Database audit fields in Django

[Sujata Aghor]

I am looking to create a database audit fields such as 'created by' , ' modified by', 'created on time', ' modified on time' and Archive table where i can see the changes over the time about perticular row.

this was possible in web2py automatically. Does anyone knows any such thing exist in Django?

Any idea will be a gr8 help.

Thanks

Hello,

You must create it over models.py. please Take a Look Here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2771676/django-datetime-issues-default-datetime-now

Another field Like Lastchangefromuser you must created it AS onetoone field in models.py and in Views you can Insert requests.user to fill current User...

When you have further questions please wrote me

Regards

There are many things available "by default" in other frameworks; but Django has chose to keep the core focused on doing key things well (I won't say "simple").  For everything else, the plugin/app approach can be used to support your project's specific needs.

So "auditing" is actually a complex issue and no one person or organisation will define this the same way.  However, there are some good apps out there that might support at least some of what you need; for example:

https://github.com/treyhunner/django-simple-history

https://github.com/jjkester/django-auditlog

I'd look at those before considering writing any code yourself.
