class Meta
==========
.. module:: wtforms.meta
the `class Meta` paradigm allows WTForms features to be customized, and even
new behaviors to be introduced. It also supplies a place where configuration
for any complementary modules can be done.
Typical usage looks something like::
class MyForm(Form):
class Meta:
csrf = True
locales = ('en_US', 'en')
name = StringField(...)
# and so on...
For the majority of users, using a class Meta is mostly going to be done for
customizing options used by the default behaviors, however for completeness
the entire API of the `Meta` interface is shown here.
.. autoclass:: DefaultMeta
**Configuration**
.. autoattribute:: csrf
Setting ``csrf`` to `True` will enable CSRF for the form. The value can
also be overridden per-instance via instantiation-time customization
(for example, if csrf needs to be turned off only in a special case)
.. code-block:: python
form = MyForm(request.form, meta={'csrf': False})
.. autoattribute:: csrf_class
If set, this is a class which is used to implement CSRF protection.
Read the :doc:`CSRF Documentation <csrf>` to get more information on
how to use.
.. autoattribute:: csrf_field_name
The name of the automatically added CSRF token field.
.. autoattribute:: locales
Setting to a sequence of strings specifies the priority order
of locales to try to find translations for built-in messages of
WTForms.
If the value is `False`, then strings are not translated
(the translations provider is replaced with a dummy provider)
example::
locales = ('fr_FR', 'fr')
Also see :doc:`i18n` for more information.
.. autoattribute:: cache_translations
If `True` (the default) then cache translation objects. The default
cache is done at class-level so it's shared with all class Meta.
**Advanced Customization**
Usually, you do not need to override these methods, as they provide core
behaviors of WTForms.
.. automethod:: build_csrf
.. automethod:: get_translations
.. automethod:: bind_field
.. automethod:: wrap_formdata
.. automethod:: render_field
