation of django's model forms for mongoengine documents. I am aware that there is already a [similar project](https://github.com/stephrdev/django-mongoforms), but I needed support for django's `modelform_factory` and `formset_factory`. The code used in this project is mostly taken from django's modelform code.

**This is pre-alpha software.** Most things are not really tested and although we try to use it wherever posible, you may stumble over weird bugs or your server might explode.

You should be able to use *mongodbforms* just like django's standard forms. If you can't you have most likely found a bug. [Report it, please.](https://github.com/jschrewe/django-mongodbforms/issues) Thank you.

mongodbforms supports forms for normal documents and embedded documents.

To use mongodbforms with normal documents replace djangos forms with mongodbform forms.

from mongodbforms import DocumentForm

class BlogForm(DocumentForm)

...

For embedded documents use `EmbeddedDocumentForm`. The Meta-object of the form has to be provided with an embedded field name. The embedded object is appended to this. The form constructor takes an additional argument: The document the embedded document gets added to.

# forms.py

from mongodbforms import EmbeddedDocumentForm

class MessageForm(EmbeddedDocumentForm):

class Meta:

document = Message

embedded_field_name = 'messages'

fields = ['subject', 'sender', 'message',]

# views.py

form = MessageForm(parent_document=some_document, ...)
