form_kwargs and get_form_kwargs for inline forms missing

[dw-liedji]

Hello everyone.

Please, which parameter or method should one use if one wants to add parameter to inline forms at runtime or not. I have tried to use the formset_kwargs and setting the form_kwargs attribute of the formset_kwargs dictionary as shown in this section of the django-extra-views docs but it was not working as expected. I obtained the following error:

Exception Type: KeyError at /creditium/inventories/product-types/add/
Exception Value: 'form_kwargs'

Here is the full traceback:

Exception Value: 'form_kwargs'

So, can we fix this to allow passing parameter to inline forms ? In addition, having a simple interface called form_kwargs et get_form_kwargs for inline forms for doing that will be more easier and more consistent for passing parameters of inline forms at runtime or not.

hi,
can you show your code? Most likely you're doing something unexpected there.
