The django.contrib.comments.forms
module contains a handful of forms
you’ll use when writing custom views dealing with comments, or when writing
custom comment apps.
CommentForm
¶The main comment form representing the standard, built-in way of handling
submitted comments. This is the class used by all the views
django.contrib.comments
to handle submitted comments.
If you want to build custom views that are similar to Django’s built-in comment handling views, you’ll probably want to use this form.
If you’re building a custom comment app, you might want to replace some of the form logic but still rely on parts of the existing form.
CommentForm
is actually composed of a couple of abstract base class
forms that you can subclass to reuse pieces of the form handling logic:
CommentSecurityForm
¶Handles the anti-spoofing protection aspects of the comment form handling.
This class contains the content_type
and object_pk
fields pointing
to the object the comment is attached to, along with a timestamp
and a
security_hash
of all the form data. Together, the timestamp and the
security hash ensure that spammers can’t “replay” form submissions and
flood you with comments.
CommentDetailsForm
¶Handles the details of the comment itself.
This class contains the name
, email
, url
, and the comment
field itself, along with the associated validation logic.
