Online material (docs, code) for django's (postgres-specific) range fields is lacking. I tried overriding the widget for DateTimeRangeField, but can't get it to show 2 pretty date-time inputs using SplitDateTimeWidget (start datetime, end datetime) for my field. I have settled for overriding the type attribute and getting the following okayish output, without this, it's just plain type="text".
Current behaviour:
Expected behaviour: Following, but 2 of them.
My models.py
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.postgres.fields import DateTimeRangeField
class MyModel(models.Model):
...
datetimerange = DateTimeRangeField()
...
My admin.py
from django import forms
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.postgres.forms.ranges import RangeWidget, DateTimeRangeField
class MyModelAdminForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = models.MyModel
fields = "__all__"
widgets = {
"datetimerange": RangeWidget(
forms.SplitDateTimeWidget(
date_attrs={"type": "date"}, time_attrs={"type": "time"},
),
)
}
@admin.register(models.MyModel)
class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
form = MyModelAdminForm
I tried playing around with (inheriting from) the default field DateTimeRangeField but no luck there as well.
