I have some columns that are repeated in multiple models. is there any solution to place them somewhere and use it any model?
You can achieve this by creating base classes and inheriting them in your models.
Example:
class TimestampsModel(models.Model):
@classmethod
def get_fields(cls, fields: tuple):
return fields.__add__(('created_at', 'updated_at'))
created_at = models.DateTimeField(("created_at"), auto_now_add=True)
updated_at = models.DateTimeField(("updated_at"), auto_now=True)
You can also make it abstract and Django won't create migrations for this.
class Meta:
abstract = True
Finally, a model would be:
class Blog(baseModels.TimestampsModel):
class Meta:
db_table = "blog"
title = models.CharField(max_length=100)
