Aziz,

I had a similar need and I created my own middleware that checked the
request path and did the call when I got a match.

Re: Django call_command from Admin

[Aziz Mek]

Thank you Mdehs, 

Much appreciated for the advice,
I try to avoid signals as they are thread huggers but maybe i will 
or try to circumvent them somehow

Kind regards

Re: Django call_command from Admin

[Paul Kudla]

example for admin.py

def save_model(self, request, obj, form, change): #This will save create
#Check to see if this will be an invoice copy
copy = False
current_invoice = obj.invoice_number
		if obj.new_invoice :	#clear the flag and save the current object then 
set new & date

obj.new_invoice = False
obj.save()
copy = True

Re: Django call_command from Admin

[Paul Kudla]

you need to basically add a hook (save class) to your save model and 
process stuff along the way.


you will need to modify this example but it's how i update info when 
saving an scom email user for dovecot.


you can also override the admin class as well with something simaliar

Note :
super(EmailUsers, self).save(*args, **kwargs)  #Save the email changes

is extemely important as stuff will process but any field updates will 
not save without the above line..


example :


	def save(self, *args, **kwargs): #This will create an email account if 
nessesary.
		emailaddress = str(self.username) #Set the email address to see if we 
need to create the mailbox?
		emailpassword = str(self.password) #Set the password (used for check 
alias)


#prefill username/domain is blank
if self.domain == None or str(self.domain) == '' :
self.domain = self.username.split('@')[1]

if self.source == None or str(self.source) == '' :
self.source = self.username

if self.destination == None or str(self.destination) == '' :
self.destination = self.username




domain = str(self.domain)
send_settings = str(self.send_settings)
if self.send_settings == None :
send_settings = ''
self.send_settings = ''
dontupdate = self.dontupdate
self.dontupdate = False

#set dovecot directory & split user / domain
if self.username.split('@')[1] == 'preload.scom.ca' :
			self.home = '/data/dovecot/users/%s/%s' %( 
self.domain,self.destination.split('@')[0] )

else:
self.home = '/data/dovecot/users/%s/%s' %( 
self.domain,self.destination )

self.user = self.username.split('@')[0]

#Set alias Flag
if self.password == 'alias' or (self.source != 
self.destination) :
self.alias_flag = True
#self.sieve_forwards = ''
#self.vacation_active = False
else :
self.alias_flag = False

self.username_search = self.username
self.username_search = self.username_search.replace ('.','')
self.username_search = self.username_search.replace ('@','')


super(EmailUsers, self).save(*args, **kwargs)  #Save the email 
changes

i email with something like :

#Try to get info for this account
if dontupdate == False :

			imap_test = Dovecot_Command ('INFO',self.username) #do i have this 
account ?


if 'BAD' in imap_test.answer :
try : #Try to Create the account, note that the db must be updated 
properly before it will work

imap_create = Dovecot_Command 
('CM',self.username)
if 'OK' in imap_create.answer :
send_subject = 'Email Account

except :
send_subject = 'Error Account : %s'

Re: Django call_command from Admin

[Muhammad Juwaini Abdul Rahman]

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/ref/django-admin/#running-management-commands-from-your-code

I think it's quite straightforward. Just add call_command(command) after
(or before the save() line) in your code.

Depending on whether you're using FBV or CBV, you need to pinpoint where
exactly the save() function resides in your code.

Re: Django call_command from Admin

[Aziz Mek]

Hi Tega, 

Nice to meet you and apologies for the delay in getting back to you, 

Signals are both the best and worst. Yes, they'd "solve" this problem. 
Though so would overriding the model's save method or the admin's save 
method.

But the issue I find with them is that because they are decoupled from the 
model in a year, or the next dev, someone won't have a clue why an email is 
being sent or how to troubleshoot it.

My general guideline for using them is as a last resort. They are the lazy 
way of solving problems but will almost always cause different problems in 
the future.

Also you now have to be keenly aware of the circumstances where signals 
don't fire, also signals in my case will block the thread as the number of 
subscribers is big, 

Please let me know if you have different point of view, i am not dismissing 
any opinions


the management command is already written by another developer and i am 
trying to leave as few footprint in the code as I can, I am not even sure

if it is the right way to go about this. 

Will let you know how it pans out if you want.


Kind regards

Re: Django call_command from Admin

The name's Tega,

If I may ask you, what makes you favour making a management command as
opposed to creating a simple post_save signal in your present situation.

>From the django documentation, post_save is literally called on every save,
something similar to the Publisher Subscriber pattern.

I'd really appreciate your response on this.

Re: Django call_command from Admin

[Aziz Mek]

Hi 

Thank you very much for the  swift response and for the link, much 
appreciated.

I did have a look at that article this morning but it is using signals 
which will only add one more layer to my stack and
i think essentially does what call_command will do anyway.

I really appreciate your response

PS: I couldn't see your name in the email hence why I didn't address you by 
it, apologies

Kind regards
