Comments
I had to change line #60 to :
to make it work on python3 and django 1.10.7
#
Apart from changing line #60 to
local_attrs = self.build_attrs(base_attrs=self.attrs)like the comment above suggested I had to add
renderer=Noneto render method arguments like this Stackoverflow answer suggested: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52039654/django-typeerror-render-got-an-unexpected-keyword-argument-rendererDjango==2.1.2 python==3.7.0
#
I also found some strange behavior where while saving an object using data from a form that uses this widget. I need to implicitly set the objects variable like this:
object= form.save(commit=False)object.year_and_month=form.cleaned_data['year_and_month']object.save()Without this line the data will not be saved to the object even though I can see them in cleaned_data when debugging. The data will just end up being skipped/ignored for some reason (other fields are saved - only this particular one is skipped).
