When to use

Use this skill when building or editing forms handling user input for views like back-office organizers (control/) or attendee-facing routes (presale/).

Steps

  1. Place the new form class strictly alongside its relevant sub-app (e.g., app/eventyay/base/forms/, app/eventyay/control/forms/).
  2. Add specific, individual field-level validation by implementing clean_<field>() methods.
  3. Add multi-field or cross-field validation logic by implementing generic clean() method overrides.

Validation

  1. Confirm the form has definitively been organized within its intended domain scope (e.g. keeping control constraints strictly out of presale domains).

Gotchas

  • Do not bypass Django's built-in validation mechanisms logic when working with forms.
  • Do not mix control/forms/ configurations into presale/ logic.
