- Optional validator failed when raw_data was absent (r418)

- Add preliminary support for providing a translations object that can translate built-in validation and coercion errors (#32)
Released April 25th, 2010.
- Widgets:
- HTML is now marked as safe (using __html__) so that compatible templating engines will not auto-escape it.
- Fields:
- Field._default is now Field.default.
- All fields now have a raw_data property.
- Fields which are select fields (including those in .ext) can be iterated to produce options, and have an option_widget kwarg.
- Minor bugfixes and cleanup in FieldList, Select(Multiple)Field, QuerySelectField to address behavioral consistency.
- Added FloatField, based on IntegerField.
- Extensions:
- ext.appengine now supports FloatProperty and GeoPtProperty.
- ext.sqlalchemy QueryMultipleSelectField changed to QuerySelectMultipleField.
Released February 13th, 2010.
- Added a BaseForm class which provides the core processing and validation functionality of Form without requiring declarative subclassing.
- Fields:
- Field labels now default to a humanized field name.
- Fields now have a short_name property which is the un-prefixed name.
- DecimalField now rounds values for display without float coercion. See docs for details on how to format decimals.
- Extensions:
- ext.sqlalchemy.fields now has an additional QuerySelectMultipleField, and all fields can now support multiple-column primary keys.
- ext.sqlalchemy.orm contains tools for making forms from ORM models.
- Added ext.dateutil for flexible date-time parsing.
- Added ext.appengine contributed by Rodrigo Moraes.
- Added AnyOf and NoneOf validators.
Released October 10th, 2009.
- Fields have much greater control over input processing. Filters have been added to implement a simple way to transform input data.
- Added fields that encapsulate advanced data structures such as dynamic lists or child forms for more powerful field composing.
- Fields now use widgets for rendering.
- All built-in validators have been converted to classes to clean up the code.
- Form.auto_populate and Field.populate were renamed to populate_obj to clarify that they populate another object, not the Form or Field. This is an API breaking change.
- Dropped support for Python 2.3.
Released January 24th, 2009.
- Several fixes were made to the code and tests to make WTForms compatible with Python 2.3/2.4.
- Form's properties can now be accessed via dictionary-style access such as form['author']. This also has the intended effect of making variable lookups in Django templates more reliable.
- Form and Field construction changes: Form now uses a metaclass to handle creating its _unbound_fields property, and Field construction now gives an instance of the new UnboundField class instead of using a partial function application. These are both internal changes and do not change the API.
Released January 18th, 2009.
Validation overhaul: Fields are now responsible for their own validation, instead of mostly relying on Form. There are also new pre_validate and post_validate hooks on subfields, adding a great deal of flexibility when dealing with field-level validation. Note that this is an API breaking change if you have any subfields that override Field.validate. These will need to be updated to use the new hooks.
Changes in how process_data and process_formdata are called:
- process_data no longer accepts the has_formdata parameter.
- At form instantiation time, process_data will be called only once for each field. If a model object is provided which contains the property, then this value is used. Otherwise, a keyword argument if specified is used. Failing that, the field's default value is used.
- If any form data is sent, process_formdata will be called after process_data for each field. If no form data is available for the given field, it is called with an empty list.
wtforms.ext.django has been overhauled, both to mirror features and changes of the Django 1.0 release, and to add some useful fields for working with django ORM data in forms.
The checker keyword argument to SelectField, SelectMultipleField, and RadioField has been renamed to coerce to reflect the actual functionality of this callable.
Released January 13th, 2009.
- We have documentation and unit tests!
- Fields now have a flags property which contain boolean flags that are set either by the field itself or validators being specified on a field. The flags can then be used in checks in template or python code.
- Changed the way fields take parameters, they are no longer quasi magic. This is a breaking change. Please see the documentation for the new syntax.
- Added optional description argument to Field, accessible on the field as description. This provides an easy way to define e.g. help text in the same place as the form.
- Added new semantics for validators which can stop the validation chain, with or without errors.
- Added a regexp validator, and removed the not_empty validator in favour of two validators, optional and required. The new validators allow control over the validation chain in addition to checking emptiness.
- Renamed wtforms.contrib to wtforms.ext and reorganised wtforms.ext.django. This is a breaking change if you were using the django extensions, but should only require changing your imports around a little.
- Better support for other frameworks such as Pylons.
Released July 25th, 2008.
- Initial release.
