Provide example (or support?) for using an EnumField directly in a form

[johnthagen]

Django provides Form fields that can be used directly in Form objects.

Does django-enumfields provide an EnumField that can be used directly in a form like:

from django import forms
import enumfields

class MyForm(forms.Form):
    my_enum = enumfields.  # ... ?

I can get it to work if I put an enumfields.EnumIntegerField into a Model and then use a ModelForm, but if I just want to create a Form without a Model I couldn't figure out how to do this.

I'm happy to submit a PR with an example if someone could teach me how to do this. :)

enumfields.EnumField(MyEnum).formfield() should work. :)

@akx Thanks! If I submitted a PR with a small example on how to use enumfields directly in a Form, would you accept? I think this is something that could help others in the future.

Of course! There's no such thing as too much documentation!

(Provided the documentation is correct -- documentation-wise, can't think of a worse thing than docs that outright lie, but that usually happens due to rot, so not the point here. :-) )
