Django - Field attributes in widget context

As I am using some more exotic css framework I would like to change the behaviour of the text input (provide it with label etc. by default).

• I have overridden the template in django/forms/widgets/input.html

Unfortunately the widget context is missing the field, so I cannot use field properties like help_text, label, etc in my template. Therefore I would need to override the TextInput widget.

My two options are now:

• Setting my own widget class for every single field in my Form / Modelform classes

• Using My custom ModelForm which iterates all the fields in __init__ and replaces the widget.

• Is there any better way to override django's default text_input widget?

• Does is there any other way to get field.errors and field.label into the widget (Or is there a reason why there is no label in the widget context)?
