ievv_tagframework — General purpose tagging framework

The intention of this module is to provide a re-usable tagging framework for Django apps.

Data model API

class ievv_opensource.ievv_tagframework.models.Tag(*args, **kwargs)[source]

A single tag.

A tag has a unique name, and data models is added to a tag via TaggedObject.

taglabel

The label for the tag.

tagtype

The tagtype is a way for applications to group tags by type. No logic is assigned to this field by default, other than that is is db_indexed. The valid choices for the field is configured via the IEVV_TAGFRAMEWORK_TAGTYPE_CHOICES setting.

static get_tagtype_choices()[source]

Returns choices for tagtype.

This is not set as choices on the field (because changing that would trigger a migration), but it should be used in any form displaying tagtype.

You configure the return value via the IEVV_TAGFRAMEWORK_TAGTYPE_CHOICES Django setting.

classmethod get_tagtype_valid_values()[source]

Returns an iterator over the choices returned by get_tagtype_choices(), but only the values (not the labels) as a flat list.

clean()[source]

Hook for doing any extra model-wide validation after clean() has been called on every field by self.clean_fields. Any ValidationError raised by this method will not be associated with a particular field; it will have a special-case association with the field defined by NON_FIELD_ERRORS.
