Re: Django django_filters DateFilter customization

Thanks Kasper,

Will try the suggested option. 

Meanwhile, do you know how to get the documentation for danjo_filters DateFilter() method, and want to know what all parameters it can accept. Usually we do pass  field_name; lookup_expr; label , just curious if we could pass attrs as we pass in forms.Modelform.

I did try checking the document from https://django-filter.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ref/filters.html#datefilter, but there its not mentioned. 

Please direct me to the right direction.

Thanks & Regards,

It seems like the HTML date input field has attributes for setting the
min and max value:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input/date#additional_attributes

Setting these attributes to the first and last day of the month for the
widget ought to work:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/ref/forms/widgets/#django.forms.Widget.attrs

Of course, you still need to ensure that the client doesn't send an
invalid/unexpected date.

I haven't tested this, but that's what I'd try to do at least.

Hope that helps.

Kind regards,

Kasper Laudrup
