How can I filter a queryset inside the Admin page of an object that has a
ManyToManyField relation with a manually defined through model?
Given models.py
class Foo(models.Model):
foo_field1 = models.CharField(max_length=50)
class Main(models.Model):
main_field1 = models.CharField(max_length=50)
m2mfield = models.ManyToManyField(Foo, through="FooBar")
class FooBar(models.Model):
main = models.ForeignKey(Main, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
foo = models.ForeignKey(Foo, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
new_field = models.CharField(max_length=50)
Inside admin.py
class M2MInlineAdmin(admin.TabularInline):
model = Main.m2mfield.through
extra = 1
class MainAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
inlines = [M2MInlineAdmin,]
...
def formfield_for_manytomany(self, db_field, request, **kwargs):
print('called formfield_for_manytomany')
return super().formfield_for_manytomany(db_field, request, **kwargs)
def get_field_queryset(self, db, db_field, request):
print('called get_field_queryset')
return super().get_field_queryset(db, db_field, request)
I try to access both of these methods, but none of them are called if I
specify a through table. However, they do get called if the ManyToMany
relation is simply defined as like this:
class Main(models.Model):
main_field1 = models.CharField(max_length=50)
m2mfield = models.ManyToManyField(Foo)
Is there a method to filter the queryset when a through table is specified
(while being able to access the request context)?
