Field order in forms is not the same as model definition

[pfortes]

When a form is auto generated the field order is not the one i defined the db model with, is there a way to make the oder right?

This is turning out more difficult to address than I thought. Still looking into it.

I ended up building a config file with all the form label definitions and custom stuff so i can display them correctly, in the order i want and even use nested boolean select boxes, hidden fields that come up when other field changes value, etc...

my config file looks like:

_MODEL_CONFIG = {
    'Perfil': {
        'label': u'Perfil',
        'items':  [
            {'label': u'Nombre completo',
            'inputs':[
                {'key': 'nombre', 'label': u'Nombre', 'validation': ''},
                {'key': 'apellidoPaterno', 'label': u'Apellido paterno', 'validation': ''},
                {'key': 'apellidoMaterno', 'label': u'Apellido materno', 'validation': ''}
            ]},
            {'key': 'genero', 'label': u'Genero', 'validation': ''},
            {'label': u'Fecha de nacimiento',
            'inputs':[
                {'key': 'diaNacimiento', 'label': u'Día', 'validation': ''},
                {'key': 'mesNacimiento', 'label': u'Mes', 'validation': ''},
                {'key': 'anoNacimiento', 'label': u'Año', 'validation': ''},
            ]},
            {'key': 'lugarNacimiento', 'label': u'¿En qué estado naciste?', 'validation': ''},
      {'key': 'telefono', 'label': u'Teléfono celular', 'validation': {'type':'pattern', 'value': '\+?\d{1,3}?[- .]?\(?(?:\d{2,3})\)?[- .]?\d\d\d[- .]?\d\d\d'}},
      {'label': u'Correo electrónico',
      'inputs':[
        {'key': 'email', 'label': u'email', 'validation': {'type':'pattern', 'value': "/^....$"}},
          {'key': 'email2', 'label': u'Confirmar email', 'validation': {'type':'equalTo', 'value': 'email'}},
            ]}
  'DatosBancarios': {
        'label': u'Datos bancarios',
        'items':  [
            {'boolean': 'tieneCuentaBancaria',
             'label': u'¿Tienes cuenta bancaria?',
             'inputs':[ 
                {'label': u'Datos de la cuenta:',
                 'inputs':[
                    {'key': 'banco', 'label': u'¿En qué banco está registrada la cuenta?', 'validation': ''}
                ]}, 
                {'label': u'¿Dónde te depositaremos?',
                 'inputs':[
                    {'key': 'clabe'      , 'label': u'CLABE', 'validation': ''},
                    {'key': 'tarjetaDebito'      , 'label': u'No. tarjeta de Débito', 'validation': ''},
                ]},   
                {'key': 'numeroTarjetas'    , 'label': u'¿Cuántas tarjetas de crédito tienes?', 'validation': ''},
            ]},
            {'key': 'tarjetaTiendaDepartamental' , 'label': u'¿Tienes tarjeta de tienda departamental?', 'validation': ''}
        ]
    }



etc

You have to write the model and also its definition in the model file but you get lots of display and formatting stuff in exchange!

@pfortes This looks very interesting. Would you like to submit a pull request?

That sounds interesting!

i will try to fork your original version and make the basic algae example work with this concept.

i'll let you know as soon as i have something working!
