This module is not aimed to replace the newforms, but I would like manually write html code, and just need a pure validate module, so I write this, and many things may be similar with newforms. So if you like me would only need a pure validator module, you can use it.

And it has some different features from newforms:

  1. Support validator_list parameter, so you could use it just like the old manipuator class
  2. Supply easy method, such as validate_and_save(), so you can pass a request object, and get a tuple result (flag, obj_or_error), if the flag is True, then the next value is an object; and if the flag is False, then the next value is error message.
  3. Each field has a validate_and_get method, and it'll validate first and then return the result, maybe an object or error message. Just like above.
  4. SplitDateTimeField is somewhat different from the newforms. For example::

    c = SplitDateTimeField('date', 'time') print c.validate_and_get({'date':'2006/11/30', 'time':'12:13'})

    So the first parameter is DateField's field_name, and the second parameter is TimeField's field_name. 5. Add yyyy/mm/dd date format support 6. Support default value of a field. You can add a default value for a field, if this field is not required, and the value is empty, Validator will return the default value.

This module is new, so many things could be changed.
