meaning of `button_map` in the form_field definition in flask-bootstrap
According to your link (see quick_form):
button_map – A dictionary, mapping button field names to names such as
primary,dangerorsuccess. Buttons not found in thebutton_mapwill use thedefaulttype of button.
That means if you did something like
form_field(submit_button, button_map={'submit_button': 'primary'})you'd get a button with primary as its type.
As the docs also mention, form_field is used primarily by quick_form where a mapping makes more sense than for an individual field.
If you render form as a quick_form then 'btn-primary' class will be added to 'submit' button.
{{ wtf.quick_form(form, button_map={'submit': 'primary'}) }}
In the above two answers, whatever name you use to call your SubmitField (ie. submit button) when you create your Flask form, is the same name you use inside the mapeg
##WTForm
class CreatePostForm(FlaskForm): #some code here submit_button = SubmitField("Submit Post")Your quick form will be:
{{wtf.quick_form(form, novalidate=True, button_map = {"submit_button":"primary"} )}}
