35913	About the FormSet class name generated through the formset_factory.	Antoliny	Antoliny	"When you define Django Form, what format do you usually name it?
In my case, I usually name it ""xxxForm"".
The names of the forms used as examples in official documents related to Django Form are the same as my name define format.
{{{
# Working with forms docs.
class ContactForm(forms.Form):
    subject = forms.CharField(max_length=100)
    message = forms.CharField(widget=forms.Textarea)
    sender = forms.EmailField()
    cc_myself = forms.BooleanField(required=False)

# Working with forms docs.
class ArticleForm(forms.Form):
    title = forms.CharField()
    pub_date = forms.DateField()

# FormField docs.
class CommentForm(forms.Form):
    name = forms.CharField()
    url = forms.URLField()
    comment = forms.CharField()
}}}
The way django people name it may be based on the developers' tendencies or tastes, but I think most of them are built in the format as xxxForm.
The FormSet class I created by passing xxxForm name format to the formset_factory is named as follows.
{{{
>>> ArticleFormSet = formset_factory(ArticleForm)
>>> ArticleFormSet.__name__
'ArticleFormFormSet'
}}}
The name of the FormSet class created through the formset_factory in the form xxxForm name format is a little strange.
This is because when formset_factory creates a class through type, it adds a static ""FormSet"" to the form name.
{{{
def formset_factory(
    form,
    formset=BaseFormSet,
    extra=1,
    can_order=False,
    can_delete=False,
    max_num=None,
    validate_max=False,
    min_num=None,
    validate_min=False,
    absolute_max=None,
    can_delete_extra=True,
    renderer=None,
):
    ...
    return type(form.__name__ + ""FormSet"", (formset,), attrs)
}}}
I wonder if the format of these names is intended :)
