Re: Create email template with the click of a button

Hello,

Emailfield is nothing other then a normal InputField but later with a special validator. I would take InputField then write your own Validator where you split input commasparated an validate every address with a regex.

Hello,

I have another problem. 

I am trying to get CC to accept multiple email addresses but I do not seem to get it to work as it always says Enter a valid email address. I've searched for solutions, heard the new field MultiValueField but I also do not know how to use this in forms.py.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is my forms.py code:

from django import forms
#  from django.forms.fields import MultiValueField
from django.forms.widgets import EmailInput, TextInput


class ComposeForm(forms.Form):
    email_to = forms.EmailField(label="To", widget=EmailInput(attrs={"size": 76}))
    email_cc = forms.EmailField(
        label="CC",
        required=False,
        widget=EmailInput(attrs={"size": 76, "multiple": True}),
    )
    email_subject = forms.CharField(
        required=False, widget=TextInput(attrs={"placeholder": "Subject", "size": 76})
    )
    email_message = forms.CharField(
        required=True, label="", widget=forms.Textarea(attrs={"rows": 19, "cols": 78})
    )

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And this is my views.py code:

from django.shortcuts import render

from .forms import ComposeForm


def email_template(request):
    if request.method == "GET":
        form = ComposeForm()
    else:
        form = ComposeForm(request.POST)
        if form.is_valid():
            print(form)
            email_to = form.cleaned_data["email_to"]
            email_cc = form.cleaned_data["email_cc"]
            email_subject = form.cleaned_data["email_subject"]
            email_message = form.cleaned_data["email_message"]

            print("Emails:", email_cc)
        else:
            print("DEBUG:", form.errors)
    return render(request, "email_template.html", {"form": form})

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And this is my email_template.html HTML:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Home</title>
</head>
<body>
    <form method="POST">
        {% csrf_token %}
        <table>
            {{ form.as_table }}
        </table>
        <input type="submit" value="Submit">
    </form>
</body>
</html>


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please tell me whether it's possible to have multiple email addresses in email_cc aka CC field in Django or do I have to use frontend frameworks for this one job or start using one for better practice (get used to using frameworks to build frontend side)?

Please advise.

Regards,
Kristen

Hello,

Correct. I want to the user to click a button and have a form appear where the user can compose an email.

Gmail uses javascript to render their form on top of the inbox because they don't want you to have to leave the inbox page. You probably don't have that requirement.

Let me know if that works for you.

I don't really want to redirect the user elsewhere. I would really like to do the Gmail way because I like it and thought maybe it's possible with Django.

Nonetheless, I will try out your idea because my curiosity wants to know whether it's worth the effort to do it the Gmail way or go easier route way by doing it just as you explained.

Let me know what you think of it, the Gmail way idea. 

Kind regards
