having issue on django admin. I want one of my foreign key field to be
searchable and I achieved that making it autocomplete.
{{{
class CollectionAdmin(VersionAdmin, admin.ModelAdmin):
form = CollectionForm
autocomplete_fields = ["task"]
}}}
I also filter that foreign key in ModelForm.
{{{
class CollectionForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Collection
fields = "__all__"
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
if self.fields.get("task"):
self.fields["task"].queryset =
self.fields["task"].queryset.filter(
status=TaskStatus.ASSIGNED
)
}}}
When task is not autocomplete field in Collection my filter works as
expected. However, when task is autocomplete field in Collection, filter
does not work. Instead of my filter in form, task admin get_queryset
method is called which is not what I want.
TaskAdmin get_queryset method just filters by user, however I want more
filter as you see above, for TaskStatus as well.
{{{
def get_queryset(self, request):
qs = super().get_queryset(request)
if
request.user.groups.filter(name=settings.COPYWRITER_GROUP).exists():
return qs.filter(assigned_to=request.user)
return qs
}}}
Repeating, form init filter works if field is not autocomplete.
I tried removing task from autocomplete of Collection and it worked. I
want my form filter not overridden if field is autocomplete.
