How can I add a custom filter to django admin (the filters that appear on the right side of a model dashboard)? I know its easy to include a filter based on a field of that model, but what about a "calculated" field like this:
class NewsItem(models.Model):
headline = models.CharField(max_length=4096, blank=False)
byline_1 = models.CharField(max_length=4096, blank=True)
dateline = models.DateTimeField(help_text=_("date/time that appears on article"))
body_copy = models.TextField(blank=False)
when_to_publish = models.DateTimeField(verbose_name="When to publish", blank=True, null=True)
# HOW CAN I HAVE "is_live" as part of the admin filter? It's a calculated state!!
def is_live(self):
if self.when_to_publish is not None:
if ( self.when_to_publish < datetime.now() ):
return """ <img alt="True" src="/media/img/admin/icon-yes.gif"/> """
else:
return """ <img alt="False" src="/media/img/admin/icon-no.gif"/> """
is_live.allow_tags = True
class NewsItemAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
form = NewsItemAdminForm
list_display = ('headline', 'id', 'is_live')
list_filter = ('is_live') # how can i make this work??
Thanks to gpilotino for giving me the push into the right direction for implementing this.
I noticed the question's code is using a datetime to figure out when its live . So I used the DateFieldFilterSpec and subclassed it.
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.admin.filterspecs import FilterSpec, ChoicesFilterSpec,DateFieldFilterSpec
from django.utils.encoding import smart_unicode
from django.utils.translation import ugettext as _
from datetime import datetime
class IsLiveFilterSpec(DateFieldFilterSpec):
"""
Adds filtering by future and previous values in the admin
filter sidebar. Set the is_live_filter filter in the model field attribute
'is_live_filter'. my_model_field.is_live_filter = True
"""
def __init__(self, f, request, params, model, model_admin):
super(IsLiveFilterSpec, self).__init__(f, request, params, model,
model_admin)
today = datetime.now()
self.links = (
(_('Any'), {}),
(_('Yes'), {'%s__lte' % self.field.name: str(today),
}),
(_('No'), {'%s__gte' % self.field.name: str(today),
}),
)
def title(self):
return "Is Live"
# registering the filter
FilterSpec.filter_specs.insert(0, (lambda f: getattr(f, 'is_live_filter', False),
IsLiveFilterSpec))
To use you can put the above code into a filters.py, and import it in the model you want to add the filter to
you have to write a custom FilterSpec (not documentend anywhere). Look here for an example:
http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/1051/
In current django development version there is the support for custom filters: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/
The user supplies goods to some countries postage free. I wanted to filter those countries:
All - all countries, Yes - postage free, No - charged postage.
The main answer for this question did not work for me (Django 1.3) I think because there was no field_path parameter provided in the __init__ method. Also it subclassed DateFieldFilterSpec. The postage field is a FloatField
from django.contrib.admin.filterspecs import FilterSpec
class IsFreePostage(FilterSpec):
def __init__(self, f, request, params, model, model_admin, field_path=None):
super(IsFreePostage, self).__init__(f, request, params, model,
model_admin, field_path)
self.removes = {
'Yes': ['postage__gt'],
'No': ['postage__exact'],
'All': ['postage__exact', 'postage__gt'] }
self.links = (
('All', {}),
('Yes', {'postage__exact': 0}),
('No', {'postage__gt': 0}))
if request.GET.has_key('postage__exact'):
self.ttl = 'Yes'
elif request.GET.has_key('postage__gt'):
self.ttl = 'No'
else:
self.ttl = 'All'
def choices(self, cl):
for title, param_dict in self.links:
yield {'selected': title == self.ttl,
'query_string': cl.get_query_string(param_dict,
self.removes[title]),
'display': title}
def title(self):
return 'Free Postage'
FilterSpec.filter_specs.insert(0,
(lambda f: getattr(f, 'free_postage', False), IsFreePostage))
In self.links we supply dicts. used to construct HTTP query strings like ?postage__exact=0 for each of the possible filters. Filters I think are cumulative so if there was a previous request for 'No' and now we have a request for 'Yes' we have to remove the 'No' query. self.removes specifies what needs to be removed for each query. The choices method constructs the query strings, says which filter has been selected and sets the displayed name of the filter.
You can't, unfortunately. Currently non-field items can not be used as list_filter entries.
Note that your admin class wouldn't have worked even if it was a field, as a single-item tuple needs a comma: ('is_live',)
Just a sidenote: You can use the deafult ticks on Django admin more easily like this:
def is_live(self):
if self.when_to_publish is not None:
if ( self.when_to_publish < datetime.now() ):
return True
else:
return False
is_live.boolean = True
