Re: post_save signal getting called twice !
further, i tried putting a sender argument in receiver, but the sender , i found (by set_trace) is Cart_cartitems, how can i import this when its only a intermediary model that django's creating.

If the M2M relationship is changed as well, then the m2m_changed signal is triggered. Your handler for this then re-saves the Cart instance after denormalising data, which triggers the post save signal for a second time. You should probably connect the M2M receiver to a specific sender too, currently it will fire whenever any M2M on any model is changed. Keeping denormalized data like that is a pain, could you do without it, and re-calculate it where necessary? Alternatively, you could use a named intermediary M2M relationship: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/topics/db/models/#intermediary-manytomany and connect signals on post_create and post_delete to the intermediary model, updating the Cart as necessary. This is a little more logical, since you wish to denormalise the data whenever an item is added to or removed from a cart, ie whenever a row is added or deleted to the intermediate table. Naming the relationship allows you to connect the signals to the right place. Cheers Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

post_save signal getting called twice !
Hi I am using django version 1.4.3 I am using two signals in my models.py one is m2m_changed, so i can have a counter field (numcounter) of number of m2m fields attached, and another is post_save so i can decide whether to have a OneToOneField (cartrule, is to be applied only if there are more than 2 fields) or not. my models.py is: class CartItem(models.Model): content_type= models.ForeignKey(ContentType) object_id = models.PositiveIntegerField() content_object = generic.GenericForeignKey(' content_type','object_id') quantity= models.PositiveIntegerField(default=0) is_abandoned= models.BooleanField(default=False) created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) update_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) def __str__(self): return self.content_object.name class CartRule(models.Model): ##some field pass class Cart(models.Model): cart_id = models.CharField(max_length=50, null=False) customer= models.ForeignKey(Customer,null=True,blank=True) cartitems = models.ManyToManyField(CartItem,null=True) created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) update_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) cartrule = models.OneToOneField(crapclass,null=True,blank=True) num_cartitem= models.IntegerField() def __str__(self): return self.cart_id @receiver(post_save, sender=Cart) def apply_condition(sender,instance,created,raw,using,*args,**kwargs): # i want to decide here if num_cartitem is greater than 2 its ok to have a cartrule pass @receiver(m2m_changed) def save_cartitem_counter(sender, instance, signal,*args, **kwargs): if kwargs['action'] == 'post_add': instance.num_cartitem = instance.cartitems.all().count() instance.save() the issue is apply_condition gets called twice, with similar value of args, first with older value of m2m (cartitem) field in Cart, the other time with the values i intended to save I looked into older post but still could not figure out the whys.How should i go about this ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
