When defining and using a model mixin like so:
{{{
class ModelMixin(Model):
class Meta:
abstract = True
def __init_subclass__(cls) -> None:
super().__init_subclass__()
breakpoint()
cls._my_setup_func()https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/35827#
class TestModel(ModelMixin):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
}}}
The __init_subclass__ call will be first called when the class is created
here:
https://github.com/django/django/blob/main/django/db/models/base.py#L120
However the meta is attached here:
https://github.com/django/django/blob/main/django/db/models/base.py#L143
So during the __init_subclass call you will have the superclass' meta
object if you try to access it.
