Passing Arguments To Modelview Edit Template In Flask-admin

I am trying to learn more about Flask by building a CMS. I am using flask-admin to add the posts, images etc. I have managed to override textarea with ckeditor. But I want to pass

Solution 1:

You have to override the views to change _template_args.

classTestAdmin(ModelView):
    form_overrides = dict(text=forms.CustomTextAreaField)
    create_template = 'edit.html'
    edit_template = 'edit.html'    @expose('/edit/', methods=('GET', 'POST'))defedit_view(self):
         self._template_args['foo'] = 'bar'returnsuper(TestAdmin, self).edit_view()

If you want to pass some global value to templates, you can use a context_processor (http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/templating/#context-processors).

@app.context_processordefinject_paths():
    # you will be able to access {{ path1 }} and {{ path2 }} in templatesreturndict(path1='x', path2='y')
