filter by is_active boolean field in django

Viewed 4821

I want to have an is_active field for all the models in my application and when ever I create an api, I want to filter only the active ones and send the response. Is there a generic way to do this? As of now I am keeping a boolean field is_active and every time I retrieve the objects, I am writing a filter. below is the code :

My models.py

class Crew(models.Model):
    crew_id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
    crew_code = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=False, unique=True)
    crew_name = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=False)
    crew_password = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=False)
    is_active = models.BooleanField(default=True)

My views.py :

@api_view(['GET'])
def get_crews(request):
    c = Crew.objects.filter(is_active=True)
    serializer = CrewSerializer(c, many=True)
    return Response(serializer.data, status=status.HTTP_200_OK)

Please note that if you have additional Model Managers:

The first manager listed in the model class definition is the one that is used for the admin site and a number of other operations.
