Project description

Tracking Fields

https://travis-ci.org/makinacorpus/django-tracking-fields.png https://coveralls.io/repos/makinacorpus/django-tracking-fields/badge.png?branch=master

A Django app allowing the tracking of objects field in the admin site.

Requirements

  • Django 2.2: See older versions for earlier version of Django.

  • django-cuser: Only if you want to track which user made the modifications.

Quick start

  1. Add “tracking_fields” to your INSTALLED_APPS settings.

  2. Add the tracking_fields.decorators.track decorator to your models with the fields you want to track as parameters:

    @track('test', 'm2m')
    class MyModel(models.Model):
        test = models.BooleanField('Test', default=True)
        m2m = models.ManyToManyField(SubModelTest, null=True)
  3. Your objects are now tracked. See the admin site for the tracking information.

  4. If you want to track who does the changes, please install the django-cuser app.

  5. You can also track fields of related objects:

    class MyModel(models.Model):
        test = models.BooleanField('Test', default=True)
    
    @track('related__test')
    class MyOtherModel(models.Model):
        related = models.ForeignKey(MyModel)
  6. You can run the tests with tox (make sure to have django-cuser installed).

Upgrades from 0.1 or 1.0.1

The change to UUID is a mess to do in a migration. The migrations have thus been squashed. You can either alter your fields by hand and do a fake migration afterward or remove your tracking fields tables and run migrations again:

./manage.py migrate --fake tracking_fields zero
./manage.py migrate tracking_fields
