Hidden

@wq/material’s <Hidden/> input component is entirely invisible, unless there is a validation error specific to the field. Use Hidden when you want a field to be present in the Serializer output but not in the form.

# myapp/models.py
from django.db import models

class Survey(models.Model):
    hidden_field = models.CharField(
        max_length=10,
        default=somehow_determine_default,
    )


# myapp/serializers.py
from wq.db.rest.serializers import ModelSerializer
from rest_framework import serializers
from .models import Survey

class SurveySerializer(ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model = Survey
        fields = '__all__'
        wq_field_config = {
            'hidden_field': {'control': {'appearance': 'hidden'}},
        }


# myapp/rest.py
from .models import Survey
from .serializers import SurveySerializer

rest.router.register_model(
    Survey,
    serializer=SurveySerializer,
)
