[1.7.x] Fixes a race condition in the documentation.
The example for django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.get_form modifies
self.exclude. However, since ModelAdmin instances are global and have no
thread- or request-locality, this is not safe for concurrent
requests.[1] This updated documentation demonstrates a safe method to
override admin forms on a per-request basis.

@ -1475,16 +1475,20 @@ templates used by the :class:`ModelAdmin` views:
|
|||
Returns a :class:`~django.forms.ModelForm` class for use in the admin add
|
||||
and change views, see :meth:`add_view` and :meth:`change_view`.
|
||||
|
||||
If you wanted to hide a field from non-superusers, for example, you could
|
||||
override ``get_form`` as follows::
|
||||
The base implementation uses :func:`~django.forms.models.modelform_factory`
|
||||
to subclass :attr:`~form`, modified by attributes such as :attr:`~fields`
|
||||
and :attr:`~exclude`. So, for example, if you wanted to offer additional
|
||||
fields to superusers, you could swap in a different base form like so::
|
||||
|
||||
class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
|
||||
def get_form(self, request, obj=None, **kwargs):
|
||||
self.exclude = []
|
||||
if not request.user.is_superuser:
|
||||
self.exclude.append('field_to_hide')
|
||||
if request.user.is_superuser:
|
||||
kwargs['form'] = MySuperuserForm
|
||||
return super(MyModelAdmin, self).get_form(request, obj, **kwargs)
|
||||
|
||||
You may also simply return a custom :class:`~django.forms.ModelForm` class
|
||||
directly.
