How to add data-valid='parsley' as a form attribute in django crispy form for client-side validation?

Question

I am a beginner in django crispy form, i want to make my form tag as

<form data-parsley-validate>
    {{ form.as_p }}
</form>

I want to know how to pass data_validate = 'parsley' in to the html page having the crispy form tag from the form.py?

Answer 1

The docs on custom helper attributes suggest you should be able to set attrs on your form helper:

self.helper.attrs = {'data-parsley-validate': 1}

This will render the form tag

<form data-parsley-validate="1">

instead of

<form data-parsley-validate>

as you want. However it might be good enough to get parsley to work.
