=========================== django-tagging-autocomplete

django-tagging-autocomplete is a jquery based autocomplete solution for django-tagging.

Requirements

• django-tagging

Setup

1. Download package and install, for example using pip::

   pip install django-tagging-autocomplete

2. Add tagging_autocomplete to installed apps in your project's settings.

3. Add the following line to your project's urls.py file::

   (r'^tagging_autocomplete/', include('tagging_autocomplete.urls')),

Usage

The Model Field

You can use TagAutocompleteField() to enable autocompletion right in your models.py. In most cases this is the easiest solution::

from django.db import models
from tagging_autocomplete.models import TagAutocompleteField

class SomeModel(models.Model):
        tags = TagAutocompleteField()

The Form Widget

Alternatively you can use the TagAutocomplete() form widget while creating your form::

from django import forms
from tagging.forms import TagField
from tagging_autocomplete.widgets import TagAutocomplete

class SomeForm(forms.Form):
    tags = TagField(widget=TagAutocomplete())

Optional settings

By default the maximum number of results suggested by the autocompletion is 100. You can modify this number by adding to your settings.py project file the TAGGING_AUTOCOMPLETE_MAX_RESULTS constant. For example::

TAGGING_AUTOCOMPLETE_MAX_RESULTS = 5

By default autocompletion suggests tags that start with a given term. In case you need to show ones that contain the given term, set TAGGING_AUTOCOMPLETE_SEARCH_CONTAINS to True. For example::

TAGGING_AUTOCOMPLETE_SEARCH_CONTAINS = True

By default suggestions are shown right after you enter first character. You can configure this behaviour using TAGGING_AUTOCOMPLETE_MIN_LENGTH. For example::

TAGGING_AUTOCOMPLETE_MIN_LENGTH = 3
