Thanks Tom for this info I have adjusted the models .py as such.. from django.db import models
class ModelManagerReadOnly(model.Manager): def update(self, *args, **kwargs): pass class ModelReadOnly(models.Model): objects = ModelManagerReadOnly() # The ReadOnly manager. def save(self, *args, **kwargs): pass #raise NotImplemented def delete(self, *args, **kwargs): pass class Meta: managed = False abstract = True class AppLog(ModelReadOnly): log_no = models.AutoField(db_column=u'LOG_NO') # Field name made lowercase. module_id = models.CharField(max_length=25, db_column=u'MODULE_ID') # Field name made lowercase. user_name = models.CharField(max_length=25, db_column=u'USER_NAME') # Field name made lowercase. full_name = models.CharField(max_length=80, db_column=u'FULL_NAME') # Field name made lowercase. description = models.CharField(max_length=3500, db_column=u'DESCRIPTION', blank=True) # Field name made lowercase. date_time_stamp = models.DateTimeField(db_column=u'DATE_TIME_STAMP') # Field name made lowercase. class Meta(ModelReadOnly.Meta): db_table = u'APP_LOG' On Monday, 29 October 2012 11:41:26 UTC+2, Tom Evans wrote: > > On Mon, Oct 29, 2012 at 8:44 AM, Gregg Branquinho > <gr...@freightman.com<javascript:>> > wrote: > > from django.db import models > > > > > > class ModelManagerReadOnly(model.Manager): > > def update(self, *args, **kwargs): > > pass > > > > > > class ModelReadOnly(models.Model): > > objects = ModelManagerReadOnly() # The ReadOnly manager. > > > > def save(self, *args, **kwargs): > > pass > > #raise NotImplemented > > > > def delete(self, *args, **kwargs): > > pass > > > > class Meta: > > managed = False > > abstract = True > > > > > > > > class AppLog(ModelReadOnly): > > log_no = models.AutoField(db_column=u'LOG_NO') # Field name made > > lowercase. > > module_id = models.CharField(max_length=25, db_column=u'MODULE_ID') > # > > Field name made lowercase. > > user_name = models.CharField(max_length=25, db_column=u'USER_NAME') > # > > Field name made lowercase. > > full_name = models.CharField(max_length=80, db_column=u'FULL_NAME') > # > > Field name made lowercase. > > description = models.CharField(max_length=3500, > > db_column=u'DESCRIPTION', blank=True) # Field name made lowercase. > > date_time_stamp = models.DateTimeField(db_column=u'DATE_TIME_STAMP') > # > > Field name made lowercase. > > class Meta: > > db_table = u'APP_LOG' > > If you derive a model from a base class, and want the base class's > Meta class to have an effect, you must derive the child class's Meta > class from the base class's Meta class: > > https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/topics/db/models/#meta-inheritance > > The net result is that with your current code, the 'managed' attribute > on the Meta class does not exist on the derived classes. > > Cheers > > Tom > -- Email Disclaimer <http://www.freightman.com/Legal/EmailDisclaimer> | Quote Disclaimer <http://www.freightman.com//Legal/QuoteDisclaimer> | All business is undertaken subject to our General Trading Conditions, a copy of which is available on request and on our website www.freightman.com<http://www.freightman.com/Legal/TradingTerms> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
