#models
class Product(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=255)
slug = models.SlugField()
description = models.TextField(null=True, blank=True)
introduction = models.TextField(null=True, blank=True)
unit_price = models.DecimalField(
max_digits=12,
decimal_places=2,
validators=[MinValueValidator(1)])
inventory = models.IntegerField(validators=[MinValueValidator(0)])
last_update = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True)
collection = models.ForeignKey(Collection, on_delete=models.PROTECT, related_name='products')
promotions = models.ManyToManyField(Promotion, blank=True)
def __str__(self) -> str:
return self.title
class Meta:
ordering = ['title']
class ProductAttributes(models.Model):
Product = models.ForeignKey(Product, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name="attributes")
attribute = models.CharField(max_length=255)
#admin
class ProductAttributesInline(admin.TabularInline):
model = models.ProductAttributes
@admin.register(models.Product)
class ProductAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
autocomplete_fields = ['collection']
prepopulated_fields = {
'slug': ['title']
}
actions = ['clear_inventory']
inlines = [ProductAttributesInline]
list_display = ['title', 'unit_price',
'inventory_status', 'collection_title']
list_editable = ['unit_price']
list_filter = ['collection', 'last_update', InventoryFilter]
list_per_page = 10
list_select_related = ['collection']
search_fields = ['title']
def collection_title(self, product):
return product.collection.title
@admin.display(ordering='inventory')
def inventory_status(self, product):
if product.inventory < 10:
return 'Low'
return 'OK'
@admin.action(description='Clear inventory')
def clear_inventory(self, request, queryset):
updated_count = queryset.update(inventory=0)
self.message_user(
request,
f'{updated_count} products were successfully updated.',
messages.ERROR
)
class Media:
css = {
'all': ['store/style.css']
}
the ProductAttributes isnt shown in Product admin
in the orginal project i created another inline for ProductImage and its working but when i try to delete that inline its not gone from product admin
Firstly, do not forget checking all migrations, and It would be more good to keep your models in models.py and do not mix them with admin related changes. I would recommend you to write them in admin.py.
You can use both images and attributes like that:
class ProductAttributesInlineAdmin(admin.TabularInline):
model = ProductAttributes
extra = 2
@admin.register(models.Product)
class ProductAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
...
inlines = [ProductAttributesInlineAdmin, ProductImageInlineAdmin]
