README says 1.8, setup.py says 3+. Which one is it?

Here is what I get for default login form:

      <label class="control-label  {{ no such element: django.contrib.auth.forms.AuthenticationForm object['required_css_class'] }}" for="id_username">Username</label>

Hi there,

Thanks for making this library.

I was expecting to use the lib by simply pip installing it and adding bootstrapform_jinja to INSTALLED_APPS, but unfortunately this plug-in-and-play doesn't seem to work in my environment.

I got the following 2 issues:

1. The filters ( bootstrap, etc ) are not registered to the Jinja Environment object, which caused the error ("No filter named 'bootstrap'.",)
2. After manual registering of the filters, bootstrapform_jinja was not processed by the Jinja backend, which caused the error Invalid block tag on line 1: 'import'. Did you forget to register or load this tag?

My Jinja configuration was based on the example in the Django official doc here
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/topics/templates/#django.template.backends.jinja2.Jinja2

from django.templatetags.static import static
from django.urls import reverse
from jinja2 import Environment

def environment(**options):
    env = Environment(**options)
    env.globals.update({
        'static': static,
        'url': reverse,
    })
    return env

And this environment was registered in the Django TEMPLATES settings like

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.jinja2.Jinja2',
        ...
        'OPTIONS': {
            'environment': '__path_to_the_above_file__.environment',
            ...
        },
    },
   ...
]

To solve 1st issue, I tried attaching the internal filters to the env returned, like this

from django_jinja.library import _update_env

def environment(**options):
    env = Environment(**options)
    # ...
    _update_env(env)
    return env

Now came the 2nd error. This time I tried adding the path of bootstrapform_jinja/templates in TEMPLATES, like this

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.jinja2.Jinja2',
        'DIRS': ['/absolute/path/to/venv/site-packages/bootstrapform_jinja/templates',
                 'TEMPLATES FOLDER OF OTHER APPS', ...],
    },
   ...
]

And now it works. Though, neither of those changes looks good to be pushed into production environment.

Wonder how I was supposed to use this library. Any help is appreciated.

UPDATE:

I was using Python 3.9.7, along with

asgiref==3.5.2
Babel==2.10.3
Django==4.1.1
django-filter==22.1
django-jinja==2.10.2
django-jinja-bootstrap-form==4.3.5
Jinja2==3.1.2
MarkupSafe==2.1.1
pytz==2022.2.1
sqlparse==0.4.2

template:

bootstrapform/form.jinja

was not found.

I'm using Django 1.11.4 all the packages are at the latest version.

Not really sure from where this error arise...

 {% csrf_token %}
 {{ form|bootstrap_inline }}
 <div class="form-group">
    <div class="col-sm-10 col-sm-offset-2">
        <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
    </div>
</div>

The README says "Python >=3.5", but the setup.py says 3.8 only. Which is the supported version range?

It would be easier to install and keep track of requirements with pip.
