Given a User based on AbstractUser and a model:
{{{
class DestinationConfig(model.Model):
class Meta:
constraints = [models.UniqueConstraint(fields=["user",
"settings"], name="unique_destination_per_user")]
user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
settings = models.JSONField()
}}}
Admin like so:
{{{
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin as BaseUserAdmin
class DestinationConfigInline(admin.TabularInline):
model = DestinationConfig
ordering = ["media", "label"]
extra = 1
def get_formset(self, request, obj=None, **kwargs):
self.parent_obj = obj
return super(DestinationConfigInline, self).get_formset(request,
obj, **kwargs)
def get_queryset(self, request):
qs = super(DestinationConfigInline, self).get_queryset(request)
return qs.filter(user=self.parent_obj)
class UserAdmin(BaseUserAdmin):
inlines = [DestinationConfigInline]
admin.site.register(User, UserAdmin)
}}}
Then attempting to save a change to a specific user leads to a traceback
like this:

Exception Value: unhashable type: 'dict'
}}}
* `row_data` was `('user', {'email_address':
'[email protected]', 'html': True})`
* `seen_data` was `set()`.
Is it a design decision that JSONFields cannot be unique/in
UniqueConstraints?
* If yes, can it be documented, preferably with a note as to what to do if
you *do* want a unique JSONField?
* If no, can validate_unique be changed to work in this instance?
This has also been tested on:
* Django Version: 4.2.11
* Python Version: 3.10.14
