I have model created field configurated as follows:
created = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
In JSON fixtures I don't want to declare value for created, but when I try to load fixtures (loadata) I am getting error:
created may not be NULL
So I must provide created value in fixtures or there is an other way?
You can use pre_save signal to process loaddata(fixtures)
def pre_save_for_conference_code_fixture(sender, instance, **kwargs):
if kwargs['raw']:
instance.updated_at = timezone.now()
if not instance.id:
instance.created_at = timezone.now()
