django-starfield 1.0

Description

This is a simple widget rendering so-called rating stars as input for an integer field. It is based solely on CSS 3, as laid out by Martin Ivanov.

Usage

Just add the Stars widget to any IntegerField in a Django form.

from django import forms
from django_starfield import Stars

class StarsExampleForm(forms.Form):
    rating = forms.IntegerField(widget=Stars)

The following aspects are configurable, both in the Django settings and when creating the widget (by passing an argument to Stars):

Please note that some browsers render some Unicode characters, especially emojis, as images, so changing the font colour will not work.

Differences

This is different from other star rating applications in that it provides only a widget returning its selction to any IntegerField. It is not a complete rating application, just a presentational widget for integer input. It is also different in that it depends only on CSS3, without any JavaScript.
