Comment (by jarrow):
With the current default values for the ModelForm Meta class options the
admin shows the delete checkbox and removes the file from disk. It does
not remove empty directories. To enable this in the admin one currently
needs to do something like this:
{{{
#!python
class TestModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
def get_form(self, request, obj=None, **kwargs):
defaults = {
"files_delete_empty_dirs": True,
}
defaults.update(kwargs)
return super(TestModelAdmin, self).get_form(request, obj,
**defaults)
}}}
Maybe a settings option to make deletion of empty dirs the default would
be nice. Or we could add a files_delete_empty_dirs option to the
ModelAdmin class and pass it to the ModelForm (like we do with exclude
etc.).
