You can use this function to change an admin option dynamically.
For example, you can add a custom callable to *list_display* based on request, or if the current user has required permissions, as in the example below:
class MyAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
list_display = ('__unicode__', 'other_field')
def changelist_view(self, request, extra_context=None):
if request.user.is_superuser:
add_dynamic_value(self, 'list_display', my_custom_callable)
return super(MyAdmin, self).changelist_view(request, extra_context)
- admin
- list_display
- list_filter
This function takes a pattern with groups and replaces them with the given args and/or kwargs. Example:
IMPORTANT: this code is NOT to use replacing Django's reverse function. The example below is just to illustrate how it works.
For a given pattern '/docs/(\d+)/rev/(\w+)/', args=(123,'abc') and kwargs={}, returns '/docs/123/rev/abc/'.
For '/docs/(?P<id>\d+)/rev/(?P<rev>\w+)/', args=() and kwargs={'rev':'abc', 'id':123}, returns '/docs/123/rev/abc/' as well.
When both args and kwargs are given, raises a ValueError.
