Ok I managed to remove the compilatore field from the form (this RowModelAdmin class is used by many Models, all having the compilatore field) def get_form(self, request, obj=None, **kwargs): form = super(RowModelAdmin, self).get_form(request, obj, **kwargs) if not request.user.is_superuser: del form.base_fields['compilatore'] return form
Now the form validation sequence complains because the compilatore field is
part of the model and thus may not be empty (it's a ForeignKey to
auth.models.User).
I'm trying to override or customize the form.is_valid() method, so then I
will implement a
def save_model(self, request, obj, form, change):
obj = form.save(commit=False)
if obj.compilatore == None:
obj.compilatore = request.user.id
obj.save()
Another way I tried was defining a RowModelForm for the RowModelAdmin
(adding "form = RowModelForm" in RowModelAdmin) class instead of impementing
get_form:
class RowModelForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
exclude = ('compilatore',)
def validate(self):
pass
def clean(self):
pass
def clean_compilatore(self):
return True
But I still get the same error as above.
How can I hook to the validation process to tell it "close an eye on
compilatore being missing (when it is missing), I will add it later?"
