dj-ref Attributes are not converted

[NiclasWil]

When I'm adding dj-ref Attributes to my HTML in Bootstrap Studio then theses references are never processed.
They remain in HTML Tag as attributes
Input File

<div class="ms-3">
    <h4 class="w-auto" dj-ref="conversationname">$$Conversation Name$$</h4>
    <p dj-ref="conversation.last_message">$$Nullam id dolor id nibh ultricies vehicula ut id elit. Cras justo odio, dapibus ac facilisis in, egestas eget quam. Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus.$$</p>
</div>

Output File

<div class="ms-3">
      <h4 class="w-auto" dj-ref="conversationname">
              $$Conversation Name$$
       </h4>
       <p dj-ref="conversation.last_message">
              $$Nullam id dolor id nibh ultricies vehicula ut id elit. Cras justo odio, dapibus ac facilisis in, egestas eget quam. Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus.$$
       </p>
</div>

All other tags i used so far instead of dj-ref are working fine. The problem seems to be TagConverter.convert() since replace_ref is never called

def convert(self):
      with open(self._filename, encoding='utf8') as htmlstream:
         self._bs = BeautifulSoup(htmlstream.read(), 'html.parser')
         
      self.remove_for_data()
      self.replace_include_tag()
      
      for tag in self.ENCLOSED_TAG:
         self.extend_tag(tag, before=True, after=True)
   
      for tag in self.REPLACE_TAG:
         self.extend_tag(tag)
   
      for tag in self.TAG_LINK:
         self.replace_links(tag)      

      content = self.replace_background_img(self.beautiful_soup.prettify())
      content = html.unescape(content)
      
      if self._loadStatic:
         content = f"{{% load static %}}\n\n{content}"
         
      self._bs = None
            
      return content

I could check the issue and create a PR for this. But not sure if this is the main issue (not tested yet)

But I'm not used to qork with QT and able to test

I see your bug post, I will fix it maybe in a few days. Will post back here. Unless you want to fix it ? It's simple Python / Pyqt5 code.

[NiclasWil]

I added the line of Code i think would fix this bug. But I'm not able to test it properly. When i use pyinstaller to create a exe File the Path from BSS is not taken as Parameter. Seems to be an issue how i used pyinstaller because the python console is launching in background.

If i want to test manually I'm not able to instantiate the classes correctly since there are QT ExportMapper Objects needed for Fileconverter ect.

So i think I'm not used to QT enough yet to Test. Even if i create a batch that is calling bss_to_django.py from Bootstrap Studio something goes wrong that i can't figure out. So maybe you could provider me some Details how to test or you fix it, whenever there is time.

But great Tool so far helps a lot to migrate to django 😀

@NiclasWil Yes, you are right. It's such a rough tool that you must dev on it to fix things. I just wrote these instructions for stoic here:

#6 (comment)

That will get you up and running as a developer. But let me run some ideas by you:

• Codegen support:
  1. Automatically creating a URL entry for each page and a basic render view for that template.
  2. If there is a form, automatically generating a basic form in Django. If dj-crispy=1 then use Crispy forms.
  3. It could also even generate the basic error-handling structure of a view that handles the POST request of a form.
  4. AJAX + BSS + Django. Codegen on both JS and Python side for handling modern web design (AJAX methods).
  5. Automatic creation of the default Django login system given that you put in an accounts-related widget in BSS.

BTW, to debug on this, there should be a requirements.txt as part of the project. Then you'd do:

pip install -r requirements.txt from within BootstrapStudioToDjango folder.

If not, then you'll at least need to do pip install pyqt5 and see that it goes through successfully.

@NiclasWil Do you need any more guidance on this?
