#29505: Impossible to set a Field's default value to a callable -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Eugene | Owner: nobody Pakhomov | Type: | Status: new Uncategorized | Component: Database | Version: 2.0 layer (models, ORM) | Severity: Normal | Keywords: default Triage Stage: | Has patch: 0 Unreviewed | Needs documentation: 0 | Needs tests: 0 Patch needs improvement: 0 | Easy pickings: 1 UI/UX: 0 | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- I'm trying to use https://github.com/cognitect/transit-python and I created a custom `KeywordField` for this. The problem is that `transit.transit_types.Keyword` is a callable. Now, even if I override `_get_default` in `KeywordField`, it still won't work because `django.db.backends.base.schema.BaseDatabaseSchemaEditor#effective_default` checks the value again.
I think a simple fix would be to remove this check from `effective_default` and immediately make a call where it's necessary (`datetime.date` etc). -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/29505> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
