When I inherit from admin.ModelAdmin, in history on admin page I can see what fields has been changed. However, now I need to use django-simple-history to track all my model changes. Now, for admin, I inherit for simple_history.SimpleHistoryAdmin. Whilst I can see all of the model changes and revert them, I cannot see, which fields were changed. Is it possible to add that handy functionality to SimpleHistoryAdmin?
What you need is history_list_display
field in your Admin. The list of fields included in the history_list_display
will be displayed in the history page with their corresponding entries.
Something like this:
class SomeAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
def some_user_defined(self, obj):
return "something"
date_hierarchy = 'created_at'
search_fields = ['field1', 'field2']
list_display = ('field1', 'field2',)
list_filter = ('field1',)
history_list_display = ('field1', 'field2', 'some_user_defined',)
This will display field1
, field2
along with comment
, user
and reason
