Hi,
We are using Django for our ecommerce site.
I have some confusion on when the code gets executed in Django. I have a
django form with a choice field in module m1.py:
class SomeForm(forms.Form):
field = forms.ChoiceField(choices=get_choices())
def get_choices():
return some choices
In views.py, I have imported SomeForm:
from app.m1 import SomeForm
class SomeFormView(Formview):
form = SomeForm
...rest of the view code
When I run the django project using ./manage.py runserver, I am surprised
to see that get_choices gets executed. This is undesirable as I can have a
Django queryset in get_choices and I do not want unnecessary DB access.
It would be really helpful if someone can shed some light on the above and
tell me what exactly is happening. How can I avoid get_choices getting
executed during django start or running? get_choices should only get
executed when SomeFormView is accessed.
Thanks.
