I have the following class:

class Carro(models.Model):    
    valor = models.DecimalField(max_digits=8, decimal_places=2, default=0)

And its respective form:

class CarroForm(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta():
        model = Carro
        fields = ['valor']

When printing the form in the template one appears input of the kind number:

<input id="id_valor" name="valor" step="0.01" type="number" value="0">

The question is how to allow this field to accept point and comma values? Currently only accepting decimal separation (ex: 1253.00), I would like you to accept separation from thousands using point (ex: 1.253,00). What is the correct solution for this case? The idea is in the input the value come in currency format (1.253,00) and in the bank store as normal decimal (1253.00).

To accept point in the thousand separation just put localize=True in the field, in the template Django will print the input guy text:

class CarroForm(forms.ModelForm):
    valor = forms.DecimalField(max_digits=8, decimal_places=2, localize=True)
    class Meta():
        model = Carro
        fields = ['valor']

What worked for me was this:

py Settings.

DECIMAL_SEPARATOR = ','
USE_THOUSAND_SEPARATOR = True

Function __init__ form

def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
    super(SeuForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
    self.fields['campo'].localize = True
    self.fields['campo'].widget.is_localized = True
