Passing Arguments to ModelView edit template in flask-admin
You have to override the views to change _template_args
.
class TestAdmin(ModelView): form_overrides = dict(text=forms.CustomTextAreaField) create_template = 'edit.html' edit_template = 'edit.html' @expose('/edit/', methods=('GET', 'POST')) def edit_view(self): self._template_args['foo'] = 'bar' return super(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_processordef inject_paths(): # you will be able to access {{ path1 }} and {{ path2 }} in templates return dict(path1='x', path2='y')
