#16583: Explicitly passing a date to a DateTimeField in a model's create method should override auto_now_add -----------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: ian | Owner: nobody Type: Bug | Status: new Milestone: | Component: Database layer (models, ORM) Version: 1.3 | Severity: Normal Keywords: | Triage Stage: Unreviewed Has patch: 0 | Easy pickings: 0 UI/UX: 0 | -----------------+---------------------------------------------- I'm writing some unit tests where I'm testing specific logic based on DateTimeFields in a model. When I use the .create() method on the model, I pass in a specific datetime to the DateTimeField but it gets ignored and overwritten by the auto_now_add functionality.
The only way I can do what I want is by first creating, then altering the value on the DateTimeField, then saving a second time to override. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/16583> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
