Always uppercase a field value

Frappe Framework Customization
1

Hi.

I am very new to frappe.io and ERPNext. I want to create a field in the docType which converts all letters to uppercase. What would the best approach be to that? I can convert the value in validate function on the server script. Also I want to apply a style “text-transform: uppercase” to the input. How can I easily get the element from DOM in client script? I tried this:

> frappe.ui.form.on('Project', {
> 	onload_post_render: function(frm) {
>         $("form>.frappe-control input").css("text-transform", "uppercase");
> 	}
> });

This works but only in full page form. It does not work in modal form when I click the “New” button. To me it doesn’t look very elegant and I would like to address the element by field name somehow.

Many thanks
Regards
Darius

You can convert the input to uppercase on save, on server side. i.e validate method

I’m also new to frappe. I saw a name_case property for fields.

Write server script and you can use before insert like

if doc.city is not None:
doc.city = doc.city.strip()
doc.city = doc.city.title()

above is removing blank space too
