Building a Read Only Field in Django

Read Original

This technical article explains how to create a read-only field for Django forms and the admin interface. It provides a step-by-step guide, including code examples for a custom ReadOnlyField subclass and a ReadOnlyWidget, to display non-editable data. The author notes this is a workaround for a feature not natively supported at the time (2008) and discusses its limitations.
