Comment (by jarshwah):
Below is probably the way to go. We haven't done 0-arity Func expressions
before though, so there may be some hidden traps waiting. It'd go in
django.db.models.functions.py
{{{
class Now(Func):
template = 'CURRENT_TIMESTAMP()'
def __init__(self, output_field=DateTimeField(), **extra):
super(Func, self).__init__(output_field=output_field, **extra)
}}}
This should (famous last words) be a relatively straight forward patch.
I'd encourage someone that wants to get some basic familiarity with the
ORM and expressions in general to have a go at implementing.
