Avoiding the ThreadLocals hack - anything new in NewForms-Admin?
I was reading this page http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/CookBookThreadlocalsAndUser and was wondering how the advice on avoiding the hack applied to my own use case. I am using the ThreadLocals hack to get the current user in a model when overriding the save() method. Therefore I can't pass in the user as I can't control how save() is called. On a higher level my goal is to limit the Admin changelist to only show the objects associated with the current user. I am using NewForms-Admin so was hoping that there are new ways to achieve this but after a bit of head scratching and source-code reading nothing has leapt out at me. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
